Yeah, it's awesome that he's dead.

I think it's time to start celebrating all those who die in places where the police are no longer welcome, too. Talk about some serious ass Social Darwinism.

You know the NBA has problems when it's even lost ESPN on an issue: https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...lack-schooling

More or less, the NBA's preposterous approach to China.

No celebrations. Just fact. If you are too stupid to follow the advice of real medical experts to make a political point, you deserve what you get.

Natural selection is a thing.

[iam416]

Indeed, it is a thing. And we're seeing in cities where people are too stupid to understand the need for law enforcement. Getting what they deserve.

It's just fantastic when people who DESERVE TO DIE actually die.

AstraZeneca is still saying that if the current trials go well that they will start distributing vaccine in October/November. They also said the data coming in from the current trials is consistent w/ earlier results, though, of course, we're still early on in the current trials.

October/November would be nothing short of a miracle. A fucking miracle. Now, I'm sure there's a ton of uncertainty as to how long the vaccine lasts and other long-term effectiveness questions. But, still....

I suspect there'd be a lot more sympathy and compassion for the passing of Mr. Cain had his politics lined up more with that of Barack Obama, the BLM, and the NAACP.

Evidence of this is happening today, where everybody with a "name" is jumping in line to honor the memory of Rep. John Lewis, a liberal democrat who never strayed from his liberal politics. Shoot, they're even allowing GWB and Laura to attend his funeral. Who'd thought we'd ever see THAT after he "stole" the 2000 election?

Herman Cain's funeral will probably draw less than 100 people, the major news outlets will totally ignore it, and I doubt that Barack Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton or even GWB will find time to attend that one. Covid concerns, .. and all that, of course.

He deserved to die.

He was an idiot. Had a liberal done the same, I would say the same. He chose to ignore advice of experts and caught the democrat hoax. It's almost as if he said, "hold my beer and watch this shit."

Stupid is stupid.

Trump is probably pissed off at Cain for making him look bad.

Yeah, man, when you start talking "deserves" to die and expressing, at a minimum, an explicit satisfaction in one's death, then I don't know. And make no mistake -- you are expressing satisfaction in his death -- satisfaction that he got what he "deserved." And his "crime" -- ignoring experts.

I find it really, really distasteful. Appalling, really.

Oh bullshit. There is certainly no "explicit satisfaction in one's death" Good Lord. Relax, Drama Queen.

He's no different than this dumbass.

Authorities say a 28-year-old Texas man was attacked and killed by an alligator “almost immediately” after being warned by a bystander not to swim in the water, replying “fuck that alligator” before jumping in, Buzzfeed reports.

“I asked him please do not go swimming, there’s a bigger alligator out here, just please stay out of the water,” an employee of Burkhart’s Marina in Orange, Texas told KFDM. “The next thing I know, I don’t even know how long it was, I saw his body floating face down and then he’s up there for a couple seconds and then he gets dragged back down and pulled off.”

According to police, marina employees put up a sign forbidding swimming after recently spotting a “pretty damn big” 11-foot alligator in the water. From the Houston Chronicle:

But that didn’t deter [Tommie] Woodward, who showed up early Friday with a young woman, telling the staff closing the marina’s burger joint that he was jumping in. They begged him not to, but the 28-year-old did anyway and his friend followed. Suddenly, witnesses told police, a large alligator emerged from under the dock.

[...]

Sheriff’s deputies and park rangers found Woodward dead in the water more than two hours later at about 4:30 a.m. near the marina in the 1800 block of Mississippi Street. Orange Police Capt. Robert Enmon said he suffered major trauma to his left arm and puncture wounds to his upper left chest. The alligator attack, the second one in the region this week, is believed to be the first fatal encounter in Texas in at least two centuries.

“Whether it’s a speed limit sign on a freeway, a fireworks message, whatever, heed the warning sign,” Orange County Justice of the Peace Rodney Price said Friday, “follow that because a failure to heed that can result in a terrible tragedy for your family.”

Of course there is. You just won’t admit it. It’s total trash and you can’t back-pedal your way out of it. Just own it.

Lots of Rs are going to be holding their nose in November. And the Ds will proclaim the Republican Party dead. That’s the way it goes.

Haha! What a clown. You proclaim. Therefore it is.

Chill out, Drama Queen.

So much backpedaling. Just embarrassing. And you know it. You know exactly how you feel. At least you’re ashamed—you’re not a total trash human being.
