“Think about any workplace. Black folks need some person to go to, to strategize and be a mentor, and we just don’t have as many folks who can be mentors to us.” Maybe a white guy could be a mentor. Or maybe a person who has any old color. Or maybe someone with skin color that isn't very important.

Memorial Day Weekend: 52 shot, 10 killed. What laws would have prevented this?

They also don’t actually address whether the car was or wasn’t the one that was stolen.

@Horace said in Get some!: Singapore law enforcement is not forgiving, from what I understand. Caning...

@Mik said in Pasta is weird: It's not weird with this on it. [image: b12c2ec2-f11a-4b1c-bc27-5019125dc898.8831f34a953cd60b05e6afcc77ee3cf1.jpeg?odnWidth=612&odnHeight=612&odnBg=ffffff] Yeah, at that point the pasta is the LEAST weird thing in the room…

@Jolly said in Crossover: And probably prompted a new law. I HIGHLY doubt that.

Mine is generally you hit the target in the intended location. But the real problem is illegal guns.

@Mik said in Walking it back...: If I were president, the first time any staffer tried to explain away what I said they'd be crucified. If you were President, there'd be a serious wood shortage.

I bet.

He was probably carrying an assault weapon.

I chuckled, lolz

Wow.

Always looking for advice wherever I can find it.

@George-K said in Canada: You must sell your handguns: @Doctor-Phibes said in Canada: You must sell your handguns: I understand the concern regarding replicas - my son has a couple of airsoft guns, and you could easily mistake them for the real thing from a distance if you covered the orange tip - we made it very clear he wasn't allowed to take them out in the street. That has happened here in the US. Kid with an airsoft gun was killed by police a few years ago. Where I grew up, the police typically didn't shoot kids - but they didn't have guns, either. I know, what a concept. Yeah, where you grew up, kids typically didn't have guns either. We all had realistic looking toy guns, quite a few of us had .22 air rifles, but you're right - there was little to no gun culture back then. It's not quite the same now, but the regular police still aren't armed, by and large. Obviously, that's never going to work in the US, but it's still quite surprising, and also interesting is that the majority of British police officers don't want to be armed.

Funn-eee! I LOL'd.

Big plans. I hope they are more successful than can be imagined.

Video or it didn’t happen.
