wouldn't be surprised if someday as military research stagnates from grift, incompetence, and the ongoing stalling of basic science, they open up tours of area 51 to show off decrepit hangars and neglected prototypes in a "look, here is where we used to work on so much cool stuff during the cold war but look at it now WE NEEEED MOOREEE MONNEEYYY"

It extends further than just cold cash. Earlier this year, British scientists announced a new development (I forgot which one) through their studies of Stem Cell research. Somebody said that the USA probably would have discovered that if Bush in the 00's didn't ban stem cell research.

Oh great California just said you can shop inside all retail stores.

Edit:
Subject to county orders.

Orange County opened restaurant dining rooms this weekend and they're definitely doing retail the moment they can, I'm just glad so many office workers are still teleworking so traffic isn't bad yet. I'm just mad my company is run by chuds who are demanding everyone go back to the office to own the libs.

I don't know how racism works in America, but to an outsider the term African-American comes across as incredibly racist. Like why would you need to mention, in a roundabout way, the skin colour of the person supposedly threatening you are freedoms?

Like I'm here in Ireland and going about my business. If an Asian person called me out for not sticking to the rules should I report them to the pigs as an offender of Asian-Irish descent?

The term itself is not typically offensive, but the use of it here is very clearly racist and an attempt to get the guy shot.

She's using coded language to say if I call the cops they will murder you because you're black and I'm white so do what I say. And when she called them she had a panic attack at the thought of them not instantly rushing to her side to kill this guy

You think it's racist now, wait until you realize that their only saying that exact phrase because they expect the police to be the universal lynch squad, and that in some states, that would've worked.

it's the thinnest of veils only because she stops short of saying "and I hope they shoot you" but we all know what she wanted to happen

like the fact that someone in this thread had to ask why it seemed racist to them is why there was a modicum of obfuscation, and she probably had an idea that there was a slim amount of plausible deniability when she phrased it

The leash thing was incidental. She was trying to murder the guy for an EWB. Existing while black.

there's also a very specific history in the united states of white women weaponizing their perceived status of feebleness to threaten Black men in order to control situations where they are not being threatened, but rather inconvenienced

The woman who got Emmett Till murdered is a good example, especially by admitting on her deathbed that she made up the entire wolf-whistle incident

Unless he was afraid that she would react exactly as she did, and if the police were called it would be his word against her's

there are probably two dozen of these types of interactions that happen for every one that *does* get recorded

you're making assumptions without accounting for the filter
