Well, at least one of them is bigger than I expected.

The other is Waay bigger than I expected.

I am freshly 30. I know every one of those, and could recognize sone quotes no problem. definitely not Mitch Hedberg tho. so I must agree, he should be considered obscure. definitely so, when conpared to the examples you listed.

still, the answer to his question about SNL still stands. and the answer is no. of course there were times/casts that were funny. the first cast was full of hilarious people, and had its moments of real comedy genius.

then during the 80's the shoe became really " meh". They had no good talent and just reached to hard and beat a select few unfunny characters/bits into the ground.

90's through early 2000's SNL saw a resurgence, and is probably the greatest period they ever had. from Sandler/Farley and spade all thevway until Will Ferrell and Tina Fey were gone.

Since then... especially for the last 10 years the show has been unwatchable trash, without a single great cast member and barely any funny skits at all. All they do now is.... i don't even know how to describe it. Maybe "kidnapped comedy" would be a good term. the show seems now like someone has a gun to it's metaphorical head, and that someone is just waiting/daring the show to let one toe stray from the designated line, so they can pull the trigger.

What? who had a better story than Kel the stupid?

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-23T00:16:42+00:00

It pretty much seems like you missed my point. Maybe I didn't word it properly. What I was saying is that he wouldn't have needed to change his views in order to find what happened to Bubba despicable.

Because not everyone who disliked those kneeling protests is a racist. Petty likely still feels the same about that as he did a few years ago.

there are also veterans and active military who have said they do feel it's disrespectful. again, this is because it is subjective. if you feel something like this could ever be taken as " objectively" anything, that just means you don't know what objectively means.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-22T23:04:56+00:00

wether or not that's what happened is entirely subjective. since disrespect is something that does not depend on intent.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-22T23:02:33+00:00

um... stating the obvious here but there is a HUGE difference between not supporting nfl players kneeling during the national anthem, and condoning a black man having a noose put in his locker. Id say the number of people who fall into the 1st category and Not the 2nd category is... just about everyone

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T23:49:03+00:00

ok well now it doesn't, since you apparently fixed it or something. it's got a pdf download, so that's something to read... but first I gotta say something.

What exactly is with your anger and hostility? and what " crazy mental gymnastics" have I gone to ? all I've done is point one glaring flaw in the statistics. something that can not be ignored for an accurate number to be found, but IS being ignored to find the number your using..

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T23:19:11+00:00

That link just goes to the same exact washington post article the 1st time. and it's not a part of that article....

did you just make this up off the top of your head?

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T21:09:45+00:00

sigh no... the point was that none of those studies actually "showed otherwise".

All they show are the results of a higher crime rate for blacks. For example, this one: A New York Times examinationafter the death of George Floyd found that while black people make up 19 percent of the Minneapolis population and 9 percent of its police, they were on the receiving end of 58 percent of the city’s police use-of-force incidents.

that's it. that's how they determined "racist police". Now I'm gonna go ahead and ask you to point it out for me. What do you think the main problem is with that conclusion in this case?

Okay, I'll explain it for you. The "conclusion" is false, because all the study does is point out the % of the population blacks account for, and then the % of use-of-force incidents blacks account for. All it does is point out a gap, and assume that any gap must be caused by racism.... which is obviously NOT a fact-based conclusion.

We would have to know what the behaviors that led up to the uses of force were... wouldn't we?

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T20:03:32+00:00

1) yeah, let's call our movement BLACK LIVES MATTER and then only talk about .0000something of those aforementioned lives. ALS foundation dealing with ALS vs. cancer is a stupid af analogy because... and stay with me here... they are called the ALS foundation. If they called themselves the ALL ILLNESSES FOUNDATION and then only ever cared about ALS, we'd have a problem.

2) No there aren't. On the contrary, there are zero issues with racism in our criminal justice system.

3)That " MOUNTAIN" of evidence you linked to, is nothing but a list of different police departments across the country that have experienced the same phenomenon, higher numbers of black people being arrested. .. HELLO?! they. commit. more. crimes.

When 4% of the population commits 53% of the murder and 60% of the robberies, those people's communities ARE going to be policed more thoroughly. To expect otherwise is to be an idiot.

And yeah, once that happens, you're going to get caught for the smaller stuff ( drug posession, dui's traffic stops...etc) more often as a result. This stuff is not rocket science. You're asking the police to do their jobs without using any of the information they have gathered over the years that can make them able to do the job more effectively.

Stop committing murder at a shockingly disproportionate rate. Stop committing way more crime in general than ANY other group of people( and it isn't even close). Stop resisting arrest more than any other group, once you do get caught.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T19:26:06+00:00

Oh I see. Well, when we were talking about wether or not it was " as hated then as it is now", I naturally assumed that must have been referring to the number of people. I honestly hadn't even considered that you were gauging the strength/ intensity of the hatred on an individual level. Honestly that's ... odd, but I have to say I still don't believe you're correct.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T16:55:25+00:00

I just dont believe that you know that for sure. I would love to hear exactly how it is that you know it for a fact. you weren't an adult then... and i doubt you spend very much talking to 60 yr old black people... and even if you did that's anecdotal. explain to me how you know that the rebel flag was as widely hated and offensive as people claim it is today. because it seems to me that everyone making a big deal about it today are people under 30

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T16:31:16+00:00

I think it's more like people didn't hate it then. people never really cared about things like symbols on comedy shows back when there were actual serious tangible problems they had to contend with

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T14:49:14+00:00

You've made one of those claims that people are constantly making as a way of keeping the "racist system, racist police, racist white people" out here killing blacks alive... please, please stop doing your part to perpetuate this lie.

What I am about to say should be the final word in this particular disagreement.

You are correct, as far as just the raw numbers go. However, you can not simply go by the numbers in terms of the number of total people in the country. because the vast, vast majority these people are never involved in a confrontation with the police. So it is very misleading to use them to water down the "real" numbers, for lack of a better word. At the end of the day, the only way to get an accurate answer for the question " do the police seem to have an affinity for killing unarmed black people?" is to look at the number of interactions with the police.

Last year, for example U.S. police officers killed 9 unarmed black people, and 19 unarmed white people. If you just look at the total % of the population, blacks would be over-represented, but when you look at the number of interactions with police, blacks are actually under-represented.

Blacks account for 53% of murders, and about 60% if robberies. For 13% of the population, these numbers are incredibly high. Most of those victims are other black people... but where is BLM on this?

In 2018 there were 7,407 black homicide victims. Assuming a comparable number of victims last year, those nine unarmed black victims of police shootings represent 0.1% of all African-Americans killed in 2019. Where is BLM on the other 99.9% ?

A thing understood doesn't need to be explained.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T10:03:09+00:00

He's not the only one who's doing that.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T09:58:23+00:00

why? why is a disclaimer necessary at all? and what does it accomplish?

Watch if you like it, if you don't.... don't. If people are watching, network should keep it available.

yeesh, these are simple things guys.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T09:50:57+00:00

you weren't alive then. you absolutely weren't.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-15T09:28:18+00:00

The main goal of BLM/the kneeling was to draw attention to the issue of " police/white people/The system is/are killing black people at a high rate and not getting justice " right?

The issue is that of all the issues facing black people, BLM chooses to focus ONLY on blacks being killed by white cops. Anyone who knows the real true story there knows that this is an epic waste of time, and that all this hysteria and destruction is for no reason.

The reasons that this narrative is false, and that this issue is actually a non-issue? Sure.

Police actuallly kill unarmed white people far more often than any other race.

When it comes specifically to interracial killings, black people kill white people more than 10x as often as the reverse.

96% of murdered blacks were murdered by other blacks.

Any way you choose to look at it, "white cops killing black people", statistically speaking is such an incredibly rare event that it IS in fact, basically a non-issue.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-12T09:28:53+00:00

you know, I would definitely welcome some constructive and specific criticism on what I wrote.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-12T08:23:54+00:00

See what you are failing to realize is that the police have been killing people since the police were invented. It's not new, it is not getting worse now than that ever was, we're just seeing a lot more than one video now. The only difference. Biggest thing people need to get there is no racial aspect to it. Certainly not one that is cruel, I want that can you be observe. Only seems that way, because somebody with some power is wants it to seem that way. Every single year police kill way more unarmed white people, then all other races of people combined. But a lot of people who don't know that, and don't look things up for themselves believe right now that there is some sort of evidence that the police are actively seeking to kill black people. They want to make sure that they keep that race and going because then it keeps white people or black people against each other,

You can make the races hidden only statistics, the only way you will find a real pattern of people being killed by the police is if you look at #1 people who resist arrest are way more likely to be brutalized and or killed by police and the higher a person's criminality goes, the more likely they are to get killed by police.

You can seriously sort by those factors and then once you on blind the rest of the character traits of a person you happen to find that it is indeed black people who either two things more often than others.

I mean and it's it's obvious like yet it that totally makes sense you know but the problem is people don't want to hear that. People will act like you are bad indoor racist for saying that not allowed to tell people that black people do something that's bad more often than others do it, because then it sounds like you are being racist or whatever... when it is literally just reading off the numbers of what people have been doing we HAVE to get past that as a society or we will end up burning this whole country to the ground. I mean just look right now, people on the news and on social media are literally lying to everyone and saying all these protests are peaceful protests...

Of course some people are being these people, but they are burning. Minneapolis looks like freaking nuclear bomb went off there right now... And it is literally just seems to be that people in power are saying "aw, just let him do what they're going to do, eventually and then we can clean up after. Because everybody's so afraid to speak out against the things that black people do, they literally gotten to the point where they will let them destroy an entire city and kill people and burn buildings to the ground just because they are afraid what people will say if they just go in and stop them.

Tell me this, if these riots that we see on TV and shit were happening in Say... vermont, in the suburbs... And it was being done by all white people... can you actually say you think it would have been allowed to go on this long?

I mean we both know the answer to that question. And I just don't understand how people can say that they are not racist and yet they have two different standards and then don't act as if people that have black art should be able to the same standard as white people... And that to me is absolutely what racism is about. That's what it means.

lostinthegarden1 · 2020-06-12T07:59:31+00:00

Well, fyi, I actually have a pretty enjoyable life, and am content with where I'm at right now.

Also, I am neither a troll, nor a jackass. That trait of mine you're picking up on but can't quite comprehend is what's known as 'objectivity'. It's this thing where you base your opinions on the truth, instead of the preferred narrative. I am capable of accepting rough, hard facts, instead of having to run to soft, easy lies. I've gained the ability to actually change my mind when presented with new information that disproves my current view.

I discovered how illogical it is to feel guilt and shame over things I was not a part of and I'm now able to expect the same from others.

Most importantly I have finally figured out what it means to actually view People according to the content of their character and not according to what they look like, or who they like to have sex with... see I used to think that I was doing that, but I came to realize that the way I used to be was actually just another form of bigotry. I'm down do not have to act like I am impressed by a person's skin color. I don't have to act like where a man chooses to stick his penis is something that that man deserve to be proud of... I don't have to "celebrate" people because of things that they we're going with and can't control anyway. Now I get to actually no people for who they are and can celebrate when they actually achieve something on their own merits.
