To Be A Coward

[Horace]

I posted that video of the prosecutor upthread. She is so completely on the nose for woke white high status professional females gone nuts.

Sweet.

[Horace]

Awesome. But it means that one or more jurors were unbudgeable from guilty on the more severe charge, then voted innocent on the more lax charge.

I guess it is a hint that there were few such people on the jury, maybe only one, who wanted guilty on count 1.

[Horace]

Or depending on what "hung jury" actually means for count 1, they may have all agreed on not guilty there, but disagreed about the specific reasoning, and whether they were therefore allowed to consider count 2.

Im happy for Penny but nevertheless the damage has been done. The next subway hero will know that what Penny went through wasn’t worth it.

[Horace]

Right, getting involved in shit is a thing of the past. You should defend yourself, but it is unwise to defend anybody else, if the combination of skin colors is of the volatile variety. Just another hidden cost of the virtue warriors and their fellow traveler DAs.

I would not like to see that sort of escalation of the politicization of this. I also suspect Penny would refuse the medal.

At the next election. His predecessor (Vance) had that job for 12 years. His predecessor (Morgenthau) had it for 34 years.

Vance is the son of the former Secretary of State.
Morgenthau was the son of the former Secretary of Treasury.

Not everybody on this board knows what they are talking about.

I won't name names. There is too much at stake.

Hate-read the whole thread.

I’m glad I had the opportunity to vote against him three times. Third one took.

[Horace]

I hope those of you who identify as white will take his words to heart.
