    Hmmm....I was remarking how the current situation was reminding me of Strange Days just a day or two ago on here.

    Now Jeriko One has his own autonomous zone?

    That’s a nascar hat Glenn, all it signifies is the man enjoys watching hours on end of cars driving in a circle and turning left. I’m a bit sad you didn’t pick up on that after all the time you spent in Texas.

    Interestingly a quick google search shows its for Bubba Wallace who will be driving a car in BLM livery.

    If you google 43, you also get it's a symbol of a rather nasty group. So I can't obviously decide which it is.

    More shenanigans planned for Friday in Seattle as BLM calls for a general strike.

    https://www.newsbreak.com/washington...-strike-friday

    "SEATTLE, WA — Black Lives Matter Seattle-King County is calling for a statewide general strike Friday to recognize police brutality and racism. Black Lives Matter organizers say they want everyone to use that time away from work to fight for lasting structural changes, improve police accountability and dismantle the institutionalized racism built into many of America's systems."

    I could be wrong, but I don't think we are at the end. In fact, I think we are at the beginning. Of what, exactly, I'm not sure, really. But "Dismantle the institutionalized racism" that's part of "many of America's systems." Guess defund the police is just the beginning.

    What the fuck is happening to my country.

    @Sidheshooter this is near your AO, correct? I saw this on another forum, but can't find an independent source. Is this for real?

    Ok, I read it. In the unlikely event I make it to 2081, Glampers is on the list.
