They didn't arrest the guy that killed Nicole Good

I can imagine all sorts of things. I think the rich will find sooner than later that our imaginations are much less peaceful than in times past.

Or maybe we're all cowards who will happily dig our own mass graves. I suppose time will tell.

Sounds like you're in a good position to go protest in person

You can barely get a motorcycle for $15k

There's no way to elaborate on this statement without admitting that there's at least a two-tiered legal system in place, which is the point being made. Biden had the opportunity to prosecute but did not because there is an unwritten rule that we don't do that to certain people. Saying they didn't have enough time is just taking the long way to the conclusion that nothing was ever going to happen.

Unless maybe you're aware of some law or rule that requires investigations and indictments of specific people to take much longer than normal?

Go commit any crime on camera and see if it takes them 4 years to charge you with it.

Thanks, you're right, the other is a better angle.

Crazy shit happening in this country. God damn masked cowards murdering people in the streets.

That link works but its the same as the 2nd video in the OP above. I was looking for the other perspective which I have not seen yet. It sounds like people are saying this one is a better angle anyway but I wanted to see both.

Either way, thanks for the additional link. I'm sure it will be useful for someone.

They took down the first video

If they do they sure have a funny way of expressing their desire.

You can't solve the problem on your own and that's the point. Instead of just driving past those protesters go join them. Invite others to go with you. Start a new organization of some kind in your community or volunteer with an existing one. Do whatever is in your power to do.

Victory over fascism is not something that can be bought from Amazon. It requires active participation. The action is less important than the participation. Just pick something and do that until you find something better.

I mean, technically it belongs to Denmark, but defending against one imperialist claim with a slightly older imperialist claim doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

 

For the first time in two decades, Oklahoma State is in search of a new football coach.

Oklahoma State fired Mike Gundy, effective immediately, according to Robert Allen.

In his 21st season, Gundy accumulated a 170-90 record with the Cowboys. That’s the most wins in program history, and it isn’t particularly close. Pat Jones, Gundy’s coach, is second on Oklahoma State’s all-time wins list at 62-60.

Eleven of Gundy’s teams spent at least one week in the top 10 of the AP poll, climbing as high as No. 2 in the rankings in 2011. Gundy-led teams have had a pair of top 10 finishes in the AP Poll, finishing third in 2011 and seventh in 2021.

Six of Gundy’s teams finished in the top 10 nationally for scoring offense. The aforementioned 2011 team finished the season averaging 48.7 points a game, which ranked second in the nation. OSU’s 2017 squad finished second nationally in total offense, averaging 568.9 yards a game. Led by quarterback Mason Rudolph, that 2017 team finished first nationally in passing offense, averaging 389.2 pass yards a game.

OSU’s best defense under Gundy came in 2021 when coordinator Jim Knowles’ group allowed just 18.1 points and 297.9 yards a game, which ranked ninth and fifth in the country, respectively.

Gundy teams loved a big win. He had 11 wins against AP top-10 opponents, with the most recent being the Cowboys’ 27-24 win against No. 10 Oklahoma in 2023. Gundy has beaten the No. 3 team in the AP Poll twice, besting Missouri 28-23 in 2008 and Baylor 49-17 in 2013.

From 2006 to 2023, OSU teams finished with a winning record. Eight of those squads had at least 10 wins. There have only been three other teams in OSU’s history finish with double-digit wins, and Gundy was the quarterback for two of those squads.

Speaking of his playing days, Gundy still ranks fourth on OSU’s all-time passing list with 8,473 yards, and the three players ahead of Gundy (Mason Rudolph, Spencer Sanders and Brandon Weeden) were all coached by Gundy. Gundy ranks fifth on OSU’s passing touchdowns list with 57.

 

Can we add the option to exclude communities and/or posts that are in a different language than our chosen default? I'm guessing filtering communities would be easier than individual posts but I'm not sure how language would be flagged. I understand some people may want to see some of these posts but even multilingual people must be bombarded with posts in languages they don't speak. I'm getting pretty annoyed that half of my feed is stuff I can't read.

I've looked through the settings multiple times but I suppose it's still possible this already exists and I just missed it.
