So you can just deliberately eject all the star athletes of affluent families every game for funsies. This is so ripe for malicious compliance until it finally hits the courts and get struck. Take a gross system and rub republicans face in it until the bullying finally gets through to them.

Cool story.

Anyway my point, which I feel really loving weird having to point out, is that using your turn signal does not belong in the list of things one does with a car that is not a safety issue.

It belongs in the list of things which are safety issues. Because using your turn signal to signal you are turning is a safety thing. It's not on the same list as things like, for example, just out of my rear end, not having your license plate light working, or having an "obstructed" license plate, or having expired tags. Those are not safety issues.

Safety issues, for example, would be things like not using your turn signal to indicate you are turning or changing lanes. Speeding and weaving through traffic. Using your phone while driving. Driving in the bike lane or on the sidewalk.

I hope this has been made sufficiently clear for you.

Had the same thought, but the people that passed the bill actually don't give a poo poo about women's sports in the slightest. Transpeople are the new Other, so it's time to make people afraid.

No, it'll just create a market for rich families to get some sort of hosed up "gender passport" so that they're pre-approved and can't be questioned.

Yeah, but who’s going to implement malicious compliance? No kid deserves to be subjected to such “investigations”, even if their parents are transphobic shitheads.

Well it sounds like they have to pay a doctor to verify you, which is still gross as gently caress. Does sound like its written to legally also apply to men's teams which means you can bludgeon it to enrage everyone's parents and get it repealed.

The point of malicious compliance is to break the system and force them to give up on the whole process. Hopefully the courts just work faster. Or Florida sinks into the sea and takes its whole state government with it.

"Toledo's identity was not made public for three days. Brown, the police superintendent, said this month that the delay was because Roman [a 21-year-old arrested at the scene of the shooting on March 29], whom he did not name, gave a false name for Toledo to police and because the boy's fingerprints did not match any database records. Ultimately, Brown said, police were able to identify Toledo by looking through resolved missing persons reports.

The boy's mother, Elizabeth Toledo, reported her son missing on March 26 but told detectives the next day that her son had returned, Brown said. When police contacted her again on March 31 to say his description matched that of an unidentified person in the morgue, she said he had left home again either late March 27 or early March 28, according to Brown."

The cop is 100% at fault for what happened. Dude deserves negligent homicide at the very least.

However, if that POS 21 year old guy named Roman didn't shoot the gun with the kid, none of this would've happened. If his mother knew where he was in the middle of the night, none of this would've happened.

Those statements aren't mutually exclusive.

Edit: read it wrong. I originally read this as if she didn't know what day her son left. Rereading it, it's obvious that she meant the same night, not two different days. So it looks like the kid snuck out.

My apologies.

At an April 2 news conference, member station WBEZ reported, Toledo's mother said he had four siblings ranging in age from 11 to 24. She said she had last seen him when she put him to bed the night before the shooting.
