  1. So murdering somebody who makes you feel uncomfortable is legal now. Guess the guy who iced Brian Thompson should go free.
  2. I bet you think George Soros pays them too.
  3. It means that non citizens or people here regardless of legal status can purchase health insurance through the same system everyone else can.
  4. Having been present at a BLM protest that turned violent and got ugly in a hurry, I can tell you first hand the people who began acting violent and who caused damage were opportunists who had little to nothing to do with protesting and just saw it as an excuse to cause trouble. Also the local police force in a neighboring city initiated violence against an otherwise peaceful BLM protest, arrested many people wrongfully and lied in order to get them prosecuted as a criminal street gang. They're in the process of settling the lawsuit now.
  5. Nobody except for his family was exactly weeping over this guy dying. https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/scott-coles-the-story-behind-the-life-and-death-of-the-flamboyant-owner-of-mortgages-ltd-6450264#:~:text=It's pretty obvious that Coles,suicide and concluded their investigation.)
  6. Kind of shows you the kind of person he was. One of his grandsons was the governor of our state, and ended up resigning after being convicted of bank fraud.
  7. Henry Clay Frick being shot and surviving. Also the guy who created Girls Gone Wild, somebody broke into his house, held him at gunpoint and did things to him. Also we can't forget the guy who built the "killdozer" and leveled part of his town because he was angry at the zoning for his property. And if we're talking about political assassination, former congresswoman Gabrielle Gifford was almost killed, and several of her aides were killed, including a little girl, by a crazy person.
  8. This doesn't really have anything to do with politics. Also there is precedent for this kind of thing. When Henry Clay Frick decided to counter the Union's demand for a pay raise with a 22% decrease, he also hired Pinkertons to beat up striking workers. Then one of them broke into his office and shot him in the neck twice. But he didn't die, he lived for another 30 years before somebody remembered to drive the stake all the way through his heart.
  9. I wasn't aware BLM had a singular leader. I was under the impression that it was decentralized and was a collaboration of people who were loosely identifying themselves as part of a movement, not an actual structured organization. And if he is acquitted then I would expect protests. As are people's legal right in this country. Hopefully he isn't because he killed somebody and it was not in self defense. The reason he isn't being tried for murder is because he committed a different crime where he accidentally caused a person to die.
  10. I don't think this guy was anywhere near as famous or well known as either Lennon or Tupac. I doubt many people even knew who he was before this. I had never heard of him before. It's notable because he was seemingly killed because he made a business decision that apparently screwed a bunch of people over. But I wouldn't put him on the same level as actual celebrities.
  11. TikTok isn't a news source.
  12. The articles I read say the police don't think this is the work of a pro. But a true professional might do that intentionally to throw the police off so they don't start looking in that direction.
  13. What in the QAnon is this drivel? Did your AI malfunction?
  14. Because lying about bull*I poop my pants, don't laugh at me* that didn't happen to grift people like you out of money isn't a big deal? Fox News had to pay nearly 800 million and admit they aren't a news channel but rather an entertainment channel.
  15. Possibly. But they alone wouldn't have killed him. You probably think the police were justified in murdering George Floyd too.
  16. Did he get drunk and point a gun at police?
  17. You're playing semantics. He caused him to die. If the paramedics couldn't save him then the harm inflicted on him must have been pretty bad.
  18. I don't think anyone is justifying it. But there are enough people who maybe are affected by things this guy did, and have nothing to lose by killing him. It's not right but it's not exactly shocking to hear. I wouldn't say it should be a warning but if you dictate corporate policies like this, some people aren't going to exactly become your biggest fans.
  19. Just because you're unarmed when you kill somebody doesn't mean that it isn't negligent homicide.
  20. The point is that someone who was acting dangerously and pointed a gun at police wasn't killed, and a guy who was unarmed and acting erratically in public was iced by a random passerby. Maybe it was race, social class, whatever, but you cannot tell me there isn't a double standard.
  21. He's gotta keep the grift going somehow.
  22. Maybe if he was a rich, white, well connected former cop who pointed a gun at police he wouldn't have gotten choked to death. https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/rivals-slam-rachel-mitchells-plea-deal-with-ex-arizona-prisons-chief-18667178
  23. The remaining charge is criminally negligent homicide, which I think is appropriate for what happened. That is when you take an action that kills somebody by accident.
  24. He best Talaei in the pool but Iran protested so they wrestled again and Kolat lost 5-4.
