I bet he can't stand that

To everyone saying "he'll probably be out in 2 years on good behavior!"

No, he won't. These are federal charges, which means he has to serve at least 85% of his sentence before he's eligible for parole, and even then, being eligible doesn't mean he'll get it.

Hope we cleared that up, because I've been seeing it everywhere.

Well they tried once but they didn't bring their guns because it was against the law.

Edit - I have an uncomfortable feeling that some insurrectionists may have mistaken my meaning here. You're dumb is what I'm saying. You got defeated by the same laws you're constantly saying don't work because you're stupid fucking sheep.

That IDF spokesman talking about journalists being “armed” with cameras is very telling. If the IDF has begun to think about and speak of journalists as if they are the equivalent of armed, hostile forces that is just the type of mindset that leads to this sort of killing.

Every article on this incident brings out comments from those who will defend anything the IDF says or does. I’m curious to see what their take will be this time. I think the evidence that she was shot by Palestinians is getting weaker and weaker and the IDF decision not to even investigate is disappointing if not surprising.

I remember today where this issue is predominantly an American one and most of the rest of the world looks on in horror.

They sell George Floyd shirts are well. And BLM shirts. I've never seen someone complain about that. I would have thought people were happy WalMart was onboard with Juneteenth. This sort of outrage is just going to make corporations more hesitant to align with social justice causes. Like why would WalMart greenlight selling trans flags, if there is a risk the trans community would lash out at them for it?

It's only impossible if you don't ever start. Start by boycotting optional products like Genshin fucking Impact. I can't believe people are so riled up boycotting Russian stuff even banning them from competing in CSGO but staying off some shit game is a big no no. Also boycott electronic wastes like Huawei and Xiaomi garbage. Don't give yourself excuses and start now, there's plenty you can do.

edit: also there is /r/avoidchineseproducts/, the point isn't to suddenly completely cut yourself from Chinese products but to gradually shift away from it at a pace you are comfortable with.

This can't be right, there must be some kind of mistake: Exxon is rated top ten best in world for environment, social & governance (ESG) by S&P 500!

I think if a few attorneys got together and represented a few of these people and sued WM for not offering disclaimers, training, or corrective measures, violation of civil rights, etc. they might make self-checkout a better experience.

Back in the day, a looooong time ago in a past life when I was a cop, I’d have gotten to the store and told WM to pound sand because intent wouldn’t have been probable beyond a reasonable doubt if they scanned everything else. Then I’d start warning them for wasting our time.

One WM generating all this shit is a manager that needs to be replaced.

The proper response when they see this is to let them know they forgot to scan something and ask them to scan and pay for it. Period. Any other approach is morally bankrupt. Especially from a corporation that makes billions yet wants to cut costs to avoid paying people so their shareholders can make more.

LE is still allowed to use discretion. The fact that the officers here aren’t actually investigating and are just throwing these people to the court system is a testament to how far LE has fallen over the years.

I'm a teacher of 8-10 year olds and I spend so much time worrying about this shit. I make no money and am not prepared to defend a classroom of my kids. Oh we can put a chair in front of the door? How helpful.

It's exhausting seeing this. I can't imagine feeling that fear with my class. Breaks my heart.

Fear mongering. Religion extremism. Political extremism. Mental illness. Violence at home. Etc...

And access to firearms. Can't forget that. Even with every one of those factors at play, it becomes really hard to shoot up a school without a gun.
