  1. For a bunch of LARP'ing kids? Nah. The mayor and governor don't care, so I'm going to follow their lead. You can't help but laugh at the situation. They found land that they wanted, so they just took it. They have defined borders, border walls, and armed agents who question people seeking entry. They are denying entry to those they deem undesirable. Basically, they're just about everything they'd claim to despise.
  2. I think I read somewhere that if a guy is being a Karen, then he's being a "Kevin." Not sure if that's official or not.
  3. I think we can all admit that your schtick is well past its sell-by date.
  4. Why would you want to turn them off? They're the very best alerts, the best quality. No other alerts can touch them for luxury.
  5. I didn't take it as such. Politics is the only sport going right now, and I have no political beliefs as it pertains to Texas Football. Those kids can protest and say whatever the hell they want. Godspeed to them all.
  6. Yes. Cops murder because they believe they can act with impunity. Klobuchar, along with her predecessors and successors, reinforced that belief by looking the other way. Irrelevant, unless you're saying she looked the other way to protect her political career.
  7. Clue me in. Who's the big asshole in Montana?
  8. Well as you said, it's a culture. I cited Amy Klobuchar because she declined to bring charges in more than two dozen police shootings and other civilian fatalities during her time as prosecutor. That contributed to the MPD's culture far more than Trump having Kroll speak at a campaign rally. Trying and failing I guess. Who was standing in their way? Because I'd put my money on local government interests. Both sides? What other side is there in Minneapolis governance?
  9. Merely existing? They hired him, they promoted him, they looked the other way after every shady action. Over and over again. Do you think they didn't see him, or do you think their inaction was a tacit endorsement of his methods? You get real. You rail against Trump but you'd be first in line to cast your vote for Amy Klobuchar, and she's far and away more responsible for the current state of the MPD than Trump. Almost as hard to grasp as the idea that the government of the city of Minneapolis is responsible for the Minneapolis Police Department, a distinction I'm sure you'd have no trouble recognizing if Minneapolis had been run by Republicans for the last six decades.
  10. You think this is worse than the series of local prosecutors who looked the other way and enabled him over the last three decades? It's also fair to say that his continued employment and promotion through the ranks of the MPD happened under the watchful eye of the Minneapolis city government.
  11. And I find it equally hilarious how people like you straight up ignore the fact that this guy was enabled by the Minneapolis city government. How many democratic State Attorneys General and democratic city/county prosecutors looked the other way over the last thirty years and enabled his behavior? Who's been attempting the reformation? Why have they been unsuccessful? If the political affiliation of the PotUS is a factor, why wasn't the cleanup completed successfully during the eight years that President Obama held the White House? He was surely protected by his union. Still has fuckall to do with who sits in the White House. No, promoting him is what the democratic government of the city of Minneapolis did. Over and over again.
  12. Were I a resident of Minneapolis, I'd worry more that my government felt like it was a good idea to employ him and promote him repeatedly over the last thirty years than some jackass propping him up at a few political rallies over the last four years.
  13. Bob Kroll is a piece of shit. What of it? Did Trump hire him? Did Trump continue to employ him? Did Trump promote him through the ranks of the MPD? I'm just a big dummy, so explain to me how responsibility for Bob Kroll falls at Trump's feet, and not the government of the city of Minneapolis
  14. I hope our recruiting teams are savvy enough to bash aggy over the head with this for the next decade or so.
  15. Maybe it's time some of them looked past the person currently in power in Washington and focused a little more on the people perpetually in power in their cities. Minneapolis hasn't had a Republican mayor in nearly six decades. If the Minneapolis police department is still systemically racist, it has very little to do with Donald Trump.
  16. This is where you disappeared up your own ass.
  17. I'm a leaf on the wind.
  18. Hey @StruggleBus, I negated all your negs.
  19. Come on man, cut 'em some slack. Not since the late 60s have we seen so much political upheaval in this country and this time it's happening in the age of social media. We're just gonna have to accept unwelcome political thoughts and opinions invading our happy places for a little while. It'll pass.
  20. There's like five different options on the table that they're going to vote on next Tuesday. If there's any justice in this world then I see us moving up, but you never know.
  21. Please don't talk about soccer. Coventry was FINALLY headed for promotion before the pandemic hit.
