8-year-old Jordan Jackson and his younger sister waited for their parents on a playground at Spanish Lake Primary School in Geismar, Louisiana, on November 14. A young white boy came to them and said: “You need to go back to the cotton farm.”
Jordan, who is an honor student and athlete, asked one (who is 13-years-old and son of a teacher) of three white children to stop insulting him and his sister, was pushed down multiple times and body slammed at least twice, suffering a broken arm and a concussion, which has since evolved into post-concussion syndrome.
Cris Colbert, Jordan and J’Niaha Jackson’s uncle, has established a GoFundMe page meant to help offset the cost of Jordan’s ever-growing medical bills.
I’m mad they still haven’t made an evil counterpart for Peach like Wario and Waluigi, so I made Princess Plum. I can imagine a whole Princess Peach game with her as the villain
GOD BLESS UNCLE JOE BIDEN. THE MAN KNOWS SUFFERING.
I’m looking forward to his continued humanitarian efforts. Sometimes they let you do more after the White House, than while you’re in it.
“I don’t think he was trying to be mean, he’s just so completely, thoroughly uninformed”
Hey recognizes that Trump wasn’t trying to purposely attack them, he was just saying stupid shit as always. I mean, I don’t like Trump. At all. Fuck him. But at least the VP has enough respect and common sense to handle his words this way and that says a lot.

My Diary, by Nameless Dead Skeleton 1490. Day 1. Hey gamers, I heard theres a great big treasure in this cave but that damn fucker Al'hrdhrt doesn't feel like sharing. I hope I don't end up being a dead skeleton under a collapsed mine entrance somewhere
So, I’ve been pulled over a few times in my life. Not many, but a few. And I’ve also been in a couple of cars that got pulled over. And let me tell you, if you were actually doing something wrong, the officer doesn’t make any small talk, just straight into “I clocked you doing 70 in a 55.” The only time I’ve ever gotten the “do you know why I pulled you over?” was the time when I wasn’t doing anything wrong, and I got let go even though he insisted to the end that I was doing 87 in a 70 (white privilege at work).
“Do you know why I pulled you over?” is a trap. It means there’s a good chance the officer doesn’t actually have a good reason to ticket you, and is trying to get you to waive your 5th Amendment rights and incriminate yourself. If you make a guess, that’s a confession of guilt.
But there’s another trap, that I’ve heard of but haven’t yet experienced. It’s “do you know how fast you were going?” With that one, they’re hoping you’ll say no, because then they can name whatever speed they want – you just said you didn’t know how fast you were going, if you deny the speed they name then you’re lying to them.
Oh, I’ve had that one. Go with “yes.” Don’t give them a number, just say “Yes.” Then they still have to offer a number and you can deny it without contradicting yourself. They could just ask you, at that point, but that’s suspiciously similar to saying they don’t know, and they tend to avoid doing that.
