Oh wait wait wait wait. I get it, we're not even supposed to INVESTIGATE a claim and see if the person bringing it up has a record of being a lying 'garbage person' or not with a political chip on their shoulder the size of Delaware and some seriously suspicious conflicting allegiances and a timeline full of impossible holes.

Try harder.

no. you don't get it. I want some proof that Biden raped Reade. Apparently, the only person who insists he did was a garbage person who defrauded a ton of people before and after she worked for him!

Except, the only way you're going to feel validated against your hatred of Biden is if you can pound the 'he's a rapist!' alarm good and loud despite your crumbling case.

Lying liar that lies. A lot:

Rigged again. The most ridiculous primary where the DNC bent over loving /backwards/ to accommodate a whole slew of candidates all pushing to be more progressive than thou that got knocked out one by one until Bernie was the last survivor with barely enough delegates to get your hopes up before the voters told him to bugger off. Rigged. Yes, so very sorry. We somehow managed to get a bunch of non progressive socialists in the democratic party and didn't do a good enough job of telling them that voting for the other party made them enablers of garbage people and forbidden. That seems to be the only sort of primary you'll accept.

We /gave/ Reade the 'investigation' you insisted we give Ford. Turns out she's a liar! Funny that. But that doesn't change anything even when the facts are strongly against your side. When you say 'investigate' do you mean ignore the evidence against the woman's credibility and ability to tell the truth so she comes out smelling like roses and we toss the accused, no matter how shoddy her actual claims are, out the window?

Being a Bernie Bro must be so hard, what with seeing everything with that weird 180 degree vision of yours.

Have you considered, for a moment, the ratification of a system where a woman can cry rape, be substantially proven a liar, and we STILL have to agree with her?

Have you, perhaps, considered the idea that People Just Don't Want Bernie?

I know it's a hard fact to swallow, but the sooner you do the sooner you'll get rid of your anger and stop seeing conspiracies around you when it's actually a matter of you wanting the world to work in a way very quite different than what it actually does.

quote:

This year started with a virus which the main stream media and social media have continually censored and militantly blocked the truth of, while simultaneously cultivated and developed a ridiculous level of fear and angst over, which ultimately has led to the largest over-reaction by world governments in the history of humankind, destroying economies and wrecking havoc on the world over by imprisoning people in their homes and causing them to freely give up their rights and liberties through manufactured fear.

And then, after the powder-keg of isolation, self-imprisonment, and job losses reached a critical mass of frustration, a true and real tragedy occurs by a few corrupt cops who kill a man over a fake $20 bill and the world goes nuts all over again and start to destroy their own cities and the small businesses of their neighbors who had nothing to do with the act in the first place.

What's sick is that many people feel these violent protests are justified, that somehow three corrupt officers represent the integrity or lack thereof of 687,000 full-time sworn in officers in the USA, the overwhelming majority of who truly believe and understand their oath to the constitution and to serve and protect the public.

What's sick is that many people feel that violence against police right now is somehow justified. They think that burning down small businesses is somehow justified. They claim that looting and stealing is somehow ok because its a natural progression when peaceful protests go unheard or unaddressed. They speak of ethnic guilt or a ridiculous feeling of privilege that they have simply because they can't reconcile having when others have not even though the actions they took in their lives led to having while the actions of those others led to not having. But their humility and gratitude over their blessings has spilled over into a self-loathing, self-sabotaging ideology which leads them to be morally complacent with the outrageous rioting and looting that is taking place in the country right now...

Every race and ethnicity shares its own privileges and limitations in a physiological perspective, a societal perspective, and a geographical perspective. To assume or make the claim that any specific race or ethnicity shares any more privileges or limitations than any other in modern times in the United States of America is not only factually untrue, it cannot be substantiated by even anecdotal means. To assume or make the claim that systemic racism exists (meaning ACTUAL systems with ACTUAL rules, WRITTEN DOWN, which are ACTUALLY enforced and embraced by a society) is not only factually untrue, it cannot be substantiated by even anecdotal means.

Simply put, the myth of privilege and racism are used as shields by the immoral to trick and rationalize crimes against others.
Does Privilege exist? Yes. Does racism exist? Yes. Does evil and tragedy exist? Yes.

HOWEVER, privilege exists with those who are offered a shortcut that others don't receive, to those who are offered no limitations where others are offered nothing but limitation, to those whose actions or persecutions are never under a magnifying glass and never recorded by a thousand cell phone cameras, posted, inflated, and twisted by main stream media on a continual basis, to those who can burn down cities, loot, steal, and commit thousands of crimes in response to one without receiving punishment or recourse, and to those who can alter science to fit their desired realities and force others to learn and practice doctored science.

Yes, privilege exists, but not where you are brainwashed to believe it exists. True measurable privilege exists largely with those who claim to have no privilege, while true measurable persecution exists with those who are purported to have the privilege.

Yes racism exists, but not where you are brainwashed to believe it exists. True measurable racism exists largely with those who PROVIDE the privileges to those who they believe are lesser, to those who believe they are lesser and ACCEPT those privileges only to be enslaved by them and believe the false narrative that they are lesser that everyone else is more, and that they are entitled to shortcuts where others should be denied the same luxury, offered limitations, and brainwashed into believing that they deserve to start the race behind others, limited in their winnings, and embracing of guilt and shame for reaching the limits in which they are permitted to. In other words, the truly racist are those that so often accuse others of racism and demand others live in shame, guilt, limitation, and privilege exclusion.

What happened to George Floyd was terrible and watching what those police officers did was horrible. But nothing justifies what people are doing right now in his name and let's not pretend for a second that this is about him at all. How does stealing Louis Vuitton bags honor George Floyd? How does breaking into a pharmacy and stealing drugs honor George Floyd? How does burning down buildings and tearing down cities honor George Floyd?

None of what is happening is about George Floyd. George Floyd was simply a catalyst for the powder keg of isolation, self-imprisonment, and job loss.
It's why the WORST of all the violence, rioting, and looting, is in LIBERAL states, and LIBERAL towns, ran by LIBERAL democrats. These states had the WORST lockdowns which created the MOST PENT-UP ANGER, and gave away to the MOST OUTRAGE at ANY reason people could find to get out of their homes and RELEASE their rage in a fury of anarchy.

SO, good job democrats. This is what your world looks like. You wound and maim some races with privilege, make them believe they are unprivileged, convince them that everyone else who is truly unprivileged is actually privileged, and finally, cover and manufacture news in a disproportionate manner as to make the world believe that racism and persecution of others is the rule instead of the exception...

WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Civil war? Total dissolution and reformation of the country? Time travel or somehow phasing in and out of existence? Rapture of the entire line of succession followed by God throwing Trump back as an accidental +1.

“What President Trump did in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church, Lafayette Square, on the evening of June 1 was disgraceful and morally repugnant,” the bishops of New England wrote in a statement. “Displaying a Bible from which he did not quote, using as a mere backdrop an Episcopal church where he did not pray, and – more callously – ordering law enforcement to clear, with force and tear gas, a path through demonstrators who had gathered in peace, President Trump distorted for his own purposes the cherished symbols of our faith to condone and stoke yet more violence.”

I'm curious to know how exactly they define "anti-white" in this instance. I'm assuming "anti-white" just means "in support of black protesters and black lives" here. In which case yeah your cousin is a Nazi. If not, your cousin is still probably a Nazi.

LOTS of puzzling Questions about the Floyd George Incident:
1. Why does one photo from behind show the man on the road is not handcuffed and the video from the front that he is handcuffed?
2. Why is the cop car in the restaurant surveillance video different than the one Floyd was lying behind (different car numbers)?
3. Why were the cops in the surveillance footage that arrested him different than the police in the actual incident?
4. Why does the video show the diesel fuel price as 99 cents instead of the regular price in the area of $2.49?
5. Why does the police car have a non-municipal license plate with "Police" on it?
6. Why does Derek have a completely different police badge on top of a second police badge matching his partner's if they work for the same precinct?
7. Why is it not odd that both Officers Tou Thao and Derek Chauvin have both previously been investigated for excessive use of force and not charged by State AG Amy Klobuchar?
Additionally, Officer Derek Chauvin is married to his partner's sister Kelli.
8. Is there any cop dumb enough to continue kneeling on someone’s neck for 8 minutes when surrounded by people and being video recorded?
9. Is it possible for the deceased’s cousins and fiancé to be completely tearless during interviews?
10. Why does the main cop have one hand in his pocket most of the time he’s kneeling?
11. Why did the kneeling officer appear completely cool and calm, as if he was posing for the camera?
12. Doesn’t it seem strange that Floyd and the officer that kneeled on his neck worked security together on the same shift at the El Nuevo Rodeo Club, the officer for 17 years (both were laid off because of the COVID-19 virus)?
13. Why do the neighbors of this officer say they didn’t know he was a cop and never saw him in uniform?
14. Why has the same attorney been hired as with all the other big supposed police killings of blacks? Attorney Benjamin Crump. The same attorney that worked on previous cases that resulted in busses bringing in rioters from outside the city?
15. Why does store surveillance video show Floyd calmly and submissively walking with the officer and not resisting arrest while the officer gently allowed him to sit down on the side walk, and multiple officers calmly chatting with him? Is this the kind of suspect that a police officer would feel the need to put on the ground and place his knee on his neck?
16. Why did the EMT workers (wearing police uniforms including bullet proof vests) roughly handle and dump the unconscious George on the stretcher? This is not how trained emergency workers lift a person with a possible neck injury. Why did they not attempt triage or try CPR?
17. Can someone really not breathe when someone kneels on his neck and is the victim really able to speak for considerable periods of time if he can’t breathe?
18. Post killing: Why is a white man that looks like an undercover (St. Paul) cop in black and a riot gear mask carrying a black umbrella walking around breaking windows (and others dressed similarly starting fires) and instigating a riot? Is this reminiscent of “umbrella man” during the JFK shooting?
19. Why were almost all the rioters leading the destruction of the neighborhood at the beginning of the riots “white” and not from Minneapolis? In a black neighborhood after a police killed a black man?
20. Why did the Chief of Police make it a point that those inciting the riots and arsonists were not from Minnesota?
21. Why was a CNN News Crew not only detained but also Arrested?

What did I miss???
