I'll do most of those, then. Shit, I miss the days when not everything was about the President and Congress.

These comments that are not allowed often help me sort out my thoughts and other kinks, and this story reminds me of just how much of a waste the Ol' Pussy Grabber is. Here's the blog post I wrote about it.

yeah, well...if the esteemed judge was really up on his 'urban dealer' weaponry, he'd know that said dealer would be much more likely to have a slimmer, easier-to-conceal semi auto 9mm, not that big-ass bulky taurus .38

Totally appropriate reply. I do like that name Gretchen though.

You're right about this. Makes one wonder why DA didn't go for a more sustainable charge.

Yeah the planting of evidence was weak.

This. I just explained this to my dad, old generally liberal white dude who got on the "why don't black people improve their culture" horseshit. I said, my white boy middle class husband had exactly TWO bad run ins with the cop over a forty-year life. Those two were enough to poison his well. How corrosive do you think egregious policing and stop and frisk might have been on the black culture?
