And most importantly, moments of levity do in fact exist in courtrooms. So if you feel any flatulence coming on, as is fairly common in moments of extreme stress, take my advice and wait until its quiet before employing the “let it rip” technique. Make no facial expressions, don’t turn your head, and watch as everyone…

It’s the paper industry! First reefer madness, now this!

Well said. Definitely same page and frankly it’s encouraging to see/hear/read other folks with same mentality. Not to say everything else isn’t discouraging because it most certainly is, but one must take little wins where one can.

Protect & Serve White Supremacy. That’s the goal and regardless of an individual officer’s race that is what their goals are whether they know it or not. When they get exposed for the racist shit they do, the system protects them and often times encourages their behavior.

Well judging by the absolutely mind boggling ads Tucker Carlson is responsible for... suffice to say I don’t think it’s clear that they know what their message is either. “Be manly yet very emotional over topics that don’t affect you (unless you’re a woman; don’t be manly at all in that case)!” or something?

Things like that, which were prevalent in every majority Black neighborhood I’ve ever lived in, coupled with the flat-out disenfranchisement in the form of removing polling locations (in widespread metro areas where hardly anyone can get around without driving longer distances) and restricting mail-in voting is…

This resonated with me more than I thought it would based off the general tone (don’t get me wrong, I am beyond pissed off too; Just didn’t know where you were going at first which I concede was a Me problem).

You have no one to blame but yourself, dummy. Actually I am not sure if you’re dumb or conniving or both, but I genuinely don’t give a shit which it is because you’ve proven yourself to be useless either way.

It was brown, but alas she did not flush it down

Yet another example of eyewitness testimony being totally unreliable and resulted in a man losing the majority of his life to a system designed to cage and dehumanize him in the first place. If it’s not an overly aggressive/racist DA or lying, shady ass cops, it’s something like this. The state can wash their hands of…

If this doesn’t result in cuffs for multiple members of congress, people affiliated with congress, and an ex-president at a minimum, miss me with all of it

Well said (well, asked).

Lol “day one initiatives” from the dems are akin to how I used to over-promise when courting young women as a younger man.

Did they not mean “invalid” in the “not valid” sense? I thought they were saying it was an invalid license due to prior infractions and thus he was unable to drive in the first place.... Maybe I’m off base.

For the record, not all that different than Trump’s bitchass claiming 2016 was rigged against him- even though he won...

Sadly you already know the answer to that- for the same reason they started calling slave catchers police...To keep certain folks under their boot, while the rest of society licks those same boots. Ends up painting us as savages and criminals, and them as the epitome of good and virtuous. Why waste time with frivolous…

Between Gascon appearing to be exactly who our SF brethren told us he was, and then people like Alex “I’m a scumbag who covers up violent cop-gang activity within my sheriff’s department, all while doing what I can to save my own cowardly skin” Villanueva, it’s not hard to see why the relationship between communities…

Used to live in South Philly right by South st and we’d chill at a bar that overlooked the street... We’d wager on which cars would/would not execute a clean parallel park job right out front, complete with odds based on size of vehicle and perceived experience level of the driver (perceptions which caused many a…

May my body fuel a lower income family’s home or provide electricity for a fantastic, legendary concert. I’m with you

This was very helpful, I appreciate you. I’m a bit of a youtube rabbit-holer and you’ve all but assured me a date with destiny tonight- destiny in the form of watching this 2 hour video followed by many others of a similar topic. Salute to you kobalt.
