A lot of those tests can’t tell the difference completely between Ashkenazi Jewish and Native American in their results. Larry David did one on tv and was told he was like 37% Native American and his mother was born in what is now Ukraine and his father’s family emigrated in the late 19th century. He’s 97% Ashkenazi.

Part of the answer is also that these big stories and roles for black actors are not being produced here in the UK. These actors are talented and ambitious and the roles that match that are in the US. There is a failure in the UK to tell black stories and to push forward the deep pool of young black talent.

He underestimates our ability to hate multiple men at the same time.

Point is doesn’t matter if its a crime or not, she still killed him. It’s not alleged. She has admitted she shot him dead. He is dead due to her actions. She killed him. The criminality is a different argument.

I get the OP’s point though she didn’t “reportedly” or “allegedly” kill him. She plain killed him. Whatever crime that will end with her charged with down the line, she still definitely killed him.

I got burgled two months ago, 11pm and I was in. I disturbed him when I turned on my hall light to see what the noise was. He ran. The police sent a guy to fingerprint, dude had been wearing gloves so no prints just loads of fucking black dust everywhere. They closed the case in a week.

“without premeditation, but with malice aforethought.”

I believe two randos especially if they are just two women who share a place and heard the same thing.

Rep is my union’s term for shop stewards so yeah I’m a shop steward. I mostly do corporate policy work because my background is politics and other reps do more casework stuff.

This actually happened to me about 2 months ago. I was on my bed at 11pm and there were noises. I interrupted a burglar who was in my house. He ran. But neither of us have guns because i live in a country with sensible gun laws and no one died. I mean fuck, he took my travelcard and my prescription sunglasses and…

I 100% agree. I was burgled about two months ago. I was chilling in bed about 11pm, I have just moved in so my front garden is a mess of boxes and this guy probably thought my house was empty and he could score some tools. I turned on the light and came down stairs and he ran. The reason I could even consider turning…

I started my new job and after a little while realised I needed my union’s help because my role was undergraded. I and my Brach Secretary got my job upgraded (bastards kept me on the spinal point, now bottom of a scale not middle but same money) and the Secretary asked if I’d be willing to be a rep and I said “hell…

Police Unions are very very good at representing their members. The issue is they don’t seem to care if the members are worth representing. I’m a Union rep and I’ve been told if your member is lying or doing things that are illegal walk away and don’t represent them.

to me even if her new story is 100% the truth it’s just detail it’s not good enough reason. She didn’t have a good reason to shoot without identifying herself, without seeing what or who was in the apartment.

Sounds like the cop didn’t say anything at all just walked into his apartment and shot him dead.

The rules of tennis don’t cover the fact she has always faced harsher punishment than her peers and she’s right female players seem to get worse treatment than the men. The men are expected to talk back and be aggressive but the women aren’t and are punished if they do. Serena is punished worse than the other women so…

I don’t think she’s disconnected from being Haitian, being Japanese or being American (as she was raised there). She’s a really great up and coming player and I hope she continues to do well.

With you 100%

This isnt an incidence that that clause should cover,. She killed a man off the clock in her apartment building. I’m a union rep and work (obviously not for cops) and it’s insane to me that the union should have anything to do with this. She was not working, she was not a cop in that moment. She was a person who…

What I don’t get is this can be treated as an “officer involved shooting” per the contracts? She was off duty, in uniform or not she shouldn’t be treated like something happened at work (which is what officer involved shooting investigations are, something that happened at work.
