Pretty sure they're not allowed on school premises, but it *is* Texas and so...maybe?
And Rittenhouse's possession of the gun was legal-determined at trial.
Unlike Kyle Rittenhouse, Karmelo Anthony carried the weapon he was legally allowed to carry. This is Texas. People carry gun EVERYWHERE with no pushback from the people complaining about Karmelo carrying a knife!
What Mamdani is doing is fine-but what he hasn't done is stop policing policies he opposed before being elected that are directly contributing to this.
Which is to say yes "tough on crime" works.
Karmelo Anthony aint do a damn thing wrong
If my child finds themselves surrounded by angry, violent, gun happy, raping-ass women beating ass racist ass white boys
and the crakkker lay a hand on my child
I tell my babies to do what they got to do to come home
And right now there are dozens of Black people not making it home turning up lynched
KARMELO ANTHONY WAS RIGHT!
You racists are orgnaizing aroung "TOTAL NIGGER DEATH" hashtage #TND
and you want us to play around with you????
Wonder why Austin Metcalf didn’t go get a coach or an adult instead of asking Anthony to leave multiple times and pushing him. Truth is, both Anthony and Metcalf had other options that they failed to use. With that being said, I wonder how the defense is going to use the testimonies of the prosecution’s own witnesses as leverage. Honestly, their own witnesses helped the defense if you ask me.
Europe et al is descending into dangerously authoritarian liberalism.
Y'all arrest people for tweets, give harsher sentences to sexual assault victims for speech than you do the people who assaulted them, and give up ever more freedoms for...what do you get exactly?
Spare us the civilisational lectures, you charlatan.
Atatiana Jefferson, 2019. Shot dead through her bedroom window during a welfare check. Playing video games with her eight-year-old nephew. The officer never identified himself.
Botham Jean, 2018. Shot dead eating ice cream in his own apartment by an off-duty officer who "thought it was her apartment".
John Albers, 2018. Seventeen years old. His friends called police because he was suicidal. Officers killed him during the welfare check.
Parkland, 2018. Seventeen children and staff massacred in their school. The armed officer paid to protect them? Hid outside.
Shajarah Tayyebeh Elementary School, Minab, February 2026. At least 175 dead, most of them girls aged 7 to 12. NYT analysis and US military investigators believe American forces struck the school. Trump blamed Iran without evidence. US Senators are still waiting for answers.
In 2025, American police killed 1,201 people. 98 unarmed. 233 school shootings at K-12 schools. American children do active shooter drills in primary school. American families are afraid to call for welfare checks because officers shoot the people they're sent to help.
Henry Nowak's father said: "We do not want Henry's murder to be used to create further hatred, division or tension". You used it anyway, to lecture a country 3,000 miles away while your administration bombs schoolgirls and your officers shoot people through bedroom windows.
The UK's government has plenty to answer for. But we don't take civilisational lectures from those who run a country that can't keep its children alive in their own classrooms and in their own homes and bomb children in far away lands, you pathetic charlatan.
Question about the “Take extra change when you need it” containers at @bucees. Was short (forgot debit card) around $6.32 at the register. So I took a hand full of change from a few containers around me. Caught some grief from customers. What’s the protocol with these containers?
@CreditWx@atlurbanist The bar for me to switch to "yes I want State level officials to commit some level of support to MARTA" is quite low but they won't meet it.
@CreditWx@atlurbanist Not until they start enforcing fares, at the bare minimum.
I actually want Georgia to have nice things, including public transit where it exists (such as MARTA) but until MARTA shows some accountability I'll take a state surplus refund over throwing money into a blender.
@atlurbanist When Marta behaves in a responsible fashion to collect dates and stop antisocial behavior.
As a resident of Georgia, that's when I'll support state funding.
"Cracker."
It's just a word. A word that evaporates the moment it is said. It only has power if you give it power.
The police can't do anything about words. Words are not violence.
Violence is violence.
Cracker is just a word. Please remember that. No one was injured because this man is acting like a toddler.
It. Is. Just. A. Word.
you don’t know your ancestors. you don’t know what evil shit they may have done. but even if they were personally not terrible people, if this is the kind of life they lived they still participated in and benefitted from an evil settler colonialist system
Yeah, a "normal person from 1995" totally argued that 1/3 of the US population should be deported and foreign-born Americans shouldn't be able to hold public office
