7. Ditto!

Ted Cruz is toast and I couldn't be happier.

While we're on this important subject, equal helpings of thanks to our valiant men and women in uniform, current and retired, and our countrymen who engage in non-violent protest to seek redress of the grave injustices which occur every day.

One of my favorite rappers, L.L. Cool J., summarized the question of mass shootings being underreported in neighborhoods of color in his brilliant 2000 song Homocide:

"I don't mean this in a disrespectful way
But Columbine happens in the ghetto every day
When the shit goes down y'all ain't got nothing to say"

It's a moving work of art. Listen here

8. Lots of people sleep on Mr. Smith's skills.

Great song. I hope you're right about Ted's impending defeat. Thanks for the video!

6. Very good answer

Great tactic contrasting the "frustration" of some seeing the players peacefully taking a knee with the frustration of seeing unarmed people getting shot. Now, what is worse?
