The Outrage Thread

That was bbgun. I literally have not read anything that specifically identified as Fentanyl in his system.

Well, that's who he quoted, so...

CBS:

The Hennepin County medical examiner's office, however, said Floyd experienced cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained by the officer. The county autopsy said Floyd had "other significant conditions" including "arteriosclerotic and hypertensive heart disease; fentanyl intoxication; [and] recent methamphetamine use." The office had not previously released the findings pending toxicology reports.

Anybody else find it funny that bbgun shits on one autopsy report, saying it's only "what the family wants to hear." But swears by the governments report like it's gospel. Because, you know, they wouldn't just say anything that would make the police force and Minneapolis government look better. Nah...

Anyone else find it funny that the medical examiner did a 180 on asphyxiation after days of violence and intimidation? Let's throw the cop to the wolves and hope that they eat us last.

So now the big thing is to wear face masks with political messages on it.

I had a group of associates face off today in the breakroom. Some had MAGA facemasks and the others had BLM or Can't Breathe.

It was so awesome to deal with rational people that were just there to do their fucking jobs and go home.

I’m all about standing up for what you believe, but you would think that kind of shit would be frowned upon in the workplace.

Yeah, that's the whole thing. There is a gray area on what is "offensive".

MAGA? Can't single that out. Apparently with a portion of our large rural and uneducated workforce, it has been allowed on T-shirts, hats etc for years. Well before I started there.

Now, there is the new I Can't Breathe and a resurgence of BLM.

All kinds of fun.

Do you seriously think the rural population is retarded and uneducated? If so, you are part of the problem.

He is like a lot of people. Sometimes Facebook is their news since they spend all day on it.

I never go on it other than to wish a happy birthday or something.

Twitter is bad enough, but Facebook is a cesspool.

Twitter is way worse than Facebook.

 

[Cotton]

Twitter is way worse than Facebook.

I don't agree.

 

[boozeman]

I don't agree.

Nope. Facebook is the worst because it goes to circles. It creates smaller pockets.

Twitter gets a little more exposure.

 

[Smitty]

Well my experience is that Twitter is way worse.

 

[NoDak]

Imo, you get the same stupidity on both forums. But you get a much larger sampling of retardation on twitter. It's more sterile, and anonymous. Facebook is worse in the fact that it actually pits friends and family against each other.

 

[yimyammer]

Yeah, another night of wondering what will happen after dark.

no wondering here,

same ol, same ol...eat too much, watch some dumb shit, rub one out and crash

 

[Sheik]

I vote for Facebook being worse.

At least on Twitter, if I understand it correctly, you don’t have to be friends with someone to see their stupidity.

In my experience, when I see someone I know posting something I know is outlandish, I think twice about calling them out for it, I’d rather not try to embarrass someone when they are doing a pretty good job of it all by themselves.

Twitter on the other hand seems way more wide open and you’re probably much more likely to get put in your place if you post something stupid, likely by someone you don’t know.

Unless I don’t understand Twitter. Which is highly likely.

A large portion of our rural workforce is uneducated. That is just a fact.

You added the retarded in there for whatever reason. I guess to make whatever point you thought you were making.

A large portion of our urban population is uneducated. That too is a fact.

Do you deny that? They have their own limited belief system just like uneducated urban people. And when the two converge, it is not exactly intellectual.

And I will follow it up with this and I don't give a shit if it offends you.

If you are a rural person that brandishes MAGA symbolism, why do you do it? Oh, to display your colors.

That is exactly what I dealt with today.

Hillbillies that were mad because someone with a BLM facemask called them out. They had a problem with it because they were challenged.

Ah've been wearin' this for years!

Well, this is a different time.

You can't suddenly get all offended because you don't like it when someone turns the tables on you.

 

[yimyammer]

That's correct, and mainly because the people taking advantage of this situation to commit crime don't give one damn shit about Floyd. They just want to burn shit.

its not just thieves and vandals taking advantage of the Floyd situation

 

[Sheik]

I’ve been watching craigslist for killer deals on Jordan’s and IPhone 11s.

 

[Sheik]

Do they lose their ability to practice law over this shit?

Schmitty? Other guy who’s name escapes me, I think you’re a mod here?

There is swift justice on Twitter.

FB, not so much.
