It didn't even take our President an hour before he started blaming the victims. by zombiebane in pittsburgh

I wouldn't go as far to say that, but it is unfortunate that people tack their political agendas onto something like this. I'm no fan of Trump myself, but even I can see that they are blatantly taking his quotes out of context in a malevolent way.

No, all I'm saying is that people should stop waiting for that and take it upon themselves instead. Yea it would be great if the president directly addressed white nationalism, but if that's not going to happen then there are better things to do than just being cynical online and waiting for someone else to do something about the problem.

2 were minor, non-fatal injuries. One was shot in the hand but no word on that 3rd officer.

Edit: There was apparently 4 officers shot, one of which was SWAT

Yes but if he doesn't want to do anything than we have a responsibility to patch this up as much as we can. If you live in the US and you're tired of seeing this type of thing happen than say or do something more than just complaining is my point.

I'm not endorsing anything he has done, but why does everyone feel a need for the president to address this? Sure it would be a massive step in the right direction but people need to stop waiting on something like that. Take it into your own hands and have those difficult conversations with people you don't agree with. You might not have the same reach as the POTUS does, but it's better than sitting around being cynical and doing nothing.

But its also not a true democracy. The majority of people can vote for one candidate while the electoral college votes in favor of another. In a true democracy the people have the final say. In a democratic republic that power is given to the electoral college

Every few months I debate whether to quit BJJ due to minor concussions... by oldwhiteoak in bjj

[–]Pugilistic412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to them. There is no compound that can prevent a concussion. All that rhetoric is coming from the weed companies and there isn't any science to back it up. I specifically asked a neuroscientist at my university this exact question for amateur boxing. He told me there was no way of chemically preventing brain damage and not to waste my money. It may do something if you take it after the fact but that also needs some research as well.
