Btw hold these ive hit my limit

man was convicted of tax fraud and insurance fraud while politicking

First time reddit didn't go rabid over a white collar criminal. I guess we should listen to corrupt former politicians now.

father

Whenever I see this word I think of "farter" instead. Maybe because my dad farted a lot.

The phrase "identity politics" is such a red flag. I've only ever seen it used to brush away the lived experience of an individuals.

"Lived experience" is one of those terms that let you know the individual using it needs to be stripped of all civil rights.

Any black cop is a coon, been watching late 80's early 90's episodes of cops and all the black officers give off big coon energy, there was an episode where a coon was roughing up a brotha and he turns and looks at the white officer for affirmation.

I hate cops, but I hate the black ones more.

I agree, we should get rid of all the black cops

"Convicted Felon and Former Federal Inmate Virus Jones Dislikes Police"

Wouldn't he have all the more valid a point to dislike the police if he'd seen how they treat people?

If you don't trust prisons to reform people, then why do you trust them to be used as punishment at all? Doesn't that specifically throw a wrench into the entire criminal justice system if our one and only answer to crime, by your own standards, doesn't work? Wouldn't that mean we, y'know, need reform?

Nice sophistry. He got sent to federal prison because he committed tax fraud in order to fund a dark horse candidate to sap votes from a political rival. "Reform" just means, "changed to my preferred outcome." If I was reforming the justice system, Virvus would still be in prison.

First off, nice misuse of the term sophistry, especially when you went back on it to wind up agreeing with me in the first place. So, yeah, you don't actually believe in the penal system. You don't think he's been reformed, and don't think he is safe to have back on the streets given his power and influence. So my question here is this, do you think a longer sentence would actually reform him, or does he simply need to be held in indemnity until he dies? Is that really a fair way for justice to happen, in which individuals are sequestered away from society until they pass away, or should we refocus out legislation on fixing our prisons to act more in the interest of reform and correction, reeducation if you will, and ensure that they can be used more sparingly by fixing societal issues that would've otherwise led to them in the first place, like poverty, homelessness, and education, to create a system of assistance rather than policing? You call me a sophist, yet, I don't actually see any point in which I deceived you, only that I made a valid point you didn't like.

Gay but funny argument. Honestly it is funny when people who seem liberal dont think former criminals can reform

And the Mayor’s spokesperson throws daddy under the bus… “I would hope the Post-Dispatch has more interesting news to cover than what a 76-year-old senior citizen posts online,” Desideri said in the statement

I wouldn't say that this is throwing him under the bus. I think it's appropriate. He's not harming anybody, and he's a 76 year old man with an opinion. He's not hired on in any capacity and the mayor doesn't bear responsibility for what her father says, so why is "76 year old man has an opinion" news? Would "Old person who isn't employed by the government and has no real authority tweets something transphobic" be news? Probably not

The mayor's leaked texts show that her father is very much involved with the day-to-day of STL politics. https://www.riverfronttimes.com/stlouis/st-louis-mayor-tishaura-jones-snarkiest-texts-that-she-doesnt-want-you-to-read/Slideshow/40408407/40408482 She can't have it both ways.

I’ve read the article and texts; he never tells her how to vote and the extent of their conversations are shit talking other alder people. That’s what people usually do with their family
