@FreddyLA7@laurdkog Freddy, I want you to try a four loco, buzz ball, and a beatbox, they are all alcohol and just as terrible as then sound then I want you to find a Hofbräuhaus, and do a shot-ski and participate in the Masskrugstemmen, you may hate the food but I need your review… please
i’m so mad at fifa for banning tailgates at the world cup. these euro tourists would’ve lovedddd getting free hotdogs and beers shoved into their hands by an overweight dad named bob
Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
This is the most “The European mind can’t comprehend this” moment of my life. One of my friends said, “Punch me five times tomorrow and I’ll still think this isn’t real.”
@mrs_alyse I can still go on a cruise in the Caribbean with my enhanced license so why would I renew my passport, their argument is aways “they don’t have passports” but we’re important enough to be let in with $30 upgrades to our state licenses
@DisplacedSabres It’s honestly brutal, there’s very few places unless you go about a mile uptown, that’s the downside of a city where hardly anyone actually lives in the true downtown
@MaddenCapital@CollinRugg I am trying to figure out how it’s possible because they just lowered the points to suspend a license to 11 in 18 months and this is 16/year. speeding is 3 points minimum so the only people this applies to should have a suspension and not allowed to drive in the first place
