He fills up threads with memes and links to articles you would expect from somebody with a room temperature IQ. Every thread would be better off if he was just ignored I tried, but the stupidity of believing that these riots impact only a portion of the population as determined by skin color pulled me in. It was like watching a person holding a an extension chord about to jump into a pool while screaming “LIGHT SHOW!”. I felt like if I just mentioned that it makes sense to think just a bit, I could make a difference. “If we can save just one moron...“. I was wrong. Onward. 2
Prickly Pete Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 I blocked him long ago. It's clear he is just here to clutter the threads, and I have no idea why people keep engaging with him. 5
SoCal Deek Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Having watched the rioting all over the country last night I cannot believe ANYONE considers this to be a legitimate response to a single action by a single police officer. This nonsense simply can’t happen every time some cop somewhere does something really stupid. Which this officer(s) clearly did and has now been arrested and charged for it! 2
RiotAct Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 just saw this on facebook... might be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read: ”Anyone who is putting energy into crying “the riots aren’t the right response!” is frankly less important than those who are pouring all of their energy into fighting racism in this country. I don’t really care how you feel about the appropriateness of rioting. Black men like George Floyd are being murdered in the streets every day. That’s all that matters and nothing else. So please just shut the ***** up and let the tired, beaten down, and oppressed people have their voices be heard right now” 4

This has nothing to do with what happened in Minnesota. The rioting/civil disobedience started over Memorial Day weekend and I'm not talking social distancing. This is a cultural problem.

You’re telling us that the rioting has nothing to do with Minnesota? Somebody better tell that to all of the ‘protestors’ with the George Floyd signs. Now I’m even more confused. 3

There are two posters (they may even be the same person), BillZStime and Warren Zevon, who have absolutely no interest in having any kind of legitimate discussion. They never engage in honest dialogue. They never respond with anything substantive when someone tries to engage with them. They post only to draw visceral responses from people. Neither one is worth the effort. 2 1 1

SoCal Deek Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Can anyone possibly take the latest display of social unrest seriously when the ‘outraged, oppressed and aggrieved’ are making a statement by looting a case of bud light from the corner convenience store.? Way to stick it to The Man! 2 1
