Even setting aside the fact that he should have talked earlier, when it could have mattered, the main problem with this guy is that he stayed there for 17 months. So at best, everything he describes he aided and abetted, and more probably he’s simply complicit and therefore guilty.

“We’re going to see the Sick Outs and Non-response To Calls that I think the NYPD(?) threatened around the time of Ferguson.”

“As I told Mr. McCray, if I were faced with similar circumstances, I would have probably done the same thing,” the Sheriff said in a statement. “I have apologized to Mr. McCray, and I appreciate his patience as I have worked through these matters.”

Nah, the NYPD did that when people were trying to hold them accountable for murdering Eric Garner. Ironically enough, crime in the city went DOWN while all the cops threw their temper tantrum.

People keep bringing up his criminal history as if it justifies his death.

His criminal history is irrelevant. What IS relevant was the cop continuing to knee him down over a prolonged period of time preventing him from breathing, even after George clearly indicated as such, and while his colleagues stood by and did nothing.

By “controversial” you clearly mean “a joke to 99.999% of the world and offensive to 3 people.” Sort of like calling the fish sticks joke in that South Park episode “controversial.”

According to the company’s website, the Chief Hiking Officer must also be a “Creative Content Expert” who’s passionate about craft beer

I’ve been visiting the Warzone Reddit and there’s a specific post relating to this with (at the time) 47,000 upvotes and it’s just the poster scrolling through pages and pages of racist names. Pretty shocking, they should be insta banning every single one of them. 

Same. I’ve been salty all morning about companies putting out flowery statements and letting that be their “activism”. They are far more concerned with everyone knowing they have the right opinion than with actually changing anything. Activism involves sacrifice, you give up something of yours to further the cause.…

Finally, a forum for the people who say “I don’t care if you’re black, white, red, yellow, purple or green!” :)

I have never heard of this company, but I just want to say fuck yes, good for them. 

They will be turned into empty decaying buildings.

Support your local independent theater’s GoFundMe if you can, and let this shitty chain go bankrupt.

people talk a lot about social media having adverse effects on teenagers, young girls in particular. but we NEVER EVER talk about the dogshit effects it seems to have on full-grown adults.

The looters run and hide. The peaceful protesters catch the brunt.

May all of their bio children grow up to be radical queer atheists.

Fuck her husband as well. She didn’t do this on her own, and he has monetized content too. 

Respect for having the courage to ask for help. 

In this particular case, I will take his word for it.
