Terrorists, murderers, pedophiles, etc. All people with mental disorders. Doesn’t change the fact that they are dangerous assholes and there are laws to protect society against them.

The controversy:

It doesnt destigmatize mental health to look at this man and his actions and say “he must have a mental health disorder”. It actually stigmatizes it worse because people start to think “mental illness = act in a criminal manner”.

It is not his mental health status as much as its the way that status is used to dismiss or diminish the crimes of white people.

It literally is a white man attacking a black man. The Root didn’t make it that. It is that.

Yeah, it’s not like Wheeler Dealers, where Edd China is a genuinely likeable, knowledgeable, professional, and Mike Brewer was just a trash used car salesman cliché.

Ever notice that the cable “education” channels that were touted as a market-driven replacement for PBS like History, Discovery, TLC. etc. have all turned in to homes for crappy reality shows, conspiracy theories and pseudoscience? I guess that pays better than boring old facts and science. 

Whelp, that quiz was depressing as hell. Also none of this takes into account epigenetic trauma.

Strike the first sentence and I agree 100%. Movies are not to blame for behavior so much as a historical lack of having to pay for one’s own actions. Just like movies about serial killers don’t create more serial killers, F&F is just a movie franchise and should not be used to enable anyone to externalize anyone…

They didn’t lose their lives. They were KILLED.

My internal reaction upon hearing he had been rushed to the hospital made it clear to me just how unprepared I am to live in an Odenkirkless world. The amount of shock alongside the heartbreak was like Chadwick Boseman all over again. Some people just seem like they’ll always be around.

So glad Bob’s on the mend, and…

Never lets me down.  

This whole thread has had me crying laughing for the last hour. This shit is priceless.

Let us not forget the one time it was gloriously done by proxy

He looks like a really shitty wax figure of his former self, which already looked like a shitty was figure.

I can see why Kid Rock fans love him.

that’s an insult to shit.

Came here for the dunking on Kid Rock, stayed for the adorable gay meet-cute.

He looks like the bones in his face are turning to jelly.
