BLM.
Black.
Lives.
Matter.

Reverse racist .

All lives matter.

IMO.

If you are not smart enough to understand the implication of the cause is Black lives Matter Too rather than Only then there is no point in continuing the discussion. Each to their own.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Got a useless alert on Twitter.

Your post seen bye 202 .

Useless.

 

[foodles05]

Oh no. This one. You can go fact check it.

expand...What does it stand for? I know what the letters stand for but what are they actually doing?
Not being a smart arse. I just don't know.
If I look since it's started in America, more black people are going to jail than ever, more crime in black neighborhoods, higher wealth inequality and you look at churches and they're actually segregating due to black people having a low vax rate.
Seems like they would of been better off voting Trump.
What positives are coming through from this?

hahaha they aren't facts they are stats you have asserted with nothing to back them up. It's really important to understand that things you have read and then assert are not automatically true. The other point isd you don't seem to understand how debates or discussions work. If you assert something it is on you to prove it not me to disprove something that hasn't been proven yet.

That is true actually- having a flash car you're more likely to be a victim of a home invasion I guess.

No one is gonna invade my house anytime soon for my 2017 Ford Fiesta

Twitter is a good medium, sourse for info etc.

Plenty of trolls tho.

 

[Shell]

Yeah I dont need to know information tbh.

Couldnt care less.

 

[Shell]

They are facts. I was the one trying to have a discussion and also trying to share ideas and thoughts on a way to help a cause you supposedly support.
You know? A discussion.
Not Hahahahaha. They're not facts. Blah,blah blah.
That's not a discussion. And Yes they are facts.
It's almost like you don't support the cause at all. You just enjoy the symbolism and the false virtue that it can give you.

Have you ever been to Court Spazz?

 

[Shell]

30 on Tuesday!!

Man the VRC would be spewing they cant have more ppl. Would have made a killing with that weather..

 

[Spazz Cat]

Have you ever been to Court Spazz?

I may of. Yes.

 

[Shell]

I may of. Yes.

What for?

 

[Spazz Cat]

What for?

F**k all. And not for many years. Driving offences, public nuisance or something and public vandalism.
2 of those I was under 18.
I do not have a criminal record.
Also had to go once when I witnessed a motor bike accident.

 

[Shell]

My brother was a witness in a pretty high profile case.

 

[foodles05]

I may of. Yes.

Do you think if you said out loud to the Judge what you wrote to me he/she would consider that evidence of those comments being factual. Or would you perhaps have to provide corroborating evidence for it to be taken in any way seriously. Now that's a rhetorical question because I am a lawyer by profession. The answer is no ****ing way ever. Or I could ask you have you ever written a university essay? You know the ones where you have to reference everything you say with credible evidence. The reason for that is because the things you say can never be considered facts just because you say them. However in this discussion you seem to think that's exactly what your comments are.

I didn't even get called as a witness but had to go just in case.

 

[Shell]

That sounds annoying.

Sounds like jury duty. (touch wood, never been requested for that)

 

[Hamingja]

The SA captain didn't withdraw from the match - Temba Bavuma is the South African captain and he played last night

Quinton de Kock still central to South African cricket's plans - Graeme Smith

De Kock remains on leave as Dean Elgar, Temba Bavuma appointed to leadership roles

www.espncricinfo.com

It might be the real underlying issue, the captaincy, doesn't sound like him losing the gig was overly mutual from that

 

[foodles05]

Wow witness' you know the people you need to make the statements people make actually have some credibility whatsoever

They are facts. As if I could be arsed providing footnotes on a BigFooty post.
But anyway:
There are 14 charts here to show the Black/White wealth inequality is as high as 1968. Is 14 good enough????
