Kyle Rittenhouse trial
"If more than one of them were engaged in arson, rioting, looting, I'm not going to tell the defense you can't call them that," the judge said.
Guilt by association much, Judge Bruce Schroeder?
George Carlin on Andrew Dice Clay
The thing that I find unusual ... his targets are underdogs, and comedy traditionally has picked on people in power, people who abuse their power
women and gays and immigrants are kind of to my way of thinking underdogs
and you know, he ought be careful because he's Jewish and a lot of the people who want to pick on these kinds of groups, the Jews are on this list, a little further, you've got women, gays, gypsies ... suddenly you find Jews ...
I think his core audience are young white males who are threatened by these groups, I mean a lot of these guys aren't sure of their manhood, because that's a problem when you're going through adolescence, Am I really, am I could I be, I hope I'm not, but I am, and women who assert themselves and are competent are a threat to these men and so are immigrants in terms of jobs ...
I think that's what is at the core of that experience that takes place in these arenas, there's a certain, a sharing of anger and rage at these targets
