Man that's some heartbreaking poo poo

I did a month of grand jury. I got to sit and listen to a few dozen beaten women walk back and make excuses for why their SOs didn't *really* choke them.

Luckily in my state testimony they offer 24 hours after the cops show up is admissible, which was nice.

Feb 2, 2007
I had a roommate with a literal bodybuilder boyfriend with a drinking problem. She breaks up with him one night and later he turns up drunk at our house and starts pushing her around - not hitting her but shoving her into walls and things, punching our walls and appliances, slamming doors and bellowing at her, and then trying to fight me when I tell him to leave. I didn't own a gun at that point and this dude is younger, stronger, meaner, and drunker than me, so I'm in no mood to get myself killed trying to fight him. So I call the cops.

When they show up I watch her go from "arrest that motherfucker I want to press charges right now" to "nevermind" as the cops actively lean hard into her about what a hassle it will be to go to court, and she'll have to testify, and then probably nothing will happen anyway. They literally talked her out of it in our front yard. Meanwhile I'm going, uh, can I press charges? It's my house too? I told him to leave and he threatened me? They ignore me.

They notice he's too drunk to drive so they drive him home. End of consequences for him. I go buy a Mossberg the very next day.

Edit: oh yeah she totally went back to him a few weeks later and stayed with him for a few more years. To my knowledge he never hit her again but he did "accidentally" leak all her nudes by "forgetting" to wipe his hard drive when he sold his computer to someone. He was a winner.

It'd be harder for moneyed interests to convince us poor dumb fucks to fight for their bullshit overseas if we decent educations and affordable tuition. I'd say the system is working as intended.

It’s insane how many people are posting poo poo like this and then being shocked when it bites them in the rear end. An EMT near me just got fired for a Facebook post full of racial slurs (that he misspelled sometimes, naturally).

Who needs one anymore? Some gently caress probably suggesting letting minorities and their supporters to get sick, and some other gently caress approved it after getting hard at the thought of how much money their ownership stake in a hospital would pull in.
