Which jury would you rather be on:

A lot of his rhetoric was needlessly inflammatory, but, c’mon, Vel, when someone asks you for a citation for a specific statistic (one which is at the core of the point you’re making), it’s not really cool to insist it’s not your responsibility to support it.

That argument never ceases to baffle me.
“Hey, the living room is on fire!!”
“Oh my god! I guess we better set the bedrooms on fire too!”

Hahahaha I had to double check this one just to be sure. The fact that it is entirely plausible that he could’ve written this is disturbing...

Someone’s fucking with you. The last two sentences are made up.

fuck you we’re taking your guns

IS THE GUN OK?

That’s because all our D&Ds are owned by immigrant families. 

There sure as fuck wouldn’t be children being held in cages right now under HRC. We probably wouldn’t have to break our dialing fingers calling our elected leaders and begging them not to kill us by trashing our healthcare under HRC. We probably wouldn’t have to worry about the Supreme Court being populated by nothing…

I’m actually sick of allowing Trump voters this bullshit distinction. They may want to tell themselves they’re not racists, but Trump was running an explicitly racist campaign. When someone characterises Mexicans as rapists and murderers, promises to round up and deport all Muslims (which, let’s be real, means brown…

You’re goddamn right I’ve got a lot of hate in me right now! Have you been paying any amount of attention to what’s going on as a direct result of that piece of shit becoming president? Yeah, these idiots are allowed to be pissed. And I’m allowed to be pissed at them for contributing to the fucking nightmare we’re all…

Well, the central message of Trump’s campaign was that we needed to build a wall along the southern border to keep out hordes of Mexican rapists, so if these Americans believed this is what would “help their family,” rather than Hillary’s proposed jobs program and infrastructure development, I’m sorry to say it, but…

Well then it sounds like you need the reminder, because you implied that everybody pissed off at Obama enough to vote for Trump did so just because the economy wasn’t growing fast enough for them. As a side note, you’re ignoring a crucial point in this discussion: Obama inherited the worst economic recession in two…

It’s weird how often “average person” means white.

Fox at the Hen house? That always goes well.

Pedantic pushing-my-glasses-up-my-nose note: Frankenstein’s original readers lived in the Regency period, not the Victorian period. It is interesting how often the monster is lumped in with later horror creations, though - I’m looking at you, Penny Dreadful.

Stupid lobsters. Everyone knows that when you’re dealing with the devil you have to say “eternal youth,” not “immortality”.

and, what’s more, i was fundamentally, astronomically wrong. I dont want to do that again. I hate that part of my history, i hate defending anyone like that thinking they’re innocent when they’re not. so yeah.

That was born from my inability to accept that Louis CK did some fucked up shit. Rumors for years circulated and were repeatedly denied and then suddenly, a week after i went off on Katie Rife here for her Tig article in regards to CK, it was confirmed so while i believed women as a rule before then, now i just…
