As a bit of a tandem, clicking at these various X posts while not logged in, it seems like Musk might finally be loosening the annoying login constraints he instituted.

You can see a small number of replies while not logged in. It's like 3-4 visible replies out of 900-2,000 total replies. But this is the first time I can recall being able to see any replies when not logged in ever since Musk bought the website.

Also, if you look at the profiles, everybody's posts is seemingly in a logical order now with their most recent post listed first, rather than having some random post they made 5 years ago listed first.

FA, FO.
Open-and-shut case for anyone interested in maintaining a safe, orderly society.

The mayor should announce that the shooting is being reviewed, but make it clear that the city stands behind its police unless the evidence gives them a reason not to. Then simply enforce the law. Peaceful protest is protected. Threatening citizens, destroying property, blocking roads, and causing public chaos in the name of “jusssis” are not. Arrest anyone who crosses that line immediately, give them the harshest possible sentence.

That’s how Madison gets ahead of the inevitable BLM/Antifa violence instead of surrendering the streets and pretending nobody could have seen it coming.

I know Madison so I know how those people sitting there awkwardly very likely voted, which makes this so delicious

It is because of trash white democrats allowing this to happen. They wouldn't do crap if they weren't helped by the White Democrats.

The protestors seem to all be black, so maybe even white Democrats are tired of these BLM protests at this point. In contrast, in 2020, I swear to God that it seemed like most of the BLM protestors were white.

They never will. Tribalism, combined with a dishonest crooked leftist media constantly stoking racial resentment, has completely warped people’s perception of reality.

Go watch those old “man on the street” interviews where people were asked how many unarmed black men police had killed that year. The answers ranged from hundreds to thousands. The actual number recorded for 2019 at the time was nine. Which most/if not all are easily justifiable from the police's perspective.

Bingo

Madison is the most leftist big city in Wisconsin. Outside of one tiny county with 1,500 votes, no county in WI votes more heavily "blue" than Dane County (where Madison is located). This is 1000% an incidence of "reaping what you sow".

Interesting name, Corey Ruiz. He's a black man if he's shot by police, but he's a white man if he shoots a black person. Very interesting name indeed.

No, they (White Democrats) are using the blacks and are sitting just on the outside, waiting for their time on the mic.

Most of the White Democrats have moved on to protesting about "Trans" issues, but they will jump back on the BLM bandwagon when the time is right.

If you think the White Democrats are "tired" of the BLM stuff, you are 100 percent wrong. Anything that gives them power, they will jump at it.

The mayor is an ultra-progressive lesbian who said this during the George Floyd protests:

quote:

"George Floyd should be alive tonight and the fact that he isn't, is an American tragedy... I also want to say that I completely agree with the protestors that were around the Capitol square and right here in front of this building earlier today. I agree with their message, I agree with their right to protest and I agree with how determinedly and peacefully they protested today."


Then, after the "protestors" did what they always do, started destroying stuff in Madison, she quietly made a video to the police expressing her support for them. The video was supposed to be just for the police. However, when it leaked out she apologized to the "protestors" for making the video.

No other city in Wisconsin encourages this behavior more than Madison. They are getting EXACTLY what they think they want. Leftism sounds great in theory...until it shows up and ruins your dinner party

Wow I've stayed literally 50 yards from where that incident happened. Instantly recognized that dive bar on the corner, Crystal Corner Bar. Actually was a great area to stay for the Bama/Wisconsin game.


Could have been you...if you're mother didn't crap you out just so that she could get a gubment check and your father was completely absent which would have led you down a path of being a violent piece of shite......IT COULD HAVE BEEN YOU.

Well my understanding from reading articles about this story yesterday is that the police requested funding for body cameras a few years ago, but the city leadership voted against it. Would have been a lot easier to put this fire out if they had body cam footage from 2-3 different officers that showed the suspect pulling a knife during the struggle and trying to stab officers with it.

Remember when liberals were demanding that all cops should be wearing body cameras. Then most cops started wearing body cameras and the footage ended up showing the reality of what cops have to put up with. Now liberal cities like Madison deny funding for their police to have body cams and now they're going to be dealing with BLM riots as a result.
