I know that cops are not trained like that--there's no such thing as a deliberate disarming shot. If they shoot, its supposed to be center-mass/shoot to kill. Of course, deadly force should be the last resort and they have a number of other tools they can use, assuming the taser isn't too uncomfortable to wear that day or something.

And assuming they don't have reason to think that if they don't shoot and another cop takes the shot they'll be fired even if they're in the right.

This is one of those Freeper quotes that at first just strikes you as normal Freep poo poo and then something niggles the back of your brain so you read it again and then the next thing you're conscious of is laying on the floor tasting pennies and the cat is pawing at your head and meowing in a concerned way. I mean, just look at it

I feel real bad for the women posting stuff like that. There's no way they haven't internalized some nasty stuff that has them convinced a severely dysfunctional relationship is normal, okay and maybe even good. Shouted denials of basic statements of fact are not a good sign in the slightest.

Seriously, go buy some old Playboys. Issues from the 1960s and 1970s are only a few bucks, especially if you find them at flea markets. It's almost difficult to find the porn in them because the magazines are 95% interviews, editorials, letters, movie and restaurant reviews, etc. The nude pictures get a small section shoved into the middle.

The issue I picked up at a flea market had an interview with John Lindsay, the Republican mayor of New York City at the time of publication. It's startling to see how incredibly different the Republican party was back then compared to now. Lindsay comes off as a moderate Democrat by modern standards, supporting black-owned businesses in Harlem and coming off as a very reasonable conservative. The same issue had letters from homosexuals talking about the harassment they got from cops (this was I think just a few months or a few years before Stonewall) and slyly suggesting that some of the undercover officers propositioning them to lure them into an arrest were repressed gay men themselves.

Old Playboys are a brilliant look at the culture of their time, and it's a shame they get discarded with a reputation as just useless porn.

I know of at least one novel series that got going because playboy published its first few chapters.

The New York Times just released Trump's 1995 income taxes, showing almost a billion in loss, meaning he would not have paid federal income taxes for 18 years. At 9pm on Saturday night. While he was melting down at a rally. Trump thread is flying with Saturday night party goons.

Edit: he also said Clinton probably cheated on her husband.

This is too short a post, every bit of it needs to be elaborated on because it all sounds fantastic.

So I'm not going to cover the threads on it, but the short version is someone found a clip of Hillary talking about the plight of some Millennials and how they've had to move back in with their parents and aren't being fully employed, etc... and somehow spun it into a hit attempt on Bernie supporters. It spread through the Berniebros like wildfire before they figured out they'd been duped and now a whole lot of them are royally pissed at the Trumpkins for pulling that kind of stunt. Trump rambled about Bernie in his rally tonight, so he thinks it still has legs.

Hah. That's a pretty funny contrast to the whole clinging thing, which the target of the disinformation still hasn't figured out.

Also I adore how the Trumpets haven't figured out that part of their consituency is nolifers who astroturf the poo poo out of polls and comment sections to make the world worse in lieu of having an actually satisfying life.

Aaand here's another thing that gets me, as if saying 'sorry, I'll do better' is somehow weak, instead of acknowledging a flaw and working to better one's self. Isn't that more, I dunno, ubermensch than denying any and all faults?

EDIT: I mean, it's like MRAs and the like trying to proclaim how much of an 'alpha male' they are by having a harem of subjugated women or whatever. What's so damned 'alpha' about forcing someone you see as weaker than you to serve you? If you're a real goddamn manly alpha man, you wouldn't mind a strong woman because she could help you, either through assistance or simple competition (if you're into that sport of thing) into becoming a better person. But nope, gotta proclaim my insecurities to the whole friggin' planet.

It's not about how high up you are, it's about how many people are below you. See also American racial politics.

Note: I'm not making light of a shooting here so do not take this that way. This is merely an example of the type of people that make up the Freep mindset.

Remember that couple that killed a couple cops and draped DON'T TREAD ON ME FLAGS on their bodies? Yeah Freep disavowed them as a false flag when in reality their entire motive was starting the great rightwing revolution.

Those people existed and did that. Freep may only achieve the heady heights of Malheur, but if similar people to the former don't kill people I'll be surprised.

I have always blamed their blood thirst fantasies on their ignorance and lack of exposure to other peoples causing them to dehumanize non-whites, seeing them as animals not people.

A couple of things. One is the idea that they're illegally voting, because a bus makes it easy for a large group of people to drive around to multiple polling stations and vote multiple times. Another is that middle class whites usually own their own vehicles, so that means these buses probably have a lot of non-whites on them. And you know that Freep thinks minorities voting is voter fraud.

A study done of white people shows 67% supporting voter ID laws when shown a picture of white people voting and 73% when shown one of black people.

Also lol at those people talking about Men Going Their Own Way online to whinge loving incessantly as if it's anything than sour grapes for not getting handed a subservient wife as a thanks for getting born with a penis.

Old white men who go on perpetual tirades about how everything scares them deciding they can lecture anyone on masculinity is always hilarious.

Masculinity is hurting others so badly and with so little discrimination (or more likely so much discrimination) that none of them can poke at the soft center at the middle of your frail psyche. They're a perfect example of it, so clearly they are perfectly positioned to lecture.

Now non-toxic masculinity on the other hand, they wouldn't know if it formed the pillar of their life and held their undeserving heads above water.

And all this remains amazing because as has been said multiple times before, most Latino immigrants are strongly Catholic and would have guaranteed a conservative majority for ages to come if Republicans had accepted and supported them, rather than painting them as scary criminals who will destroy our country.
