I'm just baffled on how you can say "no one is being murdered in the streets like you're all making it out to be" and in the same breath also say "They throw gay people off buildings in the middle east". You don't get to complain about someone using emotional hyperbole and then use it yourself.
Black men have a 1 in 1,000 chance of being killed by police in their lifetime. So that's actually 0.1%.Also your list of "being murdered in the streets" is like 0.001% of murders across the country.

I can't pretend to be informed enough about exactly who RBG was or what she did - so I'm probably not as impacted as some other people. I have heard the name though and know she was an icon for many. It's always a sad day when somebody up that high, who impacted so many people, passes away. I think Trump will definitely try his best to nominate the next justice, just as the president before him did.
Who knows if it will be blocked or not. I think it would be fair to wait until the next election is over if they want to play by the rules they set down though. I saw a story where dems said RBG's dying wish was that she wasn't replaced before the next election. Personally, I don't know if that is true or not. It definitely seems like a game that would be played in the political sphere now a days - or maybe that's just the cynic in me.
As a whole, I think there are too many games being played in the political world. It's always more about what they can do for themselves instead of what they can do for the country. If you notice, just about everyone who goes into politics comes out MUCH wealthier than when they went into it. I don't think this is thanks only in part to their salary.
What's my definition of success?
Creating something no one else can
Being brave enough to dream big
Grindin' when you're told to just quit
Giving more when you got nothin' left
