    It sure does show the state of things.

    Then again I was stuck in a decent amount of traffic today and the sheer amount of people who attempt to “beat the system” of driving in an orderly manner is also insanely high.

    I’d love to think that we’re better than this as a society, but the reality of the situation is that we’re one or two small steps from pure anarchy and it really wouldn’t take all that much to get there from where we are.

    It’s a fallacy that law enforcement needs 30 secs of someone on the line to trace a call. Any call can be traced, almost immediately. I doubt the largest cell providers even require a warrant . we know for a fact that Amazon hands over video from ring cameras with or without owners permission. I bet if someone were inclined to try, they could probably call up Amazon, say they’re a cop and just “here you go, hero”. Smh. Regardless, it’s not like there are judges that effectively give autographed rubber stamps to the police chiefs, right?

    Every death threat that isn’t followed up upon is a choice made by LE. They allow this to continue. It could be shut down, right fucking now, if they would just do their fucking jobs and not leverage domestic terrorism because it benefits them.

      This sounds like a tin foil hat conspiracy but not.

      TBF it does take a hot minute to get an investigation going/done and this article has been circulating all weekend (very click baity and viralesque) so there hasn’t been and follow up articles posted yet…so we’ll see.

          I wish food labels came with the full binomial nomenclature including the variety and subspecies.

          Here’s your sandwich:

          • Triticum aestivum L. ssp aestivum
          • Lactuca sativa L. var. crispa
          • Solanum lycopersicum L. var. esculentum
          • Glycine max (L.) Merr.
          • Piper nigrum L.
