My work was based out of Carson for awhile. I was always more concerned that the cops would fuck with me than any of the locals. They didn't have any beef with me. The mexicans and tongans that i worked with wouldn't go to inglewood though, so they always sent me or the other white guy to those jobs.

For what it's worth, they're probably right. Racism was ubiquitous at the time. It's unlikely that they ever envisioned a world where people of color are their equals.
I thought they were talking about the 14th though. Certainly the implications of the 14th amendment with regard to people of color would have been well understood in its time.

The founding fathers were long dead before the 14th amendment was ratified
That's what I just said.

I assumed you were smart enough to figure that part out seeing as how the 14th was ratified in 1868 and the founders were already older men 100 years prior...

"the founding fathers never meant for women to vote" "yeah, but the 19th amendment was certainly well understood in it's time" "the founders were dead when the 19th was ratified" *awkward silence* "yes, obviously"

Exactly. That's why the founders' intent are irrelevant to a discussion of the 14th amendment.
better?

Yes they are, and it is still irrelevant.

This smells like a bullshit story to me.
Quote:
A St. Louis police officer has been charged with involuntary manslaughter after the authorities said he fatally shot another officer during a game of Russian roulette.
Officer Hendren had been on duty when he met Officer Alix, who was off duty, at his home on Thursday and the two began playing with guns, according to a statement of probable cause.
Officer Hendren produced a revolver, emptied the cylinder and put one round back in, the statement said. He then spun the cylinder, pointed it away and pulled the trigger. The gun did not fire, the authorities said.
Officer Alix took the gun, pointed it at Officer Hendren and compressed the trigger. The gun still did not fire, the statement said.
Officer Hendren then took the gun back, pointed it at her and pulled the trigger. This time, the gun went off. Officer Alix was fatally shot in the chest, the authorities said.
Officer Hendren’s partner, who was also there and who was not identified, told the authorities that he had felt uncomfortable that the others were playing with guns and started to leave before he heard a gunshot, the statement said.

Wait, wut?
Quote:
The president of the Houston Police Officers Union on Monday tore into those targeting law enforcement officers, hours after a shooting left five cops injured.
Joe Gamaldi, the union president, gave an impassioned statement after the incident, saying “enough is enough.” Two suspects also were killed in the incident.
“Now I want to speak on behalf of the 5,200 brave men and women who work in the Houston Police Department and the other 800,000 police officers who are working these streets every single day, are putting their lives on the line,” Gamaldi said. “We are sick and tired of having targets on our back. We are sick and tired of having dirtbags trying to take our lives when all we’re trying to do is protect this community and protect our families. Enough is enough.”
He also had a message for those calling police officers the “enemy.”
“And for the ones who are out there spreading the rhetoric that police officers are the enemy, well just know we’ve all got your number now and we’re going to be keeping track of all y’all and we’re going to be making sure we’re going to be holding you accountable every time you stir the pot on our police officers,” he said.
I'm sorry, but what does a narcotics raid gone bad have to do with anti-police sentiment? And did this guy just admit to some vast cointelpro-style operation to go after folks that who criticize the cops? Is he talking about something official, or some sort of vigilante action?

That was an unfortunate incident. I normally would jump all over the cops on something like this, but it seems like it was just one of those rare times when there was a cop around when you need one. Enlil would probably say that this is an example of why cops shouldn't be armed while on duty.

yeah, i thought the 7 people lyric was chuckle-worthy from an american perspective as well. the whole concept of a bat wielding gang of hoodlums at the beginning was pretty hokey too. like something from a michael jackson music video or The Warriors or some such. Very dated.

Had a pennywise listening dude-bro tell me once, when pressed that he was being a dick to me because my flip-flops and long hair indicated to him that I'm not alpha enough to defend myself. I agreed that it could indicate that or it could just mean that I'm more that prepared to kick his ass barefoot. Then i pushed back from the bar and he folded like a little bitch. All of a sudden he wanted to be friends. So alpha  Most over the top macho dudes are actually pussies when it comes down to it

that's a fairly inconsistant position to take, given your feelings about public ownership of firearms.

he's saying that the phrase "chimp out" is racist as fuck and that people who use it are fair game to be called out as such. He's right. Also, he's already turned in his mod powers.

I've seen lots of bailiffs with those arm pantyhose that people use to cover over their tattoos. Always figured they were ex-military
