I would think the connection is that they were protesting the killing of George Floyd? It’s a pretty obvious connection.

Name checks out.

theyll get a longer sentence than people who broke into the capital building and set shit on fire and built a gallows on the lawn.  

Surely these will also be charged:

That’s a District Attorney grasping at straws to try to make an example of someone. I can’t see that charge possibly sticking unless the guy was threatening the driver or physically holding the door closed to prevent them from getting out. “That man was talking at me so passionately that I couldn’t leave for whole minu…

“he was just the easiest to identify out of the 300 people.”

The people protesting that BLM get better treatment. Can’t qwhite put my finger on why.

One part of their defense, though, is really shit. I’d fire my lawyers for saying something like this:

Well the Queen Mary is not a cruise ship. So there’s that. She’s an ocean liner and there really is a world of difference between the two.

Every time there’s one of these articles, out come the people who seem not to know anything about the Queen Mary or her importance to not only the world, but also the US. I would guess that this ship was directly responsible for keeping more American service members safe than just about any other single vessel in…

I’d guess that the hull of the Queen Mary is every bit as tough as that of a Battleship. This isn’t a cruise ship that plods along through the tranquil Caribbean - it’s an Ocean liner, designed to withstand the worst that the North Atlantic could throw at her at any time of year.

By the time they ever get around to actually selling them, Rivian, GM, Ram and Ford will already have theirs out.

I mean it has literal cutting edges so the metaphor is physical reality. Metaphysical seems like it should work here but it doesn’t so instead we have phorphy.

Elon doesn’t have a personality.

Don’t make me come over there, Emslie.

These corporations aren’t going to just accept these losses

the only thing this is good for is scrap metal (and there is likely quite a lot of value there).  there is no historical value as there are still airworthy BAC-1-11s flying to this day

Damn indeed because the original conditions of being granted a corporate charter was that is must prove social benefit.

Only one party supports a violent overthrow based the proven lies of a gameshow host.

Once again another reason why the fucking system is broken. Elected officials should not be receiving money from corporations. That is utter bullshit.
