I’m not sure why anyone who’s involved in the transport of persons in custody would have a gun on them. It seems like a recipe for this kind of thing. There should be maybe one guy with a shotgun who stands off at a distance, and everyone else armed with batons and maybe Tasers.

Dang it I cannot find the original. “What I imagine people say when they offer up thoughts and prayers”

zero days since our last nonsense. SIGH.

Reset the clock.

Fuck it...fuck it...so fucking done with all this. Every week, every day, nothing changes. People keep dying senselessly, nothing gets done, nothing changes. Meanwhile some muppet that’s been left in an oven is running for president. Just fuck it.

I wonder if there will be thoughts and/or prayers offered up.

I came here to say basically that you can’t complain when you attempt to torture a dangerous animal to death and it shoves a horn through your vital organs but nothing I planned to say was as offensive as your “translation”

Coger is slang for fuck in Latin America, not Spain. Cogido in this context means gored, caught, grabbed.

If you ever want to stop someone from clicking on a link to one of your stories I would say that putting “they were red like raw hamburger” in the title of some story on Roger Ailes and sexual harassment would be right up there.

Or Tamir Rice, a child with a toy who was killed because to police he apparently looked like a man with a gun, in an open carry state. I’m still waiting for them to stand up for him.

“As the nation’s largest and oldest civil rights organization...”

The NRA statement doesn’t even use Philandro Castile’s name. What a remarkable crock of shit.

Also: Wayne LaPierre is a career lobbyist who doesn’t give a fuck about civil rights, and probably never fired a gun before being hired by the NRA.

If what happened to Philando Castile happened to a white gun owner (yes, I know, huge leap of imagination necessary to picture that), the NRA would be protesting 24/7 at the police station, the governor’s office, and the home of the police officer involved.

Meanwhile, everyone left is all like:
