The answer is 'no' regardless.

Al Sharpton. Ollkiller, would you take him over Trump?

I know fuck all about Sharpton to be honest. He is dodgy or something. Also what is all this about and why am I being dragged into it.

Kev just tugged on your jumper cos he wants to make a new goalpost.

The thing is is that her being shot isn't the biggest story here. In fact, the miracle of her being the only one shot is a bigger story than her being shot. Reasonably speaking, the US Capitol should have been defended with much stronger response. She's not so much unlucky as everyone else, bar the policeman beaten to death and the others dead of various causes, is lucky.

That's more your musing out loud than the actual story of an unarmed woman  being killed by the police.

You mentioned moving goalposts?

This was my first thought. That Davy Crockett fucker was carrying a spear. There should've been bodies everywhere.

As long as the bodies belong to Trumpers, and preferably white.

The mob she was part of beat a policeman with a fire extinguisher and he died of those injuries. Inside the US Capitol. Damn right they were all lucky.

They certainly wouldn't have gotten away with all the runners and tellys without a hail of bullets, that's for sure.

If it was a BLM protest there would have been. Should she have been shot. On the evidence of the 1 minute video no (also did she not see the men with guns behind the door). But if anyone said to you someone got shot and killed when a mob stormed a government building trying to stop certifying a president you'd be like. Ok. They should have been beat Landowne Rd style out of the gaff.

Has there been any good write up on whether Trump could face any trouble due to the deaths at the Capitol building.

I remember laws about that stuff being rather strange when reading about Charles Manson, and that they never even had to prove he ordered them to carry out the murders.

50 police officers injured. Sure there's video of them kicking and punching police to get past the fences. Kicking and punching police. Kicking and punching police. One person shot. In the USA. About time to put your nonsense to bed. They were all lucky as fuck...to be Trump supporters and not BLM protestors.

T'would be a can of worms that one.

The last line is lifted from or inspired by the Washington Post headline , and it's nonsense, like your 'point'.

Dozens have died and countless beatings, intimidation's, billions of dollars worth of damage, businesses destroyed and endless, vacuous virtue signalling wrecking the whole worlds head. Nike Lives Matter.


Shouldn't you sad arses be drinking beer and having an auld J at this time of a Saturday evening?

I'm on my third Madagascar film in a row with the young lad. Need an excuse to look at the phone.
