All of it? That's about 41,000 hours. Have you come back from the future to report to us what you saw?

I saw the guy who got 4 years in prison actually getting a civilized, peaceful, guided tour by Capitol Police throughout the inside of the building, opening locked doors to different rooms for him to view with their keys.

I saw him thanking them for their assistance before he left. He did nothing wrong.

Why was this footage (evidence) suppressed? Why did he get jail?

No, you didn't watch 41,000 hours of video footage, you watched carefully edited segments that removed all violent acts by the mob.

It's the other way around.

There were very few rioters there that day, but that's all the media showed.

They didn't show the majority doing nothing wrong.

They didn't show the Capitol Police opening locked doors and giving them a civilized guided tour through the chambers inside (including that guy who got 4 years in jail).

How did you feel about your government hiding information from you? How can you say that's right?

Okay, so why did you post that <deleted>  then?

Honestly, the people in charge now do seem to hate their own country and seem to be revelling in degeneracy.

Trump sending 'bat signal' for violence with posts 'straight out of Nazi Germany'

Not only does this sound ridiculous, I couldn't find the part about Nazi Germany.

What did he say?

So Tucker is your go to source of facts is he?

 

Fox News won a court case by 'persuasively' arguing that no 'reasonable viewer' takes Tucker Carlson seriously!

 

Fox Wins McDougal Case, Argues No One Takes Tucker Carlson Seriously (businessinsider.com)

I saw the CCTV footage with my own eyes. Lol. 

Question: will drinking Gatorade Zero (sugar) stop autophagy?

It just has minerals in it, I think

I cannot remember when US media did not identify the race and deliberately write "a black man" . It is not a modern or fashionable occurrence. 

It's certainly coming more in fashion, particularly with the media narrative of police treating black people worse than whites, allegedly

The obvious needs to be supported by information, if there is no information the the obvious is based on blind assumptions.

Then, the only other assumption is that it was unjustified and due to a supposed racist police force and racist justice system.

I think you'd like to believe that.

That's certainly the narrative of the media and the motive behind mentioning skin color in this article (which I think is irrelevant).

22 hours ago, Purdey said:

Why do newspapers have to stress the color of the family? Do they write "a yellow family was arrested"  

Because they write what fits their sick agenda and the narrative of the moment.

The media likes to brainwash people. It could be to hate men, or hate whites, or feel sympathy for blacks, or queers, or women.

Right now, black is the flavor of the times and they're pushing the narrative of the police treating blacks unfairly. They'll spin any article they can that way.

what are your thoughts on the parents carrying weed and a gun with their 5 children ? 

While I do consider myself a conservative gentleman and would never have either of those items in the car, I can't see much wrong with it.

Weed is legal in many countries - just like alcohol and cigarettes - so therefor unless you are driving under-the-influence, what's the problem?

As for the gun: aren't guns legal in the US? What's the problem? Everyone else has guns, so you probably should too (for self defense).

Like you rightly say, we are short of a few facts.

 

Which hasn’t stopped you inventing some to fit your world view.

He's just stating the obvious: nobody loses their kids of such a small thing.

You should be banned from driving.

Why?

90 is the limit according to the signage

Maybe I should be banned for doing 100 sometimes when there's a yo-yo up my backside flashing his highbeam at me

No, almost a year means from last March, in English.

But the rule was first introduced on the Asian Highway in March 2021........TWO YEARS AGO.

Tell me which roads you have been driving on because from Phitsanulok to Bangkok and on to Pattaya, many lengths of road are designated as such. I personally have only driven these roads, so any other members who can inform Mr 2009 where there are other such speed limits, please do so. Thanks.

"Almost a year" is a matter of months, by definition ????

I've driven north to south regularly for the last 10 years.

I'll let you know when I see a 120 sign, okey-dokey?

19 minutes ago, KannikaP said:

Been like that for almost a year that I know of, 100 MINIMUM/120 MAX in right lane.

Almost a year?

So, just a few months then.

Well, I haven't seen any signs saying 120 yet.

If the allowable rh lane speed is 120 with min 100 kph then either comply or get out of the way dont be selfish and dangerous

Since when? Is that a recent change in speed limit? And on which roads? Got any proof to back up your claim (the Aseannow favorite ????)

I see the road signs indicating 90kmh as max speed wherever I drive. I always do max speed, usually a tad over, in fact.

Irrespective if they are driving at a 120 it is the law that you must return back to the left hand lane as soon as you've overtaken. You're as bad as the woman in this story.

 

 

If you think I am as bad as the woman in this story, I won't tell you what I do to the tailgaters driving an inch from my bumper. ????

I've never driven on such a road in Thailand. Since when was the speed limit 120kmh?

The only roads I've ever driven on are max 90kmh.

I do 100kmh to try to appease the psycho need-for-speed coconuts.

It's also the law not to drive above the speed limit, so we are at a stalemate there. Lol

And the left lane is typically full of vehicles doing 0-50km/hr so it makes it pretty impossible to actually drive in it.

And moving in and out continuously is pretty much out of the question since Thais don't let other drivers change lanes anyway.

They tailgate and give 110% effort to stop anyone changing lanes in front of them.

The solution is to sit at the max speed limit and cruise in the right lane.
