AI: "based on the giant red watermark that says 'Classified', this document appears to be Classified. Also, how do you meatbags ever manage not to go extinct due to being grossly stupid?"

Hell yeah. We've even got people who voted Trump despite illegal immigrants in their family, or being married to one because: "he's only going to deport the bad ones".

There's also people who themselves came in the same way but eventually did get legal standing/citizenship yet are in full support of what's going on now.

Honest question: what warrant are they operating under? These guys won't even produce ID when asked so I doubt they've got paperwork

Also wondering what happens if there next goon squad is all ventilated.

"Oh yeah, I saw an attempted kidnapping and then somebody shot the kidnappers. Victim and the shooter ran away. Guy was wearing a hoodie. No idea who they were"

Yup. The most familiar use of the term (for me) is a soft bullet that impacts a target, rapidly going from a cylindrical/point to a flattened out mushroom-head.

It's also why soft hunting ammo isn't supposed to be used against humans as it creates cavity wounds that it can't be extracted from like "hard ammo"

Watching their recent coverage of LA and NY I was kinda astounded by the slant on it.

She's not wrong, but also not 100% right. Racism plays a part, but there's also a good helping of "I've got mine" along with a whole lot of money tired into the military-industrial complex

That sounds kinda cool. I'll have to check it out. It's kinda hard sometimes to push FOSS stuff in a largercorporate environment but this looks like something I could recommend/build for small-mid private SOHO clients.

We've had the same thing with politicians in Canada. It's gone from "he's an asshole" to "but he's OUR asshole".

I think congratulation politicians - whether you live them or not - when they do good things is well warranted. Keep in mind that while many couldn't give a shit about you or I, they DO like ego-stroking and attention so positive reinforcement can actually work well.

I think the serial killers just got smart and took official positions where they can do horrible shit with the government's blessing

Honestly I'd rather less of him being f'ed by the bear and more demonstrating how he's fucking the country while calling it patriotism

No, the "well they're both corrupt/bad so fuck it" without acknowledging that bad/corrupt is a scale not a binary is how we got here.
