Police aren’t just abusive and racist tools of the carceral state….
Turns out they’re also really bad at preventing and solving crime.
Every result would be porn or a scam. Or both.
That's like taking someone saying "it would be good if people ate more vegetables" and responding "so clearly you think everyone should be on an all plant diet all the time!" It's nonsense.
Of course it’s nonsense. It’s also exactly what the GOP did earlier this year.
Nonsense is their brand.
Now, we are told by a new high-priesthood, that what for the vast sweep of human history would have been an unexceptional view -- that biological sex is an important reality, and that segregating latrines, prisons and athletic competitions on its basis is a benefit to women -- is "bigotry"So you’re upset because you’re being criticized for opinions that people used to let slide. You’re upset because other people are publicly challenging your opinions, and you’d always assumed that your opinion is the natural default and it’s everyone else—not you—who has to face criticism. Well welcome to the world. Calling someone a bigot is not censorship, and no one is obligated to find your opinion worthy of debate or discussion.

The deputy was brought in to teach those girls an important lesson about bullying:
If you’re a cop you can get paid to do it.
And I take exception to the use of "snowflake" in the headline. It's become the left's version of "n-word" when speaking of anyone white.Don’t be ridiculous. Everyone knows the proper term for stupid white dudes is “Mayonnaise Boy”.
The punitive damages are also supported by the fact that the statist and stoic philosophy and ideology and Keynesian economics promulgated by the Defendant as earnestly implemented by the US governance, education and other institutions since 1930 has led to tremendous economic losses.
Georgalis v. Zeno, et al.
When I first read the proposal, my instinct was that it was just the random brain fart of some natsec advisor who doesn't understand how telecom works or the mammoth influence companies like AT&T have over such policy
Knowing this Administration, my first thought was that the advisor has a significant financial stake in a company that would get a contract to build this out.
- “Hey, boss, this hole’s getting pretty deep. Think we maybe should call it a day?”
- “Nah, keep digging! We must be getting close!”
Trump's New Rural Broadband Executive Order Doesn't Actually Do Much Of Anything
In a way, that’s a relief.
Be reasonable, now. Those tax giveaways to Amazon won't pay for themselves.
Meds can be very helpful and good. I suggest you try them.
That. But they aren't throttling, no no, it's just giving priority to "better" services. It's for the consumers well being!We just need to understand that Comcast has its own special, improved dictionary.
aw... You're no fun anymore.
You're a disingenuous jackass.

When you only decry the few failures, and never celebrate the many successes and heroes of the police, you sound like a supremacist. When you condemn a whole class of people, how are you preaching something different than what Hitler was preaching? Same same, right? A whole class should be condemned, without exception. That's just nasty, right? Kind of the definition of bigotry and hatred, right?This is an extremely bad analogy. It's so goddamned awful - both illogical and immoral - that I don't even know where to begin. But I'll try. Choosing not to celebrate police who do their jobs properly is NOT bigotry. Police officer is a JOB, not a vulnerable class of people.
There are heroic police, just as there were heroic Jews that were publicly condemned for no good reason.This is depraved. Six million Jews were murdered by the Nazi state. And you're comparing them to police facing public criticism.
don't know, but I would guess that this officer is human, too. Maybe there is more to the story than is brought out in the article. Maybe he had some personal challenges in his life, just like all of us do. Maybe he deserves some consideration as a human, some compassion and understanding that we would give ourselves when we make a mistake, maybe even the benefit of the doubt, because of the difficult nature of his job.This officer got "the benefit of the doubt", repeatedly, from his superiors, even when it was plainly obvious his staying on the police force was a danger to the community. Five car accidents, multiple internal affairs recommendations, and only now, at last, he might face some consequences, after he did this to an innocent 60-year-old man:
Deshommes had to have his spleen removed and suffered from a skull fracture, a traumatic brain injury, a broken left arm, a broken back, several broken ribs and a broken pelvisYou don't want "understanding" for this officer. You want impunity, simply because he's police. No.
Yet people still ask victims…
“Why didn’t you leave him?”
“Why didn’t you get a restraining order?”
“Why didn’t you call the cops?”
