sanpipita:Yes blacks have been extra judicially murdered by police for ages and are labelled drug addicts, but George Floyd's case has one major difference. The murder was captured live on TV. The "he died of drug overdose" narrative would not fly. Even If he was overdosed, it would be difficult to prove that Chauvin knee on his neck did not contribute to his death. |
sanpipita:Facts don't matter to Nairaland right wing loonies. Even If Derick Chauvin confesses to killing George Floyd deliberately, they would still say he was forced to lie by leftists or misquoted by CNN. Derrick chauvin's knee was on Floyd's neck for over 9 minutes, but they see his knee on his shoulder, back and every other place except the neck, even though the video is clear and taken live. Floyd died there on the spot before the arrival of fire fighters, as testified to by the actual fire fighters on the scene, but Trump's crazy loonies from their imagination says he died on the way to hospital. All medical and forensic experts that testified so far says Floyd died as a result of Chauvin's knee on his neck, but loonies say he just happens to die of drug overdose. So you think the actual pathologist that carried out the autopsy can change their mind? US right wing conservatives have become synonymous with looniness. |
DissTroy:Look up the meaning of islamophobia, racism and xenophobia, it has nothing to do with ignoring or excusing. It has to do with actually taking actions that is harmful or detrimental based on hatred or prejudices. Trump banned Muslims not based on ignoring them or excuses but actual prejudices. Ignoring like Trump did is even the lesser wrongdoing than excusing the ill-treatment of Muslim Ughurs just as Biden did.Trump did not care about Muslim Ughurs or any other muslims. I don't think any US President would enter into a diplomatic spat with China because of minority Muslims. Muslims generally do not like the US or Americans for that matter. I wonder why the right has suddenly become obsessed with Muslim Ughurs, you did not talk of Myanmar's Rhohingya, who had been suffering actual genocide since 2016, you are ignoring the Saudi Monarchy who murder it's own citizens both home and abroad, you are even oblivious to the killings and murder of Christians and southerners by government backed Fulani militia right in your backyard, but you are so obsessed with a place you cannot even pronounce properly or locate on a map. See what needless pettiness and mudslinging do to you lots?I just decided to debate you to see if you more reasonable than most right wing Trump supporters here. I avoid most like a plague. |
basilico:What is an audit meant to achieve? Flip Georgia's electoral college votes to Trump and therefore declare Trump the winner of the 2020 elections? Maybe all the state's should be audited and not just a select few. I would also like to see the 2016 elections audited. Who knows, it might show that Hillary Clinton actually won the elections and so we can unswear Trump and swear in Hillary instead. |
DissTroy:With all the problems facing the US - economic, pandemic, trade war with China, broken relationship with her traditional allies, etc, you want Biden to concentrate on China's treatment of the Muslim Ughurs? You expect the Biden to expend energy on Muslim Ughurs when predominant Muslim states in the same continent are not even talking about it. Where is Saudi Arabia, where is Pakistan, where is Indonesia, Turkey Nko? They are all still in bed with China. If anything is to be done for Muslim Ughurs, the Muslim dominated countries are the one to take the initiative, the US can only support. Why did you not ask Trump about the Ughurs, he hardly mentioned them. |
MickzyDonald:Na de preek to preek dey interest you and not the abandoned baby. Why not give a thought to the abandoned baby? |
peacekante:E surprise me too o. Buhari that came back into Abuja yesterday is the person that they say leaves for Saudi Arabia. |
MASTAkiLLAh:Why will everything not be faulty, when the Nigerian military budget for brand new equipments and spare parts but the procurement officers end up buying tokumbo hardware and spare parts. Most probably the ejection system was not even installed. |
temmym4:Most Nigerians have been taught (I will rather say brainwashed) by the so called men of God that is lack of having material things like expensive cars, cloths, house, money, etc. And then equate poverty to a curse from God. This is further from the truth. There is so much abundant resources in the world, especially in Africa that with the right mindset and education, we can generate more than enough wealth for the continent. What we needed to survive and live was all around us, we did not need to go anywhere to search for them. Africans didn't know they were poor until the Europeans taught them about poverty. Now read about Jose Mujica, the so called poorest president in the world. He will disagree with you if you label him poor. He drives a 1978 Beetle car, lives in a tiny house, but he believes he has all the wealth he needs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGufxyfe868 He was offered $1million for his beetle car by and Arab sheik and have not accepted yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqhCAORmsaE Now according to you and your Men Of God, is he cursed for driving a Beetle? Until we change our poverty mindset, Nigeria will forever remain in poverty |
JahBwoy:Is that so? Now does this apply to only edo, ijebu or Nigerian people or it also apply to all other humans on the planets, including Europeans, Chinese, Japanese? Then if you understand the spiritual so much and how it works, how come you do not eat spiritual food to survive, use spiritual energy to charge your phone or even communicate with spiritual network instead of MTN? |
payloader:False premise resulting in false conclusions. Psychological reactions manifests in physical responses. That's what the whole discipline of psychological tries to study and deal with. Psychological decreases are as damaging as physical diseases. Hormonal changes leads to lots psychological responses which in turn can lead serious physical problems, ie puberty, pregnancy, menopause, etc. |
SweetiliciousD:Agent of what? FBI, CIA or agent of SHIELD? Another superstitious religious fanatic. Are you a guy to understand how guys feel and react to hormonal impulses? Ask your boyfriend or if you don't have a boyfriend, your brothers if their rods don't get solid hard between the wee hours of 4 - 6 am most mornings, whether they are thinking of sex or not. |
payloader:More Bullshit. Normal psychological and physiological response. If as a young man you are not sexually active and you do not have wet dreams, see a doctor. |
SweetiliciousD:Bullshit. It is very normal and happens to most guys in the age bracket - 17 to 30 who are not sexually active. My own experience was worse during my jambite days. It got to a point I was wetting 2 to 3 times a day. Sometimes I would just dose off a few mins and gbam my pant is wet with sperm. I didn't even have to think of women not to talk of sex. I got so worried that I travelled from school to lagos just to see my doctor then, who was a junior brother to my friend. When I told him about my problem, he just laughed and said get a girlfriend. Mind you he was a very religious man (Muslim). |
grossintel:I doff my heart to you. I appreciate few Nigerians left that are very principled, and not denominate everything to money. I have said the whole issue is not about the money but the principle of taking what does does not belong to you and using religion to justify it. Since it seems the mother admit that they did wrong (unlike lots of people here who tries to use "miracle blessing" to justify their spending the money), you should just collect the remaining amount and move on. Also don't put the blame on your girlfriend as she too was very embarrassed by the situation. My only problem is how will the girl's family survive when when the food they bought with the money finishes? Will they die or pray for another miracle alert? African youths need to the taught how to add value to themselves and become wealth creators instead of searching for non existent paper qualification employments or pray for "ala anu" (philanthropists) in order to survive. |
JesusDWay:You still don't get it. It's not necessarily about the money, but about the dishonesty and mistrust. I will feel that I cannot forget anything at their house. You people always present Christianity and Christians as a religion built on dishonesty and lies. It is wrong to covet things that is not yours. This is a motto I hammer on my children. |
EndRape2:You are an endrape activist and at the same time you are advising a girl to "get the money from any source". Is that not a paradox? Will her finding the money from any source not make her vulnerable to rape? Or at best sexual exploitation. If her and her whole family cannot raise N100k, what make you think the girl can find N100k from any source? I am not annoyed that the girl and her family is poor, what I am pissed about is the entitlement mentality of her family. They should have at least return what's left of the money and then plead for time to return the remaining. If they had returned at least N50k and promised to return the rest later, I am sure the guy would have cooled down. I don't really want to blame the girl because at least she is embarrassed by her folks actions and she is not showing entitlement mentality. If you are to continue the relationship the guy must make it clear that he will not be responsible for her folks and her whole family, after all he too has his own family. He will be only be responsible for her and their children. If she wants to cater for her own family, she should get a job. |
Iseddy:Another one of them that uses God to defend their criminal behaviour. The real God (and not the Nigerian God) does not answer prayers by asking you to steal or cheat. They did not apologise and have not said how they would refund the money. People make mistakes all the time. The guy might has well forgotten the money in the parents house. The fact that they did not know who owns the money does not give them the right to spend it. |
Sixfeetbelle:Integrity? Which integrity. The girls family lacks any atom of integrity. The guy better run for his life. The family wants to chop someone else's sweat and you are talking about integrity. If her family has any integrity, they should find a way of paying back the money instead of listening to useless excuses from people without conscience. As for the guy, he has to talk to the bank, who will now reach out to me and ask me to return the money and I will accept to return it when I can. The much the bank can do is to block my account, nothing else.False. The bank can sue you for theft and you will go to jail. I know of someone that is still in jail for spending N1.5 million that was mistakingly credited to his account. He was a jobless man with 4 sickle cell kids and pleas of desperation did not sway the judge. Read a similar story here - https://www.pulse.ng/news/metro/man-in-jail-for-spending-n2-million-accidentally-sent-to-him/hhn0q8j.amp The guy can report to the police station and the parents can be arrested and charged to court. |
Queenttoast01:Bad idea. They will increase the bride price by N100,000 during negotiations, as bride price is not fixed by according to how rich they think you are. They might even ask for much more if they think that the N100k means nothing to you. |
Godsown0:To me it goes beyond the N100k. It goes to the very heart of the type of family you are about to enter. How will you go to their family house and ask for their daughters hand, knowing how shameless they are. I can never respect such a family. I will use that to judge the type of upbringing my intending wife had. It will make me think she had been pretending to be a decent girl all along and would unleash her real self once I say "I do". |
grossintel:The concept of honesty has is strange in Nigeria. They only understand the concept of unmerrited wealth, blessing alerts and instant riches. A similar issue happened to me some three weeks back. A customer went to a paga agent to transfer N5,000. The paga agent mistakenly wired N50,000. A few hours later my customer in a frantic call asked me to transfer N45,000 back. I asked for the bank details, and transferred the N45,000 back. I can never imagine coveting money or any other material thing that is not mine. |
Cornpop:Courts are there to either interprete the law or the the constitution. If a law is made and signed by an executive, if the courts feels the law is against the constitution, it can annul the law. Courts base their judgements on arguments and evidence provided and not on public news or propaganda. Let the issue pass through the judicial system all the way to the Supreme Court. |
ARANGEE! like everything else in Nigeria, including big brother naija. Imagine the baby that won was one sitting behind a C bechstein piano that cost over $200,000. It shows the baby is from very wealthy family. Poor man pikin wey actually need the money no fit win. I doubt the baby would even use cussons products. |
Dapcity007:Why should this apply only to Fulton country? Should signatures in all counties in America including those won by Trump also not be verified? In fact should all over 150 million votes cast in the last elections not be verified - in person, mail in or absentee votes? new elections with strictly in person voting will expose one of us as a fraud till then , I won't make any optimistic comment about the futureSo you guys want strictly in person voting; of all close to 150 million voters; in this 21st century and in a pandemic. You guys just want to reduce US elections to INEC's level. The only other things you guys need is ballot snatching, violence at polling stations and changing figures after the votes. Voting is a fundamental right after the voting rights act, you can't disenfranchise a person because he does not have an ID, even in Nigeria. In the era of IT, you can stop or detect a person that did multiple voting by simple biometrics (assuming that's the concern of Republicans). |
basilico:From evidence so far, it seems the attack was not a terrorist attack by Islamic terrorist, a MAGA supporter going after Democratic lawmakers or even a black lives matter supporter after police. It's simply a mentally sick mad man overwhelmed by conspiracy theories and maybe drugs. With the crazy conspiracies being peddled by far right conservatives here on nairaland, I would not be surprised if some of them carry out such crazy attacks on liberals or abortion clinics. |
Cornpop:You must have comprehension issues. Where in the article you posted that the murder was referred to as double homicide because the pregnant woman was murdered? Re read the story to understand why it was referred to as double homicide. A woman is facing federal gun trafficking charges after her illegal firearm was used in a botched home invasion on Staten Island that led to the death of an expectant mother and her boyfriend. |
Kokobilo87:You are so informed that Trump is president and Biden retired to his basement. Now tell me if these are news or opinions to millions of Trump's followers including those that attacked the Capitol on January 6th; Ukraine not Russia interfered in the 2016 US elections. Hunter Biden commited fraud in Ukraine with Burisma as an accomplice. Joe Biden covered up for his son fraud in Ukraine by forcing the resignation of the prosecutor looking into the case. Hunter Biden's laptop somehow got into Rudy Gulianni's hands and it contained evidence of fraud I. Ukraine and pedophilia against him. Joe Biden has dementia and took steroids to debate with Trump during the Presidential Debates. The 2020 presidential elections was rigged by the Dominion software but the Senate and House elections was free and fair. Trump won the 2020 elections but the democrats rigged it in favour of Biden, most especially in swing states most of which were controlled by Republicans legislatures and has Republican secretaries of states. All the courts in the US all the way to the Supreme Court are compromised. That's why Trump lost over 60 court cases despite presenting overwhelming evidence. Do the millions of Trump supporters who watch Fox and Friends and Hannity know that the programs are just opinion shows as you put it or they are news? Did Powel, Gulianni and other Trump lawyers tell the courts that they were presenting their case based on opinions or on facts (news) when they accused Dominion of rigging the elections in favour of Biden? |
Kokobilo87:Read the defence presented by Fox lawyers - https://mobile.twitter.com/mike_hixenbaugh/status/1321831924588027904?lang=en

basilico:The second amendment was promulgated when the most deadly weapon at the hands of the US Army were the Gatling I and Gatling II machine gun and the Hale rocket launcher. Compare that with today's General Purpose Machine Gun GPMG or the Apache attack helicopter, and we are not even talking about B-52s yet. Can militias acquire GPMG or Apache helicopters? |
Kokobilo87:What he is saying is that AR-15s and other automatic weapons are useless against the US military. It can only be used by civilians to kill each other, in mass killings or in militia wars. The weaponry, training and tactics at the disposal of the US military is not something any civilian militia can withstand. Just watch how the US Marines took out Al-Bagdadi and you will have a glimpse of the awesome power of the US military. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBfVFoJMDdQ The militia that carried weapons more deadly than AR-15 to confront the US military were killed like flies. |
PrideofLincoln1:And you think the likes of basilico, Ono, benalvino2, dapcity/bloodysperm or any of his numerous monikers, sexylassie, loyalhusler, etc that had been shouting Kraken up and down are reasonable? To me anyone that takes then serious and continues arguing with them is not reasonable. |
