dealraker Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) Any male with balls larger than a pin head would not have been threatened by the Good lady. I'll bet there are at least a few police officers in that city who have respect for women enough to have thoughts to take the ICE shooter out for a few shots. Perfect idea for Denzel's next The Equalizer. I'd be giving him a standing ovation. Edited January 11 by dealraker

They also should have been charged with assault with a weapon. But this wasn't even attempted vehicular manslaughter...let alone attempted murder with a weapon. No reason they should have been shot. Compare that to the riot at the Capitol...protestors turned rioters breaking into the Capitol building while in session. Not a mall or office buildings, the Capitol building! Politicians barricaded in the chamber floors, fearing for their lives, while officers stood guard over the entry with their guns drawn. Rioters attempting to break the doors...not a handful of rioters, but dozens...enough that would have easily overwhelmed the officers even with their sidearms. A woman rioter is shot and killed...but that still doesn't stop the rioters. They continue to run wild through the Capitol building attacking police officers and destroying government property. You say that she wasn't respecting authority...yet the rioters en masse were doing the same and were running through the Capital building screaming to hang certain politicians. I can understand how you think the media is biased on many issues...but how can you deny, with a straight fucking face, that January 6th wasn't a riot and that many of those that received pardons, particularly the violent, armed rioters rampaging through the Capital building, should have received such pardons? There is no debating this...just plain wrong...and that is what any responsible person would tell their own children and grandchildren. Cheers! <<It is stupid and reckless. They should have been arrested and their car impounded.>>. Completely agree. If that would happen immediately after one warning when any law enforcement operation is being intentionally impeded, there would be a lot less incidents.

ICUMD Posted January 11 Posted January 11 36 minutes ago, 73 Reds said: he wants...not negotiation, not compromise...extortion! And many people are ok with that! Not sure people are OK with what he does, but there is no alternative. Trump has single handedly crushed DEI, abortion and freedom of speech. Even late night satire is threatened! You're right, no negotiation, no discussion. Just action. Its very efficient but seems to fly in the face of democracy. Trump sees multiple wars to be fought even where there is peace.
Marco Van Basten Posted January 11 Posted January 11 By the way, from the evolutionary point of view, it is probably best to have children with someone of a different race, since the likelihood of genetic disorders is reduced. Now there could be cultural problems to deal with, however in my experience, Soviet immigrants in specialized science schools had a lot more in common with immigrants from Asia than Americans, despite being white. Similarly in college, I mostly hung out with Soviet, Latino and Bangladeshi/Indian first generation immigrants. Perhaps playing ping pong, squash, and pool after dinner had something to do with this...
ICUMD Posted January 11 Posted January 11 My wife is Canadian and I'm East Indian, second generation. 2 kids, both IVF. My 3 yo daughter is an awesome blend of light brown complexion, dark brown hair and brown eyes. Very sharp for her age. My 6 mo old boy, well he's very white with blue eyes and copper colored hair. I feel like I stole him when I hold him. Genetics is funny that way. So which one is white and which one is East Indian? Does it matter?
cwericb Posted January 11 Posted January 11 There are a few Heinz Pickles on this board staunchly holding forth for the right. Those Heinz pickles will attempt to justify anything and everything that Trump and his Storm Troopers do. Why is there is little sense in arguing with a Heinz Pickle? YOU ................................... Fill in the blank.

Yeah, if you love law enforcement, no use in arguing with anarchists and Antifa lovers: While ICE fights to remove the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens in Minnesota – including child rapists, murderers, and more – violent rioters and agitators are actively trying to protect these vicious criminals by interfering and obstructing ICE operations. https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/ice-arrests-dozens-criminal-illegal-aliens-convicted-murder-child-rape-and-more

SharperDingaan Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) Nothing wrong with pickles, and the more pickled the better! Growing up under apartheid, I was an atheist colonial border at a largely Jewish all boys school, with Zulu servants. When at home, Shona servants, and all this while living in a steadily worsening civil war, taking people every day. Before colonization, the Shona were Zulu subjects, and both tribes spoke entirely different languages. Had a great time breaking all the rules that I could think of Lot of others added to the mix during a stopover in Europe, all thoroughly enjoyable, and most all of them masters at their various crafts It's just a different approach to those around you. Some things you just have to try , other stuff .... you 've got better! SD Edited January 11 by SharperDingaan

There are far more people who disagree with you than choose to engage you. Maybe they have better things to do with their time.

LOL not to mentioned that while "two people" on COBF get obsessed over because of fragile feelings, theres a good bunch of gnats who's contributions to the investing side, uhm....dont exist...they more or less inhabit this place to freeload and then chime in every once in a while to let us know they hate Trump or something. All good though!

SD SD [ @SharperDingaan ], I still miss your old avatar of the tribe chief with lips so huge and wide that he could kiss the whole family on a row goodbye in one huge *smack* before going to work! Now that the capital is distributed in full to the next generation, isen't it time to write your memoirs now? Or driving a new Ph.D. teacher nuts? Isen't sentiment swing trading turds like Ørsted and earlier Deutsche Bank and oil stuff getting a bit boring with time?
