If the best you can do is “60 years ago, we were the good guys”, it’s time to stop resting on your laurels and start fixing your party. This is especially rich coming from Ron Paul’s son, who presumably knows exactly how racist the GOP is.

He looks like a thumb.

Worse, an internal affairs cop. He’s the cop who investigate accusations of wrong doing by other cops. So if Duncan no-nuts of the police department beats the shit out of someone, this prick is the one who investigates the allegation.

School to prison pipeline. Get the poor kids, children of color, and kids with special needs all used to the idea they’ll be spending their lives in some kind of institution.

Yeah, you’re supposed to put money into the police unions so they can give it to politicians to say they oppose the police while voting for amendments that gives police in LA School police to buy grenade launchers...and rifles and tanks, for a school.

A cop using his work email to send money and encouragement to a murder suspect: priceless.

lol. He tried it.

Gupta also has a long history in TX and completely, utterly PWNING crooked, evil racist John Cornyn after he rewarded an actual mulleted cop for a massive string of arrests of black persons, a substantial part of the same small town, because she uncovered that said cop COMPLETELY MADE UP ALL THE CHARGES and lied in…

I don’t need to know anything else about Vanita Gupta other than Mitch McConnell and the GOP hate her.  That’s qualification enough for whatever post she was nominated to, in my book.  

Apparently Susan Collins is no longer even cosplaying being a moderate. I just moved to Maine, and am so excited to vote against her (5.5 years from now).

Right on, that’s a fact! Larry Cohen captured perfectly that look of the ugly, dirty, mean streets of NYC while still somehow making it feel like movie magic.

Mr. Fisher needs to learn that when everything is an outrage, nothing really gets to be an outrage.

It definitely smacks of wanting to redirect that energy toward him.

You mean how Covid itself causes weird and deadly blood clots? Along with 1/3rd of survivors being diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition months later? Yes, I’ll still take my chances with the vaccine. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/04/22/coronavirus-blood-clots/

A bittersweet day. 100% the correct verdict, and that is fantastic. But sadly, the victim will forever be lost to us.

It’s horrific, isn’t it? We’re becoming inured to mass shootings (at least 147 this year, so far, according to CNN) but a well-deserved “guilty” verdict for a public execution is a stunning surprise.

Also to get reforms and societal changes in place that keep us from being here in the first place.

Good. Is this still a white supremacist nation? Yes. Is US policing still an inherently and unreformably white supremacist institution within that white supremacist nation? Yes. Does this represent real justice? No. Can the legal structures of the US provide real justice? No, of course not. Does this country still…

This is a significant moment that will only keep its meaning if America chooses to continue accountability as a matter of course. 

Watching him get handcuffed and led away was strangely satisfying.
