#1 please explain why he should have retired before now?

I can't wait to hear this insightful take.

Thanks for pointing out how I don't keep up with the news, incorrectly of course. While you were the one not comprehending what I wrote.

Way to clip half a quote, totally changing how it reads. Pro move!

#38 I don't think you digested my last comment correctly...

She got into the news cycle the image of Republicans leading a mob to AOC, forget the frightened part.

It didn't play out, but she was certain to get that imagery out.

Yes these other morons are posting they're afraid from threats made. But AOC made news out of what she imagined the R's would do.

True Tony she did definitely single out her co-workers. Of course none of them did actually divulge her location, or lead anyone to her. So it was pretty nice of her to call them out because she was afraid they MAY do it. Gets to point all the fingers at them, get it into the news that this is the type of people they are, without them actually having done anything.

So I'm wrong this wasn't an all about me move, it was a "while they didn't actually do it... Can't you imagine the Republicans doing this horrible thing!!!! I was so scared" move.

I'm not her fan, but she knows the game for sure.

Tony, I'll apologize for the drunk comment, I confused you with Chief for a moment. My mistake there.

How many other D-Senators were in the same position? How many made it about them? She has every right to post what she wants, and to frame the event from any perspective she pleases... Why is it so offensive to you to point out she chooses the one that focuses only on her?

Well, they didn't 'come for her'. As pointed out they could have, what they could have done etc... But they didn't. So my point remains that with all the things AOC could have said or done, many point to her to being a future head of the DNC, or President herself, she chose to point out how this event with effects cast wide affected her alone. Take what you want from it, I just don't know that other leaders would have gone that route. Maybe it makes her more human, and a better response than what other leaders would have done... It just didn't resonate right for me in the moment.

Tony an insult from your drunken mouth is a compliment so keep on FTFYing my statements for me and pour me one of what you've already had too many of.

AOC to self, I have to make this about me!

I can't claim to be any sort of expert in virology... But if all of our actions were only meant to spread the spike of cases out, and to not overwhelm hospitals AND the mortality rate of this virus is 4% doesn't this just mean that this is to be expected as it's about 1% of the population? While this number is large and is meant to be(and is) shocking, realistically shouldn't we be expecting about 3% more of the population to succumb to covid, before all is said and done?

This sounds like a study that if you removed what was being studied so that emotion was removed. We would laugh the validity of the study out of the room based on the sample size. 140 findings over 15yrs, and at a bare minimum 1000's of interactions in each of those years.

"Goyal and her team found that 140 adolescents died from police intervention from 2003 to 2018, and of those cases, 131 involved firearms, the study states. The vast majority of the victims -- roughly 93% -- were male, with an average age of 16 years."

Over 15 years with how many police interactions, 140 children of all races died. I'm sorry but that basically means that it is incredibly rare for a child to die during a police interaction.... But they decide to push on and dissect it down. Also, 131 out of 140 involved firearms. Since all officers carry a weapon, I have to assume that meant that 131 out of 140 kids killed over 15yrs were carrying a firearm. The more you read the more it sounds like we might have a problem with inner city kids getting their hands on guns, and other societal issues that push these kids towards crime and not a police killing kids(black) issue.

when the rules are to shoot until the threat is eliminated...

what. is. the. correct. number.?

You disagree with 7, so you obviously know the right answer, please tell us.

Danni, it doesn't matter if he had a gun. All he has to do is act that he could reach for one, and they will shoot to protect themselves. There are way to many videos of an unarmed person suddenly reach out of site and turn back firing before anyone could react, and the officer is shot. Once Blake reached out of site, he became that man.. and was then rightfully shot.

If you don't like that then advocate for people to not violently resist arrest, and reach out of site.

Otherwise 10 out of 10 times it will be deemed a good shoot.

You're all crazy AF if you defend the pos sexual assaulter who is there breaking the restraining order against him, who then fights physically with the police, who shrugs off getting tazed twice, defies the orders to not go to the car with guns drawn on him while holding a knife, who then reaches into the car with kids with the mother screaming don't let him take the kids... instead of the officers put into that position by that POS.

Finally something sensible in this case.

"but it's against my religion"

fly loser, fly!

I have seen exactly zero posts where Snoofy makes a valid point, What's your number?

So something that has no rhyme or reason to it, is okay with most posters here, even though it is financially ruining these small business owners? Yet you all claim to be champions of the everyman. Laughable.

Lamplighter,

I played a game of chess yesterday and took more of my opponent's pieces. They claim to have won though by checkmating me.

Since I won the popular piece count, shouldn't I be the winner?
