Oh, they should realize it.

I want to know when the men who attacked Deandre Harris are going to be arrested. I’ve seen headlines that people have been named and that the process will take a bit because they’re out of state residents, but damn. Seems like it’s been long enough.

Imagine Dances With Wolves meets Captain Planet . . . in Space! and you’ve pretty much got it. It was pretty, but the story was stupid.

I agree, and also I’m definitely using the “Grand Dildo of the KKK” in the future. Their stupid titles have always seemed to me like the perfect example of how pathetically weak they actually are, while longing to appear strong.

What I want to know is, what about the guy who got beaten in the parking garage? I keep waiting to see the headlines that his attackers have been arrested, but I haven’t seen anything.

There’s another level of this too. For instance, take my friend’s dad, who I am friends with on FB mostly just to keep an eye on what nutjobs are up to these days (though I have hidden him periodically because I. just. can’t.) Soon after Charlottesville, he posted something that was anti-Nazi (and pro-US military,…

I’ve been thinking, what if we show up, but turn our backs to them? No interaction, no slogans, just ostentatiously ignoring them?

I guess I’m lucky that I don’t want him to be a martyr, so I’ve only publicly hoped that his heart finally has enough of the fried chicken and does us a solid.

Thanks! That was great.

What is this from?

Look at that header image of poor George Washington looking over 45's shoulder like, “This motherfucker? You have GOT to be kidding me.”

Wait, is that a real statue? Was it the work of an enthusiastic amateur?

That swastika/45 image is just, just, perfection.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH

Unlike peaceful protests where you see a mix of men and women (and children too, for that matter), these guys came armed and ready to fight. So it’s not surprising that there would be fewer women than usual. It wasn’t a peaceful protest that went wrong, it was a planned riot.

I don’t remember, actually. I was a kid when it all happened, so I didn’t find out all the details until I was a teen, plus they lived out of state and we didn’t see them often. I do know that he ended up marrying the best friend and had 2 or 3 more kids with her. But though their romance had such a promising…

I feel like it’s really, really not too much to ask. Just some basic human decency.

This reminds me of the time my great-uncle’s first wife was babysitting her best friend’s new baby every day . . . only to find out great-uncle was the father. Way to go, great-uncle! Cheating on your wife with her best friend is bad enough, but then getting her to unknowingly provide daycare for the baby takes…

True. So, I can imagine that the writers mike make some plausible scenario where the emancipated slaves might end up with their own nation carved out of the south. It would be interesting to see how that nation might have developed. The economic dealings between them and the rest of the US alone would be interesting,…

Is there anything that more clearly sums up human nature? “Look! A thing of unearthly beauty! Let’s KILL IT.”
