Been there. Am there. My cat says hi.

Your analogy is ridiculous. Once this asshat decided to arrest Ms. Bland on the fake charges he took away her autonomy and her well being was literally in the hands of the assholes at the jail. Additionally, he’s part of a department that has had problems with this type of thing just 3 years ago headed by a racist…

If you’re basing this on the illegal arrest you already have an illegal act on which you can place responsibility on that asshat cop.

My issue always has been that everyone is so concerned with the lives of these poor animals, but no one gives a shit about the people living in indentured servitude who make your fresh veggies available and low cost. I don’t care what the circumstance is, people trump animals every time.

That is an accurate assessment. NVC is jsut...

Give gohan the attention he deserves or I’m gonna choke someone.

The fucking LeBrons or whatever

Actually, that's not how social change fucking works. It's not "peace first, then justice." It's very much the other way around.

Let me fix that for you: "White on black crime has been virtually non-existent for about 40 years. However, institutionalized white on black violence has become the norm." See, it isn't a "crime" unless you are prosecuted and convicted. See also, Zimmerman, George. Also, vast portions of police "misconduct."

She's privileged and white and that's exactly why so many of the gawker commenters can relate to this BS poverty porn.

Side note: The tweet from the original woman was "Are you fucking serious? Thinsperation!" so I can understand why Adam thought it was trolling and not real teachable moment. Doesn't explain away his AWFUL response and threats of violence, but when we're trying to teach people we need to not assume they understand why…

Seriously, most people I know don't know that, and I'd be pissed too if I got lectured by a bunch of randoms on the internet for something that no one except people who regularly read feminist or women-centric websites can be expected to know. I bet most of my (female) friends don't know either. Granted, I wouldn't…

I don't blame him for the initial use of the hashtag...I'm sure the average privileged white male is not aware of the connotation behind the word "thinspiration."

Some of these boys were put into the general population with adult men. $40 million can't cover that.

If you're being serious:

Given the racist undertones of the Clinton campaign let's just say neither campaign shined at times during the 08 primary.

white people will call us niggers whether or not they are given permission. That's the point. This always comes up because someone white has called someone black a nigger. Does "n-word" fool anyone? Does that feel kinder?

Fuck white people.
