if an ice agent or two ends up "passing away" from an "officer-involved shooting", i might have to say something nice about the police unfortunately and i always love interporcine violence
comment in response to post
i really don't want your city's police department to make me start putting asterisks in "acab"
comment in response to post
would chicago pd actually be willing to put handcuffs on ICE agents? lol that would be (unfortunately for the cops) so fucking based

i like that you casually reveal more insane skills to me every time we talk on here but i shouldn't be surprised you can do this thing in particular
comment in response to post
i hate that this practice still exists in any industry, given how easily gamed it is. there's subreddits where people offer to serve as references!

some republican lawmaker in congress introduced legislation a few months ago to make good friday an official holiday and man, i don't care if i'm an atheist, i'd like that day off

it's true according to the fact checkers

i like trivia so if i were a senator i would simply not be caught lacking like this. i would say "genesis 12:3" after saying some stupid shit about blessing israel and saying that's from the bible i would know iran's population and ethnic composition so fucking hard man

It's just very obvious at this point that establishing a separate body outside of the DOJ was a mistake, and as legally structured, it relies entirely upon an executive who won't unilaterally abuse it to functionally do whatever they want. Gotta get rid of it.

saying dumb voters should be threatened with sexual assault because they wanna vote for a sexual harasser is bad
comment in response to post
not since i learned that they were willing to elect bloomberg as mayor. i need everyone else to get with the program
comment in response to post
yeah it's really fucking bad. i kinda wish Midwestern dems were in charge of the party because they actually get shit done but the money's not with them i guess. idk

comment in response to post
picking up california and new york by the scruff of the neck and shaking them around like ragdolls till they get better politics.

even tho my ribs were aching from sleeping that much, i did get back to 100% after sleeping for like 19 hours straight after being awake for a few hours. bodies are weird
comment in response to post
i've been put under anesthetic and the sleep i experienced that night was about as close to death/being put under anesthetic as one could feel i imagine lol
comment in response to post
i had something like that once and it was really really weird because i felt a somewhat rapid onset over like, maybe 3 hours and it felt terrible. felt like shit. used nyquil to fall asleep at like 11:30 pm, then slept until like 6:30 pm the next day. it felt like i arose from the dead
comment in response to post
damn man sorry to hear that. hopefully you feel a lot better now. stomach bug?
comment in response to post
agreed. and let's not even get into traffic law enforcement lmao
comment in response to post
like it's clear that there's no linear correlation between beat cop presence and crime deterrence but increased resources for detective work might actually do something positive to get the clearance rates up--in the "right" way
comment in response to post
i have actually also read this somewhere. there was a period of time in the 2010s where academics were like, seriously studying how fucked up law enforcement was from the fairly interesting perspective of its poor organization
comment in response to post
i think i read somewhere that the lack of mental stimulation is kind of a big reason why college grads have high attrition rates w/police departments. and i mean it kinda makes sense. if i were a cop, i'd hate sitting in my car all day being a useless asshole to the public that (rightfully) hates me
comment in response to post
minimal training and a job environment that is actually pretty mentally unstimulating but encourages violent confrontations attracts freaks unfortunately
