Re: Boeing

It gets better. One of the Senate witnesses described scenes of workers in the assembly plant jumping up and down on fuselage parts from other factories, to make them fit properly. It’s called “beat and bash to fit”. You can bet your ass the ONLY way that they did that was under direct orders from ...

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

In case you haven’t been keeping up with current events, Reagan has been dead 20 years. He left office over 30 years ago. So if you have to go back 30 years to find a crime rate higher than Biden’s then the numbers are bad. Crime is up compared to recent trends. Comparing the numbers to the 1980’s ...

I dunno. Ask them. I don’t hang with policy makers at the GOP. I’m sure it is politics. Do I think a referendum would change anything in TN? No. Would it bother me to have a referendum? No. Ask your neighbors. Since EVERY referendum in America, including dark-red Kansas has passed, I’d say I know t...

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

The percentage of peaceful encounters is in the high 90’s so less than 10 percent involved the use of force. Of the encounters that required use of force, the majority of those were justified. In addition, of the encounters that involved force, many of those involved white people. The vast majority...
