Look, let's just try to strip away all the noise from the last fifteen pages of this debate and break it down into two basic camps.
On one side, you’ve got people who aren't even questioning it—they know the cop totally screwed up, there's absolutely no excuse for how he acted, and honestly, he’s already been arrested so he'll have to answer for it.
Then you have the other camp, where everyone is basically singing in unison about how the officer was just doing her job honorably and didn't provoke anything at all.
I swear, I keep reading that second take over and over again and it actually drives me crazy because I seriously cannot wrap my head around how anyone could hold that position without being a complete troll.🤣🤣😂🤣
It seems like you and restlesssurfer97 are the only ones obsessed with this, bringing it up maybe twenty times in the last five pages alone. Honestly, I think they're just idiots—kind of like that guy we saw over at Evian. But I suppose you can't hold a decent debate without relying on a strawman, can you?
Most of the church establishment and the actual believers follow the rules and act appropriately. It's just that certain idiots don't. And those idiots need to be called out right now, especially given how things stand. Period.
Yeah 🙂
Honestly, it feels like those "objective" sensors of yours might be a little off lately, so maybe give them a quick calibration or something, because look, we all think we're being objective based on our own personal yardsticks, but you can't exactly claim to be objective when you're just measuring everything by your own specific set of rules. 🤣
The headline today was supposed to be about how Americans are actually following the official guidelines and keeping churches empty.
But instead, the news is all about two female journalists getting attacked. We saw the footage from both "attacks," we saw everything with our own eyes. We didn't need to go looking through some newspaper or listen to some radio broadcast. Thanks to technology, we witnessed it ourselves.
Yet, it’s pretty obvious that ideology can be even more powerful than your own eyes. Technology is going to show us plenty more about our own nature eventually. I’m sticking to my guns on this: nowadays, we’re the ones creating the news, and the media is being tailor-made just to fit our specific tastes. Those who don't adapt? They're just fading away.
Anthony Jackson2 said:What are we even arguing about? A bunch of deadbeats claiming she provoked them just by stepping into a church 🤣
No insults, no gestures, nothing. A woman walks into a church and it offends unstable American Catholic liberals so much they resort to physical assault. Talk about living out "Catholic values" on the biggest holiday of the year 🙏
She supposedly went to the church looking for a fight 🤦🤣
We’ve been joking the whole time, didn't you catch the sarcasm?
Obviously, she went there to show everyone how "exemplary" Catholics are, coming in to film an empty church just to provide visual proof for everything she—and you—already think about Catholics. Take care.
🙂
Yeah, a provocation, right? I mean, who would even think of that, like where on earth have you ever seen anyone intentionally provoke Catholics in America 😂

Honestly, any kind of discrimination is just discrimination, period. It actually creeps me out a bit that you're being so intentional about it.
brightpilot6 said:No, I clearly haven't, but since you're clearly an expert from Canada, perhaps you could enlighten me? Please, by all means, I am eagerly awaiting your lecture.
You're straight up discriminating based on where someone lives, so please, just stay classy here.
brightpilot6 said:Look, you and restlesssurfer9 both know she was just fishing for a 🙏
She wants the drama, and honestly, so do all those people taking photos out at Central Park—just a bunch of masochists waiting for a confrontation so Babic can push them even further $67. But they didn't get as lucky as this 🙏
My bad, I just read somewhere in the meantime that she actually wanted to spend Easter with family, so I’ve totally changed my mind. I spoke too soon.
Momo, who’s got six years of grey hair on him, and Žučko, who’s three, had to spend Easter morning without their mama 😢. Just thinking about those two cats sitting alone in an apartment—and I don't mean some safe place, but more like that Brankov apartment where they could just wander right out the window onto the street—it honestly breaks my heart.
Živana is talking about people being desecrated in the church, and I actually saw a few old ladies in her video, so I'm wondering if anyone else has found more footage out there?
brightpilot6 said:They really ought to be filming everything handheld. It would be a fitting way for them to get exactly what they deserve for showing up.
Honestly, if you strip away all the sarcasm from this, you’re basically just going to end up getting likes from Babic and Živana.
Man, look at that stride, just pure confidence, cutting sharp right then left like she owns the place, honestly all you need is the soundtrack from Rocky III and some smoke bombs going off in the background because she absolutely leveled that cathedral 🤣🤣
If I had to take a guess just based on how she looks, I’d say she’s some kind of lesbian feminist 🤣 I mean, I have to be a little bit mean here, you know? 🤣
darkseal9 said:Let me be clear right off the bat—I haven't actually seen the footage of what happened in the church myself.
But seriously, can someone please explain the logic here? How on earth are those 15 or 30 believers supposedly doing more damage to public health than 100 people packed into a shopping mall? I’m genuinely asking!
Hasn't Oli Justin shut down those massive retail hubs yet?
bluebison47 said:So, there was no story happening in a place where self-isolation rules were being blatantly and openly ignored? I mean, if it's not making fools of us—the ones actually following the rules by staying away from bars, cultural hubs, or sports venues—then maybe it's just making a fool out of my grandmother. She’d probably be heading to Easter Mass right now if she could, but, well, life happens, I guess.
Why are believers getting so worked up if they aren't even doing anything wrong or prohibited? We didn't see scenes like this last Easter, for instance, when they'd film hundreds of people outside the Cathedral and other churches all over the country.
If I wanted to be particularly nasty and stir the pot even more, I could compare this to those times when Masses are held specifically for ultra-nationalist thugs, and then, once the media reports on it, everyone suddenly plays the "anti-fascist" card and acts outraged to hide what they actually did. 🙏
Yeah, it's blown up into a much bigger scandal than it really is, but honestly, that journalist still holds the moral high ground in this whole mess.
1. You clearly don't understand what self-isolation actually means. 2. You don't get what a "story" is in this context, specifically when we're talking about pure clickbait journalism.
I honestly still can't wrap my head around the fact that in a country packed with hundreds of thousands of Catholics, the biggest scandal during Easter is just going to be two phones being pulled out next to an empty church in Miami.
I wonder if Duhaček will actually manage to spin this into some massive headline with 738 comments and 423,000 clicks—you know, enough to cover the weekly payroll for the Buzzfeed newsroom and keep up with Babić's monthly growth hormone fix?
