There is a reason that it seems like the people Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed were Black, and why lots of folks have made that assumption. Check out my analysis about why that is the case. spokesman-recorder.com/2021/11/16/%e2…

@BullyCreative Who in the world are these so called people who come onto concerned tweets and say people deserve their fate. If this true you heartless harlots deserve to die horrendous deaths yourselves.

And yes, today is the anniversary of the MPD killing of Dolal Idd. We forget so quickly and effectively.

@BullyCreative Brother DA they will never get to that point because it ain't about public safety it's about securing the safety of profits by making sure they keep Black ppl and the Other as close to the plantation and second class status as possible. And to do this by any means necessary

At what point do you say - enough is enough? If you are not particularly concerned with the violence and discrimination ingrained in MPD - does the waste of money, the corruption and ineffectiveness, them just being bad at the job of public safety, does that offend you?

Minneapolis, I'm going to break this to you as gently as I can. You can not even push MPD to be more effective on the things that scare you most (they always give you the excuse of being under manned) - do you really think they are going to be pushed to change their culture?

Lastly, and I will try to be as gentle as I can with this for you - replacing one cop with a newer cop, even newer and Blacker or more brown faced, does not change one thing about policing or the results. It didnt when they offered it up 20 years ago, it does not now.

The CDC announcement just demonstrates that they are a front for Big Business. This is irresponsible and not based on the science. So ppl can just expose others after 5 days so there can be business as usual?
Hannah Lichtsinn, MD@DoctorLix

Oh hell no @CDCgov. Your job isn’t to minimize “disruptions” (ie. people absent from the work-force while recovering.) Your job is to prevent the spread of disease across our population. This is atrocious.

She is right the kids will learn they will remember they will indeed be a force to be reckoned w as the challenge the values that put profit before people and the mechanisms to keep the workers divided.

NEW: Warrior Met Coal execs got bonuses this year while the striking miners struggled to afford Christmas gifts for their kids. But we visited Alabama with @GrimKim & saw an incredible outpouring of support for the miners—and their families—who have been on strike since April 1.

Jesus knew how to give us hope and real perspective. The rich don't have it all. Money will pass but the spirit lasts forever and one day us poor folks will use that Spirit to rise up and take back what's rightfully ours, the people, the salt of the Earth

@Josh_G_Roth So coaches are leaving players they said they were committed to all over the football landscape in the most sneaky and underhanded ways and the U of Miami is embarrassing itself. You are the one embarrassing yourself. You should have saved words and just told us you are a "hater"

Regardless on whether MC leaves Oregon. The University of Miami has completely embarrassed itself. They've treated their HC who is full of class like a pile of garbage. Why would anyone want to work for that University after this? Don't blame the media. This is on UM.

#KimPotterTrial I found it interesting there was little mention of the fact that a juror (52) said Potter arrived at a friends house to investigate an accident but began questioning why she was dating her Black boyfriend telling her she shouldnt be dating a Black man

@MCDal47 @thephatic @AlanTudyk Only someone very naive believes that the trial was about self defense. Rittenhouse left his home his state to put himself in position to harm people he did not agree with he was walking around looking for an opportunity to shoot folks. And he succeeded

@ChazBall @bobst_josh @msolurin You are being dishonest. It has already been revealed why this kid came to Wisconsin he was recorded earlier that week saying if he had his gun he would shoot folks. You because of your dishonesty are more dangerous than the avoid racists and fascists!@
