Shoved?

LMAO

I asked a question that I suspect had crossed more than just my and Maher's mind, that seemed topical as we prepared to celebrate together a new national holiday, that many were unfamiliar with. And there was one regular poster here who could lend their unique perspective to that question.

And we shared our opinions.

No harm, no foul.
 
But you got offended

BFD

Thank you one again for proving my point about Elba and its wokeness to anything that could potentially be perceived as politically incorrect.

Perhaps in the future, I'll ask a Catholic priest how he traditionally celebrates Passover or Ramadan.

Shalom my sandy and over-heated brother in the desert.

sun screen and hydrate



Happy Father's Day to those who chose that rewarding and at times challenging path.

Even money I will piss off someone.

A nonprofit organization started by Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors reportedly brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars in 2016 but claimed not to have made more than $50,000 in donations that year.

Dignity and Power Now, a group that Cullors set up in 2013 to help Black and minority prisoners, brought in at least $225,000 in 2016, but only disclosed $50,000 to the IRS, according to the New York Post. Since the group only reported $50,000, it did not have to file a complete a return or outline all of its spending and donations. Cullors is listed as the founder on Dignity and Power Now’s website.

Los Angeles-based Resnick Foundation gave the organization $100,000 and California Initiative gave the group $125,000, according to the Post.

Dignity and Power Now also reportedly did not disclose its donations to the California attorney general, which regulates charities in the state.

Al Capone did shit like this, too. And he wasn't even a "trained Marxist"!

After what happened at the Stonewall Pride parade outside Fort Lauderdale this Law is sure to be challenged.

Appears it was an accident.  Excellent job by authorities in not coming to Larry-like conclusions

https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/broward/article252236808.html

I’m glad it wasn’t an act of terror. I’m also cognizant of the FACT initial reports indicated a deliberate act.

Of course they did

The first "authority" was the mayor, who did say it was a deliberate act. So, the media report repeated what they had been told.

Then updated it with new info when it appeared.

But, Kid, what percentage of cars or trucks plowing into a group would you say have been accidents in the last few years?

Better off asking what percentage were accidents or justified.

You’ll probably annoy someone. Actually pissing someone off would be punching above your weight class. You have neither the significance nor the gravitas.

Have a good Father’s Day, you deluded freak. Stay safe out there.

I just watched Real Time with Bill Maher, a little known, pot-smoking libertarian white boy of privilege comedian satirist,  who has almost no following here in Elba. In any case he mentioned Juneteenth in his open, and wondered,

“Being the very newest of our holidays, white people, I must say, are very confused. Do we barbecue? Is there a mattress sale? What is the right time to start drinking? 2!”

People in his audience laughed. I suspect they did at home too.

Its sad so many here in Elba felt compelled to turn a joke into woke.

LMAO

Maybe if you had not shoved the "joke" at the only identified African American in the room, it might have been a mildly amusing joke about how we monetize even the sacred and less an attempt.to demean the holiday and belittle those supporting it to the one person here who would likely care most.

And yet, you never make the one Australian here feel welcomed

Nor any Trump voting white man

Sad.

[facilitatorn]

A!

If no one has trained you not to eat strangers’ vomit, you can take yourself to a class at Petco. It’s a better use of your time than posting here.

Fac just judging from a 25 year sample size, it seems I tend to piss off the clueless and superficial when I drill into them, and more recently the overly woke, as I don't buy the bullshit.

Whether you are pissed off or not, really isn't on my radar. You've given me no reason to bother with you.

Happy Father's Day to you as well.

As long as you are tagged as a threat and constantly located, no one gives a fuck whether you feel welcome.

Thanks Banks.

Stay fertilized and hydrated so your foliage shines out like the verdant canopies of yore.

(That was a fleeting impulse to explore multiple aspects of the use and perception of bullshit, something that gets flung in all sorts of directions quite readily in this precinct)

I'm a silver fox fac. I'm not going back to "green" anytime soon. I still have my leaves though.

Good on you. For me the big recent change is ivy climbing to cover previously bare patches of wall.

More hair in my nose,  less on my head.   And less on lower legs,  which I'm told can be helped by using shoe liners instead of socks.

Speaking of car rammings that aren't accidents...

You really wonder what is wrong with someone who would do this.   Clearly some rage,  and some disconnect from reality,  but how did they get there?

Al Capone didn’t get multi million dollar book deals, a YouTube contract nor was he named a MacArthur Genius Fellow.

Why don’t you go work for Okeefe so you can take any BLM affiliated organization down like his group took down ACORN?

Oh, yeah.

That was bullshit, too.

The best “why” is “why do you respond to that troll?”

Wow.

Not that it is the main issue but you do realize the cops shot this guy, even though they were not in danger
