Join the party , plenty of room for one more .Is there room in this thread for being scared and distressed by widespead civil unrest, and terrified by the demonstration of the power of police forces that have militarized for the last 20 years? Or do I have to pick a side.
Because holy shit.
And that's really saying something@HereticBD looking weaker than ever.
As far as I'm aware, journalists have always been attacked by both police and protesters in these situations. So I don't see it as anything new.It's been interesting to see police and protesters shit-kicking journalists so regularly. There are so many stories of journalists getting pepper-sprayed, pushed around, shot at with rubber bullets, arrested; shits crazy. What's most interesting is how little non-journalists seem to care about it, for the most part.
Does anyone know, did the media catch it like this during the LA riots? What about in the race riots in the 1960s?
I have a theory that this is partly a function of people disliking and mistrusting the media, but I'm leery of confirmation bias.

Black blunders into a forced mate in 2 with 15. ...Nxa1. White misses it, plays the very nice 20. bxc5, but then messes up the attack and drops all his material.

Anyone listening to any music right now? If so post it and share for us to gather the sensations of your cortex.
lol
Even after the King went to the a file, just taking the Knight is still crushing I think. The pawns on the Kingside are beasts and the bishop is coming in like a sex criminal.
I can see why he missed it; it's not easy to see over the board.
