The Atlas Asylum of absurd/ignorant posts IX

By the way, for information's sake.
Minnesota has a 5% Black CVAP population and the jury was picked from all around Minnesota.
The jury of 12 has 4 black jurors and a few mixed race.
The odds of there being 4 or more black jurors is 0.2% assuming pure random selection from Minnesota citizens of voting age.

This is not how voir dire works.

he admitted he had thought it was statewide, not countywide.

From a frequent contributor to this thread, comes some truly prime material.

This could probably have been solved in a different manner, by some warning shots from the police officer instead of outright killing her.

By the time it would take to shoot a warning shot the girl in the pink would already be stabbed.

That’s absurd.

People don’t always die because of a stab wound, certainly not from a 16-year old girl half-heartedly trying to stab another girl.

In the best case, both of them would be alive now, just with the difference that the other girl might have needed a few stitches ...

Morrissey=talentless, whiny, emo freak who couldn't write a decent melody to save his life. "Please don't drop me home, cause it's not my home it's their home and I'm welcome no more..." wah wah wah, STFU.

Zero homeless people in Soviet Russia while people were dying on the streets of Reagan's America and Thatcher's Britain. Speaks for itself, doesn't it?

Sorry Yang fanboy, that’s standard political forum stuff. If you can’t handle it then you don’t have to be here. But I think you can, since you do it yourself:

Her campaign was so cringe that she deserves to never be heard from again

Gillibrand’s campaign was much more of a joke than Yang’s campaign ever was. Saying that Yang needs to be treated MORE like a joke when MSM already goes around saying he’s an anti-Asian bigot who also supports hitting women is completely ridiculous and just makes you look like an establishment shill

Lol this comment itself deserves to be uploaded to this thread, if it wasn’t already here. Let me get this straight, Andrew Yang is a joke of a candidate because he had the audacity to create a slogan that served as a mockery of Trump’s infamous “MAGA”, while also managing to have the acronym of his slogan actually spell out a word? Wouldn’t this suggest that he’s actually a more serious candidate since he put enough thought into his slogan to have its acronym spell out a coherent word while also taking a shot at Trump? MATH is an objectively superior slogan than any other Democrat slogan in the primaries. The rest were so lame and forgettable that I can’t even remember any of them, not even Biden’s.

How are slogans a measure of seriousness?

They aren’t, but he’s the one who opened up that discussion, so I’m just saying if we’re gonna judge how much a of joke candidates are based on their slogan, than Yang would be the most serious candidate out there

What did I just read? A parody of MAGA is in no way a serious slogan. Are you really trying to argue that having a satirical, mocking slogan makes him a more serious candidate? Just wow

I don’t even know what MATH stands for, the only reason people paid it any attention is because he was clearly playing off of Asian stereotypes, which I f***ing hate

I agree with this because Yang wasn't a sitting United States Senator, and the fact that he came from being a nobody to likely being the next mayor of NYC is impressive, considering that he could have been some random candidate who got 25 votes.

No, but the fact that he got way more votes than Gillibrand makes him a more serious candidate than her

So making a witty slogan makes you an unserious candidate? This makes no sense dude. So every candidate has to make some lame, cheesy, forgettable slogan like “stronger together” or whatever in order to be serious?

I'm not sure where people get this false idea that Biden is entitled to receiving Communion.

I'm not sure where people get this false idea that a global religion with its own sovereign state is entitled to dictate what American politicians should or should not do.

Read the first clause in the First Amendment of this country's Constitution.

Hopefully Republicans will CRUSH Democrats and put them out of Business for good!

Do you profit from the destruction of America? No seriously, I know a lot of people do so maybe your stance makes sense.

America doesn't need Socialists running the Government!

So why do you want them in office then?

President Biden revealed his "True Intentions" this week by saying I only care about big Cities, big Government, etc.

Yeah, thats a whopper and a half. Communist Russia had a well documented, albeit of course officially denied, homeless problem.

He's referring to Morrissey as "emo". Morrissey started with The Smiths in 1982. Emo did not exist until after 1985's Revolution Summer. Furthermore Revolution Summer was a movement in Washington DC and later spread up and down the East Coast initially but did not reach the UK until the 90s, there was no such thing as "emo" in the UK until about 1992ish, which was quite a bit after the Smiths had broken up and Morrisey's solo stuff had zero influence from it.

It's a really dumb and ignorant post.

He isn't referring to the genre of music. Hard to imagine, I know.

Then what is he referring to?

"Emo" was not even a word in 1982. If you said it people would probably assume you were referring to the comedian Emo Phillips.
