Correction: Morocco isn't out of the World Cup. They play Croatia for third place on Saturday at 7 am.

There's still some hope for them to be the first African & Arab team to be in the top 3.

Also that photo is nothing but gorgeous talented Black and North African men playing their hearts out.

Ed Troyer was so obviously guilty. Anne Bremner is apparently a good attorney, but also a piece of shit. Fuck those two. And the jury.

@6 Ha! "Cop instincts." Whatever. Troyer's toxic now. No way his career survives this. Time to retire to Idaho with the other disgraced cops, Ed.

10

@9. Cool. And when he pulls 8% in the primary, will he THEN move to Idaho?

11

So now we know what snakes do with those forked tongues.

junior Governor in Idaho

they'll make a Great team

@9 hahaha

Christ you never change, Trollflake.

And when this stupid statement gets brought up after Troyer is destroyed in an election outside your little MAGA bubble of delusional dipshits you’ll come up some fantastic revisions and excuses as usual.

I retired last year at 54 after having worked a job that paid somewhere between $150,000 and $200,00 a year for 11 years. I worked a lot before that too. Parts of that job over the years and at this point all of it are there for someone willing to work 80 hours a week and probably more than that. It's there for the taking. It's manual labor. It's work. My guess is Kritofarian will have some excuse to not want it. This is your big chance to get out of your mothers basement. You'd have to work hard. It's a great opportunity. My guess is you'll still blame it on the man to have to actually get out of your mothers basement. You'd have to work and be responsible. And it's shovel work and some ladder work ...... manual labor.

"You'd have to work hard. It's a great opportunity. My guess is you'll still blame it on the man ..."

Troyer, like most cops, is a pissy drama queen, and his fellow pissy drama queens from different jurisdictions responded to the call, which is abandoning their job.

They need to change the way they recruit cops and stop hiring self-important bores with victim complexes and itchy trigger fingers.

As everybody knows, I could care less about soccer.

But Morocco became my "favorite sports team" this month, not just for the way they play, but for the moral example they set for the rest of the world.
. First they beat Portugal, team from a country that colonized them centuries and centuries ago.
. Next they beat Spain, team from the country that took over Morocco's colonization when Spain beat Portugal in some insignificant war that nobody remembers.
. Third, Morocco had a chance to beat France, team from the third country that colonized them, from which Morocco threw off the chains of colonization as recently as the period following World War Two.

Fight on Morocco. Show the rest of us how it's done.

Pissy drama queens are in every profession, @Catalina, and if a prissy drama queen is found innocent by a jury of his peers in a court of law - that's no reason pout like a pissy drama queen.

23

Raindrop dear, you are a true conservative - always projecting your fragile emotions onto others.

I'm not pouting, I'm shaking my head at how you people are A-OK with wasting taxpayer money if it furthers your law enforcement fetish.

25

@23: You're right. You're not a PDQ, but Bob Ferguson certainly is Pissy Limelime Queen - desperately wanting to be interviewed again on Rachel Maddow.

27

Making Troyer's actions sound reasonable requires not mentioning the part where he said the newspaper carrier threatened to kill him. That wasn't the late hour and low light playing tricks on his ears, was it? That was just some irresponsible bullshit to get some armed people to his house to maybe end up murdering an unarmed person with zero harmful intent. Power should not be held in such shaky hands.

@3 Brent Gumbo: Um....you're being sarcastic again, right?

@6, @9, @14, and @29: You're awfully cheerful, lately, Herr-Boob. Did you run over a small child or something?

@17 kristofarian, @18 Catalina Vel-DuRay, and @27 Dale Horseman for the WIN!!

@32: Oops! Oy vey, the typos! Make that @5 Brent Gumbo. Griz needs more red wine.
