Saw the video, he did in fact grab the taser after fighting with the officers, then fired it at one of the officers. This one seems a bit different than what happened to George Floyd. Shooting him with a gun however... Still hard to justify that one.

I don’t think he was in the parking lot, he was parked in the drive-thru, likely blocking other customers.

This is why their apologies ring hollow. They don’t know why they’re apologizing. In their minds, they’re thinking “we don’t hate black people, we weren’t trying to get her in trouble because she’s black!” instead of realizing that they 1) associated a black woman with stealing and 2) saw a picture of a black woman on…

Schroeder and Doute are only speaking out because they lost sponsors aka income. They don’t care. They’re terrible people. Neither one of them has actually apologized privately/directly to Faith (according to Faith, who is the only believable person in this situation). They not only called the police on her, they…

It’s extremely telling to me that no one has responded to you here.  We can see VERY clearly where the navel-gazing is coming from and it is completely worthless.  People are dying.  Fucking hell.  Lecture about fucking pronouns LATER.

Hi!

Even then, it doesn’t matter. This past weekend, I had to wait in line to enter a retail store and one of the teenagers in front of me was told by the manager letting people in to put on her face covering(she had a scarf around her neck) and the teenager proceeded to try to blah blah blah her way out of it. The…

There’s been a sea change in the American public mind over the past few decades in that empathy seems to have completely disappeared from the conservative personality. It was never one of the conservative’s strong suits, but since Regan it has become increasingly rare. Add to this an overall American ideological shift…

Ignore it and stew inside? That’s not the way of New York. That’s some southern passive aggressive BS of the “bless your heart” variety. 

A sign at the door is nonsense. Those are put up so that the store owners don’t look bad. No one is paying attention to those. And unfortunately most stores can;t afford to have a person dedicated to policing code.

I understand as I work healthcare. I see how little the general public concerns themselves with anything that compromises their beliefs or standards.

Our County, in California, is ultra conservative and they are fighting everything that makes common sense. I am meeting with the Board President tomorrow to knock some sense into her and am going to share your post with her. 

The anti-mask, “reopen now!” people aren’t wrong because of their tactics, they’re wrong on substance.

I’ve posted elsewhere here that I’m in grad school for my MPH and currently taking a class on public health law. My professor noted in a lecture that the public backlash against quarantine is upending centuries of legal thought and decades of academic instructions, since quarantine has always been looked at as almost…

THIS is the shit I often miss about living in New York. The absolutely terrifying ability of a group of people to call someone out and tear a new one. It has its downsides, but man...it is effective. 

Sorry I can no longer laugh at the actions and the foolishness of these Karen’s, Taylor’s, Dalton’s, Breleigh’s, Hailey’s and other fucked up damaged people that are damaging us. Why do I no longer find humor in their reckless, blatant lack of give a shit? Because assholes like this vote, they breed and they appear to…

Clearing the GOP didn’t think the election through. Their base is the most vulnerable group thus they were relying on them sacrificing their health, waiting in lines for hours in the inclimate weather.

The republican party wants to kill people. They have to be punished for it and not just at the ballot box. Lock them up.
