Check out this recent coup by the Austin PD who bagged a guy who was kidnapping women off the street and raping them...

Street harassment, if it’s only name calling, is protected under the First Amendment. For example, you’re allowed to say, “Hello, I believe you’re a ni**er,” to a black person. However, you are NOT allowed to write the N-word on or her his lawn.

No- most men would be okay with this. Beating up a woman because she’s a woman should be a hate crime. Calling a woman a sexist name on the street- deplorable as it is- would be protected under the First Amendment.

About as bad as people in Britain felt before the Brexit vote. We’re hoping we don’t go the way of Britain.

Thank you, Captain obvious. However, being a sociopath, like Trump, isn’t so common. Which is why he’s so dangerous.

You seem to think that calling him a sociopath who has complete disdain for the human race isn’t “calling shit for what it is.” Not everything in this world boils down to some paradigm of either “racist” or “woke.” Sociopaths like Trump are off the charts. This is hardly letting him off the hook.

Yes, a sociopath will do anything to achieve his ends, including discrimination.

Trump discriminated against blacks in New York at the exact same time that he was desegregating a country club in Palm Beach. He’s a sociopath who will enact whatever policy is necessary in order to serve his twisted interests. Calling him a simple “racist” minimizes just how dangerous he is.

Calling a “psychopath” a “sociopath” isn’t giving him the benefit of the doubt. Likewise, calling Trump a nihilistic sociopath rather than a racist is hardly excusing him. Rather, it’s a very precise way of explaining to undecided voters why he’s so dangerous. A man who has contempt for the entire human race is…

If you’re so anti-intellectual as to not care about the differences between a “psychopath” and a “sociopath” then that’s fine. I believe it’s a conversation worth having when we have two months to convince undecided voters why Trump is truly dangerous.

Calling a murderous psychopath a murderous sociopath is not letting him off the hook by any stretch, nor is it “playing a game.” Rather, it’s defining him in a different- perhaps more dangerous- light.

Some police departments suck.

A sociopath who has contempt for the entire human race will say racist things if it serves him.

Very possibly a sociopath who has contempt for the entire human race.

Trump appears to to a sociopath who has contempt for the entire human race. Meaning, I don’t believe he’d hesitate to nuke Ukraine -or Mosul-if it helped him in the polls.

There is a difference between a psychopath and a sociopath. In the same way, there is a difference between a racist and a narcissistic opportunist who views the entire human race with contempt and will screw anybody to serve his needs. Trump appears to fit into the latter category in both examples.

Your last two sentences proved my point.

Actually, you have a very derivative view of Trump that doesn’t quite do justice to just how dangerous he is.

It’s terrible when police departments don’t do their jobs.

Read this article, where the police in Austin did some amazing work in catching a serial rapist.
