GARVASE DAY!

Maybe they're actually trying to defuse the situation without unnecessary fatalities? Ditching eggs at people is, yes, still a crime but the punishment for it is also not usually capital. Generally people trained to use guns are told to only even think about touching the holster is someone's life is in danger and unlike certain newsworthy police forces they're simply following that training.

E: VVV That's what I wanted to say but I guess you're braver than me. :v:

I know I wasn't serious when I asked why they didn't shoot and I am quite certain the poster you quoted isn't serious, either. Was it that difficult to detect? :(

Apparently when electricity first started being available everywhere, there were a lot of people who didn't know how to not do bad things to get electrocuted.

I'm cracking up at the expressions they gave the people. Especially the train wire piss guy and the baby chewing on the live wire.

So here in Illinois, there was a much-loved cop that went missing and was eventually found dead. Over 300,000 bucks was spent trying to find the guy, his killers, whatever. Of course, lots of conservatives blamed Black Lives Matter for it. Lots of talk about how he was such a nice guy, totally a hero, etc.

Turns out, he killed himself because he and some other cops had been embezzling money for a while now, and he was acutely aware that the higher-ups were going to find out about it.

Just want to point out this part of the article-

quote:

At least one man paid for a tattoo to have the fallen cop memorialized.

You are the first crack in the sheer face of god. From you it will spread.
Some primo schadenfreude in last night's Celtics game. Context:

C's have the ball with 1.1 seconds left before halftime. They have to get the ball from one end of the court to the other and make a basket in 1.1 seconds. So, Jae Crowder chucks the thing all the way across the floor from where he's inbounding it...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJL-D-rcd50

...And it goes in instead of getting to his man on the other end of the court. It doesn't count because he was out of bounds when he threw it. I was listening to the game on the radio in my car when it happened. The Celtics' hyperactive color commentator was literally speechless. The other broadcaster just stammered "it went in" before saying that Crowder could do that 1,000 more times and it'll never happen again.

Also, the Celtics ended up losing by 2 points. :negative:

I love the whimpering the thief makes once the big guy's on top of him. "You're going to jail, fucker." "a bloo bloo bloo :qq:" "Bring me my pants. And bring me a knife."
