Running gun violence thread

Can we PLEASE stop it with the same old Obama-Bush shit? Newsflash...some love the guy, some hate him. I can't stand the guy but, damn, do we always have to have the same old pissing contest? Fart, they won the battle, you won the war. He got re-elected (battle) and is in the process of shredding whatever legacy he may have. He is the most unpopular dick of a president in history...his record-low numbers bear this out. Just leave it alone...there is nothing you can say that will make things any worse for him.

 

Followed by a bunch of lame political drivel.

 

Other than the unnecessary and snide remark about "big government", I would agree.

 

I asked what it is the guy actually does. Still waiting.
He's an absentee president.

 

Oh, Butters ... You're pissing all over your shoes again.

 

Listening to a guy on the radio tonight nitpicking about Obama's statement about this. Said he should have said the officer deserves the presumption of innocence.
Nitpick or valid point?

 

Witness who pulled up in car behind the action as it was just starting tells a very compelling story to MSNBC -- Brown was not in the car for the first shot, and he turned and ran after the first one and the cop jumped out of the car and followed him down the road shooting. Brown jerked after being hit, turned around with his hands up, and the cop pumped him full of bullets.

She is a cool customer. Unless the physical evidence proves she is lying, that's the kind of story that could result in a murder charge.

 

Seriously, Ben. This was weak. You complain about the pissing match, then add your own stream in the very same post.

 

Kevin Drum, is that you!

Police briefing now.

Briefing officer gets stuck when he can't remember Michael Brown's name.

Nice.

 

And, the name of the officer has now been released.

As far as I can tell, it is not the same name as what Anonymous released.

 

You mean he's actually supposed to do something? I thought going around Congress and signing executive orders were an impeachable offense?
