    I don’t need a email from Cinnabon or Lululemon that they are anti-racism.

    Eagerly awaiting Spanx to differentiate itself in the market by sending out e-mails proclaiming that it is pro-racism.

    I've got too much to do tonight at the newspaper I work at, so don't have time to go back through the late afternoon posts here.

    Regarding the gentleman in Buffalo who was pushed and suffered a serious head injury. What is most disturbing to me is one police officer's first reaction seemed to be to take a knee and try to help that man. But another officer seemed to, with an arm gesture (I couldn't hear the audio) ... tell the other cop not to help the man.

    That's F'ed up, IMHO.

    Cinnabon is the wokest of mall-based highly caloric baked goods purveyors.

    They like raisins. Some of their best buns have raisins.

    Ok I am in no way defending these cops. But I’ve watched the video several times, and the man who tries to help him is also one of the two who pushed him. And the one who stopped that man And keeps him moving forward does appear to be radioing something, possibly to get help for The old man. Obviously don’t know for sure.
    But that doesn’t explain why only one cop seems to actually care, and why all those subhuman others just kept walking past him without a care.
