Number Ten Cocks posted:That's nice. Are you saying they made up their FOIA results? No, what he's saying is that it's something that's made sensational for no real reason. Why does it matter how many sailors get pregnant? Yes, deployment readiness and all that bullshit, but people get yanked from deployment for other medical issues all the time. It's a hit piece on women to try to turn people's attitudes even more negative about pregnancy.

Number Ten Cocks posted:If you identified a medical condition that made it 16% likely you couldn't complete a deployment you wouldn't be allowed to deploy. The Daily Caller has identified a condition that has a 16% failure rate associated with it. That's interesting and newsworthy, and there's even an easy to implement policy that can fix it and has worked in the past. Women get pregnant. Its the circle of life. What's your point? While I was at squadron I helped track manning for the entire DESRON. Pregnancy was just one of the myriad of reasons that people were yanked. Sadbrains took more sailors off of ships than pregnancies ever did. Additionally, women can continue to serve on a ship up to a certain time frame while pregnant. That entire article is based off of cherry picked statistics and the purpose behind it is attack women.

Genocide Tendency posted:If things haven't changed... The UCMJ has an other than missionary with spouse rule. Basically any sexual activity other than missionary with a spouse for any reason outside of conception is illegal. Believe it or not there are states that still have these laws on the books too. That's always been a gross misunderstanding of article 125. quote:(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense. That article is only used to prosecute non-consensual stuff. "United States v. Castellano, 72 M.J. 217 (although Article 125, UCMJ, prohibits every kind of unnatural carnal intercourse, wholly private, consensual sexual activity between adults otherwise proscribed by Article 125, UCMJ, is constitutionally protected, absent some other fact)."

Dead Reckoning posted:They are certainly less litigious than alive people, but the jury awards and legal penalties tend to be higher. I highly doubt viability of the patient as a witness factors in to cops' procedures for rendering aid though. In Florida "A law enforcement officer, including a police officer, has a legal duty to provide aid to ill, injured, and distressed persons who are not in police custody during an emergency whether the law enforcement officer is on-duty or acting in a law enforcement capacity off-duty." Further, "A law enforcement officer rendering emergency aid to ill, injured, or distressed persons on-duty or acting in a law enforcement capacity while off-duty is acting within the scope of his or her employment" and is thus shielded from liability. Now I can't speak to other states, but an officer here would be obligated to provide aid to the guy he just shot for no reason up to his level of competence and would be personally shielded from liability for any tort caused by said aid. Here's a handy read if you're curious: http://www.myfloridalegal.com/ago.nsf/Opinions/85E4F114E318503185256570006E05B3 Basically your entire post, in florida, is wrong.

Smiling Jack posted:I have some really bad news for you guys about how well cops are medically trained and equipped I know the answer is none at all. And the law only requires aid up to their level of competence, so it's partially by design. I agree with KFFF that they should be at least EMT basic level trained with a moderate first aid kit. I know in most places firefighters are also EMT certified and there's really no good reason for police to not be as well.

Dead Reckoning posted:I was about to point that out. How "in custody" is interpreted has a lot of bearing on how that plays out. Anyone the cops shoot is probably going to be in custody immediately. A dude bleeding out crying on the ground is not in custody. Also the only reason that custody is mentioned is that the question proposed for the advisory opinion specified out of custody. "1. Does a law enforcement officer have a legal duty to provide aid to ill, injured, and distressed persons, who are not in police custody, during an emergency?" The answer is yes police officers on or off the clock have a duty to provide aid up to their level of competence. An officer absolutely has a duty of care to aid someone that is in custody. This was never in question. Once again, though, it is only up to their level of competence.

Kung Fu Fist gently caress posted:should probably be covered in the academy, then have yearly refresher courses when not on duty. tourniquets or even simple pressure dressing to help mitigate some dude from bleeding out while you wait for the paramedics. maybe some more legal protection from being sued for rendering aid as well? I'm almost certain that laws of most states will mirror Florida's because most of it is based on the common law peace officer duties of a sheriff. They are likely required to render aid up to their level of competence in most jurisdictions nationwide and covered from suit because it is in the line of duty. Getting sued isn't why the cop doesn't help the guy he just ventilated.

VikingSkull posted:The problem with this country is not that the left is idealistic and the right is nefarious, it's that both sides are partisan and refuse to work with each other to come to a sensible conclusion that eliminates the idealism of both fringes. This reeks of the right's claim that Obama was divisive and caused all the partisanship when the rift was caused entirely by republicans. They pledged to create a rift and then stood at the other side blaming the black guy for the division. One party is refusing to work with the other to propose anything sensible. They can't even propose anything their own party feels is passable.

I'm a precinct chair for my area and have been to multiple executive meetings and precinct meetings. There is massive discussion at grassroots levels how we're going to get more people involved with voting and a bevy of issues that people are presenting to their representatives.

KildarX posted:I know there's a moratorium on gun chat and punching hitlerites, but can there be also a moratorium on Bernie vs Hillary chat? At this point it's played out to "Bernie was more Charismatic/Bernie was Unelectable/Hillary is a black hole of charisma that hosed the DNC and all DNC Nobles should be hung" and nobody is changing their mind or having a new thought about it. I agree, but want to add this: do not just bitch online. Get involved. Spend some time actually trying to change something instead of just bitching about change. If you want the democratic platform to say something different, you need to go get involved with it and start saying it. You're comfortably shitposting on the internet about being disenfranchised when you are the perfect person to actually get up and do something about it. We are almost all privileged here with sainthood because we're veterans. People will at least listen to what you have to say based on that credential alone. Actually get involved with your local party and start talking to people, volunteering, and working towards a better goal. Nothing will change or improve unless you get out there and make it happen. In the end, we might fail. I might be wasting my time and effort, but god damnit I'm going to put in the effort and try. Our country has been loving hijacked by people who literally want to dismantle it and a russian puppet sits at the top ready to set up an eternal state-sponsored oligarchy for his family and friends. I'm sorry to get all dumb and preachy about this, but get off your rear end and go do something about it. Write an op-ed for your newspaper at least. Anything at all to push for a better loving tomorrow, because if we don't we cannot expect anything but more of the same. Seriously, though, its time to nut up or shut up about stupid political fighting. There is actual poo poo that needs to be done and you have the power to help do it.

Is there some wasteful spending? Absolutely. Is it an appreciable amount of any budget? Outside of defense, not really. We are essentially a tax haven at this point, though, and continue to cut taxes for the wealthiest people for no reason.

Godholio posted:Their space program is roughly mid-Apollo. They're operating their second space station, have demonstrated several spacecraft rendezvous, had two successful lunar orbiters (one is moving toward deep space to challenge their tracking systems), a fairly successful lunar rover, another planned to land on the far side next year, and a lunar sample-return mission planned for this year. They're hardly idle, and not far from where we were at our space program's public-eye zenith. China has a massive problem, though, with domestically sourced precision parts. Every corner is cut at every step of procurement for even government operations in china that many things have to be built elsewhere and imported. See, for example, China's airliner that they touted as chinese built:  There are a lot of barriers still to overcome before China is on par with the US in space travel, and it's in large part due to their 5000 years of loving people over and cutting corners.
