Whoa!

Deja vu!

I tend to post before I've looked all down the thread.   Trying to do that less,  save some keystrokes when someone else has already covered the same point.

Ditto.

I was recalling the last time I told Hammy to fuck off so I was wondering if someone was gonna attempt to goad me into engaging, right Jenna?

Just say no.

I will try to practice what I preach.

I refuse to engage with UNO and gave my reasons. I’m gonna practice this from now on.

Intellectually lazy individuals do tend to give up when faced with doing something that isn't easy to do.

Typical.

Just heard some ass crack on MSNBC that had a problem with whiteness on Long Island because she saw a bunch of anti Biden stickers and...wait for it...

American flags.

Guess she doesn't know what the flag really means.

I posted a link to the SCOTUS choice to ignore the male only draft issue in a different discussion group about 20 hours ago.

Seven 30-something folks have been batting it around since then, from many different perspectives, with disagreements and conflicts of opinions and backgrounds.

They've been positing together (along with another 100 or so) for nearly 20 years.

There have been no insults. No name-calling. No personal attacks or references by others to the home lives of their fellow posters. No innuendo.

Nor were they always so harmonious - there was plenty of vitriol spilled in the past. They've moved past it.

More than 120 comments exchanged so far.

Is this really beyond us?!

So, in other words, they're a bunch of pussies.

Lord have mercy....

Intellectually lazy Smart individuals do tend to give up when faced with doing something that isn't easy to do. that experience has shown is fruitless and in vain, like arguing with an intellectually dishonest troll like uno.

Typical.

FIFY.

Or maybe kid's recitation of what the unidentified person said is bull shit, distorted by his own bias, or more likely filtered through the views of someone who is deliberately twisting the statement for political purposes. Kiid's comment gives us no context at all.

Abstract

Introduction
Violent encounters with police represent a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the USA, especially among Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC). This study characterises trends in fatal police shootings overall and by armed status and quantifies inequities in mortality burden and years of life lost (YLL) across racial/ethnic groups.

Methods

Longitudinal study of Washington Post data on fatal police shootings in the USA using generalised linear-mixed models to capture trends with time and relative rates.

Results

This study shows that the rate of fatal police shootings for Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) is constant from 2015 to 2020. Further, BIPOC have significantly higher death rates compared with Whites in the overall victim pool (Native American RR=3.06, Black RR=2.62, Hispanic RR=1.29) and among unarmed victims (Black RR=3.18, Hispanic RR=1.45). Native American (RR=3.95), Black (overall RR=3.29, unarmed RR=3.49) and Hispanic (RR=1.55, unarmed RR=1.55), victims had similarly high rates of YLL relative to Whites.

Conclusion

 Fatal police shootings are a public health emergency that contribute to poor health for BIPOC. Urgent attention from health professionals is needed to help drive policy efforts that reduce this unjust burden and move us towards achieving health equity in the US.     

Wow. I was only shitting on Shartbert’s pitiful offering because though the title refers to fatal police shootings and the data marshaled in the piece refers to fatal police shootings, the weaselly authors’ thesis is that claims that police violence disproportionately effects BIPOC are not true while the only data that got cited as evidence only dealt with the much narrower circumstance of fatal police shootings.

Now it seems not only was the argument false and deceptive, it was also supported by highly questionable data.

You’ve lost the ability to surprise or disappoint, Ham. Go on behaving exactly as expected.

Better yet, get a pet rock you can bully so you’ll have at least one venue where you can score some points.

Whiteness ultimately drives down property values where ever it exists. It’s a false concept, a Christian cover for what is really an irrational and irresistible devotion to S&M.

Intellectually lazy individuals do tend to give up when faced with doing something that isn't easy to do.

Typical.

Notice you didn't respond to the Journal of Epidemiology paper I posted on the previous page, on fatal police shootings and differential rates between white and BIPOC victims. 

Guess your intellect is too powerful to engage with anything that's not from a Koch-sponsored RW think tank which is well known for issuing highly partisan and statistically flawed papers on issues.

When the shitbirds are just generally preening, I ignore it or give a gentle STFU. When they try to marshal arguments to support their anemic plumage, I find it worth destroying them.

I consider it an early draft of their epitaphs helping me become more prepared for the time soon when they have crumbled into dust and I am still here, educating their children. Public servants never sleep and do their planning and prep work well in advance.

And so, you think THAT is a rebuttal? I gave you chance to deconstruct the piece, a piece, btw, which I did not endorse, yet you and other twits felt that by posting it, I agreed with it. Nope, I just wanted to see if you clowns could actually make a case.

But...you didn't.

Amusing.

You've never had much ability at all except to toss harmless darts towards the board, the majority of which fall far short of their intended mark, but now you've underscored your deficits.

 

As for "bullying", all of that behavior on this forum comes from the leftists like yourself, Little Vatican Stevie of AZ, and Larry the Timid, Bartoon, and the rest of the Cabal Of Woke Folk, or COWFolk, as I prefer to call you.




The demonization of anyone who fails to Kowtow to the COWfolk is pretty clear to any casual reader here.

SSDD

Cow-ey on.

And remember, sheep aren't the only animals who get led to slaughter.

Oh? Was I talking to you? Are you the head Cow? I was waiting for Larry and Fac to offer a real rebuttal. Do they have you on retainer? Are you their spokesperson? Do they compensate you for picking up their slack?

I kind of skipped your post, but I will look at it, now that you've pointed it out, Cow.
