When there is chance you and your family will be killed, it’s smart to have backup.

“Somebody come and do the job that I’m afraid to do, because I fear standing up to my fellow officers and beg the federal government to come do it instead”
I had that same argument with a friend on 9/12 - not flying back to DC, but he wanted to declare war before finding out who it was who attacked. He said it had to be Saddam Hussein and what were we waiting for. I said what if it isn’t. We remained friends, but not as close as we once were. I think we surprised…
Clary stated that the only 2 options were that the officer purposely hid the footage or lied. It shouldn’t matter the answer, neither one of those is acceptable and he should be terminated for dereliction of duty...especially since he was the highest ranking officer at the scene. The only thing that will change these…
He’s just an innocent babe in the woods, shocked and stunned that police officers would tell lies about brutalizing, crippling and killing innocent people. Heavens to Betsy, so it ain’t so!
So Col. Lamar Davis expects us to believe that he never read the reports and complaints on his racist police until now?
Only fucking idiots remember W. fondly. He was and always will be a war criminal.
Hmmm, PNAC, anyone?
Sir, I'll have you know, they not half-idiots. They are very full idiots! Dare I say complete morons.
Yeah. I’m afraid he didn’t have the courage of his convictions, and so when it came to taking action rather than kumbayaing, ended up listening to the more foolhardy and/or genocidal of his company. (Still his responsibility for picking them and listening to what they said, of course.)
What fucking country was he living in? No bigotry after 9/11? Come closer to the Dearborn, MI, area and see what bigots did to some of the mosques and Muslim folks around there after 9/11. See how the local Islamic school in Ann Arbor had to hire and beef up security. He continued a proud Republican tradition of…
Shocking. I was sure he’d apologize and turn himself over to The Hague.
Bush said a lot of the Right Things in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 (“the Islam I know is a religion of peace”, “this attack was carrots out by extremists who do not represent mainstream Islam“, etc.). There was a brief glimmer of a constructive path ahead but I don’t think anyone eat surprised when he didn’t take…
As I remember it, the vast sentiment after 9/11 was to wipe the Middle East off the map. If *ever* there was a public outcry of support for nuclear weapon usage, I would believe that it would have been beginning 9/12/01. This just goes to show that Bush was either 100% full of shit or worse, believes the reality he…
Bullfuckingshit.
There was a documentary on the BBC recently, 9/11: Inside the President’s War Room and it’s enjoyable if you want to watch a man slowly just try to convince himself how brilliant he was while desperately demanding to fly back to D.C even when they didn’t know if further attacks would take place and was declaring war…
Time to bring in the feds.
For a lot of non-whites in America, hating on Black people is the first rung on the ladder.
The bitch still failed upwards. She went from one board to the head of another VC firm. While I appreciate her honesty so that we can know not to fuck with her or any company that she represents, it still hits me wrong that an Asian woman would say something like that - not surprising, just fucked up. White Supremacy…
Yet when karma comes knocking its always honor our fallen “heroes” blah blah blah. I always wonder how many murders did they commit, excessive force cases they have that’s been swept under the rug, the number of people who have been harassed and framed because they are allowed to get away with this shit?! They can’t…
