That’s what Aaron Hernandez the killer football player for the Pats smoked regularly.

"grappling with life's mysteries"

Barf! He spent his final minutes stealing cigars and assaulting a shop owner.

“What a shame. If it weren’t for that cop he’d have finished his thesis on Unified Field Theory and we’d all be riding in flying cars by now.”

I’m surprised that auto-correct didn’t catch your typo there. You didn’t include the word “white” which is a required modifier of the noun “cop” whenever discussing this case.

Perhaps you should write “unarmed black teen shot by a white cop” 100 times as penance. Never mind, in the time it took me to write this the MSM already has.

NYT has gone crazier than usual.

I skimmed the article. I think the Slimes dusted off the farcical spin template Tom Wolfe used in "Bonfire of the Vanities".

Too many cliches from misrepresented half-truths to wade through: "Used his size to avoid confrontation", going to HVAC technical college, and was an aspiring rapper.

But, he was a good boy. I like how the NYT primarily uses his friend’s account of the incident to paint the picture of what happened. I hope those liberal jackoffs in New York rot in hell

I agree with that. There are a lot of directions to come at this from, and yours was a good point. I heartily agree.

His last Skittle was gnawed on to resemble the image of Jesus Christ.

Don’t know anything about the author of this piece. (What happens at the NYT?)

Read it out loud. See how ridiculous it sounds.

And that should have been a clue.

Even those brain dead isolated bubble liberals from Manhattan can’t believe stuff like that.

Or the inanity of the entire article.

Oh, texted a picture of the sky...how touching.

50sDad, I totally agree.

Some people’s ideas of how to punish their children are downright idiotic.

Who cares who owns the console, if they both can play?

Seriously!

“Who you going to believe them or your lying eyes”?

It may be beginning again, but such horsehockey is SOP for the holders peoples culture. They have no shame, They have no integrity, they have no morals, they have no pride and are satisfied with whatever crumbs the dems rake off the table.

If they are white they won’t get caught because the cops are so busy picking the fly poop out of the black kids’ pepper.
