Happy 95th Birthday, your Majesty.
God Save the Queen.

Seems Harry was none too popular among most members of the Royal Family. The Queen...and his brother, father, and sister in law spoke to him, seems everyone else shunned him.
Nothing he shouldn't have expected.

don't take this the wrong way but

Could be your "First Gentleman" one day, when Meghan becomes President.

People are wondering just how long it will be until he returns to Britain.
Might not be long  before Americans twig to what others already know.
You mean that except for the bare minimum for appearances the royal family are racist, elitist scum? We already know that.

If,  as reported, the victim was lunging at another girl with a knife, then this case may turn out to be quite different in terms of use of deadly force.   I suspect it will hinge on what other deescalation options were tried.   I will say I'd hate to be an officer having to make a split second judgment call on a teenager lunging with a knife.   And few are marksmen who can take out an arm.

Wait. What? No...didn't you read? She's an innocent and good girl. Kind to everyone. Loving family. Which is why she was in a foster home and why she carries a knife.

Here we go again.

If one of us is getting "the fuck out," it should be the person I banned once already.


That would be Larry.

Btw, you're still wrong.

But, behave as expected.

Larry got a time out.

You were banned outright.

You lie like a carpet. Talk about "behave as expected."

And there's a reason you can't answer my question. You're no better than Ward or Kid.

You just can't handle anyone disagreeing with you, josh. Your pedantic ways fail, when others' philosophy doesn't align with yours.

Meanwhile you ignore the bike that spews from those with whom you see as leftist teammates.

Or you'd give a timeout to a few others here.

Same as it ever was.


Your own system is broken.

You preach tolerance, but show little; advocate discussion, yet act to silence others.

And you can't get over the fact that some of us aren't here seeking the approval of others or affirmation of their every utterance.
Why do you post here?

Meanwhile in NoVa....

You have to wonder how many cops like this are out there and then imagine how many lives have been ruined just because they could be ruined.

https://dcist.com/story/21/04/16/va-judge-tosses-elon-wilson-conviction-amid-police-bias-claims/

Maybe you should wonder more about:
According to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the number one killer of black males ages 10-35 is homicide, indicating a higher rate of violence than any other group. Black females are four times more likely to be murdered by a boyfriend or girlfriend than their white counterparts, and although intimate partner violence has declined for both black and white females, black women are still disproportionately killed.

Your concern trolling is tiresome.
Even at face value it is a stupid thing to say. It is like saying you should not devote yourself to raising money to find a cure for multiple sclerosis because cancer kills more people. But then two things I have noticed about people who make this argument: they do not themselves give a rat's ass about doing anything about black on black violence other than pretend to deplore it, and they are invariably racists.

"The others said of Squealer that he could turn black into white."

Ahhh..when you get challenged or uncomfortable, label your questioner a troll or a racist.

Lame.

In that case, you’re being an asshole.

Not to be outdone Nancy Pelosi blurted  out this :


Thank you, George Floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice.


Thankfully it did not take long for bi-partisan condemnation of such a stupid statement.


On this we agree.   Pelosi appears to be aging out of her position and I hope she can gracefully step down.   I find comments like that difficult to respect,  no matter how kind her intent.


Oh, please.

Your revisionist history is entertaining. You got banned for repeatedly attempting to out private information about another poster. And a timeout for a personal attack about private life.

Timeouts don't yet come for people's "bike," Ham, or all of us just about would be in permanent banning.

And your comment that "You just can't handle anyone disagreeing with you, josh" is hilarious. As I already said, there is a reason you cannot cite when you last admitted you were wrong about anything, Ham.

I make mistakes. I admit errors. I post articles that demonstrate that I was wrong about things. And I admit ignorance in bunches of areas.

That you wish to paint yourself as the victim when you are called out for your trolling behavior, while accusing others of having a "victim mentality" is par for the course.

I am pedantic at times. It would be nice if you could see it in yourself, as well, because you are no less so than I.

And better still if you could own up to simply being wrong from time to time.

This is me not holding my breath.

Yeah, cause all the good girls carry knives and brawl in the street.

Just as George Floyd became Jesus. Funny thing about Jesus. He didn't resist arrest, though he was arrested. He was not an addict, nor did he have a criminal history of violence and resisting arrest. His supporters didn't riot in the streets of Jerusalem. They also didn't get 27 million shekels from the Jerusalem city council. He suffered and died, but truly for others, and was aware that was what he was doing at the time. That status wasn't created for him.

So, let's not turn this 15-year old into Joan of Arc, okay?
