For me, it’s just that the ongoing Charlottesville car killer’s trial brings up unpleasant memories of just how little it takes to violently disrupt the lives of public protesters. ...and possibly get away with it by claiming self defense. My main fear now is one of these MOB OF DOMESTIC TERRORIST jackasses going out…

I fear the coming alt-right backlash/violence, and hope the protestors involved make it out successfully.

I don’t know what is going on with you, PETA. The way you keep amplifying your hyperbole in defense of protecting animals is bordering on hysterical propaganda at this point.

...at this point, is anyone really going to be surprised anymore by anything short of a literal slaughterhouse being involved somehow?

This is too insidious not to acknowledge.

For once, I feel more annoyed than angry; I’m also not getting that usual sense of hopelessness I’ve been getting for the past 2 years. I mean, that’s definitely some lazy, zero-effort racism there at work, completely undone after a single day. That’s the best that vandal could do, even with this ‘emboldened’ BS you…

Neat!

I hope that she is tried, convicted, and - most importantly! - turned into a lesson that keeps it all from happening again.

daaaawwwww... This is the story I needed to read after a, uh, weird week of news. Thank you very much for sharing it, and here’s to your daughter (*lifts invisible glass of nightly tea*) having a memory like this to share too.

Neither needed to die, and now they’re dead. I’m saddened and disgusted by both.

Sad thing is, this is probably right.

Yeesh. Thinking back on it, I only had one black teacher that I can recall, in high school (I think there were... four black staff members total there?), and that’s in line with the demographics and era. Not a great pipeline back then, where I lived.

Cui bono? ...nemo.

Does... he not know about Voice of America at all?

MH: Wait—you have a child grandchild?

“moo”

...And if they don’t like it, they can hitchhike.

I’ve... been staring at that last move all day, and I can’t see a move for White that’s viable. And I know I’m a barely a novice, but still - I’d take the draw.

Feel like there’s a joke to be made here about music from a movie that’s as close to Metal Gear Solid as we’re gonna get, added to a commercial about a bunch of sneaky cardboard boxes.
