So now if you are on the side of the Marxists, graffiti is now deemed a "MURAL" and you can be prosecuted for trying to cover it up if it is related to one of their causes like Black Lives Matter.

A white California couple has been charged with a hate crime after they were seen on video defacing a Black Lives Matter mural, according to a statement from the Contra Costa District Attorney's office.

This story is getting some good press in NJ. I often read Jbirds race threads and I am curious what he and others think about this case. It's more the comments on the page that make me shake my head and realize we have the government we deserve. My brother who is a cop called me and couldn't believe the troopers got reprimanded. Me as a lawyer couldn't believe they tried and will probably get away with this without any sanctions.

Thoughts?

I will be interested to see how far the "good faith" defense to a civil rights violation flies.  I expect to hear a judicial thud.

So the creepy-stalker ex-girlfriend who shows up at the new girlfriends' house all pissy and bitchy is accusing someone else of being like a lovesick ex-boyfriend.

That is hilarious, truly grade A hypocrisy right there.

Thanks for the laugh.

I didn't come here to bitch. I came here to see what it was about. For a group of people that decry censorship, I love how quick the people around here shout down people who are just trying to point out a difficult truth.

I plan to stick around to see how things progress since I always enjoyed lurking in the SZ. I just hope that ya'll can make a place for yourself over here instead of making it only about how POA wronged you.

See this is a perfect example of just the kind of imagined butthurt that led to the issues over there.  Nobody is shouting you down.  You come over here, make a stupid assertion that is not really backed up by the facts, get called on it in a humorous and clever way, and then project that to equate to the actual, unadulterated, jack booted censorship that actually occurred over there.  Pointing out you are wrong is not a judgement on you as a person, it is a judgement on the strength, or lack thereof, of your argument.

Please stay if you want, go if you want.  Report back to the Overseers that we are 'obsessed' with them, whatever you want, regardless of whether it is true or not.  I am sure that after a couple quick visits you have read all the political discussions, aviation discussions, and other threads and are making an unbiased, fact-based, non-agenda-driven evaluation....said no one ever.

If you think this place is only about 'how the POA wronged us' you simply could not be further from the truth and have obviously not actually read the majority of posts.

Unlike POA there is nobody here to complain to, no sympathetic masterbators council, no running home to mommy and complaining about how those nasty other kids picked you last for dodgeball.  You will sink or swim here on the merits of your thought process, logic, debating skills and thick luxurious blonde locks - just like the rest of us.

One of the funniest things about heavy handed liberals, is how carefully they pretend that they aren't isolating those that refuse to drink their kool-aid. POA is just the latest of the conversation boards that got taken over by a small, big mouthed, bunch of pansy - professional, offense takers.

Somehow everyone is supposed to care what the dyke on POA thinks about everything and anything, and when you challenge her facts, or conclusions, things get ugly.

Too bad. Some good folks had a cool place to congregate, but the pansies took over and ruined it like everything else they touch.

Well, crap.  I did say I was cursed with a gene that makes me want to see all sides of things.  But I don't have time to be a Biblical scholar.  So I'll just keep on trying to make sense of the world I see, and keep an eye on the other side of it.  As I've said before, I had two experiences that sealed the deal for me when it came to believing we're in a guarded universe.  So I feel obligated to believe, and for lack of a better term, I believe in God.  It also seems right to be an honest, helpful, loving person.  Like so many things, religion can be used for good or bad.  Also, as an English major, I learned pretty quickly that one can defend pretty much any thesis.  If someone wants to prove Jesus is a myth, it can be done.  It just may not be true.
