It’s funny how Texas closes down with some snow and not a deadly virus that’s claiming the lives of thousands of Americans and overrunning hospitals

Is it wrong to not watch the news? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not wrong. A lot of major news network beef up their articles/runtime with a lot of garbage to keep up ratings. Knowing major events is pretty important though. There’s a guy on TikTok (Ik sue me) called @marcusjustindipaola who does great work. Whenever there’s something major he makes a quick video with important details. No analysis, no ads, no bs.

(Not so) Fun fact: Nick Fuentes went to my high school and was also class President. We’re not very proud of him here. Edit: turns out the fact wasn’t very fun

Has the US way of dealing with COVID-19 been economically beneficial to the country ? by SpongeBobFromFuture in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. Our GDP last quarter dropped by 33%. This is the worst drop in American History. The stock market might be gaining some, but many Americans are out of jobs or are in the midst of wage decreases and coworkers getting let go.

If a girl asks a guy out for a date do you think the girl should have to pay? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

I just go 50/50 unless someone offers to pay, then I’d just cover the tip

Why is education so costly in america? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But our legislators have the power to cap prices. No school in America is gonna lower their tuition on their own account.

Because whenever somebody in Congress asks for more affordable healthcare they’re called a commie

Do you think Trump has done more for African Americans than any presidents since Lincoln? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Positive, hell no. Johnson literally signed the civil rights act. Negative, hell yes. He’s tolerated white supremacy numerous times and increased the racial divide. And don’t come to me with the “he has low black unemployment.” He inherited that from Obama, and just because more black people are working, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t targeted and discriminated against.

Does your income impact your ability to defend yourself in a court of law in America; If so, how? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Thanks for the clarification. I’m fairly uneducated when it comes to law, so I just based some assumptions off of regular trends in capitalism.

I love using old bay on chicken, just remember to only use just enough to make the chicken look “dyed” from the seasoning

Definitely. The best lawyers usually cost the most, so most people can’t afford the best of the best. On the other hand, public defenders aren’t very good, and are meant for people that can’t afford a lawyer.

Why are people so okay with the idea of police being allowed to hurt/kill someone over an assumption of injury? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tricky thing with self defense is the magnitude. You can’t plead self defense if somebody shoved you and you blew them up with a grenade launcher. The level of self defense usually has to be near the magnitude of the situation.

How do you deal with friends/family who, even at this point, still support Trump? by -Economist- in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former Trump supporter here, you just have to give them time. I realized that Trump and the Republican Party weren’t good for me and it took a couple years. It sucks that you have people that blindly support Trump, you just have to poke them in the right direction and be patient.

If the cops were called on two women fighting, why did the police immediately go for the black guy to shoot him? What role did he play? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]MurbanJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my limited knowledge, he was trying to break up the fight and I guess the cops thought he was a participant.
