Notable Quotes “Say What?!”
Encouraging people to shoot police officers apparently earns you a spot as a headliner at the Superbowl. If you choose to watch the game at all (we won’t be), halftime is a great moment to shut your TV off in honor of those men and women in blue who gave their lives for us. - From an Instagram post by the Suffolk County PBA, which included the lyrics of a song by one of the rappers that performed at the Super Bowl that refers to black people in a derogatory way and calls on them to shoot police officers

This is a slap in the face to everyone who has ever worn the uniform and put their lives on the line for the safety of others and is an example that Instagram enables, if not encourages, harm against police officers. They should be ashamed. - Lou Civello, vice president of the Suffolk County PBA, after Instagram removed the above post because they “don’t allow content that may lead to a genuine risk to physical harm or direct threat to public safety”
- Bill Maher, HBO

Because Chinese are Asians, and Asians are not white. So, if you criticize them, it’s racism. That’s — I mean, that’s really where we are with the level of thinking with a lot of people in the country. - Ibid.
Yesterday, as I hope you know, was Super Bowl Sunday, also known as — a.k.a. “Cryptocurrency Awareness Day.” — Jimmy Kimmel
It’s all crypto now. Even the halftime show, bloods versus the cryptos. — Ibid.
