Ok you gotta give credit where credit is due some Trumpkin came up with this previously with Trump as the statues. Really a reflection that they are more interested in sticking fingers in eyes (triggering) than anything else (it is not unique to them unfortunately).

If this is turns out to be the case then it implies a vaccine will be ineffective (not sure if they have ever developed an effective vaccine for any other corona virus type).

****ty General? You don't know much about the Civil War do you? As for ****ty President a lot of the criticisms were derived from the Lost cause movement (Although yes corruption was present).

Majority-minority? The term your were looking for is plurality.

McDonogh was both opposed to slavery and the largest purchaser of slaves in the anti-bellum South (about 1200). His sole purpose for buying slaves was to acquire a fortune so he could educate them (which was illegal) free them and then repeat. He didn't use the money on himself and when he died he left his fortune to establish schools for poor children of all races. I guess he could have spent all his money on buying and freeing a handful of slaves at the beginning instead off the 1200 he did free over his lifetime. You are quibbling over the tactics he used in opposing slavery. I would call him a good man - his statue should not have been torn down. (I'd say he was the Oskar Schindler of the anti-bellum south).

You learn something new everyday.

You don't see an echo of Schindler in a slave owner that bought slaves to make money, not for his own benefit, but in order to free them and educate them (the latter breaking the law) ?

Different subject but in the same general theme here is another memorial some in this threads reasoning would justify tearing down. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/schindlers-factory-holocaust-memorial-180961059/

I don't think you'd find monuments to those that did as they generally weren't supporters of the postwar "Lost Cause" efforts. (Outside of Gettysburg is there a monument of Longstreet - and I think even that one didn't get put up until the 1980s)? That is red guard thinking. Posted an example above of a statue that shouldn't have been touched, but the thinking (or really lack of) you are espousing here caused it to be torn down and dumped in the river.

A problem with a mob taking action is a lack of thought in what they are targeting (of course lack of thought is a hallmark of a mob). https://www.myneworleans.com/monuments-to-mcdonogh/ ".... He did own slaves – 96 at the time of his death – but the movement to discredit McDonough didn’t acknowledge that he educated them and eventually freed them, Ciravolo writes. This generous benefactor of public education who fought in the Battle of New Orleans and never married was shunned by New Orleans society for his anti-slavery views and other eccentricities. In his book, Ciravolo calls McDonogh a man who “lived to die.” Once he developed the “Plan,” his intended gift to the poor, his primary companions were his enslaved workers. In actuality, they were a hybrid of indentured servants and slaves; even though he purchased them, he developed an elaborate contract that allowed them to earn their freedom. Even though they were mostly construction workers and brick makers, not field hands, Ciravolo admits that McDonogh overworked them, even by contemporary standards. Yet they worked no harder at building his fortune than he did himself, as many as 18-hours a day. His only personal goal was to amass as much wealth as possible so that at his death the proceeds of his toil would build public schools “wherein the poor of both sexes of all Classes and Castes of Color” could attend for free. After his death in 1850, Ciravolo says an estate of about $1.5 million was divided for school use in New Orleans and Baltimore, his birthplace. To save money, he walked instead of taking public transportation. Ciravolo also says that his clothes were “threadbare,” yet he provided for his slaves well. Though his intent was to educate children – black and white – to save them from lives of poverty, he made the mistake of allowing local governments to manage his will, so his legacy didn’t turn out quite as he planned. Ciravolo points out that if McDonogh had created a private foundation instead, his dictates may have been followed, especially the one about educating all children, regardless of race...."

No. All the ones they listed will likely be starting 3 WRs, while Golden-Gandy will be #4 at best and probably #5 or 6.

Mission creep (or a rather large leap in this case)? https://www.scotsman.com/news/crime/robert-bruce-statue-bannockburn-daubed-black-lives-matter-graffiti-2882737

Just curious would you describe RBG, Sotomayer, Breyer and Kagan as the four most dogmatic hardliner liberals? Of all the justices they are the least likely to break from their perceived grouping (Well maybe Alito matches them).

One of the extreme solutions. (I've been places where this solution was de facto in effect - not pretty). https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/12/opinion/sunday/floyd-abolish-defund-police.html

Thanks, I should have posted that link as well - which is what I was referencing.

The spike has occurred at the same time as Arizona's testing jumped. Need to look at the deaths and hospitalization rate.

We're about to pass the 1968 panademic deaths for the U.S. as well.

Not talking about the politicians I'm talking about the base union types and yes many of the old base dixiecrats still exist it's just they didn't have the pull to get their type of guy nominated (at the national level) until joined by the disaffected white (Northern) dems of 2016 (The conservatives and moderates didn't help themselves by getting in each others way as well in 2016). Trump needs to be crushed this November if the non-populists Republicans/Conservatives want to regain their party.

It's the conservative end of the Democrats that entered the GOP that are the Trumpers (It was formally blue states where the GOP improved in 2016 while the previous Reds support declined a bit but stayed red). I don't think there will be a third party. The GOP will go into civil war for a few election cycles before stabilizing. One party rule doesn't work too well - no matter the party and no the Dems won't dissolve themselves.

Oh I think they could prove 2d degree - this could result in a plea deal for 3rd degree. THis is the Minnesota statute of 2d degree murder that I see applying. Unintentional murders. Whoever does either of the following is guilty of unintentional murder in the second degree and may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than 40 years: (1) causes the death of a human being, without intent to effect the death of any person, while committing or attempting to commit a felony offense other than criminal sexual conduct in the first or second degree with force or violence or a drive-by shooting; or

What for calling out someone for wanting people to die? Frankly given your post history I'm surprised you are defending Sinister. (BTW why did that surprise you? I generally call out people in this forum when they call for or wish for the death of their fellow Americans). I'll head back to exile now, but death wishes usually are good at dragging me back.

These guys? 9,249 people are talking about this

He does appear to have run after catch ability. He is similar to Harmon so you will have to put up with 2 big possession receivers.
