Those calls came after numerous media outlets reported potentially identifying biographical information about the woman, including her job and the neighborhood she called home. Fox News Jesse Watters highlighted the juror’s details while reading through public pool notes about the selected members. “This nurse scares me if I’m Trump,” Watters said.

      Fat Tony without even a fraction of hesitation. It’s actually difficult for me to think of many people, real or fictional, I’d choose Trump over. I’d rather have Skeletor.

      I mean, Fat Tony actually cares for his people. If everyone were his people, he might actually be a real good guy…

              but its not. a lot if criminals ive met were good people. none of the politicians ive met (mostly house and state level) didn’t immediately trip every single alarm in my head.

                Yakuza is fiction. The characters are not realistic. No I don’t think criminals are constant evil or some other binary view of a human being. Though unlike the games I don’t know each of them individually like I do the yakuza protagonists.

                  well, as someone who’s met a good handful of politicians and lots of criminals? the criminals are usually better people, never, so far, worse ones. yes I’m including meth head Nazis, in and out if congress, in this.

                    I’m not really sure what this conversation is. I just thought saying you would rather an Yakuza protagonist was just an obvious better choice since the way they are written. I wasn’t trying to start a conversation about “criminals” in real life.

      Shut your God damn month. If I’ve learned anything from Trump it is ‘ask and you shall revieve.’
