Also, thanks to everyone who posted the impotent flailings of gamer bigots because their computer character had offscreen gay sex with a man. Really brightened my day.



Oh man this post made me realize I skipped a page and the soldier 76 stuff is beautiful. Hoping the next move is to make Reaper gay too and the reason they had a falling out is because they broke up.

Edit for anyone not a dumb nerd: reaper is the skull and shotguns edgelord character and he was on a team with gaydad before they had a fight about leadership or something and he left and got mutated

Fats Dominar is on the case


Borden’s sentence being so heavily suspended is almost certainly due to his age and it being a first offense. in general terms we should be in favor of this type of thing since we don’t exactly want to toss children into the wood chipper of the American penal system.

however it sounds like this kid’s dad is the real fash and poisoned his son’s brain. also if Borden is a true believer idealogue it’s already too late for him to become a real person. in that case the suspension is not appropriate. but the “””good””” news is he’s almost certain to reoffend during his probation and will immediately go back to serve big boy time plus whatever his new sentence is.

also reading that article, holy hell, they really went all out with the sentence. the guidelines top out at like 4 years, he got ~20~. if you count only the non-suspended part then it’s right smack in the middle of the guidelines. the defense was asking for like 1-2.

the judge is imo being smart here. he knows how likely it is Borden reoffends now that he’s being sucked into the Nazi lifestyle. he wants to give him a chance to not become a lifer dirtbag, hence the huge suspension, so when Borden gets out he’ll have ten years hanging over his head as an incentive to stay good. if he can somehow find a new track for his life then it’ll have been a good decision to spare him a decade in prison. if he can’t then the sentence kicks in and it doesn’t matter.

Yeah, I thought the judge did a good job with the sentence. He structured it in such a way that it won't be appealed, since the defendant came out on the lower end of actual jail time, but if he does anything wrong for the next two decades, he gets the book thrown at him.

Also I dunno if it was Molly or someone else, but I saw someone point out that the way the sentence is structured, it isn't just loving up on release, he also has to keep clean during his jail time or else the full sentence kicks in.

quote:

GOP Ejects Charlottesville Hate Marcher James Allsup After Daily Beast Exposé

the whole article is full of :yikes:

quote:

In an Identity Evropa podcast earlier this year, Allsup recommended listeners work with “three or four fashy goy [fascist, non-Jewish] friends” and “take over your school’s College Republicans group and move it to essentially being an alt-right club.”



quote:

Other local Republicans gave Allsup a more sympathetic platform, with one local GOP leader hosting Allsup at a Republican movie night and announcing that the Charlottesville marcher had been “label lynched.”

Also made me think of Rupert Tarsey the hammer attacker turned Republican party secretary

https://www.browardpalmbeach.com/ne...amation-9779249

quote:

Despite Claw Hammer Attack on a Girl, Republican Party Secretary Sues Blogger for Libel

quote:

Tarsey, for his part, is claiming Lauder is not a real reporter and received his "media credentials from Candyland." He claims Lauder published at least six articles on RedBroward "that contain multiple instances of false and defamatory statements.”

Among other grievances, Tarsey says that descriptions of the hammer attack on RedBroward are inaccurate and that he is repeatedly misquoted on the blog. He also takes issue with Lauder's posting a letter sent by a former Broward Republican chair to local party members, in which Tarsey is said to have intimidated and threatened his critics.

The success of the defamation claims could hinge on whether the court deems Tarsey to be a public figure. If he is placed in that category, his burden of proving defamation is higher.

based on letters the guy’s written from jail he’s probably doomed, his fashy dad is clearly proud of him for beating up that nitroublemaker. but I don’t fault the judge for at least trying to give him an out. this is something we should see more of with young people convicted of violent crimes: a moderate sentence to avoid further radicalization in prison, with a huge suspended portion to drop the hammer on them if they can’t get their poo poo together.

ideally I’d like to move away entirely from incarceration and towards restorative justice, especially for young people, but Nazi street brawlers are not where we want to pilot that program.
