It’s not a matter of opinion. “Terrorism” has a specific definition.

Of course terrorism is defined by the intent of the person who committed the act. The unabomber=terrorist, he had specific political reasons for what he did. The Columbine shooters on the other hand weren’t terrorists, they had no agenda beyond killing people

Can you point to a specific instance where it was coopted for a brown person doing something bad? I can’t think of any recent mass shooting by a person of color that was called terrorism that wasn’t in fact terrorism.

If they’re not looking into possible ways to punish people, why are they even requesting this data? You really want the DOJ snooping around about you because you liked a political web page and you don’t think anything negative could come of that?

So he’s not the kind of player to intentionally let the ball hit the ump, but he’s the kind of player who’s is so incompetent at his job of catching that he whiffs completely on a pitch that’s over the plate?

If it were a real gun it would not be ok to be pointing at people, so no, it wouldn’t have been perfectly legal.

“It’s tragic, and the policing was incompetent and should’ve resulted in manslaughter charges imo.” not exactly seeing how you’re adding to what I already said

While the overall point stands, I don’t think it’s helpful to say she was “no more innocent” than Tamir Rice. They aren’t really comparable situations. “Innocent” is subjective, but Tamir Rice legitimately had a fake gun and had the police called about him. He was just playing with it, and it wasn’t really illegal,…

The whole “babip” 100 points higher is highly misleading, his BABIP in 2015 was .232! For a speedy, line drive type hitter who ran babips in the upper 300s in the minors, the .232 was a clear aberration. It’s not like the guy came out of nowhere, he hit .354 in A-ball as a 19-year-old (something Cleveland never does…

“How could Uber drivers possibly be employees if they are using their own cars and working their own hours?” Because there’s a lot more to it than that in determining whether a work is an employee or independent contractor. I mean, multiple court cases have gone against Uber already in this regard, so to pretend that…

It’s actually not illegal for two 13-year-olds to have sex in most states. Most states have “romeo and juliet” provisions to their statutory rape laws, that make exceptions for kids who are close enough in age. Like in PA, the age of consent is 16, but for 13-15 years olds, as long as they’re less than 4 years apart…

Choo for Ben Broussard was a pretty sweet deal. And Asdrubal Cabrera for Broussard’s platoon-mate.

Which I would think they would be perfectly allowed to run him over, since he was trying to kill them with a gun?

To be fair, those slides from Odor were from previous years when hard slides were allowed. Now that blatantly taking a guy out results in an out, it’s no longer a play that helps your team and is just a dick move
