    COP: he plans to rob six banks in 36 hours. We know his list but not the plan-

    Mind your own business man : and they’re all insured? By the FDIC?

    Cop: it’s a crime sir

    Myobm: yeah … Three of these got bailouts in the housing market chrisis and the other three forgiven loans in COVID… All more than what’s about to be stolen …

    Cop: doctor theft plans-

    Myobm: doctor serves them damn right if you ask me. I’m sitting this out. Not my problems.

    I’d talk about taffy if we’re lucky enough to have it. We chewed rubber across the street from the taffy store hoping to catch a wiff of the taffy. If the wind was right you’d almost smell it over the horse manure we had to carry back and forth.

    But you’ve said you’ve grown have you? Let me put my glasses on and take a look at ya. How old you get up to now? 17? When I was your age I was 24 and had to hide from the draft but I know you do the best you can and I don’t hold it against you. Life is softer now a days, you grew up with all your toes I see. We used to have to write our names on our toes in case they got stolen police weren’t now damn good barely got half of them back . … you’re a good boy tho lad. Strapping. Like your Father before he got sloppy and stumbled into all that doctor brain pull crap. Pills making people happy now. If I wanted haUppy I had to go to war and get an arm blown off and you don’t see me complaining.

    Run along now son and tell your mother I need another rooted beer and make it a good one this time. Damn lazy kids. My father never ask twice a day in his life. He asked once then he kill ya and replace ya with a kid that minded better and they call that abuse now. That’s why nothing ever gets done anymore with the construction down the road. Six weeks for pavement and they call it progress. Their lucky. They don’t even… They don’t … damn kids.and their play tubes… Snoring … We stood in line for our kidneys… Snoring. We drank the lead because it was cleaner than the water snoring ya think you have blue… We had real blue back then not this pansy ass… Snoring and they think they’ll send it mars. Good luck with that I’d say if they were worth a damn to listen… HEY DONT CHANGE THE CHANNEL IM STILL WATCHING THAT! damn remotes and they wonder why we have diabetes… Snoring

    Back in my day you used to be able to buy twelve horseshoe crabs for a nickel… Of course that was before the war… Back then id swear at least two and a half teenth of my crew where horse shew crab but who you going to tell ? Tattling wouldn’t be invented for another 2 score years up in Kentucky you had to wait another 6!

    But it’s was easier and I miss those days. If you could dodge the knowledge toads you were already 12 up on these Irish but we can’t say that anymore can we? No sir…now we got to give everything to the freckled folk and act like that’s the way it’s meant to be but it’s not. It wasn’t a thing until the battle of leaky hill… But we lost and I had to accept that to get tomatoes down at the Paul’s service at a decent price. Don’t even get me started about the tomatoes. You never damn believe it.

    Sorry I’m going to be a grandfather soon so I’m practicing



  • That’s a fair and arguable point out were the cultures target with the intent… You know what I hate arguing this point. It’s complicated. Don’t make me argue slavery isn’t genocide please… I don’t… Want to have to defend that argument…

    Not because I feel Im wrong it’s just not how I want to spend my day off

    It’s like explaining “the victim turned 18 at 12:04 so it’s not technically pedophilie and depending on what you consider death to be it might not be necrophilia either”

    I’m not saying I’m wrong I’m just saying I don’t want to argue that technicality in my day off




  • Fair point. I’ll even offer you my main… Question… The slave owners did purposely erase culture and family bonds from the slaves in america… But they weren’t trying to erase their culture from Africa.

    So at first I leen to not technically a genocide but the amounts of people and the purposefully planned way we specifically destroyed their past … Is that genocide? It was purposely done and wide spread… Hundreds of thousands of people… . But only erasing it from them not the world… Is that genocide it was documented as essential for slavery, to break apart all culture and loyalty in slaves and erase their identity entirely… In America… Not their home in Africa. It’s why “African American” is a group but "African British " isn’t. They purposely had their culture removed from them so their culture group is now basically former slaves.

    Is that genocide? I’m not smart enough to say but I see enough to ask l.


  • That’s what I was thinking.

    I’d also like to add it can be a “war crime” and a horrible monster thing being done and still not be a genocide.

    To repeat “not a genocide” doesn’t mean it’s “fine and okay”

    I’m just saying it’s a very specific term.

    If an army js purposefully killing children just to be mean and terrible… That’s awful and should be punished … But that’s also not a genocide. It’s a genocide if the goal and purpose is to eliminate the culture or people from existence.

    A good example is the American slave trade. Obviously terrible and unforgivable but not a genocide. What we did to native Americans was a genocide.
