From the profession that gave us the Baltimore cops complaining about being "lynched" after they literally killed a dude in the back of their van comes the DC police claiming they were "tortured," oh, what's this, I hear from CNN that I'm supposed to buy this to own the chuds? Ah, yes, this was literally waterboarding for our brave folx in uniform, affirmative, affirmative.

"Violent crime is a real crisis in certain places—harming certain communities—right now," Zaid Jilani writes, but many progressives "are quick to downplay what’s happening in the United States today." "Many on the left feel understandably outraged about police abuses, and worry that using policing as a tool to combat crime will only harm people in the most vulnerable communities," Jilani writes. "But if progressives pay close attention to people in those high-crime communities, they’ll discover that residents generally want both police reform to prevent abuses and more effective policing to tackle crime."

"Chicago recorded 650 murders in 2017. Japan, which has 46 times as many people, had 307 homicides the same year. We’ve simply come to accept a level of violence in this country that much of the rest of the world—from poor, developing countries such as Vietnam to wealthy nations such as the United Kingdom—can’t even imagine. Ignoring that level of human suffering is hardly progressive, and it isn’t hysterical to say so."

lol this country is so terrible

quote:

The probation office assigned Daniel a therapist, Michael, and the two spoke almost every week for a year. There were weeks when Michael was the only person with whom Daniel talked, but after the intervention, and the protests, Daniel’s close friends noticed a change. “He had to decide who he was going to be in prison,” Mir said, and he was edging toward this. It would not be a surprise, like the raid. He had time to plan. He was going to quit smoking, get healthy. There was a list of things to do: see people back home, Mortal Kombat with Mir, make dinner for his friends. He was talking more about his fears for the future and dark things in his past. He cried, for the first time in a long time, on his call with Michael.
...
He had violated his release, he remembers the Marshals saying, and the reason they gave was “mental health.” Michael feared he was a danger to himself. The violation was in being perceived as unstable when it was in the state’s interest to make sure he lived to serve his time.
...
The story, Daniel says, was related to him as a tale about the inhumanity of the Taliban, but that was not the lesson Daniel took. He can’t really argue with Michael’s assessment. He thinks about the girls every day, and when he does, he thinks about killing himself.

And so in the summer of 2021 Daniel spends his days in a concrete cage eight feet long and ten feet wide, a fragile man in a hard room among many other men in many other rooms. It is out of concern for his well-being that the court wants him always in view. Their interests are his interests. They’re trying to keep him safe.

assigns him a therapist who gets him to open up emotionally about his regrets about murdering children for america, so it can be used to throw him in prison awaiting sentencing.

the way you can determine if something is a coup is by asking the question "is there any chance that the military takes orders from these people?"

1/6 was definitely an attempt at a counter-revolution, but they were dumbasses that had no chance of success. The people going into the Capitol thought they were going to stop Congress from handing a stolen election to socialist puppet Joe Biden. They had some sympathy from local police, but were filled with federal informants and didn't have any collaborators in the military. There's definitely stuff to be investigated, but no investigation is going to touch the Deep State ghouls that most deserve scrutiny.

The time for the Democrats to have held these hearings was months ago, even if they just wanted a charade to justify passing more security state BS. They are focusing on that idiot mob now instead of current issues like Delta variant, rising housing costs and evictions, and climate change.

The comparison to the 2011 Wisconsin labor protests is hard to see because at the time there definitely were groups in Madison pushing for that occupation to take on a more radical orientation. In retrospect, it's shameful that they were able to get those anti-union laws passed without needing to call out the national guard. The Democrats successful transferred all that energy into elections which they then lost.

That loving recall election against Walker was more disgusting than the QAnon shaman at a congressional podium.

newly drilled wells maybe, and especially if you include reworks, but conventional is still like ~35% of production and has remained a relatively steady amount its just that unconventional has boomed.
