As an Asian American, I am truly sorry for that. I can’t personally speak well on the subject but I always encourage people to read this NPR article from 2017.

‘Model Minority’ Myth Again Used As A Racial Wedge Between Asians And Blacks
Well in this case I hope they can’t legally claim to not be fascist anymore.
🤷♂️ At the rate seasons have been getting produced with Kate, and formerly Glenn and Rob doing other shows since 2021, you have two years to catch up. Seasons have been two years apart as of season 15.
I saw multiple instances this year of teens wearing those inflatable arm cuffs for swimming that you give little kids.
The TV show CSI would say otherwise about that.

This wasn’t even a Presidential Address broadcast live, right? That alone should tell you what this whole thing means to them.
There is a big difference between. Most people who aren’t actively engaged in this type of discourse like you and I, or don’t pay meticulous attention to conservative media outlets, likely don’t know who Kirk is, let alone care.
MLK Jr. got historically important exposure on television with the broadcast of the March on Washington, D.C. This was one of the first civil rights events to be televised. When you have a new medium to disseminate news that for the first time gives you not just the voice but the image of the people involved, I think that has a huge impact. Prior to this, MLK Jr. was a highly respected religious leader.
Most people today, would probably have to seek out non-governmental sides of political discourse, to even know who Kirk is. I have no doubt your average conservative that watches Fox News has been exposed to Kirk, but they likely won’t recall any talking points. He wasn’t in an elected office. Today, that would probably be the only reason any lay person would listen to them.
Someone probably equates the political nature and him being white to what happened to MLK Jr.
Okay, thank you for mentioning that. I was unaware he was from Puerto Rico.
Honestly, depending on your ethnicity or where you live, touring as a musician in the U.S. these days seems difficult because of that for you and your fans. I don’t get why anyone overseas would want to tour in the U.S. right now.
Is the shooter a person of color? Seriously, ask yourself that. Likely that is the citing factor for someone coming up with fucking bullshit like this. When the shooter is white, the defenders of gun rights will point to mental health. The point I am making is that POC will be a used as a scapegoat to upturn causes in society for their actions while a white person is largely upheld by gun rights advocates as a sign of failure to address mental health.
Then logically one could infer that they would rather die than prevent the senseless violence.
EDIT: I’m not advocating for anyone’s death or praising what occurred. I just wanted to point to how moronic his stance was. Why would anyone say any death from gun violence is okay?
I have to keep reminding my self how Dr. Spaceman is pronounced.
🤨
My mind immediately went there.
I had shepards pie at a pub once. Full disclosure I was 13 years old (traveling with family). I thought it was okay as I recall. That’s British, right?
I recently went to a private lake, in a Northern California city. I won’t bother saying where since most would not know of the area. Anyways, the lake is not very large. However being Labor Day weekend, lots of families were present. One man decided to play reggae on a speaker fairly loud and shout some obscenities a lot.
Apparently someone parked a car next to theirs and they thought it was too close. The other driver didn’t want to do anything. So each time he and his family walked passed him he would yell about how “fucking awesome” it was to be at the lake and tell that other man obscenely to go back to The Bay Area. It got bad enough that my mom called sheriffs and other people had complained too. The sheriff came and talked to him. He spent the rest of the time on an inflatable raft just drifting on the water.
Overheard some kids and it sounded like the man had done similar the day before.
EDIT: It wasn’t interesting. Simply a public nuisance.
But Trump said recently that Israel has lost control of Congress.
How long till they start legally labeling all trans people as “mentally deficient” or declare them all no longer citizens just to bar them from having guns?
If Trump thinks this is genuine, then he really isn’t very bright.
