    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    I brought it up and I wasn't defending looting. I was challenging the idea that the destruction of a dollar store hurts the community. Dollar stores are parasitic. They drive out local grocers and suck out far more value from a community than they return. Only about 3% of them have any fresh...

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    Did you read a word? I said nothing of family businesses. Looters and dollar stores are both enemies of family/local businesses.

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    I'm not justifying looting. I don't think looting is a strong political strategy. I do question the assertion that the people are hurting their own community by doing so. They hurt a business whose profits do not flow into the community and whose business at best is a net neutral, but more...

    So you just think of insults as opposed to rebuttals. You must be super duper smart.

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    I'm not being a jackass. I'm trying to determine when you can disobey a police officer. According to you it appears to be never with 3 exclamation points.

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    Dollar stores drive local grocery stores out of business and most areas with them still are food deserts because of a lack of fresh food options.

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    How do Target and Dollar Tree help the communities where they are located? They squeeze out the competition of local businesses and then offer really crappy low paying jobs. Then they still make large profits by extracting value from the community that goes to shareholders that don't live in the...

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    Do you follow police instructions when they ask you to fellate them? That's an actual thing that happens and I would hope that when it does people resist. I'll let you figure out why that would be a good thing.

    I'm glad someone is thinking of the overpriced Chinese merchandise sold at the expense of American jobs.

    He's saying that his behavior should not result in execution. How do you make this leap from someone allegedly breaking a law to, them deserving to be executed?

    OT: Nets Twolves game postponed after police shooting

    People do care about it. None of the people who bring it up on message boards but people do care about it. The events don't have anything to do with each other but they keep bringing it up. Don't know why.

    OT: NBA & NHL Playoff Ratings - way down compared to past years

    Racist old white guys have lowest threshold imaginable for considering things to be shoved down their throat. Ironically none of them think waterboarding is torture.

    OT: Voting by mail (oh well, political)

    Do you think you should get more of a vote because you claim to make more money

    OT: Voting by mail (oh well, political)

    The law is illegal when this guy doesn't like the law. I get it. He took for granted how voting works. Now it has interruptedhis routine of wearing a stupid I Voted sticker to pick up his senior coffee at McDonald's on some Tuesday in November and now he is pissed that the world doesn't bend to...

    OT: Voting by mail (oh well, political)

    Imagine being offended that our voting methods are finally catching up to the technology of the postal service.

    OT: Voting by mail (oh well, political)

    The only technical difference is that a mail in is mailed to everyone and you have to request an absentee. The verification process is the same.

    OT: Voting by mail (oh well, political)

    It isn't just about volunteers. The volunteers need a place to go to. Judges decided that waiting would not be an undue burden in violation of the voting rights act. As a result the wait time in neighborhoods that are majority black is 3 to 4 times as long. That doesn't include the fact that...

    OT: Legitimate Distraction or Social Warriors at Work?

    "Inner city subculture" what could this mean? Could you provide some statistical evidence of this?

    OT: Legitimate Distraction or Social Warriors at Work?

    My cop brother in law shares with me complaints that the cops are getting a raw deal but in fact a raw deal to them is being treated like everyone else. Take for example one of his favorites. He complains that the LAPD had their budget cut by 150 million. Sounds big on the surface, but if you...
