RADICALIZED LEFTIST posts a picture on instagram painting Mah'Kia Bryant as some kind of angel.
8pm my time (relevant later) I respond: So this one confuses me. She was literally stabbing a person when she got shot.
This morning, Leftist responds: [my name], I really can’t right now. You have your set of beliefs and you are going to want to see this child as someone that deserves to get shot 4 TIMES then I’m not sure we can have this conversation. You clearly are on the side that wants to support every fucking cop that can somehow apprehend white people in a calm matter without KILLING THEM but not understand that this cop showed up and 4 seconds later used his MOST LETHAL form to subdue this child??? Honestly I would rather that the Fucking cop in all their gear got stabbed a little bit then a child get killed. I watched the video and honestly I don’t think there is enough known about what happened for you to make your judgments. The fucking cop wasn’t even there long enough to do that but instead of blinding making judgments on who’s lives are more valuable from the safety of your white male privilege instead of seeing the systemic issues that are literally making us desensitized to mass shootings and serial cop killings
I’ve chosen to spend my last 8 years living in a place that I am the minority, I live in a state with 50th in education, where there are oil camps and indigenous women (and men) go missing, MURDERED, raped, and the police do nothing. We had APD officers MURDERING homeless people so badly they sent in the FBI YEARS ago to try and “reform” the police
The thing about these issues is they have layers and it’s not as easy as “oh she had a knife in her hand”. There are layers and layers on these issues and I have friends and family that are 5-10 times more likely to die than you and I from just LIVING and existing. Normally I might have more time to discuss this or try and level with you but right now and today I don’t have that energy. But that photo you have as a “cowboy” as a white male also represents a culture and identity you don’t even have but like to pretend and play “cowboys and Indians” while actual peoples lives are destroyed over the same manifest destiny and white supremacy that keeps the USA capitalism running.
Me: I mean, if I was being actively stabbed by a person I’d want the cop to shoot them. Also, just for reference, I support the officer in the Daunte Wright incident being arrested and charged/convicted. And I also live in a place where I’m a minority, [my city] is like 80% black and all of my neighbors are black. But I’m not going to virtue signal about it. All I’m saying is that she was actively stabbing another person when she was shot. She didn’t just “have a knife in her hand.” She was swinging it at a human being she had pinned against a car with the intent to stab her. Did you not see that part?
Leftist: I saw ALL THE FUCKING PARTS! We don’t agree on this, GET OVER IT! I didn’t message you, you messaged me. I saw all the videos, I watch everyone of them. I don’t care about your white male privileged opinion on topics you don’t understand and clearly aren’t trying to. Buy all the fucking guns you want to “protect yourself from your dangerous neighborhood”. See I don’t comment on things I don’t agree with on your shit at 8 am in the fucking morning? Why don’t you go talk to your black neighbors about her death and see what they think.
she's in New Mexico, I'm on the East Coast
Me: I sent that message at 8pm EST. My apologies for trying to open a dialogue. Won’t make that mistake with you again.
Leftist: You know some days I have all the energy in the world to tell you why and how your beliefs are rooted in a systemic racism system that I guess are aren’t aware of, or more realistically don’t want to acknowledge, because then the system you benefit from could come crashing down and your conscious might make you have to change some of you precious opinions.
I don’t have the energy today for this. You want to understand more about where you are positioned in comparison to that sweet baby angel that was murdered? Read about the caste system in the US
Me: Let me just ask you this and then we can both be done with this conversation. Had Mah’Kia succeeded in stabbing the girl in the pink jump suit, would you still be calling her a sweet baby angel?
She hasn't responded.
Need to re-up, looking for suggestions. I've been a cheaper than dirt dot com customer, but perhaps there are better/cheaper options?
Yesterday I went to the local urgent care because I was experiencing flulike symptoms. Of course they tested for COVID, as well as strep and something else. While the doctor was in the room with me, I asked if they'd been seeing a lot of COVID cases recently. She said yes. I said, really? More? She said yes, we're seeing more now. I asked her "how is that possible with all these vaccines going out?" And she said:
"The COVID vaccine isn't keeping people from getting COVID, it's just making it less likely that they die. We'll see what your results say, but I've just been telling people to take Zinc, Vitamin C and Calcium, and maybe take an antibiotic or something if this doesn't clear up in a day or two."
By the way, my results were strep and covid negative.
I've posted a few times about how my 10-person office is reacting to vaccines. I told my boss I wouldn't get one, that I would leave the company if mandated.
Today, 2 of my coworkers got vaccinated in the morning with one more going this afternoon. They're posting on instagram, they're all excited on our morning conference call about getting vaccinated, they're trying to push it on our social media accounts. I'm so disappointed. I'm sad for them, that they just get sucked into this giant socially engineered web. They've been victims of marketing by the cabal, they're being manipulated and forced into something they just "trust" and don't know anything about. They're blind to the numbers of deaths and illnesses caused by the "vaccines" and then I'm the crazy person who is refusing.
It's like all of a sudden, "everyone else is doing it" is the attitude, when literally less than half a year ago, it was "nobody should do it because Orange Man bad." Everybody seems to have amnesia or something. It's driving me fucking crazy and all I can do is sit back and be silent and allow them to hopefully realize they've been played.
It's so infuriating I can't help but feel disengaged and just pity them at this point. Bless their sweet, dumb hearts.
Straight to his face.
We actually have a really great relationship. The rest of the office is totally brainwashed about vaccines and other leftist bullshit, so I'm the only one who is openly refusing to get vaccinated. He came to my desk to tell me about how Walgreens is offering vaccines to basically anyone and I said "that's great news for people who want the vaccine." He asked me would I really not get it? "Nope." Why? "Because I don't like it, I don't think it's necessary, it's an experimental injection and not even technically a vaccine, I believe in my immune system and I don't like how it's been socially engineered and forced upon the public. I don't like it."
He was silent.
I continued with "and so if you decide vaccines are mandatory, I'll be working from home." He said, "well, if vaccination was mandatory and you refused, you'd have to find another job." I said, "yep."
"You'd find another job?"
"Yes, I would." I was on my way to deliver something to one of my interns on the other side of the office, so that's where the conversation ended.
One of my coworkers turned to me and asked - assuming correctly what my answer would be - if I’d be getting the vaccine. I said no, I do not plan on it. Leave it for the old people and healthcare workers. I believe in my immune system.
And that’s that. Very simple folks.
Just something interesting in my work life.
--- I'm not in charge of where we source our products and if I was we wouldn't source from China at all ---
My company sources from China, and we have a shipping container on a cargo ship traveling across the Pacific into California right now. Just yesterday or the day before, we received notice that the ship carrying our products "suffered a blackout" and is now floating in the middle of the Pacific ocean.
I wonder if this is related at all to the Ever Given, since they happened within 24 hours of each other, and both came from China.
Hi, I have a question. I got into a long discussion with my law-student brother who, while very conservative and a Trump voter, is certainly no anon and very by the books. He said to me about Pence’s decision on the 6th that it was his constitutional duty to certify the votes, even though they may have been fraudulent, because the states had given him their already certified votes. In other words, the states came to pence and said, “we elected this guy, we’ve already certified it.” This left Pence, even if he knew the votes were fraudulent, no choice but to push them through because the constitution dictates it so. The VP “shall” certify the votes, notwithstanding the validity of them, since they’ve gotten to that point. Hopefully this makes sense.
What are your thoughts on this?

The DECLASSIFICATION of all requested documents (+ more) will occur.
This is not a game.
Do not let personal (emotional) desires ("do it now""now""what is taking so long""NOW!") take over.
Logical thinking and strategy should always be applied.
Game-Theory.
WE ALL WANT TO SEE EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER THE LAW.
NEW THREATS (investigations by [SDNY], [AS], [MW] in an effort to delay/prevent release ('insurance extension') WILL FAIL.
TRANSPARENCY is the only way forward.
Define the following:
Treason.
Sedition.
Subversion.
Conspiracy to commit…
Do you understand and fully appreciate the GRAVITY of the situation?
Do you understand and fully appreciate what POTUS endures each and every singly day?
He loves this County.
He loves you.
WE MUST STAND TOGETHER IN THIS FIGHT.
There is EVIL in this world.
There is DARKNESS in this world.
There are those in POWER who wish to CONTROL (enslave) you.
To keep you sedated.
To keep you unaware.
To keep you blind.
This will be on our timetable.
(….AND WE WILL DELIVER).
(Transparency and Prosecution)
There is simply no other way.

Q
...so that Biden and Kamala would enter expecting to have the criminal infrastructure they left, but instead were walking into their own death trap?
Think about this... The bad guys committed a gigantic treasonous act in front of the entire world. They only have one option now: sit in their dirty diapers and drown in the consequences. They're trapped. They've very publicly "won" their little election, and now they're embarrassing themselves while literally everyone else on the earth learns that they've committed legitimate treason.
It's glorious, if true. What do you think?
EDIT: Adding a separate thought. The only way this plan works is if the Military tries the cases and the Supreme Court does not. Obviously the Supreme Court is a part of the problem.
Representative Lisa Blunt Rochester
It has come to my attention that HR 127 has been gaining traction in the House, and as a law-abiding, tax-paying citizen of the State of Delaware, First State of the Union, I would like to voice my issues and concerns with the resolution and ask you to please vote AGAINST this bill.
Firstly, my understanding is that HR 127 will require gun owners to report all owned guns with Make, Model and Serial Number to the government, as well as where they are kept in their homes. All of this information will then be put into a database that is searchable by the general public. Of course, there are major personal safety concerns that arise from such information being made public. For example, the city of Wilmington where I live - which you've represented for years, by the way - has a Crime Index of 1 out of 100 (100 being the best), and 3,690 property crimes a year. Wilmington is a city in which my likelihood of being the victim of a property crime is 1 out of 19 (https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/de/wilmington/crime), which is horrifying in and of itself. Add to it the fact that now, any individual who was staking out my house for a break in would know exactly which types and what kinds of guns I may or may not have in my house, by simply searching it online. If I were a gun owner, this legislation would make protecting myself, my family and my property extremely difficult. It would also be a complete violation of my right to privacy as a United States Citizen. I hope for this reason alone, you will not support HR 127.
Secondly, this bill would require a citizen to apply for a license to have any gun. To acquire this license, one must be 21 years old, pass a background check, pass a psych evaluation, pay for 24 hours of training, AND purchase an "insurance policy" form the government at around $800 per year. The last two elements of the licensure being extremely expensive for the average citizen of Wilmington - again, your city - notwithstanding, limiting gun ownership to citizens over 21 years old is a direct and obvious infringement on the rights of all individuals between 18 and 20 years of age. As you very well know, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. As an infringement is a limitation according to the Oxford Dictionary, limiting the ownership of guns to citizens of a certain age would qualify as an infringement.
Now I do agree that a criminal background check and even psych evaluation are considerably reasonable, and I would say they are fair. Age restrictions and mandatory (but more importantly arbitrary) financial obligations are not fair, however, and for this reason, HR 127 should be shot down. Pun intended.
Third, if an individual was evaluated to be mentally unfit, has ever in their life been diagnosed with depression, has ever had any brain disease of any kind, was determined to have an "alcohol problem" by the examiners, or if an ex-lover or scorned family member spoke against the individual to the evaluators, that individual would be denied the license. But my question is what are the parameters of integrity that bind the evaluators? How stringent and accurate is the testing? Is there any legitimate testing at all? What if a person was diagnosed with depression at a very young age and has not experienced depression since? What if a person was incorrectly diagnosed with depression in the past? What if a person was born with a brain disease that was cured? What if the person's brain disease was completely physical and had no effect on their mental, emotional or psychological health? What if the examiners had any bias towards the person, or their race, or their gender, or some combination of other factors? What if an examiner called an ex-lover with very strong hatred for an individual who made up lies about them? Would the examiner fact check, or just take their word? There are clearly too many open ends in this bill that cannot be addressed, and for that reason you must vote against it.
Fourth, this bill dictates that for "Military Style" weapons, individuals would need a separate permit for ownership. Also, that magazines would be limited to only 10 rounds. As we've already agreed, permits, licensure and limitations are infringements on the right to keep and bear arms, but a separate permit for separate types of weapons, and a limit on the number of rounds that can be owned are extreme infringements and derelictions of Constitutional Integrity. I know you have integrity and great regard for the Bill of Rights, and for these reason, you must vote against HR 127 to maintain your integrity.
I could say more, but I believe this message is long enough and in that light, I'll conclude with this. I expect that a person who has such high regard for the US Constitution and the rights that you've sworn to protect as a Representative of the citizens of Delaware, would already be planning to vote against HR 127. It wouldn't even be a question, or up for debate, if you or any Representative was following the Constitution. But for some reason, and it may be the wave of party-line politics that has been eroding our great institutions for years, I felt that it is my duty as a law-abiding, tax-paying, regularly voting citizen and patriot of this great country to remind you that we do indeed have a Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, and that Congress may make NO LAWS that infringe upon it. HR 127 does infringe on this right in more ways than one, and for this reason, I implore you to vote against HR 127.
Thank you.

They were surprised when I said I had no plans to get the vaccine. They asked, "what if it were mandatory?" And I said, "then we'd have to have a serious conversation about that." The subject was changed quickly to something more light-hearted. But it seems like they're at least considering mandating a vaccine in order to work at this office. And if they do decide that, they'll be looking for a new manager for their shipping department.
We need this now more than ever.

THANK GOD THIS PLACE EXISTS! I've been spending a lot of time on QRV which has its moments, but overall Voat has some unsavory characters and posts there that make the movement look bad. This, though, I like this.
