The point isn't that the two stances are in direct abstract contradiction, but that they are in obvious practical contradiction, because there's no world in which there are no criminals, or where, absent police, vigilantes aren't widespread. — PolitiTweet.org

Wow so the same people who think police shouldn’t murder people also think citizens shouldn’t murder people??????? https://t.co/KqWk7AnWc4

@davidamann I think the not guilty verdict was narrowly correct, but that a great many imprudent acts that harmed innocents went unpunished, including riots and property destruction and a minor carrying a gun into the madness — PolitiTweet.org

I think those of us who lived through the 1992 riots and aftermath had a better intuitive sense of how this would all play out than younger people. — PolitiTweet.org

We would also have to believe that the white people who were killed that night were out "fighting for Black lives," or at least that the jurors understood them as such. Which seems unlikely, to say the least. — PolitiTweet.org

More people are living well than at any time in human history. Good to keep in mind if feelings of inchoate ennui or lack of spiritual fulfillment or anger at injustice tempt you to tear down the whole world order instead of continuing to reap exponential gains. — PolitiTweet.org

@ElGranCAQuetzal @naninizhoni @conunlibro @MsMightyPen @pithypacky @MainStreetMuse @GlennMorin10 @ijbailey @Noahpinion @mattyglesias None of us Americans, regardless of race or ethnicity, were given a choice to be born into a multicultural, global world. That's just the reality of the world we arrived in. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@DavidLewis61 @ijbailey @Noahpinion @mattyglesias I haven't tried at all to argue that this isn't part of America. Of course it is. The question is whether slavery, more than anything else, is the defining element of the American experiment. I say no. Others disagree. But obv, slavery is a hugely important historical reality — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @Noahpinion @mattyglesias No, I have never claimed they "meant it literally." That has never been what was at issue. They published a provocative take about the true symbolic founding, then erased it and obfuscated rather than defending it. — PolitiTweet.org
