    Sean missed. John step up ?

    That team is way better than its record. They were losing games in the last two minutes but playing at a high level for the first 58 despite missing half their roster.

    ICE shooting (murder?) in Minnesota of Alex Pretti

    Unfortunately, the only options to perform the investigation are the feds and Minnesota and neither are inclined to do so in an unbiased way. The best we can do as a population is look at the evidence for ourselves and make a determination, which it seems like a Rorschach test for everybody.

    ICE shooting (murder?) in Minnesota of Alex Pretti

    I found the Good shooting to be justified because the moment she decided to move the car was the moment the officer walked in front of it. As for the Pritti one, I'm hoping to see body cam footage to clarify things. Dude had been resisting arrest but looked pretty much contained at the time the shots went off. It was also clear he had a phone in his hand not a gun. I'm wanting to see if he had a hand break free because they knew he was armed or, more correctly, he had been armed a second earlier.

    ICE shooting (murder?) in Minnesota of Alex Pretti

    No. I just followed the story in local news. Efforts to block the performance had the side effect of free advertisement and the show got sold out. Its true I did sympathize with the protestors though. That trannies chose to stage a performance like this in a community like ours three days before Christmas time seems intentionally designed to provoke a response.

    ICE shooting (murder?) in Minnesota of Alex Pretti

    They were both actively interfering and escalated the situation. Denying that loses any credibility your argument has. Now, neither should have been killed for interfering, but both instances are gray zones as to whether they were indeed a threat to the officers involved and the snap decisions made to fire on them. It looked to me like Good had zero intention of moving her car since she'd positioned it perfectly to impede traffic and had not moved for three minutes, It was only when the office walked in front of it that she decided to go. I think that officer is innocent. With Pritti, its hard to see but we fo know he had a phone in his hand, not the gun. We also know that he been successfully disarmed a moment before he got shot. Its unclear to me that he had a hand free and if he was reaching for where the gun had been. If these guys had body cams, there'd be 4-5 filming the encounter, hopefully one of them shows clearly his hand. If so, we will see for ourselves if it was both free and moving or not moving to where the gun had been and that will determine my opinion of the matter. From a broader level, I see officers that are just trying to do their jobs under highly stressful situations with focktards all around making the situation worse.

    activist Judge convicted!!!

    I was just thinking about the absurdity of Tim's argument again in light of Minnesota dumb-dumb deaths x2. Tim conflates hiding a teenage girl living in her own country from people that want to kill her with someone protecting a domestic abuser living illegally in another country that only want to deport him. But that's the mentality / belief structure of these delusional people we are having to deal with.

    These aren't peaceful protests happening in Minnesota. Both dingdongs up there that got themselves killed thus far showed up intending to interfere with enforcement activities, escalated tensions, and put themselves in bad situations. By way of contrast, both the left wing anti-Ice protests here in downtown Pensacola recently are peaceful as were the right wing Pensacola protestors outside the Christmas themed drag show a few weeks back. Democrat politicians in Minnesota along with left wing media, egg on people to escalate the situation until this happens.

    Neo-Nazi shoots cops in Portland

    Andy Ngo is a well respected brave journalist who almost singularly, risks his life regularly to document the activities of Antica fanatics. Meanwhile, Eric Oelkers is a criminal who has been affiliated with the right wing Patriot Prayer movement and has been involved in their alterations with ANTIFA. Thats why ANTIFA hates both.

    You're the one that wants to link him to Andy Ngo without evidence and which, the chances they are connected seems extremely dubious. The guy is just as likely to be linked to igotworms who also lives nearby. Stood behind him in line at the grocery store in 2023.

    Shedeur Sanders is now a probowler.

    Usually around 230/240 on the pro tour, huh? So... not that. Although I did suspect as such for a few seconds when I opened this thread.

    Unreal. I fully expected to open this thread and find he quietly has a great talent at knocking down ten pins with a big ball, and had qualified to enter a sponsored event. No. He's actually going to Hawaii to play in the NFL All Star game with all the greats. How did that happen?

    I asked Google AI if Andy Ngo has any relation to Eric Oelkers and the results were as I suspected. None. But even if they played poker together every Saturday night for ten years, this wouldn't have anything to do with Ngo. https://www.google.com/search?q=do+andy+ngo+and+eric+oelkers+have+a+relationship&newwindow=1&sca_esv=35a3b6627eae767b&sxsrf=ANbL-n4uf8F9-9T2nGFbkpkj8TXsnl1XIg%3A1769482886454&ei=hip4aZ2lG57Sp84P1N6HoQU&ved=0ahUKEwidgIi33aqSAxUe6ckDHVTvIVQQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=do+andy+ngo+and+eric+oelkers+have+a+relationship&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiMGRvIGFuZHkgbmdvIGFuZCBlcmljIG9lbGtlcnMgaGF2ZSBhIHJlbGF0aW9uc2hpcDIIEAAYgAQYogQyBRAAGO8FSNQ-UPczWKI6cAJ4AJABAZgBjQKgAf0HqgEFMC4zLjK4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgOgAoAFwgIEECMYJ5gDAIgGAZIHBTAuMS4yoAe5GbIHBTAuMS4yuAeABcIHBTAuMS4yyAcNgAgA&sclient=gws-wiz-serp

    Its good that a guy with a long rap sheet who shot cops was apprehended. Name dropping Andy Ngo in this is ridiculous. and whatever else you have to say about him, I don't know. we'll see.

    Oh, no. Poor Minnesota. It's tragic what happens to people there. I guess their best hope is Michelle Bachman.

    So this isn't a live feed but from ten days ago? :( If so, I didn't know that. I had been viewing from in this thread, I'd not checked out the link on YouTube where the disclaimer presumably is.

    This isn't a RW blogger, it's an AP reporter in affiliation with Times Network, which (I never heard of but according to 30 seconds on google) is an Indian site. And live streams are "right now." If you want something from last night, you're on the wrong link. If there was looting last night as LW says, someone's probably pasted the relevant footage somewhere else online.

    Now the turds are putting up a makeshift barricade in the middle of the street. Another day in the life of having to put up with these a$$holes.

    Turned it on just in time to see the gas deployed, turds retreat, and agents advance.
