Every time I see Harry Connick Jr I remember his father is a piece of shit who put at least 19 men away (most of them on death row) for shit they didn’t do, knowing they had evidence that would have exonerated them.

People skim read and are racist or at least people who aren’t racist but thought that are conditioned to believe that they are the default so they think the character must be white.

I watch it all from afar and think the faster the ANC splits into constituent parts and the country develops a more balanced parliament the better you’ll be. No state can function well with single party rule, no incentive to change anything or help anyone as they’ll still be voted in.

This is exactly it.

you really don’t need more people that racist. Eurgh, probably one of the most racist populations I’ve met, up there with Eastern Europe.

Holland or Britain but mostly Holland.

It’s funny because Charlize Theron grew up in a trailer in Afrikaner poverty she just got out.

Jaywalking is the dumbest crime. Why is it illegal? it doesn’t keep anyone safer. People will cross an empty road when they have opportunity and it’s fine. Sure not crossing at the light is more dangerous but making it illegal not to changes nothing. It’s criminalising pedestrians and allowing drivers who are the…

I went. It was a bad decision. -3 and snowing. Left at 70 minutes

I watched it all absentmindedly today and the tone never balances. The two leads tones do not mesh. It’s just ok and that is ok.

One of the things I love about the BBC is you can get every event online if you want and they profile some of the big international stars. Sure they focus way too much on our own but every country will do that to an extend.

I read a really good article how the kids tweeting and snapcatting what was happening has helped quell a lot of the false flag shit. How can people look at the tweets and the videos and the released text conversations and think it’ all fake?

All national broadcasters hype their own but it’s what they do around that which matters. The Olympics is about the world coming together.

It really doesn’t. Not to the same degree. You can walk into a school and shoot 20+ of your classmates in 5-10 minutes. You can’t do the same with a knife.

Actually it’s probably easier to stop broken people from getting a weapon they can cause mass murder with.

Jesus just get to 20k per year and go from there. That’s a darn sight better already. Then work on 10k, then 5k. Just keep fucking working. Hell see if you can save 100 extra people a year it’s a start not a great one but a start.

but if you can’t fix EVERYTHING why try and stop anything

but if you can’t fix EVERYTHING why try and stop anything

the criminals will get them too argument blows my mind because the UK has very very strict gun laws and yeah sometimes criminals get guns but what rarely happens is people who were never criminals get them and shoot up multiple people (it has happened like 3 times in 30+ years).

I just fell into an argument on twitter with a guy whose only argument was “well cars kill 33k+ a year” but could not answer to the fact that that is 14.9% down since 1979 because of regulations being tougher, introductions of seatbelts, airbags and other thing to make cars safer and more laws governing speeding,…
