Are there any racist institutions? How and why.
Motorin' replied to TakeYouToTasker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
This probably isn't Ahmaud Arbery. Arbery's skin is significantly darker. And this gets to the point, the McMichael's assumed it was him on the past tapes when they could not have known it was him. And they assumed felonious intent on his part on the day of the shooting. In most of the lynchings that happened to black people in American history, the people conducting the lynching believed the person had committed a crime. They formed a posse and believed they had the right to carry out an execution. The McMichael's had called the police. Yet they felt like they had the right to form a posse and pursue with guns, to detain him at gun point and to shoot him when he fought their arrest. I guess we shall see what Georgia law says about modern day armed posses, and if the federal government steps in. -
Graphic: QBs hurt most by drops last year

So he had 2.4% more drops while completing 6% more of his passes. Sounds like more passes were on target to be dropped in the first place. -
What have the Democrats done in the past Four years

For many people who actually suffer from the disease of addiction, the idea that it is curable can be deadly. Way too many examples to count of people who went years and years sober, thought they were "cured" which meant they could have just one beer. Relapse can and does lead to death... It's better for sober addicts to fear the disease and know they are never "cured." -

The effects of drugs are biological and psychological, thus the effects are not inanimate. Addiction is also a disease, which explains why some people just can't overcome their cravings. Blaming addicts for the actions of drug dealers who capitalize on their illness is off base, in my opinion. -

There'd be no drug dealers if drugs didn't have addictive properties. -
The 8 Levels of Control Revisited--Are We There Yet?
Motorin' replied to 3rdnlng's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Interesting, so the alleged scheme to world domination isn't found anywhere in the book that the newspaper clipping cites. But it is in a different book! I'll order it on Amazon today. What was the title? Here's an interesting quote that Alinsky did write, : “So as far as the Communists went, there were several special things that kept me out. Partly it was philosophic…I hate dogma. People who believed they owned the truth have been responsible for the most terrible things that have happened in our world, whether they were Communist purges or the Spanish Inquisition or the Salem witch hunts.” -

Are your sure about that? I'd love to see it printed in his words rather than just take your word for it. -

Welp there you have it, I stand corrected. It's printed on a geocities looking website, so it must be true! https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-alinsky-social-state/false-claim-saul-alinsky-listed-a-scheme-for-world-conquest-creation-of-the-social-state-idUSKCN2252LY -

Do you guys care if this newspaper clipping is false, and that Alinsky wrote none of that? -

You don't see the initial face to face confrontation in the video. That part is cut off as the second car pulls over. From all of the available information, the white truck drove past him and then blocked the right lane of the road while the second car drove up from behind. The men in the pickup truck tried to "arrest" him with guns drawn on him. One man in front of the truck with a shotgun, another in the bed of the truck with a handgun. The lawyer who leaked the video thought that the video would exonerate their friends, because in his mind if Aubery had just surrendered to the arrest he wouldn't have been shot. Except in no world that we live in can citizen chase down unarmed persons in the middle of the road, block them in with their cars, draw guns on them and arrest them. That's called vigilante justice. You're discounting that the second car that was filming also had an armed man in it. One car drove past him and blocked the road in front (which you don't see in the video), and one drove up from behind to block the road behind him... I don't think these guy's thought process was "let's go kill us a black man." I think they legitimately thought he was a criminal, and they believed they had the right to take guns, track him down and bring him to justice. Had they actually been uniformed officers, legally they would have had the right to do exactly what they did. -
Just watched Replay of Bills/Pats Week16
Motorin' replied to BobbyC81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, on further review. 4th and Goal to beat the Pats and win the AFC East. Dawkins was the worst on that play. I mean epically bad. He had rushers on his left and right and he fell down on his face. Both of them became free rushers with a clear line to Allen. Had it been just Ford's guy he was pushed far enough to the outside that Josh could have just stepped up. But no, Dawk fall down. Also, Knox is one on one with McCourty and that's kind of open. -

Maturity. And with maturity comes learning how to harness stress and focus your decision making. I'm all in on taking the route of patience with Allen, to give him the time to develop the mental aspects of his game. I'm not in the camp of "you either have it or you don't." He shows signs of improvement, and I believe he will continue to improve. -

Abery might have trespassed that day. He might have stolen something from a garage, through it doesn't appear as though anything was reported stolen. That's not an excuse for three armed people to pursue and accost a person with guns drawn. People are outraged because had the video tape not existed, there's no reason to believe there would have been any arrests. Trey Gowdy gets it: -

Motorin' replied to BobbyC81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I watched that play several times. It looks like he panicked a bit and over strided which slowed him down, then sort of fell down instead if jumping. He might have had a play in the ball if he accelerated and got to his high point. -

No, you're not the only one. There's a justice for Gregory and Travis McMichael fund set up. And people are circulating a meme that has Ahmaud Abery in a hoody with a hammer and Timberland's looking like a gangster. The shooters say they saw surveillance footage of a burglary suspect in their neighborhood from a previous robbery and that the jogger matched the description. I hope you never get harassed by anyone waving a shotgun around. And I'm sure it's possible. But I doubt it would ever happen to you because you "fit the description." -

The police had the video since late February, and only after it was leaked to the press did the state of Georgia step in and investigate. Within two days the state officials made the arrest. One if the local DA's had worked with the father, and came to the conclusion that the father and son were in the right to invoke a citizen's arrest. The man in the car behind the jogger who was filming was their neighbor. The father and son called him to assist them. You can hear him c0ck a gun in the video. He may also be charged. -
yeah man, i don't know how anyone could find that ***** relaxing in any way.

As much as us Bills fans put Jimbo on a pedestal, we overestimate his career on the field with our idolization of him... Will anyone be able to live up to the imaginary standard we set? -

And only keeping 8 on the OL. Unless he gets injured I see Daryl Williams competing for the starting RT position and making the team. -

I find it interesting that someone who feels the need to reduce people's intelligence to comparisons to animals is offended by the issue of race.
