    That's an editorial quote from the ultra-liberal LA Times. So, no, it's not about the "period" as stated above, as it is purely political and cannot be justified academically. The significance is self evident and would have been taught in the appropriate academic context. If history has shown is...

    Really? I think the numbers of unjustified killings should be able to be counted on one hand, with fingers left over.

    Question for van owners who use generators.

    A really big chain laying there next to 2 large dog dishes can be a deterrent, as well.

    Yes, the police will arrest blacks in a heartbeat in the same situations where they'll give a white man the benefit of the doubt and let him slide. And blacks will get convicted more often, and receive longer sentences.

    ... With respect to "justifiable homicides" yes. The number unjustified homicides is much higher

    And then

    I'm guessing it's because this country doesn't have much of a history of white people being strung up by the neck solely because they're white.

    No, we probably won't, considering the 96 is 24% of the 400 and blacks only comprise 14% of the population.

    Actually, that 400 figure is the number of killings that have been classified, by the police, as "justifiable homicides" rather than the number killed. If Brown's homicide is found to be unjustifiable, it won’t show up in these statistics. There’s no governmental effort at all to record the...

    The majority of crimes in Ferguson, just like any other community, are committed by the majority racial demographic of the population. People don't commit crimes, or not commit them, because they are of a particular race. People are people and they all commit crimes for the same reasons.

    Question for van owners who use generators.

    I know. Every time I hear of, or see a fire ant, I think of you. And I smile.

    Question for van owners who use generators.

    Naaa. You've got a much better chance of having an uninvited army of fire ants in your van than you do of someone stealing the generator.

    Ludicrous or not, it would have to be shown that it was relevant before it could be introduced. The officer would have to testify that he heard the report over the radio and made a connection. Otherwise, legally, it's prejudicial and wouldn't be allowed at a trial, and if it were allowed, the...

    Body work all done. Above is from where someone hit me at the J in Corfu. I have no idea who did it. I waked out of the store and saw it. Below is from all the rock chips that have pummeled the poor thing over the years. Dropped it off at the body shop Monday morning, picked it up...

    All I'm doing is speculating, mainly speculating the other side of the assumptions, just for the hell of it, and to see who gets the most bent out of shape. No, there's no proof the cop bullied anyone, but there's also no proof that he didn't. A lot of people have been interviewed who have said...

    Cop confronts and bullies a guy, cop get way more than he bargained for. Cop is forced to shoot guy, six times. That's newsworthy.

    With a couple of minor differences (additions, really), I agree wholeheartedly with that theory.
