There was a kind of long time in my education between the time that I learned how to cite sources, and when I learned how to find out if sources were worth citing. Clearly, a huge chunk of Americans got the first part of the education but never got the second.

I was about to say that this is a pretty decent take, but then I realized he's probably saying that "unrest" is bad, and not the things that are causing it.

IIRC, part of the scandal was that Tiger was hiring prostitutes.

So yeah, Lester is saying Black Unemployment is higher than White because Tiger hires white prostitutes instead of black ones.

It's nice of him to point out the Dems' admirable slaying of fiscal restraint in a time of economic crisis, since that is in fact the right response.

Guns never represent guns in a Ramirez toon. They are always a stand-in for some abstract concept, like fiscal irresponsibility or gun violence.

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.



Payne somehow managed the worst comic in that grouping by many miles. God what a lovely person. Even Ramirez can see the way the winds are blowing and poke at trump.

Payne doesn't always have the worst takes, but theyre always slimed over with boomer privilege.

Normally, going to work doesn't cause you or anyone else to die from a viral pandemic. It still sucks to be an indentured servant to the 1%, but it wasn't an active threat to public health in the before time.

I was gonna ask why paynes on such a tear regarding whitmer, but he probably lives in Michigan, going by his email. I guess its like how alles refuses to shut up about Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania; he himself is being inconvenienced, so that's the most important news of the day.

Payne lives in Bloomfield Hills, a suburb of Detroit that's 90% white and is the third-wealthiest municipality in the country. His accusations of Democrats being nose-in-the-air elitists are pretty rich coming from someone who can go weeks without seeing a black person or a house worth less than half a million dollars.

Ah yes, this is what I want lady justice to do, extrajudicially choke people to death.

Maybe don't draw the good character doing something strongly associated with something horribly vile.

I was genuinely unsure if it's that or if the cartoon is actually saying that it's the police who get treated unfairly by the justice system. That poor man was charged for a crime after all.
But the cool sounding speech bubbles and the badge make it a bit more clear, what the artists intend is. It's just that he has a hard one for violence.

I believe what's happening is Justice is preparing to lower Its rear end on (Not Sure?)'s face.
