Chad Browns Runner PALADIN takes the DERBY standings lead on Saturdays Grade 2 Risen Star 1 1/8 race at Fair Grounds on leaderboard with 60 points .Out of a GUN RUNNER sire and looking strong at this point. Races are heating up now around the country running to get spots in the first Saturday in Mays event. Wagered lightly in waiting(some Political wagers with my right wing compatriots, some cheaper races at cheaper tracks, definitely some One Armed Bandits around the areas ,north ,east ,south and west. There is one runner(Thomas Amoss runner )who absolutely blew the field away in a maiden race at Saratoga BY 17.5 LENGTHS and then has been not training and RAN A POOR RACE IN THE CHAMPAGNE at 2/5, most likely laying off (COMMON FOR 3 YEAR OLD)till spring events and I am searching his whereabouts and what's the whole crew saying about UPCOMING RACING SEASON) IT'S OUR TIME I'm waiting for..
Epstein (yes!) rumors out about being connected to Adnan Khashoggi and BCCI back in the 1980s. Long before the girls, the island and etc were an issue. There were a series of arms deals that helped substantially with the outcome of the Cold War. One was the UK sale of Tornado aircraft to Saudi Arabia, helping (among other things) to cement the "western"-Saudi alliance and ensuring Saudi cooperation in suppressing oil prices that decade, which was critical in draining the foreign reserves of the USSR. Another was the not too secret Israeli (with US and "western" help) effort to pass munitions (SAMs, AAMs, TOW missiles) plus aircraft spare parts to Iran, to keep it viable in its war with Iraq, which was (almost) a Soviet client. This helped substantially towards keeping the Iran-Iraq war a bloody standoff. If Epstein was involved with intelligence agencies this would have been when he was most useful.
Another say almost over and done with where I didn't worry my dog spontaneously exploding. Or my cat. Or my neighbor's dog who has grown used to coning over and begging for a Milk Bone. Our dog was 12 lbs at the vet Friday, neighbor's Husky probably >80. Didn't worry about any of the Amish or Mennonite women I was around today spontaneously exploding. Or the Catholic nuns my wife was around the other day.
Tomorrow we're going to wander through the largest area mall. Where hajab wearing who sometimes spontaneously explode walk around freely. We'll be practicing acute awareness and abundant caution and staying as physically far from them as possible and trying to keep solid objects between them and us. I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to find a prefix or suffix that means rational fear as opposed to phobia which mans irrational fear. A Google search comes up empty.
Someone I know in federal law enforcement was in a car with with 3 other LEOs, between them representing 3 agencies. Were nearby a shooting a responded- and the bad guys ran into them, literally, then opened fire. None of the 4 bad guys in that car that had a bunch of meth and a number of select fire weapons- you know, those illegal ones that law abiding citizens cannot own but bad guys seem to be able to get, will be going to trial. A dozen or so of the people they shot at and were fleeing from were arrested. Were there illegal aliens involved? Of course there were. Will you be reading about it in the MSM? Of course not. It was not a planned encounter, they were in the right place at the right time. Or wrong time, dependent on viewpoint.
Second shooting incident this week for my source. First one he was hit square in the body armor. The shooter who did that also won't be standing trial. Also a multi agency operation. There's a number of people working the tip of the spear taking down the really bad guts- the ones libs and the MSM are being ignored in favor deporting all illegals. I'm in favor of deporting them all, and if the violent ones want to get violent and get taken out, I'm fine with that also.
On Randy Fine and his dog comment, seems the libs are on the wrong side of another 80-20 issue, though it may be really a 70-30 issue... The only people criticizing Congressman Fine seem to be well known demoncRAts and liberals, and of course, muslims. Ordinary people are choosing dogs. And I've seen more then one express sentiments akin to "Damn it, you're making me side with Randy Fine! Stop that!" A number of people bringing up- muslims took down the WTC and other buildings, dogs searched for bodies.
Reading an interesting book Jeremy Bob and Evyatar "Target Tehran" about Israeli attempts to stop Iran from getting a nukes by assassinations, cyberware and secret diplomacy. In a normal world, Iran would've declared war on Israel and bombarded them with missiles. You don't get to kill people in Iran because you don't think they should have nukes.
It seems with Israel, normal rules of international law dont apply. But its fascinating read.
"You don't get to kill people in Iran because you don't think they should have nukes."
You dont "get" to? What international law is that? Its all about what you can get away with, and survival does not require respecting disingenuous quibbles.
"This helped substantially towards keeping the Iran-Iraq war a bloody standoff."

Supposed to be absurd.
Here is an Israeli "Jewish Evangelical" —his claim— Joel Rosenberg debating "peacenik" Glenn Diesen. A "Jewish Evangelical" is telling us that we need to destroy a state run by what he terms "religious fanatics" that has 90 million people.
Mr Rosenberg makes the claim that leaving Syria, Libya, , Lebanon, and "hopefully" Iran, destroyed nations ruled by head chopping warlords is "good for Israel" because these people would never be able to properly build "Jeffersonian Democracies"
He also says that backing Israel is "America First" because so many Israelis have US dual citizenship. Watch the video, I am not making this up.
But we are going to bomb the living crap out of Iran for the good of its people! Just like we did Iraq, Libya, Syria.
Wait until the refugees start showing up. Maybe the EU can repopulate Ukraine!
Nobody is going to destroy the ancient land and people of Persia. Or wants to. Their government and military regime is another matter. You are speaking like the Nazis, who spoke of the allies wanting to exterminate the Germans. But the Germans still exist, I've been there.

Referring to the Mullahs in Iran, Jaq puts "religious fanatics" in quotation marks as if that were not a simple factual description of what they are. Can any sentient human being be so ignorant? And he worries that they might be replaced by "head chopping warlords", apparently unaware that they are the main supporters of the head chopping warlords in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, and half a dozen other countries, and that they are murdering their own citizens by the tens of thousands, though usually with bullets or nooses rather than axes. The people trying to overthrow them are the vast majority of Iranians, and are secular democrats or constitutional monarchists, who want to abolish the Muslim tyranny and bring freedom of religion for all, including Zoroastrians and Bahais. Only a fool or a Putinite could possibly oppose the overthrow of the Mullahs.
During the American Revolution, according to a book I read years ago, the Patriots called their conflicts with the British forces occupying New York City as "cowboys and Indians." The Redcoats, using irregular "Indian" tactics, would sortie into the countryside to seize cattle. The Patriots, being the cowboys, would drive them away from the raiding parties.
I can't remember the book but the recent AOC idiocy led me to look up the etymology of cowboy. It was first used by Jonathan Swift in 1725 to describe those who were usually referred to as cowherds. I wonder if Swift was even aware of the Spanish vaquero.
Our new cat -- perhaps I should say, our most recent cat -- is named Cecil. Having purchased some cheap laser pointers on e-bay, I amused myself by shining them on the floor, and watching him go nuts attempting to capture them. Or so I thought. Cecil has now become accustomed to playing laser-dot tag at nightfall. If, instead of operating a laser, I sit here operating this PC, he comes and sinks his claws into my pants-leg. And even my leg. "It's the time!". It is clear, that he understands that I am somehow responsible for the dot. He even knows to look around when he hears the tiny click of the on-button. But I have to say, his pursuit of the dot is nonetheless altogether sincere. It is a thing he is motivated to pursue. Does he take pleasure in that pursuit? Certainly, when I fail to facilitate that pursuit, he takes steps, effectual steps, to alter my behavior. Does he know that it is impossible to "capture" a laser-dot? He certainly doesn't act like it. I ponder the question; "Why does he pursue the dot?" Well? Why do the greyhounds at the track pursue the "rabbit"? Why do I pursue ... the various things I have pursued, over a lifetime that is winding down. Do we really pursue, because we hope to capture? Yet we persist. What explanation-space might contain the answers to these questions? "Cecil pursues the laser-dot because his perceptual system is triggered by rapidly moving images in his visual field". Yuh-huh. "Cecil pursues the laser-dot because the 3-gamma-hydroxy carbamate receptors in his radial cyngunctus are heavily biased to type-7a polypeptides". I see. That would explain it. "Cecil understands that we are playing a game, and he enjoys playing a game with his fat monkey friend. But like monkeys playing Risk, he sometimes forgets that it is a game". The would mean that Cecil is largely the same sort of thing that I am. Whatever that is.
In mathematics, at least, when you demonstrate that a recently-encountered mystery, is, in fact, mathematically equivalent to an already-recognized mystery, that is regarded as progress.
Newsum and AOC - crash and burn idiots. Embarrassments. chi com pay stubs. The chi coms demand we blow up all our dams. newsum obeys.. he does have a nice new 9 million dollar mansion to show for it.
'"You dont "get" to? What international law is that? Its all about what you can get away with, and survival does not require respecting disingenuous quibbles.'
The Israelis have openly boasted of conducting a complicated "sting" that resulted in dozens of people having their hands blown off by their digital devices. These people seem to have been "targeted" on the basis that their actions led to their having one of these devices in their hand. Hah-hah! Serves them right!
So, if something you were handed by a recent acquaintance blows your hand off - Hah-hah! Serves you right! That's just how our moral obligations to the goyim work. That is, we have none. Anything we do to them is justified, if it furthers our aims.
The pagers in question were ordered and distributed by Hezbollah. The detonation code was sent on a number used by Hezbollah. Which organization was not only offically hostile to Israel but regularly fired off showers of missiles at Israel. Jupiter, you demonstrate the art of the disingenuous quibble.
“ Police identified the gunman who killed two people and critically injured three others at a high school hockey game in Rhode Island on Monday afternoon as Robert Dorgan, a transgender dad who railed against anti-trans hate in family legal disputes and deranged social media rants.”
The 2020 Floyd protests and the recent ones in Minnesota both grapple with the same question: How do you convert outrage over the death of an American citizen by law enforcement into transformational political change?
George Floyd was too flawed to carry the full weight of that challenge. He was a felon – convicted for his role in a $18 drug deal – who had been imprisoned multiple times. He was a tall, dark, and muscular Black man. And he had traces of drugs in his system when he died. For these reasons, some Americans struggled to see his humanity. One prominent conservative called him a “scumbag.”
But Pretti and Good, the two Minneapolis residents killed by federal agents, are more sympathetic figures because of another unpleasant truth about racism: Black lives may matter, but when it comes to eliciting sympathy for a protest movement: White lives matter more.
“What makes Good’s killing unique is that she was a blonde, white woman and a U.S. citizen. It’s Good’s whiteness and her American citizenship that have made her so dangerous to the Trump administration,” Adrian Carrasquillo wrote in The Bulwark, a news media outlet.
Pretti, meanwhile, was a White ICU nurse who worked with veterans and was legally carrying a holstered gun when he was killed.
Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could.
Gadfly, by that logic Trump should have got every white vote, since he's white AF.
The thing about us racist whites is we see nonwhites as representing their groups, but we see whites as individuals.
So we see Good and Pretty and say God, what arrogant bitches. To the extent we make any common cause with their whiteness, we liken them to the asshole whites in our country clubs or Elks lodges that we just can't stand and quickly move away from at parties.
Y'all just can't win with us racist whites! CC, JSM
gadfly states with certainty: “White lives matter more.”
Implying of course that Black Lives Matter less. Not true. If White Lives Matter more, the entire city of Minnie would be burned to the ground, not just several city blocks.
I know I said “I got nothing”, but that was yesterday. Today I heard that awful David Grohl song again "Times Like These". The radio station I listen to has it on permanent rotation. When it hit me. ‘It is times like these that rake over the souls of bloggers.’
That’s it. Thank you for your attention in this most recent matter.
Think back to all the environmental disasters, and how they are covered by the media. Oil spills, oil spills, and more oil spills. Let's demonize the power companies. That's the narrative.
I bring this up because the Democrats running D.C. just had a pipe burst, releasing 200 million gallons of shit into the Potomac.
Crickets in the media while this environmental disaster hits all the water drinkers in D.C.
Trump, a famous water drinker, has finally gotten involved, blaming state Democrat officials. (I think D.C. Water is to blame, so it's actually a federal fuck-up). But the Biden administration appointed the guy, and it's Democrats who run the city.
Anyway, now that Trump is involved, maybe the media will now cover one of the biggest ecological disasters of the 21st century. You alleged green jackasses out to be ashamed of yourselves. "If we can't blame Trump, it didn't happen."
How do you convert outrage over the death of an American citizen by law enforcement into transformational political change?
Step 1: Understand why law enforcement was there?
Answer: To apprehend a convicted criminal and remove them from the community.
Step 2: Understand why the protester was there?
Answer: To obstruct law enforcement from carrying out lawful orders to detain and deport the convicted criminal.
Step 3: Pretend that it is noble to stop law enforcement from enforcing the laws that a majority of Americans supported because they do not find it rational to import murderers and rapists to do those things Americans won’t do.
The 2020 Floyd protests and the recent ones in Minnesota both grapple with the same question: How do you convert outrage over the death of an American citizen by law enforcement into transformational political change?
Step 1: Get money from billionaires to pay unemployed DEI majors.
Step 2: Make sure your target is white men. Always hate the white man.
Step 3. Find a bunch of old white women who have nothing in their lives but their cats and their simps.
Step 4: Make sure the Billionaires send their media minions to make 50 old fat white women look like a much bigger crowd than it is.
It does not become enforceable U.S. domestic law until and unless it is incorporated through a treaty ratified by the Senate and, if necessary, implemented by Congress, or when Congress enacts it into statute. and it is signed by the President. Otherwise, it generally does not have direct domestic legal effect.
Meade Of course he's going to lie. That's what degenerate gamblers do. If he were successful he wouldn't be here. Dinky has a midlevel public sector job that allows him the free time to search the web on the taxpayers dime. He's downgraded his living accommodations more than once in the past ten years so he has more money to throw away. That's my humble opinion.
The lefties are very frustrated that the brothers and and sisters are not down with the struggle for the illegal criminals.
And according to Gadfly and The Bulwark (snort), the blue hairs are straight-out racists. But Pretti and Good, the two Minneapolis residents killed by federal agents, are more sympathetic figures because of another unpleasant truth about racism: Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could... Black lives may matter, but when it comes to eliciting sympathy for a protest movement: White lives matter more.
It looks like Seamus Culligan isn't helping the cause, either.
Lefty Gadfly - your precious party(D) use media pimped (D) manufactured outrage to cause billions in rage-fueled civic and private property damage. All given a green light by Tim Walz(D) - the man with a private assassin at his disposal. Tim Walz(D) - the crook who stood over billions in wasted tax payer dollars for vote fraud and day care center fraud. etc..
After Democrats murdered Charlie Kirk - you skip past that none of that happened on the right.
"Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could."
That's how racists see things. I see three people who did very stupid and dangerous things which cost them their lives, period. Their skin color didn't save them nor cause their death. The rest is just racism doing its thing. It would be a much better world if people would resist that instead of looking for it like addicts looking for crack.
Here are the next two innocent illegals that the Democrats will riot for. They will blame whitey, and say these youths have PTSD from big bad America.

We looked the other way with aq khan and their nuclear program
Why can’t Obama just leave us alone?

What a fucking prick!

If schumers not an alien...
A communist backed (tudeh) govt which had aggrieved the merchants and the mullahs for different reasons
The problem was the shah wasnt brutal enough to its opponents at home and abroad
Thats there own statements and he was the moderate that the reagan administration foolishly dealt with
See the matter up thread
No he was dying of cancer si he was distracted

Well the third has the unsettling quality
Maybe holland should have remained under nazi occupation
Is that too much in your wheelhouse

The allies had the best propaganda/PR
It goes back to WWI too.

And he worries that they might be replaced by "head chopping warlords", apparently unaware that they are the main supporters of the head chopping warlords in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, and half a dozen other countries, and that they are murdering their own citizens by the tens of thousands, though usually with bullets or nooses rather than axes. The people trying to overthrow them are the vast majority of Iranians, and are secular democrats or constitutional monarchists, who want to abolish the Muslim tyranny and bring freedom of religion for all, including Zoroastrians and Bahais. Only a fool or a Putinite could possibly oppose the overthrow of the Mullahs.
During the American Revolution, according to a book I read years ago, the Patriots called their conflicts with the British forces occupying New York City as "cowboys and Indians." The Redcoats, using irregular "Indian" tactics, would sortie into the countryside to seize cattle. The Patriots, being the cowboys, would drive them away from the raiding parties.
I can't remember the book but the recent AOC idiocy led me to look up the etymology of cowboy. It was first used by Jonathan Swift in 1725 to describe those who were usually referred to as cowherds. I wonder if Swift was even aware of the Spanish vaquero.
Another day of as fresh as it gets sashimi. Yum.
3rd pic fav; I must like red.
Our new cat -- perhaps I should say, our most recent cat -- is named Cecil. Having purchased some cheap laser pointers on e-bay, I amused myself by shining them on the floor, and watching him go nuts attempting to capture them. Or so I thought.
Cecil has now become accustomed to playing laser-dot tag at nightfall. If, instead of operating a laser, I sit here operating this PC, he comes and sinks his claws into my pants-leg. And even my leg. "It's the time!".
It is clear, that he understands that I am somehow responsible for the dot. He even knows to look around when he hears the tiny click of the on-button. But I have to say, his pursuit of the dot is nonetheless altogether sincere. It is a thing he is motivated to pursue. Does he take pleasure in that pursuit? Certainly, when I fail to facilitate that pursuit, he takes steps, effectual steps, to alter my behavior. Does he know that it is impossible to "capture" a laser-dot? He certainly doesn't act like it.
I ponder the question; "Why does he pursue the dot?" Well? Why do the greyhounds at the track pursue the "rabbit"? Why do I pursue ... the various things I have pursued, over a lifetime that is winding down. Do we really pursue, because we hope to capture? Yet we persist.
What explanation-space might contain the answers to these questions?
"Cecil pursues the laser-dot because his perceptual system is triggered by rapidly moving images in his visual field". Yuh-huh.
"Cecil pursues the laser-dot because the 3-gamma-hydroxy carbamate receptors in his radial cyngunctus are heavily biased to type-7a polypeptides". I see. That would explain it.
"Cecil understands that we are playing a game, and he enjoys playing a game with his fat monkey friend. But like monkeys playing Risk, he sometimes forgets that it is a game". The would mean that Cecil is largely the same sort of thing that I am. Whatever that is.
First kak was wack… and now jaq?
In mathematics, at least, when you demonstrate that a recently-encountered mystery, is, in fact, mathematically equivalent to an already-recognized mystery, that is regarded as progress.
Rcocean says "You don't get to kill people in Iran because you don't think they should have nukes."
You get to do whatever you can manage to do based on the actual power you have, much as it has always been. International law is purely a fiction.
Newsum and AOC - crash and burn idiots. Embarrassments.
chi com pay stubs.
The chi coms demand we blow up all our dams.
newsum obeys.. he does have a nice new 9 million dollar mansion to show for it.
YouTube: AOC is not ready for Prime Time
Bottom Line: Kamala could better than AOC right now.
'"You dont "get" to? What international law is that?
Its all about what you can get away with, and survival does not require respecting disingenuous quibbles.'
The Israelis have openly boasted of conducting a complicated "sting" that resulted in dozens of people having their hands blown off by their digital devices. These people seem to have been "targeted" on the basis that their actions led to their having one of these devices in their hand. Hah-hah! Serves them right!
So, if something you were handed by a recent acquaintance blows your hand off - Hah-hah! Serves you right! That's just how our moral obligations to the goyim work. That is, we have none. Anything we do to them is justified, if it furthers our aims.
Goy Lives Matter!
"So, if something you were handed by a recent acquaintance blows your hand off -"
Why would a Hezbollah operative hand his pager to a recent acquaintance?
The pagers in question were ordered and distributed by Hezbollah. The detonation code was sent on a number used by Hezbollah.
Which organization was not only offically hostile to Israel but regularly fired off showers of missiles at Israel.
Jupiter, you demonstrate the art of the disingenuous quibble.
First kak was wack… and now jaq?

Another one. Count me as shocked!
The 2020 Floyd protests and the recent ones in Minnesota both grapple with the same question: How do you convert outrage over the death of an American citizen by law enforcement into transformational political change?
George Floyd was too flawed to carry the full weight of that challenge. He was a felon – convicted for his role in a $18 drug deal – who had been imprisoned multiple times. He was a tall, dark, and muscular Black man. And he had traces of drugs in his system when he died. For these reasons, some Americans struggled to see his humanity. One prominent conservative called him a “scumbag.”
But Pretti and Good, the two Minneapolis residents killed by federal agents, are more sympathetic figures because of another unpleasant truth about racism: Black lives may matter, but when it comes to eliciting sympathy for a protest movement: White lives matter more.
“What makes Good’s killing unique is that she was a blonde, white woman and a U.S. citizen. It’s Good’s whiteness and her American citizenship that have made her so dangerous to the Trump administration,” Adrian Carrasquillo wrote in The Bulwark, a news media outlet.
Pretti, meanwhile, was a White ICU nurse who worked with veterans and was legally carrying a holstered gun when he was killed.
Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could.

Gadfly, by that logic Trump should have got every white vote, since he's white AF.
The thing about us racist whites is we see nonwhites as representing their groups, but we see whites as individuals.
So we see Good and Pretty and say God, what arrogant bitches. To the extent we make any common cause with their whiteness, we liken them to the asshole whites in our country clubs or Elks lodges that we just can't stand and quickly move away from at parties.
Y'all just can't win with us racist whites! CC, JSM

gadfly states with certainty: “White lives matter more.”
Implying of course that Black Lives Matter less. Not true. If White Lives Matter more, the entire city of Minnie would be burned to the ground, not just several city blocks.
“5 things I've been finding unbloggable.“
I know I said “I got nothing”, but that was yesterday.
Today I heard that awful David Grohl song again "Times Like These". The radio station I listen to has it on permanent rotation. When it hit me. ‘It is times like these that rake over the souls of bloggers.’
That’s it. Thank you for your attention in this most recent matter.
"White lives matter more."
Gadfly seems to remember all the riots when a Somali cop shot an unarmed white woman in Minneapolis but I sure don't.
You Can't Hate the Media Enough
Think back to all the environmental disasters, and how they are covered by the media. Oil spills, oil spills, and more oil spills. Let's demonize the power companies. That's the narrative.
I bring this up because the Democrats running D.C. just had a pipe burst, releasing 200 million gallons of shit into the Potomac.
Crickets in the media while this environmental disaster hits all the water drinkers in D.C.
Trump, a famous water drinker, has finally gotten involved, blaming state Democrat officials. (I think D.C. Water is to blame, so it's actually a federal fuck-up). But the Biden administration appointed the guy, and it's Democrats who run the city.
Anyway, now that Trump is involved, maybe the media will now cover one of the biggest ecological disasters of the 21st century. You alleged green jackasses out to be ashamed of yourselves. "If we can't blame Trump, it didn't happen."
How do you convert outrage over the death of an American citizen by law enforcement into transformational political change?
Step 1: Understand why law enforcement was there?
Answer: To apprehend a convicted criminal and remove them from the community.
Step 2: Understand why the protester was there?
Answer: To obstruct law enforcement from carrying out lawful orders to detain and deport the convicted criminal.
Step 3: Pretend that it is noble to stop law enforcement from enforcing the laws that a majority of Americans supported because they do not find it rational to import murderers and rapists to do those things Americans won’t do.

Step 1: Get money from billionaires to pay unemployed DEI majors.
Step 2: Make sure your target is white men. Always hate the white man.
Step 3. Find a bunch of old white women who have nothing in their lives but their cats and their simps.
Step 4: Make sure the Billionaires send their media minions to make 50 old fat white women look like a much bigger crowd than it is.
International Law is largely a myth.
It does not become enforceable U.S. domestic law until and unless it is incorporated through a treaty ratified by the Senate and, if necessary, implemented by Congress, or when Congress enacts it into statute. and it is signed by the President. Otherwise, it generally does not have direct domestic legal effect.
Same for Israel.
Gadfly has gone full paste eater. There is no reason there.
And he had traces of drugs in his system when he died.
Traces?
Meade
Of course he's going to lie. That's what degenerate gamblers do. If he were successful he wouldn't be here.
Dinky has a midlevel public sector job that allows him the free time to search the web on the taxpayers dime. He's downgraded his living accommodations more than once in the past ten years so he has more money to throw away. That's my humble opinion.
He was a pretext to destroy as much property as possible when the arberry death didnt do the trick
The lefties are very frustrated that the brothers and and sisters are not down with the struggle for the illegal criminals.
And according to Gadfly and The Bulwark (snort), the blue hairs are straight-out racists. But Pretti and Good, the two Minneapolis residents killed by federal agents, are more sympathetic figures because of another unpleasant truth about racism: Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could...
Black lives may matter, but when it comes to eliciting sympathy for a protest movement: White lives matter more.
It looks like Seamus Culligan isn't helping the cause, either.

Lefty Gadfly - your precious party(D) use media pimped (D) manufactured outrage to cause billions in rage-fueled civic and private property damage.
All given a green light by Tim Walz(D) - the man with a private assassin at his disposal. Tim Walz(D) - the crook who stood over billions in wasted tax payer dollars for vote fraud and day care center fraud. etc..
After Democrats murdered Charlie Kirk - you skip past that none of that happened on the right.
"Many White people have family and friends who look like both victims, and their deaths affect White America in a way that Floyd’s never could."
That's how racists see things. I see three people who did very stupid and dangerous things which cost them their lives, period. Their skin color didn't save them nor cause their death. The rest is just racism doing its thing. It would be a much better world if people would resist that instead of looking for it like addicts looking for crack.
Here are the next two innocent illegals that the Democrats will riot for. They will blame whitey, and say these youths have PTSD from big bad America.

There will be no protests for the victim. You won't find this story in the mainstream news.

Anderson Cooper leaving CBS.

Trump's State Department nominee Jeremy Carl had his Senate hearing derailed by constant questions about his antisemitic and white nationalist writings and remarks. Why didn't senators do this to any of Biden's nominees?

Not true. See Karla Marie Campbell

Good news is they are all offered positions in the Trump administration.
