    Is that one of the "can you spot the trans person" photos, erroneously posted here? Because I think I just spotted one.

    Very kind of you to post in billstime’s personal sandbox thread. Sadly, your tongue in cheek comment regarding the attractiveness of transpersons makes YOU, according to his standards, a hate filled FREAK. No good deed goes unpunished!

    What do you want them to say? What would be a balm?

    Say nothing. Enact and enforce laws that don’t allow 21-time arrestees to be on the street. Of course, people like you would bellow something about skin color in a case like this. 

     

    The left is not bashful about demonstrating. Maybe it’s like a balm for them. Just not in this case because the cop knew what he signed on for. Right?

    I ask again, why are republicans so up in arms about this one specific, isolated case? Why are they using his death for their own agenda?

    Why aren’t democrats up in arms about the case of a 21-time arrestee offing a cop? I guess Hochul was. Biden, Clinton, Obama and their devotees not so much.

    He was referring to the fact that it’s been a recognized day since 2010.

    What makes you think this? Are you assuming so or did the White House communications crew have to issue yet another clarification for him? Do you honestly believe the old boy had any hand in the issuing of the proclamation? If so, do you really think he knew what the text of the proclamation was? Other defenders of Biden have declared a young staffer is responsible for the proclamation.

    You want me to tear my clothes and pull my hair and wail in the street?

     

    Why are Repubs using his death, specifically, for their political agenda? Police are killed in the line of duty quite often in America, unfortunately. 

    No. You’ve expressed yourself quite clearly on where you stand relative to a 21-time arrestee murdering a police officer. As you have expressed yourself so clearly I note that you have nothing to say about the career criminal involved. Nice. 
     

    Here’s something you will probably learn once you have a little more life experience - sometimes it’s better to say nothing.

    I’m not shrugging my shoulders. I can be saddened while also recognizing he was doing his duty. Same goes for the Capitol police, they did their duty preventing the cancerous traitor filth from attacking our democracy. 

    Yes, your initial “he knew what he signed up for” post is draped with sadness.
     

    You posted a disgusting comment. Better to own it than try to worm your way around it.

    Do police not have dangerous jobs they sign up for in the line of duty?

    Your takeaway from a murdered law enforcement officer leaving behind a wife and child is to shrug your shoulders and be disgusted by people that are upset over it. Good for you. 
     

    Something tells me you have never expressed a similar sentiment regarding capitol police on duty Jan 6. It’s what being rigidly aligned to a political party does to someone. Effing pathetic.

    The Republican party has become a full-fledged anti-sex movement

     

    "The US supreme court justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas cited the Comstock Act, named after the 19th-century anti-vice campaigner Anthony Comstock, in last week’s case about access to the abortion pill mifepristone. If you don’t know who Anthony Comstock was or what his law did, that might not have alarmed you. But it should have."

     

    "Comstock was reputed to be driven by religious shame over ***** to become his era’s most extreme anti-sex crusader. He rose to prominence in the early 1870s, when he convinced Congress to make it a crime to advertise, sell or mail contraceptives or give out contraceptive information, even orally, or to mail anything “immoral” – a term whose vagueness allowed widespread prosecution, including of a feminist newspaper reporting on sexual abuse whose prominent publishers, Victoria Woodhull and Tennessee Claflin, he got sent to prison. Like modern-day rightwingers he was a book-burner, and he boasted that he had driven 15 people to suicide."

     

    "While the backlash to Roe’s June 2022 overturning has been spectacular, with Democratic election victories and blue-state legislation strengthening reproductive rights, that doesn’t spare women in red states from the horrific consequences of the decision.

     

    At this point we all know they include prosecution for miscarriages suspected of being abortions, let alone for actual abortions, and lack of timely care from medical providers, who, fearful of prosecution themselves, sometimes wait for miscarrying patients to go critical from infection or loss of blood before offering care. "

     

    "..[I]n May 2023, the Heritage Foundation declared on social media, “Conservatives have to lead the way in restoring sex to its true purpose, & ending recreational sex & senseless use of birth control pills.”

     

    "The Project 2025 agenda for a rightwing coup, should Trump win this November, declares that the USAid office of gender equality and women’s empowerment “should remove all ... language on USAid websites, in agency publications and policies, and in all agency contracts and grants that include” terms including “gender and gender equality” and should also remove references to “abortion”, “reproductive health” and “sexual and reproductive rights”"

     

     

    I thought everyone was talking about sex because gay people exist. I guess you were talking out your ear with that one. I can’t keep up.

    He knew the risks of the job. Pretty gross how republicans are politicizing it but then, they love finding new lows to stoop to. Disgusting people. 

    Cop killed - whatever

    People reacting - disgusting!

     

    That’s a fine position you are staking out. Nice work.

    What I'm saying is this: nobody has any evidence in support of the counterfactual, that things would have been better (or at least not any worse) had we just continued with life as usual.

    We made mistakes. Understood. But here we are 4 years later having emerged from a pandemic in pretty damn good shape.

    I’m just trying to follow your thinking. 
     

    You - Partial shutdowns were an “exceptional” step

     

    Me - Why?

     

    You - why not?

    Currently at 1.187 deaths. So ... the estimate was off by a factor of about 5.

    Even if you discount that number by 50% (the old "died with coronavirus rather than because of coronavirus"), that's still over half a million deaths.

    We shouldn't forget how awful this pandemic was, and how, despite an initial comedy of errors, we were able to take prudent (and sometimes exceptional) steps to work our way out of it.

    What would you consider to be exceptional steps?

    In terms of made up celebrations???  Yes, meaningless.   Utterly.  Ohhh I'm sure in your delusional world it's an attack on religion despite him being an actual practicing Catholic.  Lol, old farts getting worked up over nothing.   But, that's your thing eh?

     

    Wow, you’re edgy lol! Not overly clever or witty lol but you’ve got the young guy edginess down lol. Colbert-esque lol. Well done lol!
     

    The president of the United States makes a proclamation for a “made up celebration”, posts it on the social media that has your panties bunched, and you are annoyed at people noticing. But, that’s your thing, eh?
