I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Had the same thought, but the people that passed the bill actually don't give a poo poo about women's sports in the slightest. Transpeople are the new Other, so it's time to make people afraid.

Buddy, they don't give a gently caress about women period.

Probably could have worded that a little better myself

Well it sounds like they have to pay a doctor to verify you, which is still gross as gently caress. Does sound like its written to legally also apply to men's teams which means you can bludgeon it to enrage everyone's parents and get it repealed.

The point of malicious compliance is to break the system and force them to give up on the whole process. Hopefully the courts just work faster. Or Florida sinks into the sea and takes its whole state government with it.

They'll just move into the statehouses in Montgomery and Atlanta

So you're saying the 21 year old criminal, who is on probation and is a prohibited possesor of firearms, who brought the kid to an alley to shoot and then handed the kid a gun, did nothing at all to contribute to this poor kid's death?

The ultimate blame goes to the cop but to say no one else failed the kid is preposterous.

Maybe the 21 year old shitbag who was hanging out with a 13 year old and shooting at cars late at night and the pig who shot the 13 year old can share a cell.

It's definitely not preposterous to immediately look for other people to blame when a cop murders an unarmed child though, no sir.

Every revolution evaporates and leaves behind only the slime of a new bureaucracy


https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/16/us-police-officers-public-officials-crowdfunding-website-data-breach

Only quoting some parts of this. Bolding mine

quote:

A data breach at a Christian crowdfunding website has revealed that serving police officers and public officials have donated money to fundraisers for accused vigilante murderers, far-right activists, and fellow officers accused of shooting black Americans.

In many of these cases, the donations were attached to their official email addresses, raising questions about the use of public resources in supporting such campaigns.

[sic]

Rittenhouse, who became a cause célèbre across conservative media throughout late 2020, and was even supported by then president Donald Trump, held a fundraiser on GiveSendGo billed as a contribution to his legal defense. According to data from the site, he raised $586,940 between 27 August last year and 7 January .

One donation for $25, made on 3 September last year, was made anonymously, but associated with the official email address for Sgt William Kelly, who currently serves as the executive officer of internal affairs in the Norfolk, police department in Virginia.

That donation also carried a comment, reading: “God bless. Thank you for your courage. Keep your head up. You’ve done nothing wrong.”

The comment continued: “Every rank and file police officer supports you. Don’t be discouraged by actions of the political class of law enforcement leadership.”

Another anonymous donation of $400 was attributed in site data to an email linked to Chris Andersen and carried the comment: “I think that Chief Acevedo is part of the ‘unrecognized form of police corruption’ that Chris Anderson [sic] wrote about in his book’. Hang in there guys!!!”

another $100 was associated with the official address of Michael Crosley, an engineer at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a body which is charged with maintaining the US’s nuclear weapons stockpile.

Lynda Seaver, director of public affairs at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, wrote in an email that Michael Crosley had made “an honest mistake”, and had “never intended to use his Lab email on this matter”. :laffo:

Since the forums died:

Liberty University filed a lawsuit against Falwell Jr. On the poolboy thing

Feds flipped an insurrectionist Oath Keeper and are putting him in witness protection after his guilty plea (and they're hanging charges of him bear spraying capitol police over his head)

Biden reversed his position on lifting Donnie's refugee cap, but is speeding up the process and changing the mix (more coming soon, it appears)

Gosar, MTG, and Boebert are forming an America First caucus in the House, out-and-out white nationalism in the founding statement

Well the window for any kind of uprising is definitely closing with all the unmanned killer drones that are being produced / designed / deployed. That's if people in this country broadly wanted radical change, which it doesn't appear they really do

Nobody really understands why Biden isn't lifting the cap, because he stated he wanted to a few months ago and Donnie already attacked him for it. Either him or the administration is looking at the polling data (he's net-negative on anything immigration or refugee stuff) and suddenly getting cold feet.

I'm irrationally hopeful that the cap gets lifted in a few months once vaccines are 100% available and chudfucks can't yell about refugees getting vaccines before (white) Americans.
