I have been pro-gun-control my whole adult life. Many of my black friends feel like the only answer is for them to arm themselves. And I'm not sure they're wrong.

Who are these people? I do not understand how they lack a filter in their professional lives.Originally posted by BigPiney View Post"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Do your black friends know that you are referring to them as your "black friends"?Originally posted by UtahDan View PostAin't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Privilege is a massively overused concept, but there is some validity to it. This is one of those circumstances where white privilege shows up. I have a hard time believing a black man survives an encounter like that.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostAs I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

I hate our society on so many levels. We have a dead man that shouldn't be dead. The Mayor of Minneapolis acts swiftly, condemns the actions, FBI and BCA called in to investigate, immediately fires the officers, and he has called on the prosecutor to charge the officers. He acted completely appropriately. However, you have people criticizing him saying he isn't doing enough. What in the ever loving hell more can he do?As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression
