they don't know all alien abduction experiences can be explained by people thinking saving private ryan was a documentary

quote:

Two current Black Capitol Police officers told BuzzFeed News that they were angered by leadership failures that they said put them at risk as racist members of the mob stormed the building. The Capitol Police force is only 29% Black in a city that’s 46% Black. By contrast, as of 2018, 52% of Washington Metropolitan police officers were Black. The Capitol Police are comparable to the Metropolitan force in spending, employing more than 2,300 people and boasting an annual budget of about a half-billion dollars.
..

In her 25 years with the Capitol Police, Blackmon-Malloy spent decades trying to raise the alarm about what she saw as endemic racism within the force, even organizing demonstrations where Black officers would return to the Capitol off-duty, protesting outside the building they usually protect.

The 2001 case, which started with more than 250 plaintiffs, remains pending. As recently as 2016, a Black female officer filed a racial discrimination complaint against the department.

“Nothing ever really was resolved. Congress turned a blind eye to racism on the Hill,” Blackmon-Malloy, who retired as a lieutenant in 2007, told ProPublica. She is now vice president of the U.S. Capitol Black Police Association, which held 16 demonstrations protesting alleged discrimination between 2013 and 2018. “We got Jan. 6 because no one took us seriously.”

The fun extension of that is "feared for my life" an excuse to attack/kill people even if the cop created the situation that caused them to "fear for my life". They can start a fight and justify shooting someone if they find themselves on the losing side of it.

Considering that Law and Justice was budgeted for $79.5MM (total county general fund was something like $110MM) in Thurston County last year you'd think they could afford it

Do they file dogs under property insurance, or life insurance? Just asking, because I know they like to change whether dogs are cops or tools based on who's the one killing them.

You can get pet insurance, and hollywood has insurance for any animals they regularly use. I'd assume a police dog would fall under either working animal or pet insurance, most likely the former.

Yes but why would you not take the opportunity to double dip? Especially considering insurance companies are terrified of ever denying payouts to conservatives, I point to a spate of negligent/deliberate fires of farm equipment that were blamed on A.N.T.I.F.A. Nebraska, where they again got both an insurance and GFM payout.

Real answer is look up literature on how to deal with cult stuff and it’s basically the same.
