Actually, they are being a bit more honest and it’s called “cultural anxiety,” now. I’m not joking.

It’s almost as if the white unemployment rate of 4.3% (as of the first quarter of this year) isn’t almost literally half of the black unemployment rate of 8.1%.

I see “economic anxiety” is still prevalent in white America despite the election of Donald Trump. Interesting.

I will always have respect for that man because of the way he stood up to Bill Maher and Sam Harris.

My parents aren’t even divorced and that’d be good to know.

I’m not going to post them here but a quick check of the Google machine brings up multiple pictures of Obama hung in effigy, some even burning. Somehow I doubt anyone on the right was all verklempt over Sasha and Malia seeing numerous images of their dad being murdered over the years.

I’m sure Donald was really concerned about Sasha and Malia’s emotional well being when he was peddling his birther bullshit for eight years.

Thank you for sharing. We lost our son to cystic fibrosis in 2009. When the time came and the doctors told us that there was nothing more to be done, we didn’t hesitate with withdraw care. It was heartbreaking and the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but to have tried to prolong things would have been selfish and…

I, too, have had to choose to end my child’s life - in my case, to turn off the machines. In a week it will have been 17 years, and I still can’t think of it too closely. I share your pain, and I send you love.

I cannot imagine having to go through that. I’m glad you made it through that for your daughter.

This is one of the best comments I have ever read on Jezebel. You’re an amazing parent and my heart breaks for you.

Well I straight cried at this at my desk. <3

There is one other point that should be addressed. Take a look at a US police officer in almost any jurisdiction standing at ease. If he gets into “a situation”, what’s the first tool at his disposal his hand touches?

Yeah, like...if I’m going to break protocol, I’m going for an elbow, pinioning arms, etc., before I go for a gun.

Of course they’re outraged at the indictment.

Right. And of course the top comments about the situation on Jez are liberals rushing to smell their own farts and talk about “how out of line” Griffin was as if three alt-right trolls didn’t just FUCKING MURDER minorities and white anti-racists within the span of one week.

Seriously, this pathetic sanctimony made my eyes roll back so far in my head I think I just gave myself a TBI.

Yup, her fans won’t care and I agree with mediumrarefied, she shouldn’t have apologized. They can suck that shit up, like they laughed off all the threats and bullshit regarding Obama. They set a precedent of making that shit okay, but now want to act horrified. Deal with it.

This Kathy Griffin situation has had me seething and is a prime example of why I’m hesitant to identify as a liberal/Democrat despite my politics aligning with them.

It’s unclear what will come of the investigation (though my guess is “not much”)
