The police were more than reasonable in approaching him. I wouldn't want to die while overdosing on fentanyl and probably simultaneously having your respiratory system collapse while hyperventilating, brought on by a panic attack due to the police converging on you, for whatever he did which caused the initial basis for the arrest.

The police officer who put his knee on his neck was using a police restraint procedure legal in the state of Minnesota. Apparently taught to them by Israelis.

I'm not sure if it was determined how much force was used on his neck. It was conclusively determining that he was overdosing on fentanyl.

Young Black men are 3.25% of the American population, and commit more murder than ALL other racial demographic groups in the USA combined. So they get arrested more as a result.

YOU DON'T SAY? HOW CAN THAT POSSIBLY BE???

Ultimately, George Floyd was just a token used to initiate protests complaining about nothing. It's nice to see that happen in Minnesota, after arrogant Northern state Democrats spent decades complaining about "racism" in the Deep South.

In addition to being in a motor vehicle with an overdose level of fentanyl in his system, George Floyd pointed a loaded gun at the stomach of a pregnant Black woman, after invading her home.

Yet this guy is somehow a hero of the left. Meanwhile, White 5-year-old boy Cannon Hinnant is shot in the head by a 25-year-old Black man, and the left says nothing.

FYI, the White right has almost all the guns in th USA. Frankly, I would LOVE to see the American left push things just a LITTLE bit further. They will find out REALLY FAST who the real boss is in the country.

Not the monster ones, but I do admit to approaching the small to medium ones on really innocuous seeming subjects with interest, to see just how he will manage to crowbar in a wicked tangent into one of his diatribes about:

Women
Gays
COVID
Leftists
Jews
Black people
Edit: missed immigration/refugees off the list first time

I have also enjoyed his recent and very belligerent attempts to revive what appears to be a 12 year old 'beef' with Mr Zimbabwe  ;D

So yeah, I suppose I'm a bit of a Matt fan

So you guys read 1% of my posts?

So...100 words? That's great news.

One thing I find online is this:

Any time I have metrics measuring views and page clicks, etc, they are pretty good. I.e., my bodybuilding website had 30,000 visitors a day at it's peak, my YouTube channels had 220 million views combined before I began closing them down, etc.

The weirdest was when I would be out and about [pre-COVID], after just writing a huge Facebook post, and I'd bump into a friend, and he'd be like "I just read your post." I'd be like:

1. Uhh...
2. I just posted it 30 minutes ago!
3. It was 2,000 words. How the f*ck did you read it all?! LOL.

Yet people consistently told me that over the years. It was very weird.

Oh...and in perhaps the grandest act of irony, I sort of phase out when reading long posts, lol.

It does depend on things though - if the person is a good writer, if they generally stay on topic, or if they are a good enough writer to hold my attention should they deviate from the topic at hand!

As I've said and keep saying - I type REALLY FAST. Roughly 120wpm, error adjusted. So within no time, I've churned out a book.

For example, this post seems "small" to me.

Holy fuck.

And that's a small post that took me under four minutes to type in this POS Wal-Mart smartphone.

Honestly, I just type fast. I talk fast too - I need to talk at half speed to be talking fast. My son said I should be a rapper.

Honestly, I type fast, talk fast, move fast. Not sure where it stems from, but I just do things quickly in general.

PS - since posting on a tiny smartphone STILL hasn't reduced my post size, I'm going to start posting one-handed. If they doesn't work, I will start posting one-handed with my left hand! THAT should work!

Cole's Notes on these:

- With women, I'm ruined. I just can't fathom ever regaining trust at this point, after being lied to so much. Not related to my experiences, but we ALL expect the people we have sex with to disclose any sexual infections, right? And if our sexual partners consistently lie...are we to demand STI screenings every 30 days? Again, THAT wasn't my issue with women, but it's the same format - when trust breaks down, what lengths do we go to restore it? Are those lengths practical? Are they worth it? I have an expectation not to be lied to. I simply don't feel I can attain that 100% of the time. To the Getbiggers with girlfriends and wives: bless your souls. I will not be joining you.

- With gays, the battle has been won. What are they still complaining about? Being called or implied to be homophobic for merely stating that male-to-male anal sex is a huge HIV risk factor... whatever. I apologize for stating facts on sexual disease spread, and raising awareness about safe sexual practices.

- COVID. My data is on-point. Any questions, feel free to ask. I've been analyzing Covid-19 for five months now, almost daily. I would say I know this topic quite well, if anyone is interested in discussing it. The lock-down and curfew here in Ontario is a drag! Gyms remain closed, and tenants don't legally have to pay their landlords.

- Leftists/Jews. I find most leftist ideas don't work in practice, and now we have full cities and states failing because of leftist policies. Jews...long topic, but in general: they have disproportionate influence globally.

- Black people / refugees. They have disproportionate crime rates. All the "Blame Whitey" excuses as to why they are arrested more or fail more are bunk. Their results are a direct consequence of their behaviour. Also, different races have different average IQ's, susceptibility to disease, and more. Anyone denying the reality of race in 2020 is an unscientific moron.

Wow, that's 90% of my posts right there.  :o

For a year I’ve been trying to get Matt to shorten his posts.

Never thought of using a poll.

This may be the first “300 - 0” unanimous poll in the history of Getbig.

What is worse, long posts or extremely short posts using bad grammar, usually calling someone an idiot or praising one's self, how rich and successful they are?
I would argue the second is way worse.

Depends on the topic, i find some of his posts to be fairly accurate.

The really long ones, no i don't have that much time and i read slow.

I think Matt means well, but is very hyper active, often getting way too carried away.

He's one of those people who "has to be right", and that is a bit annoying.

However, his stance on African Americans, refugees and liberal policy is pretty spot on. ;D

Thank you.  ;D

I do think I'm pretty good at tracking down primary sources and just stating objective facts, point blank, without regard to "offending" anyone with reality.

So what's the solution here?

Would a 100 word post limit appropriate?

I love Getbig, and I don't want to muck things up around here.

I'm fully on board with doing what needs to be done so that my posts are more suitable to be here.

Since you have no problem backing up your strength claims with fairdinkum video, would it be too much to ask you to film yourself typing at 120 words per minute. I’m calling #shenanigans,,, liar,,, filt

You know what?  It wasn't until a few months ago that I even noticed him and bothered to read the first few sentences of any posts he made.   Don't ask how I have been here this long and he never showed up on my radar.  But suddenly I started to notice them and it was like "damn this dude is long winded and full of shit."  Other than being Canadian, and a weirdo about babies, I can't tell you anything about him.

Wish I could go back to happier times when he was invisible.  LOL.

If he kept it shorter, he would find more people would read his shit and interact instead of the automatic spin the mouse scroll wheel like you are on the Price Is Right and spinning the big wheel.
