OT: American Politics

Let's talk percentages /actuaries...

If one in a hundred people are maliciously violent or insane that means there are approx 78 million seriously deranged people in the world (I think the percentage is higher personally). How is it you had no idea that there were many of these people in the world? As population increases, so does the number of nutsos.

that’s one of the challenges in America. The scale is incredible. For ex, Poverty rates aren’t much higher than in Canada (12 pct vs 8 pct). But there’s a huge fuckin difference between 2.5m and 40m.

Clearly because some of us don't know what the **** you're talking about either.

I've made a pretty simple fucking point. The looting, burning, and pillaging is an unacceptable and intolerable response to the murder. The animals that are doing it have de facto declared open war on the city by being out after the mandated curfew and going store to store stealing and burning shit down. If they get hurt while being apprehended, they fully deserve it. And I never did the fucking math, but I thought there were fewer than thousands upon thousands of criminals ready and willing on a dime to destroy each city, beat up innocents, steal and burn, while cops are patrolling the streets and while they're being recorded by people passing by and news crews on the ground and in the air.

make sure you explain this concept to Altair the next time he crawls out from under his rock
 
He's referring to a discussion in the past that you may not be aware of. Inside joke type of stuff.

Where were you during Rodney King? He wasn't even killed and it ignited suppressed frustrations.

It doesn't fucking matter. There isn't anything that a cop can do to you that makes it okay for you to come burn down my business and steal my possessions.
