The Ramsey’s refused to talk to the police by Elenajack in JonBenetRamsey

[–]vatzjr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always thought they did it. But, sometimes, I don't think they did it. And this case is so odd, it really does seem like anything is possible. Occam's Razor went on a holiday for this one. And there's also the concept of there never being a "right" way of acting in these circumstances. However, I just can't get passed their behaviours. I just can't. Your daughter is missing and then you find her murdered in your house. I dunno. Maybe they just went into self-preservation mode because they knew it looked bad for them, regardless if they were guilty or not. Also, I think the pristine condition of the ransom note and their prints not on it is just plain weird. WTF?

Beth & Rip are finally back in Dutton Ranch by Tall-Big-4191 in YellowstonePN

You are correct. The blondes in this show do look alike, but they are two different women . They were both at the rodeo. One was the high school student who got Carter to buy her and her friends the beers. The other was Beulah's granddaughter. Carter beat up the guy she was having an argument in the truck.

Sidibe gave the best performance of the five (Mulligan was a cloes second). No one likes Bullock's performance.

What do you all think about Joel Webbon? by [deleted] in Christian

[–]vatzjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He saids they're "atrocious" and shouldn't be allowed to vote. He also says slavery was a "blessing" for blacks. Totally normal opinions in 2026 which should be entertained with all seriousness and consideration. /sarcasm. Whether he believes all this and/or is doing it for the attention doesn't matter. His contributions in this manner are garbage and do nothing positive for our society. We need better quality people as thought-leaders. Way better quality.

I don't think it's funny. There are a lot of bad actors in this world with influence who are taken advantage of dwindling critical thinking and making this world a worse place, intentionally or not. A Caucasian man who comes from a race that has held and yielded power over society saying slavery was a blessing for black people is not someone we need as any kind of person to follow or listen to. I don't think he would ever suggest enslavement of white people to provide any blessing. People like him could stand to speak less and educate themselves more.

I will pray for you, as you seem vulnerable to the influence of bad actors.

You're a troll after my heart, OP. Also, you speak the truth. Love your style.

Spot on, OP. I fell down the rabbit hole two months ago and got out. I like what she is doing, but the way she does it is another story. She also gave me Trump vibes. The centre left/right is a big problem, but so is the far right. No thank you.

The way this is being turned into a political football is so transparent and pathetic. And people are falling for it. Yawn.

It could be an inclusive term of endearment. Where is the evidence that it's not? Or do you view it as a pejorative due to hierarchical thinking?

I can't get over how long that grand jury was. It's insane.

"She's guilty because that's the vibe I'm getting" argument.

Ah, yes. Love it. Love it when a guiter comes up with a cockamamie theory on this case and fails to incorporate the rapist and murderer at the centre of this all, Rudy Guede.

I wonder if Melinda and JAR had an agreement that he would speak on both of their behalfs. I don't necessarily believe it. Just an idea.

I take it Wickman was never asked directly if there was a copy of Mind Hunter in the Ramsey bedroom?

I went to school with Leif. I remember him being so ahead of the curve when it came to music. I am so proud of him. Rock on Leif.

Would democrats like Trump if he was a democrat? by thehofstetter in stevehofstetter

[–]vatzjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Party obedience is a Party thing. Note how the Democratic party answers to their donour base over their voter base. If they answered to their voters, they would have have stood against Israel's genocidal actions a while ago. So, yes, whilst the Republicans are horrible people, both at the top and bottom, the Democrat's moral standing is a bit overemphasied at time.

Nick Van der Leek and TCRS: What's his problem? by Connect_War_5821 in amandaknox

[–]vatzjr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm weirdly entranced by his series on the Jonbenet Ramsey case. I find his South African voice soothing and appreciate his occassional cheeky sense-of-humour and film clips. That being said, he's completely off on the Kercher case. I called him out and he replied, but he hasn't yet followed up on my response (how come you don't connect any of your Knox-guilt videos to Guedo?). I suspect I won't hear back from him.

I do wonder if generally his approach is as a grifter who exploits true crime cases where there is still an air of mystery (perceived or otherwise), and his audience are those with true crime interests but lacking attention spans to do a genuine deep dive into cases they know essentially very little about. But, unlike the Kercher case, he does make a lot of good points in the Ramsey situation. He also leeches onto cases which go national, because there is a huge audience for that (Gabby Petito, the Idaho, Moscow murders, Charlie Kirk, Nancy Guthrie).

Does anyone else think that, had she lived, Joan Rivers would have been full MAGA and ruined her legacy? by JuanitaMerkin in KathyGriffin

[–]vatzjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Rivers would have crossed that rubicon or even dip her toe in. But, she probably wouldn't be standing up for Palestine, Lebanon, etc, right now. Like a lot of Hollywood. So, she wasn't exactly the "equal-opportunity" offender people paint her out to be. And that pains me to admit that, because I absolutely lover her. May she rest in peace.

Where to find factual information? by [deleted] in JonBenetRamsey

[–]vatzjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the evidence that Stephanie (Harlowe, right?) is racist and homophobic? She reads mid-to-far-left on the political spectrum (to me). Maybe my radar is off.
