It isn’t relevant. None of the actions the cops took that night were due to any knowledge of who these girls were or their rap sheet. There is no need to act like a bunch of school kids and start tattling on them if for no other reason than that they are fucking dead. Release the video, state the facts of that night…

why don’t you steal cars and run from police

I don't know. Police always say how they risk their lives every day with their dangerous jobs so that's why they should be able to shoot first and have no questions asked later. And yet here they had the opportunity to actually risk their lives and chose not. Happy to take the benefits but refuse to take the burdens.

You mean places without fully developed social safety nets

It’s tragic, is what it is. This situation is a tragedy. Why?

I don't like the comments I'm reading on here. Yea they ran from the cops, but basically saying because they ran from the cops they deserved to die is just as wrong as them running from the cops. They may have been bad apples but they still should have survived to be held accountable for their actions.

No, we just don’t happen to agree with you. I have at least one major problem with both Republicans and Democrats. Democrats fiscally and in regards to gun control. Republicans in regards to foreign policy. The closest party to my ideas I’d probably Libertarian but they definitely go too far in the idea of limited…

Being forced to constantly play a gender you don’t want to in video games. I can’t imagine what that is like.

As someone who works in a group home shelter for abused foster kids, I can only personally speak to the first part of this article and say that, for all the attempted subterfuge our kids go through to dodge the Rules, we almost always know when they’re doing it — we just sort of let it go (as long as it isn’t anything…

intentionally engages others

What part of there was a vehicle accident did you not understand? He was intentionally engaging them because they just caused an accident just like you intentionally engage someone that rear ends you by pulling over and exchanging information.

Just a reminder folks; you may be a tough mofo but people can and do legally carry guns and a gun is the ultimate equalizer. Looks like this was Florida and that’s a will issue state* and a stand your ground state**. Had one of those riders turned towards her threateningly she could have legally shot and killed him…

This is a ridiculous oversimplification. I won’t speak for the nra, and I won’t ever carry a loaded firearm in public, but I’m what one would call a “gun nut”, and believe most homes (where the residents are of stable mental state) do have a bit of a safety benefit with a gun in the home. Please dont lump me with…

I’m no gun lover, but is that what those people really say? Has the NRA ever publically said that there would be NO gun violence or crime if everyone had a gun?

Or it could be that's it's 2016 and they're tired of the stars of every story being 20 something white guys. That shits tired. Not every one who plays video games is a Middle aged white dude. Black and brown people play video games too

If you love playing as white dudes...we’ve got ya covered

It’s what ever number they want it to be to get their agenda across. The sources in that BBC article are from well known anti-gun groups.

I’m Irish/Sicilian on my father’s side, and that part of my family is a stereotype of New York mafioso immigrants, so I always had an attitude that was totally incongruent with my appearance, and bullies just couldn’t deal with it. Bullies are deeply fragile, and when their victims don’t shrink like delicate flowers…

I’m also a transwoman. For most people like me I recommend being armed, being highly aware of surroundings, and just escaping or de-escalating any dangerous situation when possible. But personally, I know that if I wasn’t a fighter, and I just let people bully me, it would have killed me a long time ago. Everyone has…

For most of my life as a transwoman, I’ve gotten the better of male harassers. I’m tough, I like fighting, and I’m good at it. Then one time a guy four times my size and his brother yelled ‘faggot!’ at me while I was walking into a gas station, and instead of fighting I just let them shove me around and pin me against…
