    It’s more of an indictment on that geographic area to me. Now they have more time to attend klan rallies and form militia groups.

    They weren’t even cheating on a final exam, it was a radar gun test. That’s like cheating at gym class, I can’t wrap my head around it.
    Has anybody ever seen or met somebody who cheated in post-secondary tests? I’ve never crossed the like.

    Cheating was rampant in college and especially law school. Law school was the worst, since it was on a curve and you knew the ones who were cheating and fucking it all up for the rest of us. If you weren't on cheating by getting the exam answers ahead of time or some shit, and doing drugs, you weren't trying basically.

    I’d like to introduce you all the official mascot of the Me Generation, courtesy of my country:



    ....”artist”. Subway employees are insulted right now. This spaz qualifies to be made an example of, let’s see what happens.

    I’m not normally one for public shaming and social justice, but I think this qualifies as one of the rare instances in which it’s justified. He knew exactly what he was doing, he knew the reaction it would get and he wanted it. And now he should deal with the consequences in full.

    He ruined everybody’s vacation —which you work for and look forward to all year— just to satisfy his pathetic little attention whore craving. Whatever happens to him, I don’t care how bad it gets. Just as long as it’s bad.

    These fuckheads were raised by laptops and smartphones and their suicide is a gift to the planet.

    Not just vacations. Potentially there were people traveling on that plane for family emergencies, business plans, bringing aid to Jamaica, any number of things he disrupted. Not sure what Canadian civil law is like but I hope there’s some attorneys lining up begging every one of those passengers to file suit.

    Oh shit. This is attempted homicide. I try to withhold opinions regarding officer-involved shootings because we don’t know what happened before the camera started rolling, but holy fuck.... that’s just horrible.

    No blood. A lot of things that should never happen though

    It’s all in the training and hiring practices. The police union is outraged nobody tried to help. Maybe it’s because they didn’t want to get shot?

    The guy was trying to get away which you don’t do, but he was never fighting them or being violent That was as unwarranted as it gets.

    did the cops ask for help?

    like did they point at someone and say “you, we need your assistance, please help us restrain this person because he is a danger to us and the public”?

    I’m sure not going to surprise armed police from behind and jump into a mix like that. That’s a good way to taste steel.

    yeah I’m not sure what I’d do. My first instinct would be to get the fuck away. Or maybe if I was in the position to offer assistance safely, then let the police know I was there to help if needed and immediately position myself behind cover and await further instructions.

    They were underground in a tunnel. The fucking moron could have missed and deflected the shots, they could have gone anywhere and hit anybody. Reckless cowardice.

    If you can’t arrest me single-handedly when I DON’T feel like being arrested, you shouldn’t be a cop. It doesn’t make sense that I’m being pulled over and given orders by somebody I could just grab and stuff in the trunk of her car if I so much as felt like it.

    The high speed escalator chase was my favorite part.

    Now up to 22.

    I moved from Nashville in November. The tornado ran through the hipsterest part of the city, and so far I’ve heard from all the people I know.

    If you haven’t been in a storm in Nashville, it’s quite the experience. A solid band of shit bearing down on the state:
    [​IMG]
    (that’s just an image I found, I don’t know if it’s the most recent storm)

    And that’s pretty much every few days, from March to October. And if you aren’t following the weather reports, it’s so humid that you don’t see the clouds until they’re right on top of you.

    I was actually excited about the prospect of seeing a tornado in Nebraska, at a distance and nowhere near people. Definitely at a distance.
