It’s likely they are trying to deflect on a technicality; something like “Medical experts say …[etc etc]… at 108F.”

They tend to do that a lot. Unfortunately that’s probably the heat lethal point; and it can vary a lot based on weight and size; which a doctor or educated practitioner would know; but not an average prison guard, captain or warden who is only intelligent enough to go by what their little book says.

Obviously they are not taught nor instructed to have any compassion whatsoever; and prisoners’ complaints are routinely ignored, intentionally misrouted, mishandled and withheld without good reason.

It’s oftentimes 10x worse in states like Texas…where the usual attitude is to dehumanize prisoners. I genuinely hope they are forced to reform things and stop slacking.

Disgusting. I hope this stupid cop rots in jail for life.

It’s apparent there’s a crisis brewing in Law Enforcement and Officers are not getting trained properly. Frankly, I don’t care what police training says; it isn’t smart to use a sidearm on somebody who does not have any kind of weapon on them equal to that sidearm.

Similarly we need to quickly dismiss and retire officers to a desk job or no badge at all; who are showing signs of psychological trauma and problems; regardless of if they say they’re OK or not.

Similarly departments should not be operating in a manner that can send a stressed officer out to assist someone. Make sure duty rotations do not overly tax them, make sure they have plenty of breaks, and make sure they’re fresh, properly trained, calm and relaxed. Don’t send the wrong officer out for the job if possible. Don’t hire assholes, don’t hire felons, don’t hire people with dark triad tendencies, and don’t hire people with psychological problems or problems with authority.

Being an officer of any jurisdiction is a privilege we should revoke in an absolute instant the moment that any indication of problems arise in their empathy and cognition. Officers need to be good and sensible people with no issues.

There just isn’t any valid excuse for a police officer murdering an innocent, unarmed and scared woman like that. For any reason. It was his duty to protect her, and he not only did not do that, he intimidated her and killed her.

Yeah this isn’t surprising.

What’s funnier is how he acts like a toddler with his hand caught in the cookie jar; blaming it on his imaginary friend or whatever else is convenient to blame at hand.

Make no mistake; this is their plan. For far right extremist believers; this is their most fevered and deepest desire dream. They are, unfortunately, thinking that they are the only ones who are “right” to rule the world; despite how wrong they are and despite literally everything and everyone telling them they CANNOT do that.

To be clear; these kinds of minds have fallen to the trap that religion breeds.

When used in moderation; religion can be helpful for people both mentally and emotionally. It can allow them to cope with, and accept, reality and when they abandon all fear and put faith into something it can bring themselves back to focusing on things more productively.

When used in excess; religion can breed utter lack of reason and sanity. This is the trap. This is when someone loses touch with reality. When you abandon all fear and put faith into something; you become the most reckless thing imaginable; and the damage to the world and others you can do with this is virtually unlimited.

As they say; “The road to Hell is paved with ‘Good Intentions’.”. There is nothing more dangerous than a fool who believes he is doing the right thing. The foolish cannot be reasoned with, or dissuaded from their path, for they are a fool.

This is Google’s way of throwing a fit. They’ve been thwarted at every attempt to replace cookies with something WAY MORE creepy and WORSE by privacy advocates.

They’re quickly realizing that people will not give advertisers free reign anymore.

This is horrifying. Unfortunately this is a problem because most countries do not allow abortion after a certain period of pregnancy; and there is oftentimes no exceptions to this that isn’t “a Rape charge on someone they might have slept with.”

This means that certain women can get “stealth-ed” by someone¹ and not realize they’re pregnant until they’re too late past the abortion deadline because of their biology and inexperience with being pregnant. It’s also random and uncommon enough that authorities and lawmakers do not make accommodations for this situation.

¹ - This also includes other situations such as uncommon birth control failures.

In this case; anti-abortion laws are intended to be cruel.

Unfortunately, women who are unknowingly pregnant also can’t get help. I think it’s likely the woman did not know she was pregnant until some point nearing the birth in the 8th or 9th month. If you’re a woman who isn’t native to the country, don’t know it’s laws, don’t know where to get help and stuck on a business trip or company provided residency visa; I could see how easily one could be quite panicked.

I don’t think she did the right thing. Unfortunately it’s a rare case of some grey areas which too often we tend to treat like a black area of wrong.

If we assume that, in theory…as an example, Biden were to abuse the ruling and if we also assume he means well; he could theoretically do the following:

• Simply round up Trump, all his major supporters, major far-right republicans and anyone else who has been making large moves that support the treasonous and seditious acts
• Declare all of them terrorists, seditionists and traitors to the country
• Recommend that the DoJ immediately arrest them, find them guilty, and sentence them to exactly 4 years of prison for each individual seditious anything they were doing, or perceived to be doing.
  • Most of the powerful ones would be serving multi-decade sentences probably.
• Get re-elected, push through bills to patch up any and all loopholes they used to undermine the system of government.
• Step down after the term and retire from politics after having put down their rebellion.

Rationally; she did break a rule. Logically; that should’ve seen her placed in the ‘Female Solitary Unit’; as she was already classified as female.

Unfortunately, the prison also made a large mistake, and she should not have been ‘transferred’ to a Men’s Facility.

I should point out that pellet guns do not have a ‘Day-Glo Safety Orange/Red’ tip.

As they do eject actually harmful projectiles; they look much like other guns until you get close to them. Reasonable parenting would have included making sure the child understood that under no circumstances do you point that at people.

That doesn’t make this less of a tragedy, but it does provide some context to the situation. Cops are, sadly, trained out of necessity not to try to discern when on the receiving end of any gun barrel. While it’s difficult to expect a child to know not to point weapons at police; doing so is in fact dangerous.
