I legit had a "friend" try to tell me that it's not a big deal of Target gets destroyed because they'll rebuild it next day.

Like, no? They won't. It closes, they fire all the employees, and people can't make rent. And the people who used to shop at that Target now have nowhere to get their kids' back-to-school supplies.

This pisses me off more than anything else. Try to go to church? "YoU'rE KiLLiNg GrAnDmA, yOu HyPoCRiTe!" Flood the streets and break shit? "StUnNiNg AnD bRaVe."

It's no coincidence that all this started in Minnesota literally days after the governor caved and lifted his "10 people only" ban on places of worship.

I haven't even been able to visit my friend's grave because the cemetary gates are locked. This is utter garbage.

I don't think it's a coincidence that all this happened literally right after the governer of Minnesota caved on his discrimination against churches and lifted the 10 person limit on places of worship. Satan is abroad.

The husband of a woman from my Bible study group is DC National Guard and has been called up to keep the peace. My family is just lucky Hogan hasn't done the same in Maryland.

Everyone knows that all children born in 1988 came out of the womb with Hitler mustaches and swastika armbands. You just need to confront your own implicit bias. (/s, for the libs among us)

God, yes. I've gone through it before, but for some reason this round of "people I previously liked and respected lose their fucking minds" is hitting me hard.

Maybe because they can't seem to get it through their tiny gourds that excusing rioters because "they haven't had their voices heard and this is the only way to change things," just sets precedent for every other group that feels marginalized that the answer is to throw bricks until you get your way.

Does voting Democrat make it impossible to comprehend that someone will eventually use your own tactics against you? Or has our cultural infantilization just rotted their brains to the point where they can't comprehend a world where they're not the virtuous protagonist who always wins in the end, because they're fighting cartoonishly one-dimensional evil.

YES! Bonus, they're great for listening to when the kids are around.

I have a feeling it would stall out somewhere around the test where you put funny shaped blocks through the matching holes.

I was worried, but we bought a new AR-15 and now I sleep easy.

Oh, Jesus. The one in plaid on the far right looks like the lesbian lighting designer from the "Keep It Gay" number in The Producers.

My favorite is the Latin Kings thing in Chicago. How quickly it turns from "as a brown person..." to "fuck those guys."

Yes! When you look at data, the only thing that is a consistent indicator of success in life is whether or not your parents were married and stayed married. The family is the fundamental unit of society. Healthy families build healthy cultures.

Edit to add: if someone made a blackfathersmatter domain with all of the stats on how fatherless homes do worse, I would put up signs all over my city.

I've already gone to the beach. It's a bat-cave virus anyways. Sunlight and salt air kill it almost instantly. This "no beaches, no pools" shit is just anti-science.

Yep. I live just outside DC. I get daily text alerts that Bowser extended the curfew, and all the stores nearby are totally boarded up.

Amen. The number of people I previously thought were sane going full retard on the "DeStRuCtiOn Of PrOpErTy Is An AmErIcAn TrAdiTiOn" train is heartbreaking.
