Everyone is welcome. Unfortunately, some people require a higher level of psychological safety than we are able to provide. We aren’t in the business of babysitting or bubble wrapping people’s experience. If that means they find other forums more appealing, that is perfectly valid for them.
He will read this and be offended.

It’s interesting to watch the meltdowns over the years. You can see the wheels coming off the wagon from a mile away. Some of us just sit back and enjoy watching it unfold and then there’s those who have a sledgehammer hastening the crash. Personally, I ultimately hated watching the Dannnnn crashes that you could see coming and UD’s aren’t shaping up much differently.

If the 5 or 6 minutes of footage showing Rodney King assaulting the officers and initiating the confrontation in the first place had been shown instead of the beatdown at the very end of the video, 1992 may have been vastly different. Same with George Floyd in 2020. I watched that whole video, and the police were doing handstands and bending over backwards to accommodate that moron. But only the last portion of the film made it to the news.
I wonder.....could the news be biased, perhaps?
Rodney King was a POS that did untold damage to America. George Floyd was the same. Both were weaponized by the Democrat Party to help divide our nation. It worked and is working wonderfully.

Some say that the Rodney king episode was the reason that OJ was not found guilty.

I watched a recent interview of a juror who stated that 90% of the jury had decided on him being innocent because of the King fiasco. They saw it as payback. It appeared to be genuine to me.

It was, no question. It was jury nullification, just as Trump will be CONVICTED, despite not being guilty of anything. Nullification.

Are you kidding me...If I were Doug ...I would not demand a thing...he left here on bad terms due to his own doing not anyone else. The fine folks here just handed him the truth on a silver platter and Doug did not like that truth. Doug's whole thing is he tries to make his internet life seam like he has the world by the horns and is in complete control of his future ....I am here to say Nay Nay

Or triggers him. Can you imagine the months of therapy that would be needed if he happened upon this scene?

Only Doug knows if he ever really wanted to come back here or not, but looking at his list of demands, I think it was more of him joking than anything

He's a walking / talking joke. Everything he does is a joke.

I don't think so. Ask his Bronco or his garage door if he was joking.
