I regret to announce that the 4th of July will be canceled this year as the American experiment has been hijacked by Christofascist forces.

"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

Americans are celebrating all around me; I can hear the gunpowder going off, and I saw some of the flashes.
Anyone who isn't celebrating isn't an American. US citizen, maybe, but American? No.
Ben Shapiro’s sister will tell you how to celebrate the 4th like a real white American.
We can't have fireworks around here anyway because climate change has made wildfires too easy to start. So I ordered a pizza and played the shit out of my Les Paul. A different kind of fireworks.

You're pathetic if you can't even rig up a propane or carbide cannon in lieu of firecrackers and rockets.

Interesting conversation with Michael S. Regan.
Maybe a little Christofascism isn't such a bad idea in lieu of all of the mass shootings and general lack of morality and values in the country eh?
Latest magat conspiracy theory is Biden is feminizing the military by forcing them to eat soy and vegan foods.
Doug, we had natural fire works today around 4 AM and it was followed by a decent rain which we needed badly. Now it is supposed to get to 95 today.

Yeah, that's appropriate, Field, but what makes you think next year will be any better? Even if the next Senate and Congress are overwhelmingly Democratic, it'll take more than one round of legislation to bring the country back, even halfway. Those Justices are all healthy—below the cerebral cortex, anyway.
Still, glad to see this page. This 4th is NOT like any others.

5 killed, 19 hurt in Highland Park shooting along parade route; 4th of July events canceled

"NEGRO SHOOTING
5 killed, 19 hurt in Highland Park shooting along parade route; 4th of July events canceled"
Really? Um, you really just jumped on this one a bit too soon. Just wondering where you got your information? Shooter is about as Black as the cops that whooped your dumb ass. LOL!
“NEGRO SHOOTING
5 killed, 19 hurt in Highland Park shooting along parade route; 4th of July events canceled”
Reading is fundamental. No one has yet been apprehended, so it’s too soon to know the shooter’s ethnicity, but the story you yourself posted says the cops are currently looking for a white male with a rifle.
If we’re making bets on the identity of the shooter, some strong contenders include:
1) Angry insane person (true for all mass shootings)
2) Jew-hating Nazi (Highland Park is a heavily Jewish suburb of Chicago)

Not so fast, dumb racist. According to the article on Huff Post, the shooter is a young white male. Surprise! Surprise!
"5 killed, 19 hurt in Highland Park shooting along parade route; 4th of July events canceled"
Police recovered a rifle but still consider the suspect to be armed and dangerous, according to Chris Covelli, a spokesperson for Lake County Major Crime Task Force. Covelli described the shooter as a white male, about 18 to 20 years old, who appeared to fire shots from a rooftop. He said the shooting appeared to be “completely random.”

We’re not dealing with the best and brightest. We’re talking about a troll so dumb that going to sleep at a motel without being awakened by four cop beating his ass isn’t possible. And now the ignoramous walks around his house with a gun in case more cops “kidnap” him again. Not the most stable or intelligent of individuals. I’m getting Mike Pillow type vibes.

Seriously, this guy looks seriously disturbed and I don't think his elevator reaches the top floor.
"In lieu of the latest mass shooting incident at a parade, maybe a little Christianity would be a great idea eh?"
So far, there's nothing to suggest this clown wasn't, in fact, a Christian, and definitely nothing to suggest that spending loads of time in a church pew would've fixed him.
Yet somehow, that doesn't appear to have stopped you chiming in with this dumb shit.

“You mean Awoke the Rapper who made a video depicting a mass shooting and getting killed by the cops in a last shootout? I mean who could have seen this coming?”
I think it’s safe to predict lots of Republican politicians will offer idiotic takes, along the lines of: “Let’s ban rap, not guns.”
The dude will probably turn out to have played video games, so obviously those will be to blame, too.

Just a gentle reminder.... US covid deaths stand @ approximately 1.2 million. Some hoax.
Bullshit. The directive from on high was to register any death with COVID as FROM COVID, even if the decedent was already dying of congestive heart failure, cancer or some other terminal condition.
Our government cannot be trusted, period.
The Highland Park shooter, Robert Crimo, apparently attended a Trump Rally.
Furthermore Crimo "was also the administrator of a Discord channel named 'SS,' the shortened moniker used by the infamous Nazi paramilitary group, the Schutzstaffel, who were mainly responsible for carrying out the numerous atrocities during the Holocaust, reported The Daily Beast."

For anyone parched for loopy, erudite satire, please check out Dennard Dayle's "Everything Abridged," which is much less categorizable than the "stories" designation given on the publisher's dust jacket. Or read a few of his articles in the New Yorker first, especially the last one about his being "detained" for the high crime of putting a flyer on a city lamppost. ("chicken winged?" really, NYPD? cuffs on a Columbia professor?) As another Jamaican-American, Field should have got a complimentary copy already.

Not much is known yet about the politics of the Highland Park shooter, but his dad appears to be a Trump-loving gun nutter.
So it's no surprise that the son had access to heavy weaponry, even after the police had previously been called to his home to take his knife collection away. Because it was no secret he was a messed-up little dude.
I truly hate these people. They love to lecture everybody else about "personal responsibility" but never manage to exhibit any of their own. If you know your son is a complete freakshow, why would you let him anywhere near your personal arsenal of military-grade firearms (which you almost certainly don't need anyway)?

In shithole Mississippi, a 38 y/o Black man with 2 previous felonies was given a life sewntgence w/o parole for possessikon of 1.54 ounces of pot.
Miss law says 3 felo ies, with at least one violent felony, gets you a life sentence, even though this guys previous felonies were non-violent burglary and a felon in possession of a firearm, also non violent.
Fucking courts and judges are bat shit crazy.
Decidedly dead Jayland Walker's body arrfived at the m edical examiners office still handcuffed. Guess the pigs were afraid he might escape the meat wagon and they would have to expend another 90 caps to put an end to any future life he might have had.
Highland Park killer was shiown on the grolund handcuffed with a pig holding his legs and another near his waist. N o kn ees on the neck. No ton of p;ork trying to smother the life out of him. here were about a dozen pigs around his vehicle when they caught him and not a shot was fired. Pigs didn't want to lose immunity by violating whitey killer's 4th amendment rights.
"Negroes commit Highland Park level atrocities EVERY WEEK in democratic cities across America."
And your dumb ass even blamed that one on Black folk and was wrong. Gonna admit your mistake? And since you wanna blame black folk how come you're the only asshole who had to be dragged from a motel room and given a mental evaluation and none of the Black folk here? And stop deflecting when crazy ass white men shoot up a BUNCH of people. It takes a whole week of multiple shooters to equate to one crazy ass white boy like you. And gee, he shot a bunch of elderly people. What is up with you crazy mother fuckers killing babies and old people? You all need a fucking mental health evaluation just like you.
So Laura Ingraham is blaming weed. Good god!
"So Laura Ingraham is blaming weed. Good god!"
She'll soon get around to blaming rap and video games, too, like I was saying earlier.
Maaaayyyybe she'll come closer to the truth and blame mental illness. But then if you ask how much the government should spend to increase spending on treating mental illness, suddenly she won't give a shit about the mentally ill anymore.
But you can be damn sure guns will appear nowhere on her list of factors that caused this tragedy.

Bad ideas never die on the right. They’re still ranting about the dire threat of socialism ruining America, same as in the McCarthy era. And the current QAnon pedo panic feels very much recycled from the ‘80s, although they seem to have retooled it so that the transexuals, not the gays, are the ones trying to rape your kids this time around, so I guess that’s a new wrinkle.

I feel like the students and faculty are the ones getting trolled by DeSantis.
In order to attend/work at their universities, they will probably have to answer multiple-choice questionnaires asking about their political views, with the available options being:
A) I am a Republican.
B) I am a godless, communist, woke, pedophile Democrat who hates America.
“A) I am a Republican.“
So let’s all choose A. LOL!

“What is going on with B.J. over in Britain?”
What’s happening is that, much like Trump, his party realized that Johnson’s chaotic, corrupt, incompetent management style was a political liability — polling indicated he was causing them to lose tons of voter support. After multiple, multiple scandals, the final straw was Johnson’s backing of a sex offender (one of several, actually) within his government.
Unlike with Trump, the negative polling has made them simply replace Johnson with someone who is (hopefully) less scandal-prone, rather than try to overthrow democracy, January 6th-style, and keep their leader in place against the will of the majority of people.
Shorter version:
UK Tories: "Our leader is unpopular and will get voted out. Let's get rid of him."
US Republicans: "Our leader is unpopular and will get voted out. Let's get rid of voting."
Brittney Griner pled guilty to drug charges today. Not that it mattered -- she would've been found guilty no matter which way she pled, and no matter what the evidence was. Everybody knows this is a sham trial and she is a hostage of the Russian government.

Man Killed Lyft Driver, Drove Stolen Vehicle to a Family Event: Authorities
A man is accused of murdering a Lyft driver, then driving the victim’s stolen vehicle to a family event. Devin Powell, 24, is charged with murder, robbery, and theft, online records show. Police say he fatally shot Anthony Garland, 34, leaving the man face down in the grass in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Officers said they were called out to the 3000 block of Rolling Dunes Drive early Thursday morning. A coroner found six “defects” on the body of the then-unidentified man.
“All were consistent with gunshot wounds,” officers said.
Police said they found no shell casings. The victim had no personal property except for some change.
“The male had a visible defect to the top of his head and there was a pool of blood under his face,” police said. “There was also some blood staining his shirt on his back and on his leg. There was a plastic glove similar to those used in food service with blood on it lying next to the body.”
Officers managed to identify him as Garland by matching his description to his missing person case.
His wife told cops her husband worked for Lyft as a driver. He was out working the night before, she said, telling them he drove a 2013 GMC Acadia.
Cops got a warrant for Lyft records, showing them that Powell’s account was Garland’s last ride.
Using GPS, officers traced the vehicle to Merrillville, Indiana, stopped it, and found Powell with a passenger.
“Officers could see what appeared to be blood stains around the center console,” police said.
The passenger, who identified himself as Powell’s cousin, said that the vehicle belonged to Powell, according to authorities.
“He said Mr. Powell had driven up from Indianapolis that day for a family function,” officers wrote.
Powell also told officers he drove to Merrillville for a family function. He claimed to have discovered the vehicle running but driverless, officers said.
“When asked about the car he was in, the white Acadia, Mr. Powell said that he had found the vehicle on Waterfront Parkway as he was walking to the gas station,” police wrote. “He said the car was running and the door was open. He said that he watched the car for a few minutes and when no one came around, he got in the car and drove it away. Mr. Powell said that he later saw the news about the guy found dead where he found the car. He admitted that he also had a gun in the car but said there was no way his gun killed that man.”
He at first denied called for a Lyft that day, but eventually admitted using his account to call for a ride, officers said. Then, he confessed to shooting Garland, police said.
“Mr. Powell eventually admitted using his Lyft account to call for a ride and then admitted to shooting Mr. Garland with the gun that he saw was still in the white Acadia,” cops said. “He said that Mr. Garland was trying to screw him over and take his money and that he shot Mr. Garland in self-defense. He said that he was in the back seat on the passenger side and that Mr. Garland turned around in the driver’s seat and tried to pull the money from Mr. Powell’s hand. He said that he pulled his gun and shot Mr. Garland four times.”
Powell allegedly said he pulled Garland’s body out of the vehicle.
“After the shooting, Mr. Powell said that he went to his apartment located at 3002 Bayside Drive, Indianapolis, Marion County, IN. Mr. Powell’s address is located within 100 yards of where the victim’s body was found,” police wrote. “At the apartment, he said that he cleaned up and changed clothing. He also admitted to buying seat covers for the front two seats to cover up the blood stains. He also said he vacuumed up the four shell casings.”

Overall, we rate the Geller Report Questionable based on extreme right bias, promotion of propaganda and conspiracies, as well as extreme anti-Islamic views and numerous false claims.

History
Founded in 2016, the Geller Report is the personal blog/website of Pamela Geller, who is best known for her Anti-Islamic writings. According to her about page: “Pamela Geller is the founder, editor, and publisher of The Geller Report and President of the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) and Stop Islamization of America (SIOA). She is a foremost defender of the freedom of speech against attempts to force the West to accept Sharia blasphemy laws and against Sharia self-censorship by Western media outlets.”
The American Freedom Defense Initiative is an anti-Muslim, pro-Israel American organization known primarily for its controversial, Islamophobic advertising campaigns. The group has been described as extremist and far-right. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) lists SIOA as an anti-Muslim hate group.
In 2010, Pamela Geller began a controversial campaign to stop the construction of a mosque at the 9-11 ground zero site. In 2015, Ms. Geller proposed a drawing contest of cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammad, which is forbidding in Islam. This subsequently led to calls for Ms. Geller’s beheading. In 2017, David Wright, a Massachusetts man, was sentenced to 28 years in prison for plotting to behead Geller, whom the Islamic State militant group (ISIS) had urged its global support base to kill.
“EU Declares Fossil Fuel To Be ‘Green’ Energy As ‘Climate Change’ Narrative Self-Destructs”
The “climate change narrative” — aka reality — hasn’t self-destructed. Europe’s energy trade with Russia has self-destructed, in the wake of their invasion of Ukraine.
As a result, EU countries are going to have to speed up their transition away from petroleum-burning vehicles and over to electric vehicles, which will entail rapidly increasing electricity generation.
They aren’t going to be able to do that fast enough using only renewables, so they will also have to make the painful compromise of keeping (American-imported) natural gas-powered generators running and also turn their nuclear generators back on.
Those energy sources haven’t become any greener than they were yesterday. But Europe is just going to have to suck it up and live with them for a little longer in order to keep their lights on. Apparently, pretending those energy sources are green, legally speaking, is the way they are handling that.
Elon Musk is trying to pull out of buying Twitter.
If he succeeds, that’s good news for everyone who doesn’t want Twitter to be filled with even more bigotry and bullshit than it is already.

“EU Declares Fossil Fuel To Be ‘Green’ Energy As ‘Climate Change’ Narrative Self-Destructs”
Note that Germany is also turning their coal-burning power plants back on. This is not because Germans suddenly decided that coal is fine and climate change isn’t real. They don’t want to do it, but have no choice because Russia has screwed them.
Frankly, they should never have trusted Russia in the first place. That was a big mistake.
Germany to reactivate coal power plants as Russia curbs gas flow
Also, note that this is a temporary measure. As soon as the Germans have built enough generating plants using other forms of energy, they’ll undoubtedly shut down the coal plants again.

Germany is also turning their coal-burning power plants back on. This is not because Germans suddenly decided that coal is fine and climate change isn’t real.
This is because Germans are idiots and won't turn their nuclear plants back on.
All the good ones left.
“This is because Germans are idiots and won't turn their nuclear plants back on.”
They will very likely be doing that. You’d know that if you’d read your own dumb article. The point of which was that the EU are legally classifying natural gas and nuclear as “green” and going back to using them (although it falsely claims they are doing it because of some kind of admission that global warming isn’t real, rather than because of desperation in the face of an energy shortage caused by Europe-Russia hostilities.)
“All the good ones left.”
The good ones? You mean the ones with the red armbands and the funny salutes? Yeah, they didn’t leave. We killed them. Because they deserved it.
Another day another magat child molester.

Hey anon. Here's the real info, so why don't you get off your Chicago bull shit? Your comments are boring and totally one-sided.
According to Gun Violence Statistics - Team ENOUGHhttps://www.teamenough.org › gun-violence-statistics
Every day, on average, 316 people in America are shot in murders, assaults, suicides and suicide attempts, unintentional shootings, and police intervention."
It is now a crime in Arizona to record a thug in police uniform committing murder. Only surprise is it took them this long to think of this.
Your user name is too apt. It's only illegal to approach within 8 feet. Do you think cell phone cameras only have an 8-foot range? "Ignoramus" is definitely what you are.
Actually, in Arizona it is illegal to film within 8 feet of pigs doing their daily criminal acts.
Civil rights and media groups opposed the measure that Republican Gov. Doug Ducey signed Thursday. The law makes it illegal in Arizona to knowingly video police officers 8 feet or closer without an officer's permission.
Trump is throwing a temper tantrum over the possibility he might not get his Twitter account back, because Elon no longer wants to buy the social media site.

“Your user name is too apt. It's only illegal to approach within 8 feet. Do you think cell phone cameras only have an 8-foot range?”
Do you think cops aren’t smart enough to stay within eight feet while beating the shit out of you?
Actually, it will be quite hard for them NOT to be within the eight-feet limit while beating the shit out of you, unless they have really long arms.

More pablum. Solar and wind cannot replace fossil fuels or nukes with current technology. delusion.
The exception to the 8 foot rule is if you are being engaged by the pig and choose to video tape your encounter, then you can clearly get closer.
Harris beating DeSata nist in 2024 is a fantasy only in alternative fact universe. In reality it is very likely.
"The exception to the 8 foot rule is if you are being engaged by the pig and choose to video tape your encounter, then you can clearly get closer."
Ah, I see. Well then, at least it's not a completely insane law, then.
Not sure why it's a necessary law, however. It seems like it does nothing useful, since police are generally already able to push bystanders back in order to execute their duties, and to charge them with some sort of obstruction-related offense if they refuse.
So, basically, this is a pointless stunt meant to suck up to law-and-order voters.
What Amendment gives you the right to record police?
First Amendment right
The First, Third, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth, and Eleventh Circuits, covering a diverse array of states, including California, Florida, Illinois, and Texas, have all held that filming police is a “clearly established” First Amendment right.Nov 2, 2021
Every ciruit court of appEALS THAT HAVE HEARD THIS CASE ALL agree you have that right. Plus there is no expectation of privacy in public so if you are out and about anyone can take your photo, in a public setting, without your permission.
Once again, Putin has targetted civilians by bombing another apartment building in Ukraine. Killing at least 15 civilians today.
Maybe you call for a timeout for a measurement and a referee will come running out with an 8 foot chain you think? Inyeranus is definitely what you are.
“What Amendment gives you the right to record police?”
Well, clearly this law isn’t really meant to block the recording of police anyway. If bystanders are only required to be 8 feet back, and there is an exception for the people the police are detaining, then that’s more than adequate for anyone to do whatever recording is needed.
This is intended as a “stay out of my way, bystanders” law. Meaning they don’t want bystanders to have any excuse to get too close, for fear they may interfere with the police trying to make an arrest.
However, the police don’t actually need a new law to do this. Their existing powers undoubtedly already give them the right to push bystanders back to a safe distance.
Do you think cops aren’t smart enough to stay within eight feet while beating the shit out of you?
Fool, the law excepts the objects of police intervention.
'Every day, on average, 316 people in America are shot in murders, assaults, suicides and suicide attempts, unintentional shootings, and police intervention"
We should treat this like the healthcare crisis it is and bring in all of our resources to stop this. Have a roundtable with all stakeholders: the CDC, the NRA, the ATF, concerned citizens, the AMA.......
