Ralepozozaxe posted:At what point in the story did they release his past crimes (the victim) to the public, was it before or after this video came out? If we lived in a good world all the news stations would question their making GBS threads on the victim so quickly from now on (this will never happen though). His gimmick is to be literal human trash.

Trabisnikof posted:I prefer to use the 2009 example where NYPD had an officer involuntarily committed as suicidal because he had recorded corruption in his precinct: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_Schoolcraft There was a good piece about it on NPR a few years ago. He would have been committed for life, but he had little sound recorders all around his house set up in case the police tried to get him. When they (the police) came they found one of them, but not the others. The guy's father found them after the fact and used them as evidence to get him out of the mental hospital (or wherever it was) he was put in. The guy now stays with his dad, but doesn't really leave the house, as the police constantly harass him when he goes outside and when he stays in. This is a different police force than the one he worked for harassing him by the way.

If you have not listened to the This American Life podcast about this you should do it. The recording of when Adrian's superior pays him a visit at home is absolutely chilling.

I don't see this as a bad thing. I remember such a law was proposed in California when I lived there back in the 90s and prominent Hispanic leaders were against it because white cops always seem to think 20-something Hispanic men are teenagers. They saw it as giving cops another way to harass Latinos since an outsized proportion of them perform manual labor and get to work via pickup beds.

HUGE PUBES A PLUS posted:At some point those kids will have to go home and the poverty is still at home. How would changing a school schedule affect that? It doesn't matter when kids go to school or for how long. They still have all the poo poo happening at home whether they're home in the morning to deal with it or home at night. You do realize the food kids are served at school are often the only reliable sources for meals kids living in poverty have? I worked in a high school where students would come to school long enough to get their free lunch courtesy of the USDA, then take off afterward and skip their afternoon classes. The idea of extending hours to help kids stay out of trouble or alleviate a lack of parenting at home (before school, after school, and summer learning) is a long running idea kicking in academia and school administration, and there is a current federal program (21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC))) that is supposed to fund that. Here's an article about it being underfunded: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2013/07/15/the-secret-war-on-afterschool-programs/ And there seems to be some data showing some incremental gains in scoring and emotional wellness from some versions of this program: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c11725.pdf Though this really well written article argues for more effective programs and attitudes for schools, rather than just more hours: http://www.ascd.org/publications/books/109074/chapters/How-Poverty-Affects-Behavior-and-Academic-Performance.aspx

It'll probably take a little while for him to actually be fired officially canceling their health insurance. As a mother without a job she'd be eligible for medicaid after the city's insurance expires so the state would still be covering everything. hobbesmaster fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Apr 9, 2015 |

Venom Snake posted:1st. He's an rear end in a top hat if he shoots snakes or kills them I can understand killing venomous snakes you find around your home if you have pets/children but if it's not deadly* and you kill it you're a loving rear end in a top hat. Does not apply to people who kill a cornsnake because there's copperheads in the area and they didn't/couldn't get close enough to verify which it was. * Lake Erie water snakes don't count, even though they are the embodiment of evil. The Dirty Jobs episode where Mike has to help collect them is magical. achillesforever6 posted:Yeah my school was hit particularly bad, like for four years other than Latin & humanities/psychology (you can't be an rear end in a top hat when your teacher's name is Mr. Justice) classes most of my peers were complete jagoffs who gave no shits about learning and instead decide to be complete pricks to the hardworking teachers who I could actually relate to and find more meaningful conversations with about life and also shoot the poo poo about stuff. I don't remember Gateway being thought of as a Thug School (back in the 90s) but it was generally seen by people as a school where underachievers and/or those who weren't going to get in to a good college, or join the military, went. Your school fights are nothing. In the same year at my school one girl smashed a Snapple bottle on the face of another, and in a different fight a girl had a sizeable clump of hair ripped out of her head. This was at a middle class, mostly white district. greatn posted:Witnesses can be conditioned to believe a lot through suggestion. It isn't their fault. If it's crazy people making poo poo up, like in the Mike Brown shooting, they should fry alongside the murderer cop who they're covering for. Talmonis posted:Sounds like accessory to murder to me. We'll be lucky if the murderer himself actually goes to prison. Cops have far too much undeserved love and protection for accessories to get charged too. hobbesmaster posted:A police officer attempted to stop corruption in the 60s NYPD narcotics unit. He was put on point on a high danger raid, as soon as the door was busted down all the other cops left him to be shot. Calling it a raid implies it wasn't actually a setup to kill him, which it was. The cops with him knew what to expect which is why they made sure to leave as he tried to get in the door where someone with a gun just happened to be waiting to shoot him immediately. The cop that did respond later mentioned if they realized who they were helping they'd have let him die instead. The NYPD is so corrupt that it's beyond believe and it's a shame the feds will never clean house there. The NYPD was even kind enough to show how loving terrible they were when they did their work stoppage poo poo recently and minorities in the city were commenting on how nice it was to not be accosted by (white) cops constantly for no reason.
