I think in this case they would be privateers, as they have government backing.

Semantics though, as privateers are just "pirates with permission to pirate certain groups over others"

Either way, "criminals and terrorists hijack peaceful convoy bound to deliver aid to genocide victims"

And that is a perfect example of why ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS

And anyone who says "it's just one bad apple", I submit to you that you require extea reading up on colloquialisms and old sayings, and more schooling to help comprehend the words you're saying.

"one bad apple spoils the bunch"

If no one stops it from happening, they're okay with it happening. If other cops just look away and say anything other than "hey guys, Connors just shot a reporter let's go handcuff him and put him in the back of a car while contacting IA and our supervisors" then they're just as guilty as the cop that shot the reporter.

The standard you walk past is the standard you accept.

"I'm not going to do what you want so you will have to come down here and drag me away"

Damn, Rosa Parks really should have tried resisting instead of just sitting in the front of the bus and refusing to move until she was dragged out by cops.

I assume "oopsie woopsie " is not a typical phrase in the Netherlands, and it's like Ned Flanders from The Simpsons saying "whoospie doodle"?

"my car brain cannot fathom how such places can exist, where is the parking, why aren't there more lanes???"

To many people nowadays, the actual job itself doesn't matter, it's the fact that it's a job and it pays.

Turns out, productivity soars when you have a well rested, well compensated, well treated, healthy, and housed people who don't have constant stessors of literally every aspect of their lives nearly crumbling beneath them...

This is why there are varying carrots in my stew.

Some go in early to get that carrot flavor in the stock, which I like, but that makes them mushy and gross.

So I usually try and get the first carrots out before the potatoes go in, and then it's kind of a guess on my end when to put more carrots in so they're nicely cooked but not overdone.
