no nothing like that. nowhere did I suggest anything like WET. what I said is the opposite, we don't need or wouldn't want specific white history, so why do we want specific black history.Quote:

As a talking point to "prove" something I agree, but I bet people would flip out if CBS renamed themselves White Broadcasting System.Quote:

Black people are not represented on television, thus BET. White people are more than represented, not victimized, and don't have a history of being ignored. WET would be a mockery of the struggles of minorities.Quote:

I just hate it when black socialist communists speak out against how society has treated black people. It sucks when they call out the bull**** “lift yourself up by your bootstraps” nonsense.

New court docs say George Floyd had "fatal level" of fentanyl in his system
Defense attorneys argue drug overdose and pre-existing health conditions caused Floyd's death.
Quote:
"If he were found dead at home alone and no other apparent causes, this could be acceptable to call an OD. Deaths have been certified with levels of 3," Baker told investigators.
In another new document, Baker said, "That is a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances."
But then Baker added, "I am not saying this killed him."
Tucker Carlson wasn't accurate.Quote:
The documents say Baker performed the autopsy before watching the videos of police restraining Floyd, with Officer Derek Chauvin's knee on Floyd's neck, because Baker wanted to avoid bias in his autopsy.
In Baker's final report after watching the videos, he ruled Floyd's death a homicide caused by "law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression."
