Ehh…I guess, if we’re going by the “one drop” rule. Otherwise, we’re looking at a half-white, half-black guy that was adopted by white folks at five weeks of age. Being that white, I’m surprised he even talks about any blackness. What with this being a racist society and all. I’m sure he’d be doing way better for himself if he totally rejected his black side. What a courageous hero.
Good thing that virtuous corporation sacked those teenagers working for something probably not that far removed from minimum wage as I someone put it (trying to recall where I saw it put like that).
It is possible, and judging from what I can make out in the video highly likely, that this has zero to do with race. How does this even make the news?
Watch out for the teachers playing hangman with their students.
Anyways. My gosh the witch hunts. It’s going to get far worse.
Regarding Mt. Rushmore (I’m a resident of S.D.), I didn’t mind Trump visiting, the timing was just bad, in my opinion. His son and his girlfriend went bar hopping in Rapid City that night and she tested positive for Covid the next morning, haha, so that about sums up why it seemed like a poor choice.
Morricone’s music was basically a third or a fourth billed actor in a movie.
For Man with a Harmonica, Sergio Leone had Morricone compose and record the score before the production even started so that he could play it to the actors while a scene was being filmed.
I agree completely with your list, just wanted to add The Mission:
Yes, exactly! I posted that scene from Once Upon A Time in the West also to show how Sergio Leone started editing scenes to his music instead of just using music as the background.
Only women who never lived in the ghetto could come up with something so divorced from reality. They haven’t experienced the darkest sides of human nature. Hugs don’t fix sociopaths.
There was a time when I would have agreed with that but now, I think we almost need to let the idiots get their way and then step in to clean up their mess.
Honestly, the stuff we have been doing hasn’t worked… why keep throwing more money in the same pit? Lets try something radical and analyze the results for what worked and what didn’t. If the people affected are onboard (these policies will be voted on), then lets start the experiment.
What do you mean? If it gets implemented, it would seem pretty new and radical… at least in this day and age in America. Or are you saying these policies have been talked about before and this is just a rehashing of un-implemented hot air from years past?
I’m saying that schools and communities have had social workers, psychologists and counselors for years now and nothing has changed. They want to continue the same social programs, but with even more money, only now, without the police. Have those programs been failures because of the cops or because they just don’t work? Note how they don’t tell us what their objectives are and how we will measure them. It’s all vague.
Eh, going all in on the social worker side of things with budgets and emphasis is better than going all in on the police and enforcement side of things IMO. Touchy feely wild west vs dystopian big brother military state.
Change needs to happen, and maybe removing the training wheels (police) will force these communities with serious issues to take responsibility and change. Or it will blow up.
