ASAPI posted:Per news channels, 2 cops ran over with knife guys car, knife guy shot by cap police. If that quote is right that they got rammed into the barrier by the car, then.... gently caress. I can picture that and isn't good.

RFC2324 posted:I mean, Americans too, so we will always have violent sports. But parents are getting less likely to let little Timmy play football until its clear that yeah, his destiny is hitting people. I played football in HS and my kid is a fuckin brick who would probably make a killer player when he's older but there's no way in hell we're signing off on that if we can get him to do literally anything else instead.

Grip it and rip it posted:I dont think I understand what that smiley means in this context - do you want those jurors sequestered? They're explicitly saying "look, if we sequestered jurors every time a cop shot somebody in the US they'd be perpetually sequestered"

wins32767 posted:Capitalism isn't the sole cause of inequality, weak democratic institutions are just as impactful, if not moreso. This is basically Picketty's argument although I think he'd say that capitalism is the sole cause of inequality but democratic institutions can and should prevent that inequality from developing through active intervention. So capitalism is the cause, institutions are the mediator, humans should probably work on fixing both.

ASAPI posted:They are still looking for the dude. The area is set up in a way that they need lots of people to look for someone that is trying to hide. Lots of trees and hiking trails, parks etc. Apparently dude is a cop arrested for sexual assault last year. Or at least shares the name with that person, and the cops are not saying it *isn't* him. https://amp.statesman.com/amp/7278131002 Edit: *child* sexual assault.

Cugel the Clever posted:I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary that would suggest this round of tensions is about to go hot? Zelensky is just blustering to appeal to the domestic audience and encourage allies to support him; Putin's still playing at his own grandstanding escalation. Ukraine sure af ain't gonna initiate hostilities and Russia is very unlikely to barring Putin huffing his own farts more than usual. The Russian troop buildup on the Ukrainian border is arguably outside of what's typical for military exercises, and the water shortage in Crimea provides a strategic justification for some kind of a surge or a direct deployment of Russian troops. It's not impossible that Putin is going to try a limited direct invasion to step on Ukraine, restore water to Crimea, and undercut Biden at a time when he's under a lot of domestic pressure for how he handled Navalny and pissed off about Biden calling him out. It's not inevitable, but the folks I know in Ukraine are more freaked out and more prepared for a conflict escalation than they have been in years.

Description: Beer I find it cool that in the era of massive companies homogenizing the poo poo out of everything, there's still massive regional variance in garbage-tier beer. I feel like every state, and occasionally every city within some states, have their own local pisswater you can get for dirt cheap. I knew a guy in St Louis who would start his day with what he called "poor man's Guinness" - a 50/50 ratio of coffee and Stag beer, which is a midwestern poo poo-tier cheap beer (but actually way better than Coors)

Brute Squad posted:Stag is pretty good for cheap beer. But this, I don't know what I think about this. I'm going to have to try it. It tastes exactly like you think it would taste. Personally, I think it's not terrible if you use sweetened coffee but still not as good as just drinking coffee with a beer chaser if you want.

Soylent Pudding posted:The article makes it look like Gaetz refused to list a finger to help Greenberg even after Greenberg made it clear he hadn't flipped because he's holding out for a pardon. This is a thing with fascist or fascist-adjacent groups - most of the higher-ups are in it for personal gain and they obviously operate on FYGM because it's the whole ideology, so they tend to backstab each other more or less constantly. It's one reason why the FBI has penetrated the organized groups so thoroughly - they tend to be willing to cheerfully roll on somebody else to protect their rear end and get a rival out of the way. You can bitch about leftist circular firing squads, but in general it seems to be a little harder to get leftist leaders to throw each other under the bus in my impression.
