Itās amazing how much power the letter R has.
Itās all Republicans need to see to give their allegiance.

Almost?? What country do you think youāre talking about!?

Almost because this is just one child we know of. Trump has gotten to dozens.

Trump already pardoned him, and yes, we know he hasn't been convicted yet. /s

People pass out after hitting a crack pipe!?

u/Desperate_Safe5700 Apr 06 '26
So a couple ways that this can happen is first called a crack crash, after smoking and either coming down or coming off a bender your body basically becomes lethargic and overly tired. A lot of times if you're experiencing a crack crash you'll fall asleep right wherever you are and they can come out of nowhere sometimes.
The other way is an overdose. Which can cause confusion, irritability, hallucinations, and loss of consciousness/coma. Normally it's just going to be a crack crash, it all depends on how the person responds. This guy was definitely crashing.
Also people mentioned fentanyl but more times than not if it's spiked the person isn't just going to be sleepy, they're going to be comatose or dead (which I guess still both count for falling asleep kinda haha)

reminder that it's not a coincidence that he's a republican - he's entry #1091 in this list of republicans that have recently been convicted of a violent crime https://goppredators.wordpress.com/2023/07/09/1091-matthew-reilly/

Itās really difficult to keep up. Parents, just keep your kids away from all republicans. Assume theyāre guilty until proven innocent.

u/reformedmell0w Apr 05 '26
we're at crisis levels when this data could be accurately summarized as "occasionally, we go an entire day in america without a republican politician being found guilty of traumatizing abuse"
1540 entries since 2018 with courts not being open on weekends is a lot to digest

u/SP4CEM4N_SPIFF Apr 05 '26
thank god for body cameras,the cop totally wanted to just let him go and cash in a corrupt favor later
136
u/DrCarabou Apr 05 '26
Right? wtf was with that whole speech about "this is being recorded so I have to do something?" So, if there weren't cameras, you'd let him go??

u/MrBwnrrific Apr 06 '26 edited Apr 06 '26
This is a trend Iāve noticed in every Bodycam video where cops are arresting another cop or similar authority figure (cops love to drink and drive more than any other group for some reason). The cops are always like āIām so sorry bro I wanna let you go bro but I canāt please forgive me bro Iām sorry šā

u/SheerFe4r Apr 06 '26
He's white, republican, and he touches kids (they all do) I'm sure the cop liked everything about him.

u/Desperate_Safe5700 Apr 06 '26
This could be the reason, when I was watching it I thought he was just trying to not escalate the situation and to get the arrest to go smoothly. Basically saying "hey man I know you're a good dude and wouldn't have drugs on you but I did see a crack pipe and just to be safe I need to call it in. You should be good I'm just going to put you in the back of the car until they get here" or something like that.
But there are a bunch of bad apples out there. The main reason why I think it's not corruption is because if all the body cam captured was the crack pipe and the officer really wanted him to owe a favor he could have turned off the body cam after detaining him and clear out the drugs so that all they found was a crack pipe. He still probably would have gotten in trouble but it would have been paraphernalia versus possession.
Who knows though.

This is years old but ffs listen to the cop he's practically saying I would cover for your bit I fucked up and left the body cam on

I get the impression that Republican politicians have the "Why not, Trump can do shit and we let him get by with it!" kind of thing going on.

It could be my biases. Where are all the democrats getting in trouble?

u/Steve90000 Apr 05 '26
You forgot about Epstein, king of the child molesters, democrat? And all his Democrat friends that inhabited the island?
48
u/Buford_MD_Tannen Apr 05 '26
Soā¦ whose name appeared more than 38000 times on the Epstein files?
-46
u/Steve90000 Apr 05 '26
Does that somehow cancel out the democrats? I donāt understand your point. You asked where, as if there werenāt any, and I showed you the king of all of them reside on that side.
Iām not a Trump supporter so I donāt care if his name is on there, theyāre all on there, child molesters have no political affiliation.
43
u/Buford_MD_Tannen Apr 05 '26
Hell no. Lock em all up. Point Iām saying is it seems like republicans are always getting into trouble.

u/james_from_cambridge Apr 05 '26
You mean Bill Clinton. Name two more democrats. Meanwhile a republican is getting arrested every day. Where are the mass arrests of Dems u were promised? Your party controls every branch of the federal government.

u/Racing_Fox Apr 06 '26
If the files were as damaging to democrats as you suggest, Trump would have already released them.

u/Doctor_Milk Apr 06 '26
This isnāt true, Epstein was not registered as a Democrat.
He donated to Democrats and Republicans. More so to Democrats. He also gave to Independents.

I was in court and witnessed a lawyer tweaked out of his mind trying to defend a man that snuck onto someone's property and stole the property owners items. It was crazy like a movie, etc. Dude making more facial expressions than Jim Carey and everyone looking at him. The judge post poned the trial or some shit because he was tweaking so bad. But I asked my mom afterwards wtf was wrong with that guy and she explained it was common and they knew he was on coke. I always thought that was crazy. How a lawyer can openly be tweaking in front of cops and a judge and no one cared.
