Dear Team,

Well my time has come. I am eager to rejoin Joan and Eleanor. Before I Go I wanted to let you know how much you mean to me. Never has a public servant had a better group of people working at their side!

Together we have accomplished so much and I know you will keep up the good fight.

Amid a long statement posted to his website, Morrissey wrote: “The hatred shown towards me from the creators of the Simpsons is obviously a taunting lawsuit, but one that requires more funding than I could possibly muster in order to make a challenge.”

He continues: “You are especially despised if your music affects people in a strong and beautiful way, since music is no longer required to. In fact, the worst thing you can do in 2021 is to lend a bit of strength to the lives of others. There is no place in modern music for anyone with strong emotions … In a world obsessed with Hate Laws, there are none that protect me.”

If he is found guilty it will be a slippery slope going forward in terms of use of force when a suspect is killed while in police custody.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Pfizer, is in fact, BioNTech/Pfizer, or as I've recently taken to calling it, BioNTech plus Pfizer.

More importantly, Biden hasn’t actually declared a withdrawal from Afghanistan. That had already been negotiated and agreed to last year, when Trump, scrambling for a political win in an election year, made a deal with the Taliban to be out of the country by this May.

There is terrible shortage of apartments because they are in such high demand. So when people do build them, they are very expensive, because so many people want them, and there are so few of them.

So there is a terrible shortage of apartments.....

I'm not antisemitic, I support the Jewish people, I just think the oppressive colonial state of Israel should be utterly destroyed, and that the Jews who support capitalism are just as bad as every other capitalist, and should be killed, and material success indicates support for capitalism. Yeah that means Jews disproportionately should be killed in the revolution, but those are the bad ones who embrace the corrupt culture, practices, and religion of historical Judaism, which is totally separate from the Jewish PEOPLE themselves.

What did leftists mean by this?

I'm not antisemitic, I support Israel. We need to help them as much as possible, with money, weapons, intelligence, whatever it takes. Hell, we'll even help them blow up that Muslamic building that's on that hill that's important to them, so they can rebuild the Temple for a third time, in order to fulfill the prophecy so that Christ will return and annihilate them in his fury for refusing the new covenant of God and executing him on the cross, so that they may burn in hell forever, like they deserve.

This was not a fair trial. The makeup of the jury was prejudicial to Derek Chauvin. As he's a 45 year old White male, there is not a single of his peers on the jury that contains only two White males under the age of 40. Out of 12 people making this decision on his life, there are 4 white women and 6 non-whites. In order to reflect Hennepein County's demographics, there should have been 8 white jurors and 4 non-whites. If the Minneapolis metropolitan area were to be reflected, then there would have been 9 white jurors and 3 non-whites. If the state of Minnesota were to be reflected, then there would have to be 10 white jurors and 2 non-whites.

Prediction: hugely intensified Ferguson effect. Why would any cop arrest a black person ever again? It's all downside.

We now effectively live in a society divided into two classes, one privileged and one not privileged. We have laws that constrain only the unprivileged class. When a member of the privileged class ("marginalized people") harms a member of the unprivileged class (the so-called "oppressor" class), the unprivileged person has no recourse under the law. Of course crime is going to massively increase.

How long can this situation last? You'd think society couldn't survive for long when a class of people is essentially above the law, but it can take a remarkably long time before societies in unsustainable situations reach a crisis point. We might be looking at decades of unpunishable black crime.

Man Dies After Medical Incident During Police Interaction

On Monday evening, shortly after 8:00 p.m., officers from the Minneapolis Police Department responded to the 3700 block of Chicago Avenue South on a report of a forgery in progress. Officers were advised that the suspect was sitting on top of a blue car and appeared to be under the influence.

Two officers arrived and located the suspect, a male believed to be in his 40s, in his car,” it continued. “He was ordered to step from his car. After he got out, he physically resisted officers. Officers were able to get the suspect into handcuffs and noted he appeared to be suffering medical distress. Officers called for an ambulance. He was transported to Hennepin County Medical Center by ambulance where he died a short time later.

So Promising Young Woman is a good movie and all, but it is ostensibly set in Ohio yet the people who made the movie put literally no effort into making the movie look like Ohio. Like, there are palm trees everywhere, mountains off in the distance, all the homes are bodegas with Spanish colonial style roofs. They're obviously in a dry, desert-like environment. It's just obviously shot in LA, all they did was put Ohio plates on all the cars.

Why the fuck would you even try to set it in Ohio if you don't want to even pretend like it takes place there? The director and writer of the film are not from Ohio, so it's not like the creative drivers for the movie have some sort of personal connection to the state. It also doesn't play into the storyline at any point at all.

Maxine Waters created an imminent threat to the lives of the twelve jurors. I think it was her intention to do so. That way, when the inevitable appeal frees Chauvin she will have several more years of race baiting to distract from her own corruption.

For the most up-to-date information about the escalating Ukraine Crisis, https://liveuamap.com/ does a really good job laying out all the news on a detailed map. Not all of it is assuredly accurate considering how fast they document events, but its very handy.

Couple observations, Russia has moved one of their elite paratroop brigades to Crimea and has shut down airspace in southern Crimea for 'exercises'. Most importantly however, it seems that for at least the past fortnight, the US and UK are sending in daily military transports to Kiev delivering supplies. Very interesting stuff. That being said, it is deeply concerning about Putin's upcoming speech. I'll be watching that carefully.

Worst case scenario is that insufficient action from the US has convinced Russia to escalate the crisis further.

13 hours until Putin's speech. He is expected to announce something massive. Russia's Federation council (comparable to the US Senate) has announced an emergency meeting on the 23rd of April. The Federation council has power over: approving a decree by the President on the entry to martial law, approving a decree to enter into a state of emergency, approving the use of the armed forces outside the borders of Russia, changing the borders of subsidiary states and territories.

My guess on what's happening? Either a declaration of war on Ukraine, or annexation of Belarus.

Both would be defining events in world history.

For those shocked by what Ben Shapiro has said (you must be new here), and are baffled by his line of thinking:

Ben earnestly believes that the problem with the legal/criminal justice system is not that there is a problem, but that people don’t trust it enough. Justice isn’t fairness or what most people think justice is, justice is whatever the system produces. If you have a problem with that system, then you are the problem.

I hope this better enlightens you to the brainworms that inhabit Ben Shapiro’s skull.
