"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
I don't have any comment on the linked story...it's SOP for the government these days.
But, I did notice another story link in the sidebar about the 'Justified' sequel that I hadn't heard about. Sounds disappointing, and something I will pass on so as not to taint the experience of the original show. Don't know why they thought they could do it again better.
If there aren't 'No Comment' bumper stickers with Joe sporting that repulsive leer across the US by the middle of next year, you've wasted a golden opportunity.
$700 is just a slap in the face of people who overwhelmingly voted Democrat in the last few elections. The Biden maladministration hates everyone, friends and foe alike.
As for the Justified sequel, I have never been so disappointed in a TV show. The original Justified was great, and I looked forward to a sequel but I should have been warned when they decided to set it in Detroit. Givens is a shrunk-down, scrawny old man who decides to sleep with a fat, unattractive black attorney who hangs out with criminals because they were her friends from the 'hood. The main villain (a white man, of course) likes to sit around flaunting his tighty-whities, and I think he stuffs a sock in them. The black characters never miss a chance to talk about all the grievances of the black community going back a few centuries, and every one of them so far is compromised in some way. Also, so far, there don't seem to be any good guys in this story. If you haven't seen it, I wouldn't bother, as I won't be from now on.
I was attending my first semester of college in Detroit when that human disaster, Coleman Young, was first elected mayor. He presided over the final stage of Detroit's decline and fall, and, in spite of being incompetent and divisive, he was reelected several times, "serving" as mayor for 20 years. I don't suppose he came in for any criticism from the black characters in the new Justified series? No, I didn't think so.

I've heard a couple of negative things about the Justified reboot, too, and have decided to pass on it - for now, at least.

ReplyDeleteI like Gregoryno6's idea.

Definitely a hard pass.
