I attended elementary school, grades 1-4, in a tough area in New York City and grades 7-9 in a tough area in San Francisco. I was raised by my mom who received public assistance who dealt and used drugs. My belief system was influenced by my environment where I believed drug dealers good; cops...

I’m not quite following you. What specific examples of knowing lies are you refering to? Also, by cater, is it wrong to relay the seemingly valid good points of an author, even if they have some points that you don’t agree with?

I was taking in general terms. If someone says or does something, odds are high it was important to them, even if no one else understands it. The players directly involved in Floyd’s death were Floyd, the officers, vocal bystanders, the Blacks and other groups, and Floyd’s family. The...

Something more people should do is envision themselves in another’s shoes. Perhaps if we all tried to take the perspective of the major parties in the Floyd shooting, there would be less dissention. To dismiss someone’s opinion or actions out of hand is counterproductive. There is usually...

It seems there is no such thing as a post too racist for him. Kind of like a dumb Labrador Retriever trying to get your attention so you throw the ball as hard as you can down the hill.

In the case of Floyd’s death, the lead officer had 20 complaints on his record. Should there not be standards of police conduct? Is it possible the way an officer treats someone is how they will be treated in response? Could there be people attracted to law enforcement for the purpose in...

Oh no, smallfil has me on ignore. Where did I go wrong?

Attached below is an article I saw posted on NEJM.org. I don’t nessesarily agree with everything the author writes, but several good points are made: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2021072?query=featured_home

Suicide him, I’d say. As fun as that might be, writing his suicide note would be the best. If I’m feeling creative later on, I’ll write a proposed, tongue-in-cheek suicide note for him, subject to ET members input!

Reply to your post is inline, below: ="KCalhoun, post: 5132182, member: 51524"]With the highest deaths in the world from coronavirus and cases spiking to record highs.... Why are so many Americans so stupidly suicidal and stubborn? Even Fauci said there's an anti-science bias. It can’t happen...

Dictonary definition or social definition? Dictionary definition from Merriam Webster: Definition of racism 1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race 2a: a doctrine or...

That’s because we don’t have a racism forum. Oh, wait..

My eyes are popped. I don’t believe anyone have ever had their eyes more popped than mine. Democrats loving former Bush appointee and war monger John Bolton? Let’s check the CNN archives on John Bolton during the Bush years...

Actually, it shows Biden leading with men. According to the poll, Trump is behind in major categories of voters. Even accounting for poll result skew of 500 basis points favoring Biden, Biden seemingly has a comfortable lead in the poll. For now, anyway. Hopefully Corona doen’t hit big, in...

As exhaused we Trump supporting Whiteys are from trying to meet our daily quotas, we don’t even hold a candle to Black on Black homocide rates...

No clear evidence at the time? A new influenza-like disease and not knowing it’s severity, but with indications of novel characteristics should be a hint to most people with minimal intelligence to take protective measures. Many people already associate that wearing a mask around infectious...

Time to outlaw chainsaws. The guy looks Mexican, in a city that borders Mexico. Is he in the US legally?

I’m not joking, Richard Feynman could figure it out! Your description of the overheating problem leads me to believe you did not go through a thorough troubleshooting. I’m no mechanic, but obvious questions come to mind: 1. Did you check to see if the head is warped? A straight metal ruler...

There were two underlying points I was preparing to make from Richard Rhode’s book. However, I’m just not feeling that committed right now. Committable? Always. Time to go dark for a while. But the points were related to how massive Russian influence is in US politics are now bare ased on...

The Hamptons will be a designated no-go zone. Remember, some of the Democrat mob bosses have their homes there. If a mob, especially several mobs, get out of hand in that regard, I suspect we are a gene-splice away from a longer term, if not permanent solution to such unauthorized behavior...
