If the compensation committee were the Goonies, Jerry Jones was Josh Brolin’s character.

No, you definitely got that part, but must have missed the next few pages where things like Union troops in the South and the Enforcement Acts provided a period of significant rise in African-American power in the southern states! These were policies pushed directly by Lincoln’s followers to both elevate the condition…

The variable size of the pie doesn’t mean a fucking thing if the richest fraction of a percent of people keep taking half of it before the rest of us even see it.

Of course. NYC’s population is 8.5 million. Plus, New York Post outsells the Daily News and Bernie Goetz was a folk hero and NYPD gets away with what it does for a reason (and Trump’s campaign against the Central Park Five got traction because there was a willing audience). It’s just that working class whites are…

I have a slightly more practical suggestion: require courts to treat any unsubstantiated statement by public officials as more likely to be false than not. If police can’t defend themselves against accusations by relying on the weight on their testimony alone, and if that testimony can’t be used to secure convictions,…

I keep hearing about how only a small percentage of cops are problems, and that on the whole, they’re no worse than the general population. This is bullshit.

I think that’s the point. If the driver had been black, there’s a good chance this would have ended much worse than it did.

Thats kind of the definition of White Privilege.

This cop is a lying piece of shit.

It isn’t needless.

I’m sure Bob McNair is encouraging his coaching staff to look at Kaepernick as a replacement...

Whoever selected the header image for this story should be very proud of themselves.

Even if it’s not racist, it clearly indicates he does not view players as his equal.

Even if McNair had chosen a less offensive metaphor to express his point, it’s still fucked up: The players are BUSINESS PARTNERS, not children or inmates or any other subjugated form of person who does not have autonomy over their own actions.

Yeah I’ve been replaying some shitty behavior in my 20s in my mind. I was pushy at times. I never ignored a hard no, but I did try to get people to change minds, stuff like that. I feel a little sick thinking about it, and I wish I knew then what I know now.

These are questions I would really like answered. More than I’d like to admit, I know I put a handful of women in uncomfortable situations (by being too grabby). There are no excuses for my actions, and they leave me petrified and sad for those who I may have hurt. I reached out to one particular person to apologize.…

It certainly did me. It has forced me to re-evaluate a lot of my previous interactions with women. It has also made me realize I need to be exceedingly proactive in teaching my son about consent, boundaries, accountability, etc.

I think it’s important for all men to be a little critical about their sexual pasts,

David Cross reminds me of when Liz Lemon goes to her high school reunion on 30 Rock. She doesn’t want to go because she was an awkward geek that nobody liked.

I don’t read Barstool and don’t care for anyone there other than PFTCommenter and @TylerIAm from Twitter, but every time I read one of these articles I am reminded that this site used to employ Clay Travis.
