I wonder if Republican Party bigwigs think that Dana White speaking at their convention will help garner them more votes.
Why wouldn’t they?
White spoke for Trump at the GOP Convention in 2016.

Wow,  the basketball thread makes this one look like a Quaker meeting.   


Yes,  the double standard with the Rittenhouse kid is not unexpected.   

When white people carry assault weapons into a legislature, they're free speech-ing.

When they bring them to a demonstration, they're protecting.

When they slaughter people in the street,  they're "helping" enforce the law.

When they get high and operate a firearm,  it's blowing off steam, boys will be boys.

This insane narrative is being run by pinheaded Nazi racist fucks, and needs to be called out by all decent human beings.

About the only thing good is this was a warning (which will go unheeded) which could have been much worse; only 2 died and another shot when this could have been a bloodbath, and this 17 year old jerk never got to become a cop, which would have been a future nightmare.


Self defense - some are saying now


This is why I asked in my post - what happened before he shot?

He went looking for a chance to use his rifle. He used it.

He was carrying it illegally and his mother should be charged, too.

He had a record for using his firearm while under the influence - and underage for that, of course, too.

Sounds like the makings of a career criminal. We're lucky he only killed the number he killed.

And somehow, he managed not to get shot by the police. Go figure.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Trump vows to stop the protests, slams the NBA, and continues to fail to address the Jacob Blake shooting.



It's being investigated.  Why would he comment?

Black male in Minneapolis down...cops beside him performing CPR.
'Usual' fires, looting, assaults erupted..reportedly...assumption Black male shot/choked etc by the cops.
Allegedly, Black male a murder suspect, shot himself while being  arrested.
Cops released video.

You expect anyone here to comment on that, bambu?

FIFY.

He sucked down an ocean of lies about his country and his place in it that made him unfathomably dangerous and misinformed. He went to a trump rally. He carried an illegal weapon past racist police who did nothing to stop him. He got out into the real world, shit his pants and killed two people.

In or out of prison, he’ll make someone a nice bitch.

Like you do, Kiidcarter8.

When has that ever stopped him unless the stoppage was self-serving?
