It's easy to get off of jury duty if you want to. I tried to stay on jury duty once but when the prosecutor found out I had just finished law school I knew I was gone. I made that SOB use a strike though!

Back on topic, and maybe Occam's Banana can move these posts into another thread. Mike Johnson Surrenders: Democrats Seize Control of House Floor https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/04/19/mike-johnson-surrenders-democrats-seize-control-of-house-floor/ BRADLEY JAYE 19 Apr 2024 Democrats are in the minority no longer. In a stunning historical development on Friday, Democrats seized upon a Republican surrender to take control of the agenda of the House floor.

LOL. I'm going to use that one today!

My wife filed for divorce today. We got into a huge fight when she found out I had been hiding a missing toe on my left foot with a prosthetic. I had lost it in a work accident years ago, before we were married, and I was too ashamed to tell her. I had no idea she would get so mad.

Epic.

Interesting yarn. Yeah I was looking for the drone footage too but I'm not going to dump on CCTelander. :) But you know what's scarier? Real life! No way in hell I'd go into some unexplored cave after seeing these videos:

Without the details of both cases it's impossible to tell. But it's beyond silly (and both sides do this) to pick random events in different states with different laws and typically different circumstances and try to make and issue based solely on the races of the people involved. Recently a black assistant principal was charged with child neglect for not doing enough to prevent a 6 year old boy from shooting a white teacher. His mom has already been convicted. https://www.npr.org/2024/04/11/1244174062/assistant-principal-is-indicted-in-connection-with-shooting-done-by-6-year-old

I don't agree with that outcome. But I do think it's a shame that it took 3 years for the DA to drop charges against Deshawn Douglas, a young black man, who shot an killed his white neighbor who was filmed getting up on Deshawn's porch to provoke him and then later tried to strangle the young back with a poorly done triangle choke. https://www.wlbt.com/2023/02/24/da-drops-manslaughter-charge-against-rankin-county-man-who-killed-his-neighbor-2020/ I can't find the video of the triangle choke itself but I've seen it.

What did this woman do? These two assholes were 13 and 14 years old. Why aren't their parents in jail, like the white parents that just got thrown in prison for a shooting carried out by their son? https://twitter.com/NatCon2022/status/1781134057784393913 1781134057784393913

Yup, piss poor judgment on his part, and he'll likely go to prison for the rest of his life. Unlike this guy. https://twitter.com/NatCon2022/status/1781185461907517632 1781185461907517632

She may not have been aware? How about she absolutely was not aware! I used to Uber drive and it's not uncommon for one person to order a pickup for another. And the Uber records will prove that at trial. I get it. He was being scammed. He still killed an innocent, unarmed, disabled woman who was trying to just get away from him because she had no idea what was going on. Had he said "Just wait right here and I'll get it" and went inside and called 911, she's still be alive, he wouldn't be facing a manslaughter charge, and the police might have been able to catch the perp behind the scam.

No excuse whatsoever. I'm trying to purge that.

When the man is in the middle of a scam that is threatening to murder some of his family and this Uber driver shows up to pick up the extortion money, even though she may not have been aware that was why she was sent there, there is more to the story than just an old bitter white man shooting an innocent black woman.

Horrible. But at least she's a grown ass woman. Where's this boy's mama? Oh yeah. Collecting his stripper checks.
