Okay so let's take a time out to note that Dark Tower is a crazy situation lore wise and a black dude playing Roland isn't really the weirdest possible outcome.

I thought Elba was a good choice, but them not giving him the blue eyes was a mistake. It was a mechanism used to show he still had hope despite the world crumbling around him and was constantly referenced throughout the books.

Other than that his looks, were pretty irrelevant.

I don't think McGregor was doing anything in the first three rounds. He was just full of vitality. It's not like he was successfully aggresively pushing.

Difficult to push against someone that basically turtles, but he landed a few great shots and rocked mayweather... McGregors chin just looks more and more impressive though. I just hope he doesn't pay the price for it and end up with brain damage.

"trying" in the first 3 rounds means risking a lucky punch.
instead he'll just defend for the first 3, at which point McGregor will have his power far more subdued and his stamina will steadily drain.


still could've done him in 6 but eh.

I don't think Mayweather was "not trying for 3 rounds" I think he was simply weathering the storm until Conors gas ran out. Was a small show of respect to Con's power before he schooled the fuck out of him for the rest of the fight.

Hmmmm... I still don't think it's "routine" but yes that goes more along the way of proving the disparity, compelling evidence. Much like that NYCPD lawsuit that was posted about the other day.

The fact that restraint is reported as being used less, is an obvious problem though.

From the other statistics I'd seen before it seemed like the amount of crime allegedly commited, compared to the amount of deaths balanced it out, but that article doesn't really go into details and I don't think anyone would deny that police target minority groups more for searches and things.

It's also a shame that learning being black was only 20% percent more likely to get you pulled over than being white, was actually less than I thought.

Yeah exactly that's what the shield wall they brought out later was doing, but I don't see how they could have just rushed into the situation and not incited the mob. Tensions were already incredibly and you're dealing with fucking Nazis for god sake, they're not smart individuals nor averse to violence.

I'm also not entirely sure what the police could have done in all honesty, you have two groups of armed protesters. One admittedly vastly more armed than the other, but it's I'm assuming an open carry state? Because if not that just makes it even more farcical.

But, for the sake of argument. What do you do, when a bunch of scum turn up armed to the teeth, that doesn't just massively escalate the situation?

Considering police routinely go nuts and shoot the shit out of black men who don't even have guns, maybe something better than "nothing"?

This is also bullshit, they don't do it routinely at all. More white people are killed by cops each year than black people, yet black people (cough bullshit, but in the eyes of the law) commit more crime. Your police are absolutely overly militarised though so the only thing that makes sense is they were trying not to escalate a shit situation.

Unless we believe the entirety of the police force is under the thumb of Nazis... which I don't believe.

Edit: Admittedly I wouldn't complain all that much if the cops had laid the beat down on them, but I don't see how it doesn't end in bloodshed and with technically innocent protesters getting hurt. It's a really fucked up situation.

...Well.

I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but that's some biased ass reporting:

1. The dude who was being intimidated by the shot was not, "using an improvised torch". He was using an aerosol can as a flamethrower to keep the nazis back. There's pictures of the incident from different angles showing as much.

2. We already knew the cops had basically been told to stand down for bullshit reasons, but that also applied to mr flamethrower.

3. Where exactly WERE the cops? Like I'm all for calling them out for doing nothing, but where were they? If they were only in the high vis and not on the otherside they wouldn't have had LOS on the idiot cowboy.

4. Is what he did actually illegal? This is something I've got no idea on but we've got some scholarly folk here, he clearly shot without intending to harm, but is just the act of shooting illegal? I'd like it to be, but you guys have some fucked up laws.

I think the fact that she lost to this, damages her irredeemably from a public standpoint. There was also too much damage dropped on her during the campaign. She looks dirty, Bill looks dirty, needs to back the fuck up and give someone that isn't tainted a chance tbqh.

Well... visibly tainted at least.

Also I was just laughing at the idea of her winning. I'd be in hysterics if she did, that would blind side me completely. I knew Trump was coming cus of the fetid smell Brexit left in the air and her campaign was somehow more garbage than his. But her coming back after that smackdown and winning. Yeah I'd be genuinely amazed, I can't envision it happening.

But then if you'd told me Trump would be President before Brexit happened and Hillary got dragged through the mud, I'd've laughed at that too. So who knows.

So with Trump's complete incompetence, do you think this will mean that in the future there is not as much power in the hands of the executive? Because that would be nice.

The more Trump gets into clashes with McConnell the more and more likely it gets that the Senate takes more and more power from the executive.

We already saw it with Russian sanctions where Congress voted to tie his hands.

If Trump somehow serves out his term i expect that by the end Congress will essentially be in control of most things other than the military.

So rather than fucking the establishment, he'd be... empowering and establishing it. *smokes the irony*

Not so much on the political spectrum, but the affiliated agendas associated with them. Absolutely. Trump was always going to be a disgrace and people should've known better. But as I've explained before, if you're constantly complaining about black poverty but more of the voter base is white and poor the statistics don't help you. Systemic oppression exists, but when you fight it by trying to sweepingly, and unapologetically generalise it. You piss people off.

If you're claiming the moral high ground you have to actually hold it. The rights don't give a fuck attitude, seems much more human and trustworthy in comparison.

Other than the Nazis/KKK the left behaves almost identically to the right, but the bare bones of their ideas are often better imo than the rights.

I think if the left just concentrated on bringing its Bernie's to the frontline, and stopped with all the bullshit they accuse everyone else of, they'd keep sweeping elections. But if half your front runners are talking shit about white people, and the voter base is 80 percent white people, you've done fucked up.
