If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Gregory T. Monahan, Acting chief has a history of covering for his Officers even when they're arrested by REAL cops. So there's no surprise here--he's going to say whatever he can to acquit his Officers even though every single account by reporters and protestors say differently--HIS officers beat up the Aussie crew.

To get further off topic since I love talking Hawaii—anyone ever been to Molokai or Lanai? Going to Kalaupapa was one of the most moving places I have ever been. Like Gettysburg, you can feel the souls of those that died there.
Never been to Lanai, but hopefully someone in here has and can post some thoughts.Comment

The NPS statement said there were 53 USPP police treated over the weekend for injuries with 11 taken to hospitais and 3 admitted. To me, that’s evidence that the protest at that particular location were not ‘peaceful’ as claimed in here unless you think the officers were admitted for hurt feelings.
As for the Georgia comment, it refers to you saying that Georgia opening up their state first would lead to a scene from the walking dead, which 7 weeks later it obviously hasn’t. Since you were kind enough to point out how naive and in denial I am, I thought the least I could do is point out how you aren’t as clairvoyant as you seem to think you are.Comment

Can't really blame you. I've only been the one time for my honeymoon 9 years ago and am itching to get back at some point. My kids would not handle a 12-hour flight very well and my wife doesn't want to leave them for how long I would want to go to Hawaii for, so it will be some time before I can go back.Comment

Not disputing the list, just giving my opinion here, but I think Biden unnecessarily boxed himself in by saying it had to be a woman. Given the state of the angst in the country, I think the best pick would have been Corey Booker. I’m not a fan legislatively of his, but he is relentlessly positive and upbeat and I think a lot of low information voters (who likely will decide the election) would be drawn in by that positive personality of his. Kind of like a Democratic version of Reagan.
Obviously that’s not going to happen so, as I said 10 minutes after the Charlamagne interview—it will be Harris IMO
and upbeat. I think thatComment

Police aggression starts at 25 minutes. Don't be a bootlicker.
By now, everyone reading this is aware that on Monday night President Trump committed a grotesque and unconstitutional abuse of power: To show that he was “reclaiming the territory” around the White House, our channel-surfing faux-strongman had law enforcement officers use gas, rubber pellets, batons, and smoke grenades to violently disrupt a peaceful protest just north of Lafayette Square—before curfew—under orders of Attorney General William Barr.
After the inevitable blowback from this action on “the shows,” the Trump administration and its propagandists—both in the public and private sectors—began test-driving some alternative facts about the events of Monday evening. Maybe the U.S. Park Police acted on its own out of self-defense, they suggested. Maybe its officers didn’t use tear gas, they suggested. Maybe this was all one big coincidence.
In short, they think you are fucking stupid.

Which means that we have hours of video footage and multiple on-the-record accounts on one side against a vague claim—with no supporting testimony or documentation—from a government bureaucrat with an alleged history of lying.
No reasonable person could look at the timeline, the video and photographic evidence, and the testimony and conclude that law enforcement cleared the area because the protest turned violent.
Anyone trying to further that story is either willfully uninformed or arguing in bad faith.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.
