  1. Harry and I have one thing in common: neither of us will ever be King of England.

  2. I'm white and a military veteran. I was beaten by the police in Kansas City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco on three separate occasions. No, I was not drunk, was not disorderly, did not provoke them. In one case, I was mistaken for someone else; in another case, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time; in the third, I was a witness in a case of excessive force involving one of the cops and he tracked me down to intimidate me into not testifying. Five cops beating Tyre Nichols to death is an extreme example of everyday police misconduct in the US. Our police in most places are roving gangs of armed thugs who enjoy violence and bullying civilians. US police aren't accountable in any meaningful sense to civilian oversight, and the culture is both brutal and deadly. Ironically, these tough guys are the most self-pitying bunch you will ever meet: no one likes them, no one understands what great heroes they are, etc. We're all ungrateful bastards who don't deserve them. That's truly how the cops see themselves. The police cannot fix this with "more training" or "better recruitment". The only three things that have a chance of making this better: 1. Civilian oversight of cops by an elected board; 2. Revoke qualified immunity in most cases; 3. National police licensing board that has the power to issue or revoke a license to be employed as a cop. No license = no job *anywhere*.

  3. True. Virtue is its own punishment and people of principle are not wanted. Both witnessed and experienced this in my own life.

  4. SIR Kier Starmer is incapable of learning any such lesson.

  8. A woman "of color"

  9. How about we make it illegal to eject ANYONE from their home because HOUSING IS A HUMAN RIGHT. Either human life is sacred, or it isn't. No exceptions. Every human being is priceless, not because of what he or she can produce or do or contribute, but just for the mere fact of being born human. Unless we hold and defend this exact value, we are opening the cages where humanity confines its worst monsters. We human beings are capable of terrible things if we're given permission to do them.

  10. If the Ukrainians are so patriotic and nationalistic, why have millions of military aged young men fled to safety in the West? Just asking.

  11. Get a print dictionary now and hang onto it, while words still have meaning. The idea that a biological male can simply "become" a woman by saying "I'm now a woman" undermines the identity of all biological women everywhere. You can't live thirty or forty years as a man and then suddenly "become" a woman. It's not that easy, and it's insulting and deeply misogynistic for trans activists to claim otherwise.

  12.  @christophershields6570  An LA County sheriff's deputy put an LA County firefighter in handcuffs on the highway while the firefighter and his crew were working an accident scene on the I-405 highway. The "crime"? Firetruck blocking a lane of traffic. Cops are bullies and control freaks.

  13. You'll find out when the UK government militarizes your police and hands them all guns. And then it'll be too late. Everything that starts in America eventually bleeds over into the UK, which is our colony in a very real sense.

  15. But she's a brown woman and therefore cannot be a bad person. If she were a white girl who joined a Nazi organization at that age, she'd be held responsible. Everybody knows only white people can be bad.
