shit. find me a major american city, in any part of the country, that's not segregated as hell. i'd wager it's not just a southern problem...
Now is not the time for kentucky apologists.






Segregation in some places happens because of sociopolitical as well as fear based reasons.


"Kentucky segregation" is something all on its own. You know this.

I certainly did *not* mean to be a Kentucky apologist. Fuck the Old Age Mutant Asshole Turtle and Rand the Fake Doctor Paulvage both to the moon and back . . . just noting that the segregation you see KY is representative of a much larger issue unconfined by region.

Hot damn. Michelle Obama for President!

“What the president is doing is, once again, patently false, it’s morally wrong, and, yes, it is racist. But that doesn’t mean it won’t work.”

““Put yourselves in our shoes for just a moment, Imagine how it feels to wake up every day and do your best to uphold the values that this country claims to hold dear—truth, honor, decency—only to have those efforts met by scorn. Not only by your fellow citizens, but by a sitting president. What would possibly compel you to accept this level of chaos, violence, and confusion under this president and be willing to watch our country continue to spiral out of control? Because we can no longer pretend that we don’t know exactly who or what this president stands for.”

one more time......

I'm from florida.







My entire soul is a long ago scar tissued up scab.


You wanna see me disturbed, put me in the middle of a bunch of tech industry dickbags with millions of dollars who think they have thoughts about things. Equally as stupid but way more dangerous.

The reports I read said he was armed with a gun. No?
Of course you read that, it was submitted by cops. From what I can tell: no


Vigil protestors? They can go straight to hell.
I keep saying it over and over again: we're at the point where a population of real life, bona fide american citizens are saying 'please stop shooting us', and brian and KKKrew are responding with 'stfu and get back to work'. History, even american history has precedent in this. Shitbags all like to pretend they'd have been marching with MLK back in the 60's but they're doing the same shit today as the assholes were back then.

Do you have inside info that wasn't carried by the news? Or, is there a video?
Eye witness accounts on twitter at this point. In a week it will count as 'news'. Everyone there said the guy had his hands in his pockets. But to cops that means "was pointing an aircraft carrier at LEOs"

The cop version says he shot at them


Remember when michael reinhold was shot 'because he had a firearm?'

These are the same cops.

The larger point still stands: what crime were they solving? Even if he was pointing a gun at them, who escalated what? Because at a certain point this 'event' likely would not have happened if not for police presence. Anyone's life saved? Any property saved? If it's like most of these the answer is no.

Glad to see you’re reading a high quality news outlet there, JBP. :-) Do you ever listen to the livestream? So often very interesting, even when apparently random. Kim Hill and Kathryn Ryan are both pretty awesome. Kim Hill tearing some errant politico a new one is a thing of beauty.

I avoid talking heads like the plague. I quit watching TV when in high school, and movies sometime in the 70s. People conversing is a good thing. Theater, in my mind, is not.
