I mean, it's pretty obvious at this point that Russia wants everyone to know they were behind it, so Trump acknowledging it is no big deal. The question is wether the administration will DO anything about it. Aramis fucked around with this message at 16:27 on Mar 15, 2018 |

Caros posted:Eh, my dad bounced probably a dozen people out of his restaurant over the course of a decade. Police tend to side with business owners who eject people unless there is something seriously hosed up, because they generally don't pick a fight in their place of business for no loving reason. Assuming his resturant wasn't owned by Brinker or Darden like the majority of chains? because you absolutely can not get away with that. I had some kids throw rocks at cars and when I told them to stop, throw rocks at me (it's cool, I as inside) and we didn't ask them the leave. The only time I remember anyone being kicked out (or asked to leave in an angry, angry tone) is when this old guy physically grabbed my rear end.

Eh, there's a lot going on there and I'd like to know more than the 2 minute clip before I go calling people spawns of satan or poor innocent angels. Just because the manager was fired doesn't mean anything more than the theater owners trying to smooth over their side because they aren't dumb, right or wrong that video would stir up a lot of hate towards them if they did nothing.

They shouted contradictory instructions (Hands up, now crawl towards me) and threatened to murder this sobbing, terrified man if he hosed up. Them his pants started to fall down due to be ing told to crawl on his knees. He tried to grab him and they shot him to death.

KingNastidon posted:It's really okay to consider she may just be a disruptive rear end regardless of her race. Black people can be assholes too. That doesn't mean what the manager said was right, nor that racial bias was 100% not involved, or that police never initiate force faster than necessary. But I don't know man, saying 100% of cops are always fascists for removing someone from private property for disruptive behavior after repeated verbal requests seems a bit extreme! Maybe I'm just turning into a law and order conservative for thinking the implied alternative isn't terribly realistic. Human rights > property rights. It's never okay to attack a nonviolent person simply for refusing to leave a building or follow orders, barring some absurd situation like the building is burning down and its the only way to save their life. And no, "being black" does not count as an absurd situation, I promise you don't need to worry that every black person is always on the verge of hmm well what do the posters at chimpout.com call it? Xequecal posted:It's completely different if you're a cop. Your job as a cop is to enforce the law. Once you get called in, you absolutely should not waste time trying to talk defiant criminals down. If they're breaking the law and refuse to stop, you arrest them. Wtf why. Cops should never try to deescalate a situation? They should just immediately attack? Do you ever think for a second that because of a misunderstanding that this could affect you too? Or are you just assuming you're the kind of person that will always get the benefit of the doubt so it doesn't matter if *ahem* other types of people are attacked right off the bat.

Police aren't going to hastle you either way if you are an owner, but in a chain resteraunt you'd absolutely be done in a heartbeat, I agree. We didn't even kick out actual thieves without the police when I used to work at a drug store. Course, in that instance we got a test subject in why, after a good samaratin tried to catch a thief who stole a display laptop and took a thrown pair of needle nose pliers to the face as a result.

Chaos Personified posted:It doesn't matter who's property it was on. The manager needs to be the one to deny her entry, not the police for it to be trespassing. If the cop claimed public disturbance or disorderly conduct, he might have the slightest chance of not coming across as not assaulting the woman. That he went with trespassing as his excuse shows that he was only interested in punishing the woman for disrespecting him. The woman had not been ejected from the theater, so she wasn't trespassing. A theater has implied consent to enter, so unless the owner actively denies the person entry, they are not trespassing. The manager delegated his authority to the cop in the actual video. He's allowed to do that, I assure you the security guards at your local theater are allowed to throw you out of there without calling the actual owner first. Even if the cop actually was just throwing her off the property entirely to satisfy his own ego, once he's been given the authority to decide who stays and who goes, he's actually allowed to do that. If you don't like it, you need to take it up with the owner. Unless they eject you specifically because you're a member of a protected class they don't have to justify it, they can do it for any or no reason.

Xequecal posted:But when you did this, you were an employee of the establishment that you were throwing people out of. The establishment has a vested interest in playing nice if at all possible, and would definitely prefer you talk belligerents down if at all possible. That's why the theater fired this manager, he escalated the situation immediately when they probably would have wanted him to try and talk the women down first. Dude, this is loving dumb. Police should always try to descalate a situation. It is safer for everyone involved to have the officer talk a person into cuffs than to body slam them.

FateFree posted:If there is a great filter its more likely that its still in front of us. My vote is machine sentience. Once we interface with the brain and start uploading our consciousness to machines and making virtual paradises (that may seem to last infinitely long) there's probably no desire to do anything else until the sun explodes. Why is it more likely ahead of us? we can look at history and see that there was literally exactly one step that seemed to present any difficulty or resistance. It's clearly that. Life appeared in a few million years, from nerves to rocket ships is a few million years, from humans to civilization was less than a million years, every step was basically as fast as is imaginable, which implies that even if we were above average fast that it just happens easy. Except for cells to multicellular which took 3 billion years. It's clearly the great filter. It's clearly the step that was very hard and could have just never gone through. Everything else could have taken ten times as long or even 100 times as long (or happened and failed and had to rehappen) and not really have mattered. Multicellular life is the only thing that was ever any sort of apparent barrier. Even if we all play world of warcraft all day in the future all it takes is one super space amish team ever to make a von neumann probe and ruin that as a great filter. The formation of multicellular life is the only thing where if we are in the top 10% that it would mean we get to be among the first. Everything else could try and fail countless times before success or happen way slower and still be fine.
