I swear if I get another Word document with nothing more than a screenshot pasted inside I’m going to run off a cliff. Everyday at work. Microsoft must love this.

Too many families in America, sadly.

He put down his phone, picked up his stepfather’s .45 caliber handgun and pulled the trigger.

A tragic story for sure, but there are questions about the teen’s access to the gun he used to kill himself.

Reading is hard.

Cum again?

You need to charge your phone

Pussy is what he said. Don’t whitewash it.

Good point

My new Hyundai did this, sorta, and it also had to be recalled. Shifting into reverse would immediately display the rear view camera (good) but then about 25% of the time it would flash a dialogue box on top of the display with instructions on how to operate the display (bad). You could select “Dismiss” or “Don’t Show This Again”. Selecting “Don’t show This Again” did nothing (worse). With the dialog present you could not see the rear view camera display and if you are one of many drivers with muscle memory, the car was already rolling backwards when you realize you cannot see (unacceptable).

Elon sucks and I would never buy a Tesla but just adding this as a reference point that software in cars generally sucks.

He’s a great developer but he needs to find a way not to be so reliant on giant tech companies to make his apps viable.

Do you both have the same type of phone?

Indeed. They discovered that:

shit in = shit out.

Nope

I think he had no god dammed idea what he was doing and still doesn’t.

Must blend all humans

Please don’t resort to those words. I am entitled to my opinion in this community without being told to fuck off.

You have a right to comment, but this community has a right to civil discourse.

I’m tired of talking to you because you keep trying to put words in my mouth or creating alternate understandings for which I am clearly stating my opinion. So you can “win” based on my own exhaustion of your rhetoric against mine. I’ve stated my piece and do not desire to argue it further. I hope you have a nice day and despite my desire to end the discussion, I hope you can appreciate my opinion in at least some form. Good night.

Do you think anyone (regardless of race) should have received that level of response in that situation ?

As with any dispute, both parties can always strive for more, but I try to put myself in the cop’s situation. How long is long enough before you have to pull somebody who is clearly not cooperating from their car? Not following a lawful order during a traffic stop is a misdemeanor, which means you may be exiting your vehicle whether you like it or not.

Do you think anyone (regardless of race) would have received that level of response in that situation ?

I am positive racism plays a part in policing. But I didn’t see anything in this that leads me to believe Tyreek’s skin color affected his outcome. I’m a white dude and I easily see this happening to me if I did what he did.

I’m sorry he got pulled from his car and cuffed, but my reaction to the video was that he had this coming.

I’d personally view that as two opposing viewpoints, either you think he had it coming or you’re sorry it happened.

They are not opposing or mutually exclusive viewpoints. I can be sorry for someone for the outcome they have been dealt based on their own actions. I can be sorry for him but also unsurprised.

In these exact same circumstances, you’d expect a white person to be treated in the exact same way ?

Yes, I truly feel this way in these circumstances. Perhaps I’m a naive idiot, but I just didn’t sense that he was treated that unfairly given his actions.

How does this relate to domestic abuse and what did I say to imply that I am one who would do such a thing?
