History note: What people call "the Confederate Flag" is not really the flag of the Confederation.
It is the Battle Flag of the Northern Army of Virginia, i.e. the largest Confederate Army, who were fighting the cause of keeping black people enslaved. Sort of like the Nazis of their day.
And losers.

At least 11 people were killed in a huge gas explosion in central China, state media reported https://cnn.it/2RNaxDA

One cop shoots another cop, then the cops summarily execute the guy they have restrained on the floor, then falsely claim it was the dead guy who fired the first shot even though bystanders were recording:

From Jen Rubin's column...

Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) blasted Republicans on the House floor: “This is a slap in the face to every rank-and-file cop in the United States,” he thundered. "If we’re going to take on China, if we’re going to rebuild the country, if we’re going to reverse climate change, we need two political parties in this country that are both living in reality — and you ain’t one of them.”

Put this in your response quiver when someone tells you they are vaccine-hesitant...

Death After Recovery

You get COVID-19, the symptoms are mild, you get treated at home and recover after a few painful weeks. Phew. Except Washington University researchers have shown that COVID-19 survivors have nearly a 60% higher risk than others of dying in the subsequent six months due to often-ignored long-term complications.

Found the reason the GOP pussies won't get vaccinated...

Male Infertility

It turns out that some men are turning down the COVID-19 vaccine fearing it will leave them infertile. The truth? Yes, taking the vaccine might leave you temporarily less fertile. But that’s because of the fever that sometimes follows vaccination, which — like all fevers — suppresses your ability to produce sperm.

But with so many tiny penises in the mix, one thinks it wouldn't matter...

There is a county, not mine, near me, where every LE officer is white, and belongs to the oldest and still active KKK group, in the PNW. Every single one. From the city police, to the county sheriff officers.

Scary place.
