  1. Didn’t Kimmel do black face on that show and demean a ton of women before becoming a liberal media darling? I do t remember Rogan on it but I also didn’t watch a ton. I just remember that trampoline lol
  2. I’ve exhausted your rational ability to discuss this boss. Enjoy your weekend !
  3. Maybe his VPN got bonked
  4. And didn’t the guy who blew the whistle accuse people above him of making him do it. So if one had logic. It may apply across the board no? also there are only 7 precincts in dc. I know you’re good at math because you are a geologist. ….. but that’s a decent swing to influence #s there.
  5. I may have found some of the more extreme vocal left people on here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16vQeiScFD/?mibextid=wwXIfr
  6. You don’t like him cause he changed teams. Admit it.
  7. Idiot protestor. Protesting cops arresting a drug dealer. On video are the drugs and the $$$$. This is the left. Yelling and screaming fascist. Hope they arrested her too.
  8. Why do so many people watch it then?
  9. Paid protesters demand up 400% in dc lol
  10. Mildly wrong lol. He’s hilarious and a superstar these days boss. Not liking him doesn’t change that.
  11. The writers didn’t make up the content it’s pretty well documented The creators and writers of The Wire, particularly David Simon and Ed Burns, drew on their real-world experiences and knowledge of the Baltimore criminal justice system to depict the phenomenon of "juking the stats" . David Simon, a former police reporter for The Baltimore Sun, spent a year researching a Baltimore homicide detective unit for his book Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets, where he met Ed Burns. Ed Burns, a former Baltimore police officer and later a public school teacher, provided first-hand insights into police practices and how statistics were manipulated within the department. Their combined experience and research informed the storylines, including those related to the pressure on officers to improve crime numbers, notes Medium explains. This pressure often led to tactics like reclassifying crimes to lower categories or making arrests for minor offenses to create the appearance of crime reduction, according to Medium. The Wire then extended this idea to the school system in later seasons, showcasing how similar pressures led to manipulating standardized test scores. Beyond their own direct experience, Ed Norris, a controversial figure convicted of corruption and with past ties to law enforcement, also worked as an actor on the show, according to The Hooded Utilitarian. The show's creators strove for realism, populating the series with characters based on real individuals and casting non-professional actors to portray the "faces and voices of the real city". This focus on authenticity, rooted in their journalistic and police backgrounds, was crucial in portraying the complex and often dysfunctional aspects of the institutions they explored, including the pressure to "juke the stats" within the police department.
  12. There is a 20 year old critically acclaimed show on hbo called the wire dedicating two full seasons to pd in liberal cities juking stays. That’s their word. It’s not like this is a new concept to help mayors look good and get re elected
  13. It’s been posted 50 times that the dc pd was faking stats. It’s also been posted that the democrat mayor asked for national guard in front of congress. @red viking won’t acknowledge any of those. It’s just pure unadulterated hatred of t even the news casters CNN are gripping they don’t feel safe etc
  14. The national guard have full time military jobs?
  15. Rogan is one of those old school lefties converted to the right…. I’ll find it but he was talking about a topic the other day taking the liberal side of the argument so he is not a winger. To use your words
  16. Was Al Capone a murderer. Probably. Was he convicted of murder. No.
  17. He was convicted of procuring and soliciting. In that court of law. Correct. That’s not the actual diddling is it? I’m no lawyer but I think it’s not.
  18. I’ll say again. He should have been convicted of more. I bet that’s where your astounding belongs. I don’t think procuring or soliciting means he was convicted of “doing it”.
  19. Epstein should have been convicted get of more yes. But was he convicted of what you said above? What does the word solicitation mean in legal terms ?
  20. Enjoy the weekend Rasta
  21. The DAs need an overhaul too crime is down ?
  22. Thank you sir
  23. Wanted to get that on to see if opinions align boss. Call it a scientific experiment.
  24. Gotta run. Ai had an interesting take on your question So what might Republicans and Democrats say about hyperbole? Republican View (Generalized) Pragmatic exaggeration: Many conservatives embrace "truthful hyperbole" as a legitimate rhetorical style. A famous example is Donald Trump’s own term—coined by his ghostwriter in The Art of the Deal—to describe exaggeration used to emphasize or persuade rather than deceive Wikipedia+1. Cultural flair: This style is also rooted in a broader tradition within conservative media and politics—using bold, dramatic rhetoric to captivate audiences or make a point stick WikipediaThe Times of Israel. Democratic View (Generalized) Caution against overuse: Democrats often criticize the use of hyperbole in public discourse, especially when it veers into misinformation or defamation. While hyperbole per se isn’t inherently false, when politicians overstate to the point of misleading, many Democrats raise concerns about truthfulness in civic debate. Push for factual clarity: There's typically a stronger emphasis on grounding statements in accuracy and nuance—especially amid concerns over misinformation and "alternative truths"
  25. So you do or don’t think he should be arrested ?
