    regular reminder that the idea of “black on black crime” as a unique form of violence is an attempt to pathologize the general fact that violent crime happens between people in close proximity to each other, which in a segregated society means most violent crime is intra-racial.

    The group believes that Western civilization is under the attack by the “Magian/Nazarene” (Judeo-Christian) belief system, which it must destroy in order to uh, create an Aryan race that will take over the Galaxy.

    That's a real shame. New York could have avoided getting papered with records requests if it hadn't decided to hide police misconduct records for 40 years, but here we are.

    Sen. Borello voted against repealing 50a that kept law enf records secret because he knew this would happen: someone FOILed the Town of Cuba. No, really.

    “Police should be required to meet the same rigorous licensing and certification standards as hairdressers” is my radical new position

    Replying to @tomgara
    From the Globe: "Massachusetts is one of only a handful of states without a certification or licensing process for police, even as it’s created a complex system regulating licenses for barbers, electricians, and more than 160 other trades and professions"

    Harriet Tubman, a woman so tough that she had brain surgery in the 1890s when she was in her late 70s without the aid of sedation, choosing instead to bite down on a bullet.

    Harriet Tubman graces the Lee monument this evening, beneath a quote: “Slavery is the next thing to hell,” and “BLM.”

    I’ve gotten increasingly upset by how loud commercials are now.

    Today, I ask you for the most Dad things you've done in the last year. (You need not be a dad or have kids.) I'll go first: 1. For my birthday, I only asked for a pressure washer. 2. At the store, I said, out loud to myself, that there are "too many dang potato chip flavors."

    Moreover, when you read the details of some of these pogroms, it is difficult to escape the conclusion that some of them were so successful that we don't even, today, know that they even happened.
