welcome back to the cloak room, surly conservatives
Obama was a watershed moment for many of us conservatives. For me I saw the Tea Party and was initially on board. But gradually I saw the shift going from criticizing government bailouts to culture war BS. Throw in some anti-Obama racism (nooses, charactures, etc) and I got off that boat quickly. But I still had the "Obamacare is unconstitutional. He's leading us to socialist ruin" fever. It was a minor case, but it was there. Fast-forward through 8 years of criticizing criticizing bike helmets, spicy mustard requests, and tan suits. I see Obama as a decent man (no sketchy financial past, no women on the side). More important though, the world doesn't implode. Dare I say, did some policies actually work? I think that's what broke many people's brain. Some conservatives like me moved a little (or a lot) more to the middle. Others voted for Trump... twice.

It's taken me some time to realize that many of those conservatives I thought were decent people... aren't... and they never were.

Am I the only one that sees the irony of people posting on their 2nd and 3rd sock accounts complaining about trolls?

Ex Cop and son kill unarmed black man jogging
But the fact still remains that we have corrupt DAs and racist pieces of shit that are fine with lynchings. There are many people that celebrate this verdict, but want to ignore the systemic racism that allows this justice to be undermined. Those people don't admit racism (who actually does?), but take away that video and some posters are talking about Aubrey the same way they talked about Trayvon Martin. We were lucky this time. We haven't been so lucky in the past (Trayvon Martin) and we won't always be so lucky in the future.

How is that going (if you don't mind me asking)?

Ex Cop and son kill unarmed black man jogging
I think you're 100% correct here, but I think the concern is that some people are looking at this case as an example of the system working, while others are looking at the attempted cover-up, the fact that it almost worked, the part that a self-defense claim could have played, and the fact that it could've worked so easily. We were very close to things going very bad. The latter group sees it as need for change, the former will say they need to quit their bitching.

Everyone already knows all of this. Taparep for your effort at an honest discussion, but it's falling on troll ears.

It is always funny when these accounts pop-up out of nowhere and they have overly-specific causes. "Oh yeah, well what about the wolves?"

From what I've heard, Mickey left behind a pretty long trail of random snatch. Maybe he could make a promise to one of those ladies.

The GQP: Trumpist Death Cult
They already say they don't like him. They've been saying it all along. The problem is that it never kept them from voting for him... and they never needed the autobahns as an excuse.

You're trying to argue about appearances with people that are just fine with the way Donald Trump comported himself before, during, and since his presidency. Do yourself a favor... let it go.
