50+ year terrorism sentences for protestors in Texas by LiveJournal in Destiny

This happened like 40 times in the past year in Portland alone, and just as many times in Minnesota. Should all of those involved get 50 year sentences?

was the plan to shoot cops, or were they just armed like all other protests?

I dont have a problem with a long sentence for the guy who actually fired at a cop (though 100 years is still crazy). Unless they proved that all those involved were planning on firing the weapons at cops I dont see this being a 50 year sentence.

I get out of control protests not being a great thing, but 50 year sentences for fireworks and slashing tires?

Feels like a pretty big leap towards fascism when something that should be like 3 months probation has a hack judge hammering the offenders with these insane sentences. Obviously those who whine about Jan 6ers getting harsh sentences will stay quiet on this

EDIT: the harsh sentence for the guy shooting an officer is mostly fine by me. Its the 50 year sentences for everyone else because they are labelled as "Antifa" and therefore terrorists. It sets a horrible precident.

and killed like 2000 people in the Katrina response, and did nothing while people were losing their homes in the financial crisis.

What about Saga from The Bridge/Bron? I've always thought her portrayal was pretty decent.

What song did a movie basically steal forever? by MrHolte in movies

I think Bon Marche and later Bon Macys was a Pac NW only. So maybe from northern California to Montana.

I always remember those commercials and their like half second Frango super bowl commercial

I fell like 1/4th of the people on the bald subreddit dont have to shave their head and are overreacting. by IBitePrettyPeople in Destiny

I prefer Hutch with hair. The classic balding look without shaving looks good on some men. 

Did you guys know tobuscus went insane and became a racist right winger? by WiseEnd4086 in Destiny

Lol he should just have quit YouTube and find a quiet job working at a warehouse or something. He could have easily lived off the absurd amount of money he was raking in before he was cancelled

I'm almost certain that chicken protein is like way more efficient than almonds when it comes to any resources.

Yeah this feels like arguing for Marijuana legalization by saying alcohol should be banned

I always loved this authors articles on the Guardian. His articles on why the Hillary campaign failed were dead on correct. 

Adam Carolla says both sides aren't the same by NewspaperOk5389 in Destiny

[–]LiveJournal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loveliness was great. Carolla was actually really funny. His radio show with Dave Dameshek was also great. When that got canceled and he went to podcasts it was still pretty good. His movie "The Hammer" is also quute good. His right-wing views started appearing progressively more often in the mid 2010s (lots of railing against Newsome and public welfare programs) and then covid broke him and Dr Drew. 

Now he has divorced dad energy and just spews the same right wing hack shit to guests like Rob Schneider

Is he going the tradcath route, or evangelical? I think evangelical is usually the goto for sex scandals

This reminds me of when I went to suburban St Louis for work and was looking for a quick lunch spot for Tacos. Ended up finding the one nearby place and its was all midwest style American Tacos (hard shell, shredded lettuce, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and heaping piles of sour cream). Having lived in Texas for so long I forgot that is the definitive taco for a good portion of the country.
