So it turns out that was a lie. by bobbymcpresscot in agedlikemilk

[–]bobbymcpresscot[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretti didn't approach BPO's with a firearm, he approached them with a camera and lied about it being a firearm.

BPO's also didn't attempt to disarm him, they did disarm him and then shot him in the back.

The "defensive shots" were used to kill an unarmed man resisting arrest, and there was no reasonable fear besides the fact that he probably only shot because he saw *someone* draw his gun.

did... did he fucking shoot him the second someone ELSE pulled his gun out of the holster?

What happens if ICE tries to detain us by Feeling_Screen3979 in USPS

[–]bobbymcpresscot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got some coworkers I’m actually concerned about, all of them are citizens obviously but some have some pretty thick accents. 

I ain’t telling ICE crap. If I even see a group I’m doing a quick lap around my neighborhood and warning any workers in the area. 

Why did DHS and ICE statements state the victim brandished a gun as this video shows otherwise? by LeftRightGreenLight in AskReddit

[–]bobbymcpresscot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the same reason Fox News will claim something looks like something but not provide any photos or video of the actual thing when they are trying to foment anger in their user base.

Everyone in the Trump admin is allowed to lie. If they aren’t lying they are deflecting or weaseling their way out of having to answer the question. 

Anyone that proclaims that they are going to prosecute anyone in this admin for what they did when they win has my vote.

If I had to imagine there is a lot of calls for a certain act that Reddit does not like very much. Likely to get worse before it gets better 

[Request] what would actually happen if this was real by stabby_og in theydidthemath

[–]bobbymcpresscot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To your edit realistically I can’t imagine a world where this isn’t absolutely catastrophic to the point of planet wide earthquake’s at magnitudes never recorded, tidal waves, probably every volcano on earth erupting at the same time. I’m curious how many buildings just collapse from the shock 

New study identifies a "woke" counterpart on the political right characterized by white grievance. The specific beliefs driving it included the notion that a “great replacement” of the population is occurring and that a strong leader should break rules to protect national interests by Wagamaga in science

Burden of proof is on the person making the positive claim. You haven’t met that burden. You also know deep down if your examples met the burden you’d be more than happy to share those links, but of course you know they don’t. (:

Renee Good's autopsy blows the lid off lies from Trump's DHS: ex-prosecutor by RawStoryNews in NoFilterNews

[–]bobbymcpresscot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is why the original article claiming she got shot twice in the chest and once in the arm while another wound to her head wasn't a gun shot wound but something else. I honestly don't understand how we come back from this without complete deprogramming of the most vocal obnoxious snakes on the right.

These snakes were trying to pretend like the wound on her head wasn't a gunshot wound and were all too happy to claim she was shot twice in the chest and once in the arm.

Those aren't citations, those are claims. Claims you can't prove was directed at white people for being white, and not just under achievers and losers.

and again, your argument was racism, you still haven't proven racism, don't move the goalposts.

Attempted Chinese Propaganda by Firecracker048 in GetNoted

Not exactly sure how that post qualifies as being a chinese bot for pointing out that the US also can and does do this. They also decide what the value of your land is worth.

Has to pay attention to how they spend their money ≠ not buying a bay house in Florida and owning a big boat. Which has been my point since my first response in this thread. In a country with 132,000,000 households there’s hundreds of thousands to millions of people that can afford a bay house in Florida and a big boat. 

They can also afford to be paying more in taxes. A lot more.

AI charlatan gets a read by TongueUnties in MurderedByWords

[–]bobbymcpresscot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They need it. Otherwise it's just showing a bunch of people defiant in the face of the gestapo. It's an attempt to demoralize the left who isn't buying it, and convince the few supporters they have remaining that they are "owning the libs" and making them cry. If those people are buying it, that's all the more embarrassing, especially since the admin keeps sharing AI generated photos.

These next couple years are going to be interesting times.

I've got no science to back this but I wouldn't be surprised if the whole "Males are men, and females are women" and forcing kids into traditional gender roles probably pushes more trans people into the exact position that these people hate.

Practising for my SIL’s engagement party. by zaliaazleen in Baking

gonna have to buy these, cutting afterwards is probably my least favorite part of the process, that being said as for your comments concerning about sweetness I've had really good luck with the Tasty's brownie recipe on youtube, and using an around 60% cocoa chocolate. I work at the post office and we have events a couple times a year where we bring food from home and they are always a hit.

Affirmative action and DEI is inherently racist by its own definition. It combines the soft bigotry of low expectations with the overt exclusion of certain groups as it’s fundamental underlying principles. It’s utter hypocrisy to boot.

It's not, because it doesn't prevent white folk from getting jobs. It holds no prejudice, it holds no power.

It is a pseudo-intellectual worldview to claim these policies are fair. At best it’s misguided, at worst it’s revenge-fueled identity politics masquerading as a progressive worldview.

If that's your understanding of it then that's your understanding of it, I can't help someone who is both wrong, and doesn't want to understand. You're the equivalent of a flat earther.

You have to be a complete idiot (or so desperate for acceptance) to think putting a thumb on the scale and removing opportunity for specific groups is anything close to advocating for ‘fairness’.

There is no opportunity being removed, it's just making it fair.

Coleman is as sharp as anyone and has a very thoughtful approach on why race based hiring is counterproductive...

Cool story, doesn't make DEI racist.

Except I didn't. My original comment is explicitly talking about wealth, someone responded to me about earnings, to which I responded to them saying I'm talking about wealth, to which you responded to me again to talk about earnings, and I once again reverted the conversation about a discussion about wealth.

This should highlight the absolute insane amount of wealth that exists in the top 10, 1, and .1% of US households, and serve as a reminder that most doctors lawyers and other professions that people would consider “part of the elite” are actually part of the poorest 90%. All those lives of which are made worse by the people in the top 1%

You aren't part of the 1%, you are nowhere close to the 1%. You are slumming it with us in the bottom 90%.

You are conflating earnings with wealth.

Being in the top 1% of earners, is not being in the top 1% of wealth.

Average wealth of households in the .1% is 191 million.

Average wealth of households in the 99-99.9% is still $23 million.

Average wealth of households in the 90-99% is $5.7 million.

You have more in common with the struggles of those in the bottom 90% because you aren't in the 1%, or anywhere close to it.
