A simple lesson in physics should do the trick. Kids, here's what happens when 150 lbs. of stupidity steps in front of 3,000 lbs. of moving car and the driver does NOT apply the brakes.
WARNING: Vehicle occupants may occasionally experience a slight bumping sensation under the tires and muffled screams have been reported
Well, my way is more humane.. Although your way is more satisfying. We need to come to a compromise. How about a law that let's us shoot em first, then run them over?
Humane? You're such a killjoy! Driving
past over the human "barricade" is just the physics lesson. The real fun begins when you rev the motor, slap it into reverse and watch the remaining protesters scatter.
P.S. We'll need a car with a good backup camera!
Why does everything have to be politicized?

The Manhattan-based dance company featured in the White House’s annual Christmas video Thursday endorses discredited “antiracism” activists and radical left-wing causes, including prison abolition and defunding law enforcement.
First lady Jill Biden shared Dorrance Dance’s “playful interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite” on X Thursday, which was widely panned for its “Hunger Games” and “Clockwork Orange” aesthetic.
While the tap routine appeared apolitical, the dance troupe’s website is anything but – promoting far-left policies that are even out of step with the Biden administration.
“I am a white tap dancer with Black cultural ancestors in a society that privileges white people and whiteness,” Michelle Dorrance, the company’s founder, writes in a note on the troupe’s website titled, “Why antiracism work is important to me.”
“I am easy for white audiences wanting to access and experience elements of Black culture to swallow. My whiteness is the reason you may have heard of me before two of my inspirations,” she adds, referencing two contemporary black tap dancers, Ayodele Casel and Dormeshia.
“It is imperative for me, and those who look like me, to acknowledge that. It is imperative for us to fight against racist norms that have defined American culture since its very origin.”...

That [BLEEP] is microagressing and culturally appropriating Italian dance. She needs to shut up until she quits and apologizes.
I love this leftist prevarication. Wu says a mistake was made. Not the glaring hypocrisy of hosting a 'no whites allowed' party, but the fact the email invitation was mistakenly sent to white people.

...Tabitha Bonilla, an associate professor at Northwestern University's Institute for Policy Research, said such groups and events often help people of color and others historically excluded from elected office to navigate these spaces and deal with the unique challenges and pressures they face.
"Affinity spaces can be really important when you're trying to expand access to different arenas... People of color are historically underrepresented in elected office, and so you can imagine it would be important to have safe spaces for people to come together and talk," she said...
When whites become the minority in this country, can we claim safe spaces? Just asking.

I've hosted many parties that happened to only include white people. I never said other races weren't allowed, I just couldn't think of any that I wanted to invite. Anybody is allowed to throw parties like this on their own time.
As a general rule, never use work email to plan social events unless the boss is paying.

Are you intentionally missing the point or are you attempting to foster some kind of understanding? I honestly don’t know.

I'm saying "our only mistake was getting caught" is kind of a valid point of view on this.

I definitely think she should have been as low key as possible and she should have left as little of a paper trail and photo trail as practical, but, inviting a targeted group of friends to a private party is not a bad thing. It would be exhausting for all of us if we weren't allowed to throw parties until we had a sufficiently diverse group of friends.

I just don't understand him, sometimes. Although there are some on here who would argue with Mike over anything, I think he makes some salient points on occasion. At other times, like this, his willful obtuseness is baffling.

No one here gets to me. I just don't understand the selectively applied logic and ethics. But that's a calling card of the left. If found violating the same edicts they demand of others, they just change the definition. Like the Harvard president who won't call out antisemitism on her campus, and when it was discovered she had committed over two dozen instances of plagiarism in her doctoral thesis, they simply changed the standard to "instances of inadequate citation". But we all know if she were someone they were at ideological odds with, or someone they couldn't hold up as a model for their DEI policies, she would be canned immediately.
The rest of the world calls these things hypocrisy. I can't wait to see the left's new definition for that word.

I saw that in the news, and I think it's terrible. if a white mayor threw a party, and said it was for white city council people only, the outcry would be incredible, and justifiably so.

Sure. It’s obvious to any casual observer who is willing to put aside their political biases in order to see the truth.
This, and the responses of denial, are exactly what is separating this country. It ain’t just the bad orange man.
