“Indigenous People’s Day” is a dumb virtue signaling non-holiday.

Yes, only big brother government knows what’s best for us. So we outlaw smoking....but make a big push to legalize pot. Oh wait...it is just like Bill Clinton’s experience...he didn’t inhale.

“She played a threatening voicemail that she says is part of an influx of death threats and nasty messages since Boebert’s story caught steam.”

Openly racist members of the House should probably refrain from criticizing other openly racist members of the same legislature.  It’s a no win for all.

I agree with this, Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler should be stripped and censured as well for the made up Russia story. 

I would never be brave enough to do what Jussie did. He put his personal freedom at stake and shined a light into some dark corners that need cleaning. In a way, I’m proud of him. Because it doesn’t necessarily matter that this event didn’t happen. It matters that it could happen. That’s the real issue here. So…

...and there’s no garuntee he don’t be oversentenced.

I think hes trying to create the possibility that he knew them but wasn’t in on the plan. “Like I had a business and personal relationship with one brother but the other was sketchy and might have convinced him to rob me. I originally thought the dudes who jumped me were white cuz they yelled this is Maga Country.”…

When she shaves her head, multiple sites will write about how “empowering” it is for her to shave her head. She’ll be fine.

It isn’t just conservatives contributing to this problem though. You can see it right here on Gizmodo, and even more on its sister-sites, everyone’s in favor of leniency and non-custodial sentences until it’s somebody they don’t like.

If the police just stop showing up to an area when called then the crimes in that area will stop showing up in the stats and the algorithms will stop predicting crime in those areas.

That is obviously insane... but that really seems to be what many people would prefer.

The problem with that cartoon, of course, is that the sign that protestor is holding is still dumb until all (or most of) those things around the police actually work... and some of those things only ever seem to work on paper.

It’s akin to the problem you run in to with just about any overly simplistic “just do this…

First of all, as a black man, a hood and robe just ain’t my style.

Once you realize that people are deciding to live in a fantasy world, alot of this craziness in the world today more sense.

There’s nothing racist about pointing out that statistically, kids from two-parent homes are more likely to be successful in life. Neither is it racist to point out that statistically, Black children are dramatically more likely to be born to single moms.

We don’t help these kids if we ignore the data—and if we don’t…

Logic isn’t really The Root’s strong suit is it?  This orange tastes like an orange!  Therefore this apple must taste like an orange too!  Strong argument you guys make here.  Let her go!  We don’t really need a trial do we?  

Wow! What a savagely irresponsible article. There is really no comparison between Rittenhouse and Miss Kizer’s very unfortunate situation. And to compare the Rittenhouse verdict with what may or may not happen to Kizer is just leading the gullible down a very dangerous path.

Not since the days of Gawker and its commentariat jerking off at every utterance of Ta-Nehisi Coates have I seen people get so excited over such a mediocrity as they do over Stacey Abrams.

What about justice for the victims killed by Darrell Brooks in that parade attack ??
