I feel totally certain this is some kind of insane racist dogwhistle.

The most I can find looking it up are Australian silver bullion coins. So if the poster is Australian, they might just be talking about the lawyer and Earth, Wind, & Fire getting paid because "Obviously they got paid if their song got used!".

Of course, it's likely that the whole reason they're pissed about it being used is that they didn't get asked permission or paid for the use of the song. Republican politicians have a long history of playing songs without getting the rights first and pissing off bands that don't want to be associated with them.

I too can't get over the :ironicat: of people being offended by the concept of safe spaces or trigger warnings and asking for their removal. It's just so great when they don't realise they are just as stupidly offended as the strawman in their head.

The same people who will claim that people shouldn't get offended over racial slurs because they're just words will fly into a rage if they hear the term "micro-aggressions", from what I've found.

The best part is that the post is presenting it as if there weren't way more comments from white people talking about how the "thug deserved it." I also like the one about "how dare they celebrate the death of a black cop"as if there isn't a belief within the black community that black cops are traitors or worse than white cops. When I say worse, I mean more punitive, etc.

He let him functionally search his car without even being asked, to take his legally owned hand gun, and then let himself be pat down for a traffic stop. I'm not anti-police in the least, and this is insane to me. This is a goddamn bridge too far.

I wonder how white this guy is.

Wonder if this is the right place to post this.

I just got a call from a number I didn't recognize. What I usually do for numbers like this is, rather than pick up, I research the number online to see if it's a robocall. There are websites that let you report whether a call is a telemarketer or a robocall or something like that, and the call I got was definitely one of these. I live in a highly Spanish-speaking area, so a lot of the calls like this that people get are in Spanish, just stuff for loans, etc.

One person was rather, um, enthusiastic about this.



I guess I shouldn't be surprised that a racist would be able to use a robocall to fuel their racism. Of course it has a top rating. v_v

There are a couple posts like that that make it to the front page every couple months. Does this one at least have a "as a black man" part in it?

The best part is that Philando Castile was killed for doing exactly what this guy says he did. He told the officer that he was a licensed carrier and had a gun in the car, and then got shot almost immediately after.

He should've let the cop reach into his pockets and get his ID for him, I guess.

There are police videos that literally taught cops that seemingly innocent people can be hiding weapons or booby traps in anything, including fishooks and razor blades lining their pockets and clothing seams just to cut up cops who try to search them. We're lucky when we don't get shot on principle at this rate.

Do no make direct eye contact with a police officer, this can be seen as confrontational. Do not smile at a police officer, showing teeth is a sign of aggression. Do not make any sudden movements. Never put your face next to a police officer that is eating, especially if it is a Red Zone case.
