  1. Wait, spending $2 trillion on some industries is evil, but she proposed a bill that would have spent TENS of trillions on HER favorite corporate recipients as long as they're greenwashed? OK, zoomer.

  2. If he goes to jail the riots will be just as bad because it'll never be enough

  3. Easy. When you say 'yes' or 'no' to a yes/no question, your answer is over. Pretty toddler-level stuff that most people learn easily. Never answer a question that is not asked.

  4. Bipoc is a term of anti-white racist terrorism. Stop being that which you hate. You're idiots on both sides and us normal people are laughing at this race war/identarian bs lulz.

  5. THIS is a firefighter, granted the public trust? She can't handle this without getting snippy, imagine how useless she is when lives are on the line. "Hansen, go over there and do this!" "But Chief, I THINK I'd be better off doing something else...."

  6. And that's how Alastair died of covid, in his 90 day contempt of court hold

  7. A Judge, trying to control and keep a courtroom in a legal manner? How shocking! What's next, MLB umpires making calls on baserunning? NFL referees calling play fouls?

  8. He simply told her, like a small child or politician, to answer the question that is asked. LIKE A WOMAN, she felt the need MANY times to answer the question she wanted to be asked. If I ask you "Guy, did you leave the youtube comment I'm replying to?" You'd answer in either the affirmative or negative, right? It's a yes/no question. I didn't ask WHY you left the comment, I didn't ask you to elaborate on your presented thoughts, I didn't even ask if someone impersonated you in leaving this comment in your name. It's pretty easy. Your responses on the stand should be no different than how you'd talk to a cop at a traffic stop: answer what's asked, keep answers factual and short. don't volunteer unasked for info, yes or no to yes no questions, and don't talk yourself into things.

  9. On a yes/no question, your answer is done after you say the 'yes/no' part. It's like getting married, you say your vows, the officiate asks if you take so and so as your bride, you answer yes or no, right? You don't go "I do, but I'd like everyone to know why I'm saying I do, and explain the context..."

  10. How can you get any more clarity than yes or no? The BEST you can do is talk yourself into trouble, as she did MANY times over her whole testimony. She answered yes/no questions with verbose rambles that contradicted her previous testimony, got material established facts in the record wrong, and at one point literally called both sides in the case liars, when she said there was no way the established, video recorded, timestamped event timeline was correct, that there was no way it took that long for EMS then fire to respond. The prosecution had to be facepalming and begging the whole time "Just shut UP! Objection, she's ruining our case!" Contrast that with the later testimony of the fire chief, he was perfect.

  11. YET on a yes/no question she'd natter on and on, sinking the case lol. If THIS is a firefighter, no wonder Minneapolis burned.

  12. This almost reminds me of those terrorist videos where the hostages have to read the statement into the camera at out-of-frame gunpoint.

  13.  @johndoe-ss9bz  "she was trying to be Brave!!!" And that ill-advised attempt cost the case.

  14.  @someidiot420  as a white person, I'd just like the Bipoc people to explain why they think I'm better than them or they are lesser than I, because I can't. I apparently don't know why I'm supposed to think that, can you explain why you think I think it? Go ahead. Lay out your case.

  15. Michele, did you in fact write the youtube comment I'm replying to? That's a yes/no question. No need to 'merely clarify' or add anything, or explain what was going on in the moment that made you leave the comment. Those questions are not being asked and thus are not to be answered.

  16. Incorrect. Irrelevant. Your comment would make sense if you were asking HAD they taken the trash out, they answered YES, BUT and then added a bunch of other stuff you didn't ask. It's a yes or no question. You answer this with a yes, or a no. Don't they teach you kids this as toddlers anymore?

  17. IF IF IF they hinged the case on his death from overdose, and Chauvin's restraint prevented him from getting treatment for overdose, yes. The fact they want to exclude the likely cause of death, the overdose, casts serious doubt on the case for me. Sticking to the narrative of 'cops bad" will walk him right out.

  18. The ADL being experts at extremism is an excellent description. They are a premier terror organization today.

  19.  @sillyvoicedarling1740  "she was asked if others around were distressed" Which is a simple yes or no question. She was not asked WHY or HOW or for any elaboration. Were they distressed? Yes. The next question would have probably been can you tell us why you felt they were distressed, but she ruined that. She's not there to try the case, she's not there to attempt to interpret the line of questioning. She did this several times, in one case she discredited herself by downgrading her experience, another she questioned the entire response time, evidence already irrefutably in the record and provided by the PROSECUTION, and corroborated by radio calls, dispatch recordings, logs, cameras, and even witness video. She's going to let her emotion sink the case all in the name of her idea of justice. OH WELL>

  20. False: He's no less of a patriot. All are equal. This 'more or less' patriotic bs is exactly what HE SAID was the problem. This man was calling out idiots LIKE YOU for YOUR discrimination.

  21. "why would you demand food for a price, that you would never work as a picker to supply..?! " Of course, if the grower and seller can't get the price they need to make a profit, they'd just stop selling and feed themselves and no one else. The everyone else just starves. Maybe they should learn themselves the skills they're paying others for, like how to grow their own food.

  22. This case could be won EASILY if you make one change: The knee on the neck was immaterial, Floyd died because he was overdosing and by not getting him care for the overdose in a timely manner, Officer Chuavin negligently contributed to his death. I would vote guilty on that. The current case, from the evidence, too much doubt, I'd acquit. BUT YOU JUST CAN'T LET THE NARRATIVE GO. You'd rather let this cop walk, than admit Floyd was a victim of his own addiction, and let it get him in a situation that it did. AND REMEBER, best case scenario he'd be in prison right now for felony use of counterfeit currency. We'll have to wait and see. None of us have any say or control in the matter.

  23. With witnesses THIS bad, I'd acquit. At this point, not having reasonable doubt would be unreasonable.

  24. Even if she's incapable of answering simple yes/no questions...
