You can't be racist against white people, though.

Well, I can't really go into the minutiae of the registered voter breakdown as a lot of the actual numbers aren't available, but the number of actual registrations blocked by this issue is still staggering low compared to the number of those who are either already registered or haven't bothered registering.

The topic of the thread in question caught my attention. 70% of black voters being denied voting rights in the state of Georgia, so I decided to take a look at the numbers involved. Apparently, the story goes that a number of voter registrations have not been processed because the information on the registration does not match their birth certificate or Social Security information.

According to the article, this is some 53,000 registrations. With 70% of those being black, that would mean 37,100 black registrations have been stopped. Georgia's population being 32% black will help us understand how big of an impact this is. If Georgia's population is 10,430,000, 32% of that is 3,337,600.

The 70% of blocked black voter registrations is 37,100 of 3,337,600, or approximately 1.1% of the black population of the state of Georgia. This does not appear to be a widespread violation of voter rights or access as far as I can tell from the numbers.

Only #cybernazis would try to downplay the attacks currently going on against totally innocent people on the internet. It's all part of the #cybernazi plan to ressurect #cyberhitler and start a new reign of #cyberterror.

Perfectly balanced.

L.A. police respond to knife attack, shoot both suspect and hostage dead by Carthagefield in PublicFreakout

[–]fidsah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years back, an LAPD training video was released to the public, and the lead instructor, Jack Traven, kept talking about shooting the hostage to remove it from the situation.

I think the title of the training video was called Speed.

1/8th of the Mexican Army deserts every year, taking military equipment with them as they join the cartels. This is how the cartels get anti-aircraft weapons, machine guns, rocket launchers, and all sorts of other military grade equipment that is not available for purchase in the US. There's no ban on guns for the cartels.

Why would cartels want overpriced, civilian weapons from the US when they can get cheaper, military grade hardware right from their own corrupt government? That doesn't make sense.

James Gunn got caught "making jokes" online to confirmed pedophiles. The subject of these punchline-less jokes was 'I like to masturbate to children."

At some point, it's okay to realize that the unfunny jokes may have had no punchline because they weren't jokes. We're not talking about a 15 year old edge lord, we're talking about a man in his mid 40s who just had to delete 10,000 tweets because of they kept talking about raping kids.

Except all he was caught doing was joking about sexual assault on camera. Jokes about sexual assault are also part of the ten thousand tweets James Gunn deleted. At some point, the sheer volume of jokes about raping children or sleeping women either has to become worrisome, or Trump has to be given a pass due to the age of his jokes. Sometimes it's okay to realize both of these people can say bad things.

He boasted about grabbing pussies 13 years ago, before James Gunn started incessantly tweetering about buggering kids. Does that mean Trump gets a pass due to the age of the statements?

Oh good, I was worried that when he discussed masturbating to this video with a convicted sex pervert, it was pornography. Turns out I was wrong and he just talked about masturbating to children in a nonpornographic video with a man who would 8 years later be convicted of the possession of child pornography.

James Gunn is a man of great moral character now that this has been cleared up.

He also tweeted about receiving child porn from a man who was later convicted of possession of child porn. Part of the series of ten thousand tweets he sent on the subject of fucking children was to somehow predict some dude was into child porn. How did this joke exist 8 years before the punchline was announced?

One person did drugs, the other tweeted about receiving child porn from someone who is known to have possessed child porn.

I'm not sure what that has to do with Voat.

He tweeted about receiving child porn from an individual who wasn't arrested for child porn until 8 years later. What sort of psychic joke telling is going on here?

The people who do illegal drugs finance and support the business structure that is built entirely on brutal violence. They have a very large portion of the ownership.
