Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Remember when we were told that this behavior was the ultimate in disrespect?

    He was begging for it the way he was dressed

    Why would George Flloyd put himself in a position to be killed by the cops. His judgment was bad. He didn't need to do that.
    Why did Jacob Blake resist arrest? Except that's actually being said by almost everyone here. And frankly it's not an unfair point.
    I was pointing out the hypocrisy of the tweet about Rand Paul.
    Right, and I'm pointing out the hypocrisy from the other side. Plenty of people who made the above comment about "Blake had it coming" are aghast at people saying Rand is to blame for walking through the crowd.
    This is, quiet literally, one of the single dumbest points I have ever seen on the Tug and this place has @HHusky , @oregonblitzkrieg , and @insinceredawg regularly posting here.

    Its so dumb I initially scrolled right past because I thought you were doing a sarcastic intentionally dumbfuck bit because no one could possibly be that stupid.

    you are better than this

    Your logical fallacy is the False equivalence fallacy. Which is why my my post poignant and what made your post the very thing I mocked.
    Quite the opposite. I hate all anecdotal equivalency arguments. In this example, people decrying the hypocrisy of those who defend Paul but then hold Blake culpable for his actions are dumb. Likewise, people decrying the hypocrisy of those who hold Paul responsible but also oppose the "she-had-it-coming" argument are also dumb. Culpability is not binary. Every one of these examples involves some level of personal responsibility, and none of them are the same. Trying to draw false equivalencies between any of them can be done by both sides and is just dumbshit blabbering by all involved.

    To be fair he was in the middle of overdosing. So he didn't actually put himself in any position.
