Out of curiosity I did some cursory googlin', and the first recorded instance of Asian-Americans serving in a US military engagement were Filipinos under the command of Gen. Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans.

iunno why people act like there's going to be some great catharsis of alt. right twitter people going 'oh no, im meltinnnng' when trump loses they'll immediately go 'HILLARY RIGGED IT' and literally nothing will change, except some of them will get even angrier and more aggressive, and twitter won't do anything to stop them from threatening to kill people

Geostomp posted:Unless they pull something to make the Oklahoma City Bombing seem tame, that's not too likely. The Republicans deliberately killed off funding for the DHS to investigate right wing terror groups so they know that these extremists are a large source of support. This is precisely what I'm afraid of. I'll be amazed if we get through Election Day without someone being killed by (or killing) a 'poll watcher,' let alone what happens once it becomes clear that Trump has decisively lost.

Stealing a page out of Tight Booty Shorts' playbook, moments like tonight remind me that white people can be terrible and I wouldn't mind if we went extinct or at least hope for whites to become the minority soon so the minds of white Deplorables explode. That part about going extinct is facetious (sort of).  I apologize on behalf of white people everywhere.

drilldo squirt posted:I wonder if this is how people felt when they saw lynch mobs get off with nullification. Probably not, since those guys beat, tortured, and murdered people while the Bundy crew were a bunch of assholes whose actions only hurt their stupid friend who decided to draw on the cops and got shot. Seriously, it would have been nice if these morons were convicted and it's not good they got off. But the repeated comparisons to far more serious cases of injustice is loving bizarre.

Um. People are angry and posting about it on the internet. I mean sure it's not completely rational, but I don't see what's so bizarre about it.

Samurai Sanders posted:You're right, the fact that they brought guns makes my gun-free liberal upbringing immediately yell at me that they are not making a "peaceable" assembly. I guess in the name of understanding in these divisive times, I should critically consider that. If exercising a right automatically equals an illegal assembly we're turbo-hosed dude. Think about what you're writing before you write it.

Telsa Cola posted:Considering juries dont have to tell us why they picked what they did sure why not? I promise I see the appeal of this kind of thinking, but it's really, really scary from a defense and even death penalty perspective, and really overstates the effect this verdict would have either way. Let me use a different example: Someone's been accused of murder. The media is convinced that person is guilty and has gone non-stop wall to wall coverage. Nancy Grace has been shrieking about the case for months. It also turns out in the course of the trial that the specific law in this case is really ambiguous and the Prosecution doesn't prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt, but the Defendant is also No Angel. Time for the verdict! Option A. Not guilty! Charges look blatantly ignored. Mass national outrage! Victim's family devastated. Murderers around the country empowered because our justice system is so weak and ineffective. Option B. Guilty! A Bad Person is locked away forever and the streets are safer. America breaths a sigh of relief. Murderers stop planning murders because of this strong judicial showing. Previous crime victims who didn't see convictions hope the system is finally moving towards justice. I know that's absurd but I'm trying to highlight why jury verdicts based on politics, projection, and feelings aren't a good thing. As neat as it would be if criminal cases were decided by virtue of what the most progressive verdict is, that's not really justice. Plenty of other people haven't received justice they should have gotten either, and that's terrible, but just flipping the positions doesn't really solve anything. Also, straight up, a conviction in this case would have done nothing to militia groups who already see the government as illegitimate. Personally, I suspect if/when the Bundys or the next group actually does get convicted, they'll just be seen as brave martyrs. None of them are going to pack up their guns and go home because the Bundys got charged with possession of firearms in a federal building.
