    @George-K Lol

    @jon-nyc we made our own pizza every Friday for like 5 years. We used the Trader Joe’s dough that you have to roll out etc.

    Sadly, this is historically inaccurate. 1491 might be closer to the mark.

    This is the kind of pieces of shit cops in urban areas have to deal with all day every day. But you can't talk about the fact that the average black person in the cities who are under the age of 35 are just like this or you'll be called a racist. You also can't talk about the fact that these very same ghetto rats are just as aggressive and incapable of controlling themselves in a civil society just like this ghetto rat. If you point it out you're called a racist. But that term has no meaning any more because the Left has co-opted it to silence anyone who dares disagree with them on any point. White people have their own version of a ghetto rat. It's the slack jawed knuckle dragging redneck. But it's ok to mention them, you won't be called a racist over it.

    It isn't a racial issue, it's a cultural issue. There are LOTS of black people who are fine, decent people, just as appalled by people like this ignorant ghetto rat as anyone else. But as long as the black community as a whole fails to address this crippled culture among their youth, nothing will change. I will avoid a group of white rednecks out acting and looking like rednecks just the same as I will avoid a group of ghetto rats out acting and looking like ghetto rats, and for the exact same reason. Not because of the color of their skin, but because the odds are they are sorry excuses for human beings, ignorant, aggressive, and stupid.

    That George Floyd guy... they've had 4 separate funerals, each one lasting for literally hours. They've hauled his carcass all over the place so long he's probably stinking by now. Why? So they can be seen. Choirs, soloists, musicians, speakers, all more interested in showing off than thinking about old George. The family seems decent enough, but the chance to have Jesse Jackson and Am Sharpton come and hold court is just too strong. By the third funeral it was obvious it was nothing more than a show.

    Then there's the fact that an actual decent and good black man, a 77 year old retired policeman was shot to death by one of these ghetto rats and not a single word out of Al Sharpton, not even so much as a moment of silence in honor of his life. Then the fact that there are lots and lots of very decent, very intelligent blacks the black community could look to for leadership, but instead they label them uncle Tom's and continue shoving their collective noses up the asses of race boaters lime Al Sharpton - a man who doesn't give a damn about any of them other than how he can profit from stirring them up.

    There are a lot of decent black people who understand this, are appalled by it, and want the black community to stop playing the race and victim card and address the problems in this culture. Unfortunately, the number of ghetto rats are increasing.

    I think it is very cool. Does anyone hear geocache? A fun game like the treasure hunt mentioned above, but not for any money or treasures.

    I am sure since a long time ago, if someone of the party (generic) you dont agree with, you feel the world is going to collapse. And yet things seem to keep going along just fine.

    The Democrat and Republics all think the same thing - if our party was in power and we could do anything we want, the US would be this beautiful utopia. It is the other party that ruins it by doing (insert your favorite hate thing here).

    I dont think that most people in the US realize how good they have it. People always seems to want to complain about things that they dont have rather than be appreciate of things that they do have.

    Old liberals mellow with age. Today’s youth is not any more strident than the youth of my day. Basically they were just as intolerant and the same cancelculture ideas and methods.

    @George-K said in Blowback:

    What Was the Point?

    Charges were elevated against Derek Chauvin, and three of his fellow officers—those who were onlooking—were arrested and charged. Let's just start with that. The claim that they've done nothing is already horseshit.

    But also, Breonna Taylor's case was reopened. Minneapolis has banned the use of chokeholds. Dallas promulgated a new "duty to intervene" rule that now requires officers to stop their own who are engaging in inappropriate use of force. New Jersey’s attorney general reported that for the first time in 20 years, the state will update its use-of-force guidelines. And here in Maryland, the state created a bipartisan police reform work group to make recommendations to the state regarding proper policing.

    Pound the chicken some with a metal meat hammer, then cook at a lower temp.

    Pounded properly, most meat is satisfying.

    Seems like it should be egg laying day but i suspect it’s hatch day.

    What's your perspective on abortion for birds? Should it be legal until egg laying day? Or the first three days into brooding? How about eggs that are the result of rape (not uncommon in birds)?

    It makes sense.
    There must be some explanation for people venting frustration over oftentimes unexplainable reasons.
    It's as if a siren (dogwhistle) goes off, like in that old movie "Time Machine." Everyone just gets up, and starts marching, and the time traveler keeps asking "why?" and no one gives a plausible reason.

    "What Do We Want?"
    "Peace!"
    "When Do We Want It?"
    "NOW, you fucking moron!!"
