But actually they very well could be; the gentrification process is different from place to place, but most times in cities it starts with the (overwhelmingly white) artists and the artists’ spaces.

Trump called for his followers to beat up peaceful protestors during his rally. People are still voting for him. As horrible as it is, this doesn’t even make the top 5 worst things he’s done.

“In Other Words adds that during filming Portlandia’s production staff removed a Black Lives Matter poster from the shop’s window.”

I think maybe the issue that gentrifiers shouldn’t be able to gentrify while they’re complaining about gentrification. Or, to put it another way, let’s not say that white feminists shouldn’t move into the heart of a historically black neighborhood, but don’t try and co-opt the struggles of its black residents.

“Oregon was formed to be a “white utopia””

“One of my closest friends is black! I mean, she was my roommate in college 10 years ago. Well, my roommates friend. And we don’t stay in touch, but she’s on my facebook. I totally like her BLM posts!”

What courtroom tactic would you then allow an accused to use?

I’d prefer someone with a lot more trial experience, even if they have a lot less press conference experience.

“The commenter was clearly referring to privileged white defendants with expensive legal representation, not the sort of people who would need a public defender.”

“What exactly does Gloria Allred do? I’m confused because she’s a lawyer in private practice, but she’s always in press conferences with victims of crime.”

Make her watch the Mirrors commercial a few times...

Honestly there’s also a good percentage of women, just like a good percentage of men, who are just fundamentally bad people.

Congress already thoroughly investigated the Saudi connection and found there wasn’t enough evidence there.

“Good luck with your interrogatories and requests for production of documents”

But...but...I shared an anti-tea party facebook post! Isn’t that enough? I mean, I totally would have voted but it was $3 PBR night and like my friend’s band was playing, and you know, the Democratic party are like totally sellouts so why should I vote for them?

Marc Maron has a funny bit on it.

“The only thing that’s surprising here is that some folks are finally catching on to their master class in PR spin.”

Most cases are about hypertechnical interpretations of various statutes. This goes to a broader interpretation and frankly, I can see some of the more liberal justices on the court grudgingly affirming.
