McConnell’s day so far:

-Figured out way to get people off of his ass about an issue he does not actually consider an “issue”
-Gives “issue” to token black man.
-Can now claim he tried to do something about “issue”
-Has established a scapegoat when resolution to “issue” never materializes.
-Goes back to transferring…

This is good council.

I was gonna say, land agreements with Native Americans were violated quicker than they could be signed, and eminent domain has been used to pave over countless minority neighbourhoods, but suddenly a deed for a statue is impossible to get out of?

All you need is some rope and a truck. Those things are copper. Copper is not that strong.

Based on history and experience, having the police ( and police adjacent entities) investigate the police does not evoke confidence, trust or truth. Not allowing popo to investigate popo should be among the many necessary reforms. Its way past time...

I think it's time for P-G writers to do a full Deadspin. 

Oh, are we honoring hundred year old government agreements with the people?!

Has William C. Gregory been asleep under a willow tree by a babbling brook for 130 years? Oh, shit. Well, let me catch him up.

So every Black family needs a contact list of good attorneys with a multi-faceted crew of hotshot researchers, forensic pathologists, PR folks with specialization in social justice org networks and social media expertise, and a huge network of family and friends ready to mobilize at a moment’s notice to even hope to…

Land grants to the State cannot abrogate or interfere with the State’s inherent police powers. The statue meets the definition of an attractive nuisance and blight and it is the State’s duty to mitigate that public safety and health hazard.

So pretty much people can wait ages for it to make it though the courts or they can take action and someone can hotwire a bulldozer and ram the fucker until it is gone. I’m starting to see a pattern among local mayors and cities. Plus, there’s always the tears of the inbred following, along with nonsensical gibbering…

So ... ignorant of the perils of social media AND a racist? A bifecta!

“The Pittsburgh City Paper, citing numbers provided by the Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh, reports that 82 people have been banned from covering the protests, which have pushed for massive, systemic changes to policing.”

82? Shiit, that’s enough people to start a whole new media outlet.

Definitely sounds like a good place for the next set of protests.

Also, since when are 95% of crimes punishable by death? Even if these people were guilty, the sentence would’ve been something like “30 days” or “$100" and not “slowly bleeding to death.”

It’s about denying the victim is actually human...de-humanization of a person is why that fucker had absolutely no problem keeping his knee (while people videoed no less) on George Floyd‘s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds.

This is equivalent to saying “No good cop has been killed by civilians.” This nonsense coupled with that dolt in office’s comment about George Floyd are reprehensible. You’d think with all this stuff going on, the GOP in the WH would pull the plug on him because this is getting deeper. I mean, the Pentagon decided to…

It’s about denying a human their due process. It’s not up to the general public or the police to be the judge and jury of an offender or victim. Taking someone’s life based on your fuck boi opinion is murder. Plain and simple.

Good.
