�reasonable� conservatives who keep voting for and thus boosting white supremacy are a major problem. But they�ll say they aren�t because they were embarrassed by a POTUS tweet once.

El Paso is chill as gently caress and some loving asshat failure from suburban Dallas driving i. to kill the evil El Pasoans is chef�s kiss Texas GOP poo poo. �E l Paso isn�t Texas, it�s Mexico� is a very common refrain among racist Texans.

In El Paso, we had a shooter who explicitly was committing terrorism because of racist right wing political views.

The motive in Dayton is unclear (and the investigators keep reminding people of this!).

It could maybe have been political? It might not have had anything to do with it.

But both sides reporting is irresponsible, and the right will disingenuously use both sides as a means to say right wing terror isn�t as big a problem as it is.

BTW, POTUS�s campaign still owes El Paso about half a million dollars but there�s probably no way to force them to pay.

The real story of Epstein suicide is that the prisons are corrupted and miserable and prisons could easily prevent suicide but don�t bother to all too often.

It�s a really cruel system.

But golly, now a bunch of people (not here) who miss prison rape jokes have decided to try their hand at prison suicide jokes just because Epstein was terrible human.

Would dearly have loved to hear the Q&A portion of those around 2016-17. "So, I can say grab them by the pussy right, that's not sexual harassment now? I'm just using some locker room talk."

I'm not kidding when I say that I had to, on several occasions, simply say that the UCMJ does not apply to the president, and that if you do what he says he did, you will get crushed by UCMJ and local laws and even if you're just using bullshit talk, you are in violation of army values and could get punished for harassment, hostile environment, etc.

Union-Chat:

https://nypost.com/2019/08/13/nypd-union-boss-sent-members-overtly-racist-video-in-email/

quote:

The NYPD sergeants� union urged members to �pay close attention to every word� of an overtly racist video that the group shared over the weekend � in which an unidentified narrator bemoans �Section 8 scam artists and welfare queens� � before quickly deleting it, The Post has learned.

�Pay close attention to every word. You will hear what goes through the mind of real policemen every single day on the job. This is the best video I�ve ever seen telling the public the absolute truth,� reads an email sent to union members Saturday and signed by Sergeants Benevolent Association president Ed Mullins that contained an embedded version of the video.

The roughly 15-minute video kicks off with footage from a fatal Los Angeles police shooting as someone raps, �Don�t make the blacks kids angry.�

�One of the most astonishing aspects of police work in an urban environment is that almost literally no one has a job,� the unnamed narrator says, descending into one of several racist rants during the nearly 15-minute video.

�A presidential administration succeeded in forever vilifying its nation�s police while simultaneously granting blacks crime as their new entitlement,� the narrator says later.

The video, which was also posted to social media Saturday, was quickly taken down and the union president apologized for the gaffe.

Mullins told The Post he had gotten the video from a retired sergeant who was a �pretty good guy� and hadn�t listened to the narration before sending it out.

Mullins said he had seen footage of the shooting before � without narration � and thought it would be a �good tactical video� to share for training.

It was taken down about two hours later, according to Mullins, after someone sent him an email asking, �Did you listen to this thing?�

�There is no one to blame but me for the video that was distributed,� Mullins wrote in a follow-up email to the union members apologizing for the video�s content. �For those members who may have been offended by the video, I sincerely apologize.�

This union dude seems pretty bad.
