Best counters I can figure:

  1. More an issue of putting a resisting arrestee back there without breaking either them or the car.

  2. Probably not often, but it is in their job description to respond to active shooters. And the usual bit about them being so bad at deescalatuon that they make things worse.

  3. I think the concern is less for the detained and more for the patrolling man-hours of the cops themselves. Every minute spent charging is a minute they aren't reminding the public that there are consequences for standing out.

Welp. Better late than never, I guess.

I always struggle with the "shutdown" timeframe. Partly because I have a shit sense of time, but mostly because nothing really changed for me.

A shutdown very well spent!

Not in backwater Alabama. Gotta wait for the day of.

The Taco Bell beetle?

I was certain you'd be bored of it by now. But at least it's not another one of our "Roosevelt Corollary" adventures.

Was the magazine for the handgun? Cause high capacity for a shotgun is like 7 shells.

Could embiggen it by a factor of 10 by removing the gender marker.

The Zionists, whose explicit aims were to found a Jewish state in Palestine (what would later be Israel), were the targets as far back as the Ottoman control of the area.

Even terror attacks such as the Munich Massacre were pretty specifically targetting Israeli expatriats.

Mostly my beef is with the conflation of Jewish and Israeli. They do not represent all Jews, and any conflation of those distinct groups should be put down.

In the year 512 Urist Fogmallet bit the finger off Bost Vilegreen.

And you can check 50 years later, and Bost will still be missing that finger. Quintessential for making a world that lives outside your fort.

The peasantry?

I think you want the fourth estate.
