    Where’s the cop, you ask? Standing outside a school shooting, preventing anyone from rescuing the kids.

      That’s misleading because that’s not that often. Most of the cops are beating up innocent black people, shooting your beloved dog, and performing no knock warrants on the wrong house.

        I would do the same if they weren’t so frequent. The statistics are certainly against that many people having an emergency.

        yes same, i even let them in front of me and don’t waste any time thinking about them or allowing them to put me in danger.

      This has been real bad in Chicago, where there’s no left green arrow people scoot up to the left turn lane and floor it when the light turns green. Endangering themselves and everyone around them to get 3 cars ahead in the same traffic.

      Women’s World Cup a few days ago.

      English forward Lauren James and Nigerian defender Michelle Alozie. In the 87th minute, James pushed an already down Alozie and then stomped on Alozie’s back. James was initially given a yellow card before VAR stepped in and issued a red card, which disqualified her from the match.
