That goes to show you how ingrained their bigotry is. They really thought this video was going to justify their actions even though it did the exact opposite.

While it will never bring back Ahmaud Arbery, there is a little bit of schadenfreude when it comes to William Bryan effectively incriminating himself and the McMichaels by filming the shooting.
Arbery’s father, Marcus Arbery Sr., was asked to leave the courtroom after the first verdict was read. He shouted “Woohoo!” after hearing the first guilty count of the man who shot his son
Me too. After the rittenhouse verdict I thought these guys would get off too.
Same. When I was kid we’d wander into in-progress builds, and adults would do it, too. I don’t think it occurred to anyone that this was a crime. People would wander in out of curiosity, and see how the build was going
Emmett Till’s mother never got to see anyone punished for his murder and torture. Arbery’s mother gets to see the fuckers behind bars. As it should be. Next up, remove all the laws (like citizen’s arrest) and institutional privileges that allow white men to act as judge, jury and executioner in this country. So that p…
I’m just shocked that white men were convicted in Georgia.
Yeah, we did this as teens all the time. It was the 90s and we were basically the human equivalent of free-range chickens. There were three different developments being built around ours, and we would walk through the in-progress houses regularly. I think that about every time Ahmaud Arbery’s case was back in the…
Sure these three will make friends in prison
Exactly. Batting :500 is not good in these scenarios. All 4 should be shitting themselves behind bars. Unfortunately, one is free and even meeting with the former President. Not shocking...they’re both racists.
No, it doesn’t feel like justice, but it still feels far better than the Rittenhouse verdict. That’s all I got for now.
Everyone in this movie is trying so hard to make the movie this deep, profound piece of Oscar-worthy entertainment, yet they all come off as eager high school drama club members who think they’re getting into Julliard.
I don’t know how anyone could watch the trailer and thought House of Gucci was going to be a good movie. It looks bad but in a fun camp sort of way.
... they don’t want to harm children. I think you missed the whole point of this research.
“I don’t think it should be a struggle not to drink. We should help the victims of drunk drivers instead.”
It really does work on women with a lot of internalized misogyny, though - this is where the “pick-me” stereotype (in today’s parlance) comes from. It worked on me when I was in high school/college.
Most comments on this site are terrible, but this one is pretty good.
“What makes a female high-maintenance, versus what makes a male high-maintenance?”
Yes, tearing down my entire gender but making me the “exception” is totally going to get you in my pants.
Yeah- all the Italian accents in the trailer are very unnecessary! They would be speaking Italian to each other!
