Lesson learned: best not to confront racism; if you get murdered it'll be your own fault. Glad that's straightened out.
Right, the parents would have no standing to sue the guys who tried to help. What possible grounds would they have? And why is that the issue here anyway? Uh, sure. One victim's family is going to sue the other victim's family. When has that ever happened? Suing the city, Metro, or whatever - yes, that might very well happen. barfo
Literally the dumbest shit I've ever read. Literally. Not like fake "it literally blew my mind" I'm serious. Literally.
I don't think any of you can resist your Facebook and Twitter circle jerks. It's as if you're afraid to ask if there was a better way to have handled this. Or afraid someone will say you're a dick and a racist because you don't take great joy from a young guy losing his life because he antagonized a racist mental case. I think it was a fucking waste of 2 people's lives if someone can't show there was imminent danger. You are the ones that don't care about the victims. Not me. That isn't even taking into account how horrific this must be for the poor girls. You seem to want them to be happy about it. Just for shits and grins I ask all of you to stop drinking Portland tap water. There is obviously something undetectable in it.
A year before I moved to Vegas I was going up the outdoor escalator by the MGM to cross the street. Some skinhead saw my bald head and said something like "white power my brother" And I said "Fuck you, you piece of shit" GUESS I'M A HERO
You can confront any evil you wish. It is just a good Idea to have a winning plan first. Assigning fault later will be pointless except for the lesson others can glean. I am a little confused as to what you got straightened out?
No one is acting like this is a good outcome. No one is happy these guys died. Well, maybe the perp, I don't know. So these girls are stray dogs? Is that really the analogy you are going for? Please describe what you think the proper procedure is in such a situation. barfo
I apologize if this has been mentioned already; I haven't checked up on the forum this week. But I was reading an article about Portland's mayor (he's a real scumbag), and this comment at the end of the article in regards to the man who stabbed these people caught my attention: "He supported Jill Stein and Bernie Sanders and was an atheist that vehemently hated all religions." And then this quote from his Facebook page: "Sanders/Stein 2017! Let's stop these pipelines and reign in the Prison/Industrial Complexes!!! We the People have the right(As enshrined in our Constitution)to change any government by any means necessary!!! If Not Today Then Tomorrow" - Jeremy Christian on Facebook Food for thought. It certainly dishes away the Left's argument that this was an Alt-Right killing.
He also posted in support of Trump. He's marched in multiple pro alt-right marches. The videos of that are already posted in this thread.
Also Rand Paul is against the "prison/industrial complex". That's not a right or left issue but a concern of many Americans.
Not even sure, reading this new report it sounds pretty brutal. The earlier eyewitness report made it seem like someone pushed the psycho first. I don't know what was said, I do know that the defendant is a psycho. As I've stated. Crazy dude just snapped in a confined space and these guys were trying to stop him? Good on them.
In also don't know why you have to use the stray dogs as analogous to the girls. You're just trying to be an ass by doing that, purposely.
And you can all re read the thread and see where I blamed the police, dude should have already been in custody. That I've already said this is a fact.
So basically, this guy was just plain nuts. It doesn't sound to me like he had any concrete viewpoints or political beliefs at all. Sometimes you just can't fix crazy. I was just pasting something I read in a comment section, that's all. I personally don't have an opinion one way or the other on the issue of prisons. At the moment.
Still want to see the whole thing with audio but it sounds like this nutjob was gonna snap at any moment. They still should have took him in for running around a demonstration with a baseball bat. There has to be something they could have held him on and then done a psych eval on him.
