General Discussion / Old couple killed themselves. I hope they're republicans.

« on: August 09, 2019, 02:17:34 PM »

Old couple killed themselves because they can't afford Healthcare costs.  Sad as it is, I hope they're Republicans.  It would be tragic if this happened to a couple who didn't ask for it but was put in this situation because of Republican policies.

General Discussion / ZDN will probably agree with this Trump logic about immigration..

« on: August 08, 2019, 10:28:42 AM »

Trump seems to think that if we had good immigration laws to keep these immigrants out, there'd be no shooting.  I'm sure theKing thinks so too since he's all about whatever the law says.

....this legislation with desperately needed immigration reform. We must have something good, if not GREAT, come out of these two tragic events!

MoscowMitch tripped, fell all over himself.  So much for fair and balanced, eh.  Maybe the new Russian trainee pressed the right leg button too many times.

You could say, he's literally got a cold shoulder now.

General Discussion / Dayton shooting. The Republican blame game starts now.

« on: August 04, 2019, 11:39:16 PM »

State Rep. Candice Keller, R-Middletown, said in a post to her Facebook page that blame for the Dayton shootings should be placed on the breakdown of the traditional family, gay marriage, violent video games, professional athletes who protest the American flag, recreational marijuana and “snowflakes, who can’t accept a duly-elected President.”

General Discussion / When you kill a black man in Tennessee, you get off scott free.

« on: August 02, 2019, 11:28:23 AM »

So a bunch of guys come running at a car with 4 black guys inside and broke their window and started attacking them.  The scared black guys drove off, these guys start firing at them and kill one of the guys inside.  They proceeded to chase the scared black guys around till they finally caught them.  So come the trial, 7 people were charged with attacking this vehicle and killing the black guy. During the trial, they claimed it was self defense because they felt they were in danger because these guys were in a moving vehicle and the twist: they were found NOT guilty.  Guess where all this happened? Yup, another one of them states.

Prosecutors made the case that the bounty hunters and bondsmen worked together to have an informant set up a drug deal in order to catch William Ellis, who'd jumped bond. Instead, they wound up confronting four men, including Johnson Milan, at a Walmart parking lot and opened fire when the victims attempted to drive away. Prosecutors said they then chased the four men in their vehicles, while still firing and ramming the car with at least one of their vehicles, according to victim testimony.

Johnson Milan was fatally wounded with a gunshot that pierced his heart and lungs, according to the medical examiner who performed his autopsy. The driver of the car Johnson Milan was in was shot in the neck but survived his injuries.
