What's the betting that it'll never be an "appropriate time" to a.) compare excess death figures and b.) perform a retrospective on the government's...

You're asking me to psychically read people's minds, I'm asking if he had the right under self-defence to reach for a gun. Not the same question. ...

Ah, but my concern has nothing to do with my personal choice to wear a mask. I'm trained in sterile technique and could use a mask in the least awful...

They think they're protecting themselves.

Arriving at it through a social contract line of reasoning is fine, and I'm not going to complain about that. I'm hoping I'm giving a good...

This is not a cop out at all. The only way we actually know if an intervention works is by testing it. You know all of the furor over...

That's a cop-out. It would be extremely unethical to run trials, so you can only get results through statistical analysis after the fact which isn't...

Protests are about what they actually do - the cause is immaterial in terms of how they should be policed or viewed from an impact standpoint. We...

You mean other than the fact one was over the police murdering someone and the other over idiots wanting the right to murder other people?

You want to know the difference between protesters in Michigan and the "protesters" over police violence? ...

None of this is actually known to be true, it's just the current best guess line of supposition. There are extremely few studies that have been done...

Scrubbed due to weather, next attempt is on Saturday at 3:22PM.

They're effective at preventing the wearer from spreading the virus, they're just useless at protecting the wearer. Sure, it's not 100% effective,...

I can't get over how much political capital they're investing in defending this muppet. At the end of April, I feel like the Tories had built up...

Don't worry, they don't do all that much when they cover your mouth and nose, either.

Everyone, please tell your friends: masks don't do shit when they only cover your chin.

In the absence of evidence one way or another it would be irresponsible to state that it was a lynching and that they set out to kill him. He didn't...

I haven't seen any evidence he didn't comply with officers. And pretty much everyone thinks that this shithead cop deserved to be fired and charged...

Lewk trying to juggle this and the BLM thread https://i.imgur.com/PHTBYAg.jpg

Oh my god you fucking moron, RB was responding to a question that required an assessment of something unknowable—what two other people would have...

Except, the basic problem you have here, the fundamental issue with your position, is that that is not in any sense a valid justification. As a...

Why are you such a colossal moron? Only you would take my quote and think your response is relevant. Like a said, your thought patterns are in line...

Remember, the public was never supposed to see this video. People film themselves doing all kinds of illegal shit cause they're idiots who think...

Read the exchange again and figure out what I'm actually saying. Y'all make my head hurt, its like talking to a toddler who takes everything...

On a fiction note I had the same response to everyone freaking out over the puppy killing scene in Elfen Lied. You have hundreds of humans being...

I have literally never seen you express any doubt with a white hand holding the gun.

Today I saw this video on the NYT website and it was surprising how deeply ingrained racism is in the USA. Full disclosure, I have a cocker spaniel...

It's funny how you think that's a sharp comeback even though "maybe" is a dumb answer to RB's question, whereas it was a perfectly reasonable answer...

No, I'm focusing on RB's absurd notion that they went out while filmed and having 911 contacted to go kill a person. You can absolutely make the...
