    Wow they really didn't show much, did they? I am excited, this is probably the overall highest quality SW content since the original films. They would have really benefited by using members of the writing team on the sequels, oh well. 

    I hope they don't try and make it too big and epic, and that there are still a good amount of standalone episodes, I like the light and kind of cheesy vibe of those. Makes me feel like Star Trek TNG or Xena or something and I think that benefits the show

    This was just a teaser.  Look for a full trailer on MNF next month.  Disney loves to cross promote.

    Maybe I fuckin' live in a different world to everybody else but when did this suddenly start happening that white lads could call black lads Uncle Toms and not get their fuckin' heads kicked in?

    I don't know but maybe you can ask @dazey.  Last time I posted a video of the conservative twins (whom I adore) Dazey asked what the plural of Uncle Tom was.  It's a shame that when blacks don't conform to the lefts' views they're put down like they are but I welcome them on the right with open arms, peace and love.

    Im so bored of the rights wings whataboutisms. Get a fucking argument or shut up. You mentioned two separate issues.

    And its not only Native Americans, all thinking people dont want genocide, colonization on the ongoing inequality made light of. I also note that some like to reduce everything to merely "offended." Its dismissive of the moral obligation we all share. Interesting how the right claims the moral high ground yet when faced with moral issues of our times, they just as often reduce it to a special interest group being "offended" and contribute nothing to the issue. Smh.

    Everything ok?  You're usually not this triggered bro.

  4. So the NFL is allowing 16,000 fans to attend tonight's season opener in Kansas City.  Native American head garb is however banned now.  This could also fit into the cancel culture thread but I find it interesting that the NFL is more concerned with offending Native Americans than Corona virus by bringing 16,000 people together when other sports have cardboard cutouts in their seats.

    He didn't hold a knife at the moment he was shot and had his back turned to them.

    But even if he was facing them holding a knife, it was a knife, not a firearm, and the cops should be trained to try and disarm someone with a knife before shooting him.

    You know knives can kill people right?  At what point does the cop start shooting in your opinion?  This thug should have followed the cop's orders and this never would have happened.   And don't forget how it all started.  A woman called the police because she was scared.

    Well you’d at least narrow things down, wouldn’t you?  I mean you can’t legislate for the out of nowhere, random, psychotic weirdoes but by definition if someone has previous or they ain’t right in the head, keeping a gun away from them might be a good idea.

    I agree.  There are some obvious cases of mentally ill, previous offenders, etc.

    I mean I would argue that no terrorists should own guns but maybe that's just me. :shrugs: 

    So would you be in favour of some form of common sense gun laws?

    That's a tricky question.  It's hard to predict what someone is capable of doing.  Many people that go on killing sprees have no criminal history.  Common sense gun laws to me would be taking them away from previous offenders.  Like a guy that points a gun at a pregnant woman's stomach during a robbery.

    One person was shot dead in Portland. Early reports suggest it was a right wing counter protestor.

    This follows the many rnc speeches by trump and others about “law and order” where Trunp specifically condemned the liberal leadership in Portland.

    Do you know the description of the shooter?  Because for some strange reason it doesn't seem important this time.

    For the umpteenth time my point was that heads of state should advocate for "peace".  Let me simplify it for you...this is my post to downzy, since both of you guys seemed to have put on your boxing gloves this morning, ready to knock out the straw man...:P

    He has been mostly advocating for "peace" since his disastrous original tweet.  He amended his original tweet after tweeting it and replaced it with "more appropriate" tweets. 

    He knew it was a mistake and he changed it.  I commend him for acknowledging his mistake and taking appropriate actions to correct it.  (Even if it was a day or two after the riots started).

     

    Is that better? 

     

     

     

     

    I completely understand what you're saying.  The damage has been done and now the guy is on damage control.
