I've seen Trump attack both black and white. I hate race baiting. Just because you're black doesn't make you immune from everything negative. You know if the guy who was shot and the chick who got shot almost running over ICE, were black, people would scream they were race motivated. This is just dumb people saying dumb shit.

Funny how people who attack Candace Owens aren't accused of being racist. Nor should they, because she's a straight up loon.

Or Justice Thomas.
 
From Grok:

Are you more likely to be struck by lightning or killed by an ICE agent?

Both events are extraordinarily rare for the average person in the United States, with annual risks near zero for most individuals.

Being struck by lightning: Reliable sources report an average of 20–30 fatalities per year in recent decades, with hundreds more people injured (total struck estimated at 200–400 annually, as ~90% of victims survive).

Being killed by an ICE agent: Historically very low (often single digits annually), but reports indicate a spike during intensified enforcement in 2025–early 2026, with sources documenting around 10–20+ fatalities total across this period (e.g., at least 9 in early 2026 alone, and 2025 described as the deadliest in decades).

In summary: You are vastly more likely to be struck by lightning than killed by an ICE agent, as lightning strikes affect hundreds of people nationwide each year (most surviving), while ICE-involved fatalities—even during this elevated period—remain in the low dozens at most. Both pale in comparison to common risks like vehicle accidents.
 
A term I heard this evening which describes the rioters perfectly:


“Narcissistic immunity” is a concept primarily associated with the psychology of narcissism, popularized by author Sam Vaknin in his writings on Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) and malignant self-love.

It refers to the erroneous belief held by a narcissist that they are impervious or immune to the negative consequences of their actions, decisions, or behaviors. The narcissist feels that rules, laws, social norms, or repercussions that apply to others do not apply to them—they expect to escape punishment, criticism, or fallout, often due to a sense of grandiosity or “specialness.”

Key Elements

This perceived immunity arises from several psychological factors common in narcissism:

• The False Self — Narcissists construct a grandiose, invulnerable persona (the “false self”) to protect a fragile inner true self. This creates a psychological split where the false self feels untouchable, while any potential harm is disowned or projected outward.

• Sense of Entitlement and Magical Thinking — Narcissists often harbor an inflated belief in their own importance, leading to magical thinking: the idea that the universe or society will somehow protect them or that they are above accountability.

• Manipulation and Past Reinforcement — Many narcissists have successfully manipulated others or avoided consequences in the past (e.g., through charm, scapegoating, or social status), which reinforces this delusion.

This mindset can lead to reckless or harmful behavior, as the narcissist underestimates risks and overestimates their invincibility.

Hell, that might actually be more widespread than TDS.
 


Thank god. Just imagine how many more are out there still. So sad.
