In the article they say that they killed it and sent its head for rabies testing. Seems kinda rude as he was only protecting his hogwife.

My MP husband Andrew Bridgen was captured by antivax ‘cult’ I do like the final line quote:The Conservative Party was contacted for a response but declined comment. However, a source questioned what action the party could have taken.

About three and a half years ago I posted in this thread about my niece getting shipped off to one of those "troubled teens" "schools" when she was raising all sorts of Hell around age 15. The place was called The Academy at Ivy Ridge and it's now the subject of a three-part Netflix docuseries called The Program: Cons, Cults, & Kidnapping. Wife and I watched it Tuesday. She went with my in-laws when they sprung the girl from the "school" and recognized the ornate conference room they'd shuffle visitors to so they didn't see what was going on there. Highly recommend watching it. Niece is now 34 and still hasn't really told anyone what she went through in that hellhole.

HelloIAmYourHeart posted:I hope your niece is doing okay these days. Thank you. She's doing well now - just gave birth to a daughter and seems to be loving motherhood. The series bringing light to the horrible poo poo that happened there is giving her some closure, I guess. When the place closed, they just left all the files and poo poo right out in the open. In the docuseries there's a woman who grabbed a bunch and is in the process of mailing them out to the people to whom they belong. Niece is expecting to get hers in a few weeks.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irOQ4gzY0g8 In the early 1990s, three men set out on a mission: to build the ultimate jetpack. Unfortunately, these gentlemen weren't the most stable individuals and the project quickly devolved into infighting and violence. One guy was hit with a hammer so bad he was bedridden for a week. Another man was murdered. Then the first guy kidnapped the guy who attacked him. It's a lot more intense than my blurb right here so have yourselves a watch.

Boomers are Just Like That they have engineering degrees they got really cheap and use them to get small businesses that make hundreds of thousands of dollars per year and sign weird business deals with each other and when they go bad they get extremely violent and do things like shoot up the Mandalay Bay hotel or build an armored bulldozer to demolish everyone in town who wronged them or beat their business partner to death.

The Golden Gael posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irOQ4gzY0g8 The quaintness of their approach to making money with this thing gets me. "Dudes working out of a garage to build something" is now firmly tied to the mythology around tech giants and the billions of dollars they generate, but the vision of these guys extended only to exhibiting it until it broke down. They didn't develop another model aside from making some improvements to the original and they didn't try to market it as a revolution in personal travel. Just ten years later, they would have been swimming in venture capital, but in the early 90s, the jetpack was a novelty and they were just eccentrics playing with it. That has less to do with them than it does with the massive economic changes that would occur with the shift to tech and the internet, but it still seems like a missed opportunity. If they had been able to avoid killing and kidnapping each other for ten years they may have been able to get in on it. It probably also needed more than 30 seconds of operating time, though.

This case is one I've been thinking about too much lately and it makes me angry more than most I've seen. I know you're probably asking rhetorically, but it's futile to try to understand her actions beyond a base level of "she was unable to comprehend the consequences of her actions" for whatever reason.

I can’t follow the logic, which I know there really isn’t any. What did the mom think would happen if she abandoned her 16 month old for over a week, alone? Abandoning your toddler to go on vacation is not a common parenting practice, perhaps I’m out of the loop not being one, but I’m fairly sure that most people do not do that for a myriad of reasons. Correct me if I’m wrong! I have a feeling it’s something related to mental health but goddamn, still no excuse. E: I know it’s futile I just want to try and follow the train of thought in “abandon child, go on vacation, normal thing to do”

The article doesn't suggest there was anyone else parenting the kid, so it's probably more like finally being ground all the way down by the stress and breaking from reality. She already had mental health issues, so I think it's literally just that the consequences did not factor into her decision making. But if there were funds for a beach vacation, holy poo poo there were funds for a goddamn baby sitter

Sounds like a psychotic break tbh, it doesn't excuse what she did but it does explain why there was no logic or reason to it.

StillFullyTerrible posted:Sounds like a psychotic break tbh, it doesn't excuse what she did but it does explain why there was no logic or reason to it. This is why I suggest there's no way to understand, because the things she was thinking would not have been "rational" things. If you read stories about people who have come back from psychotic breaks or manic episodes, they can explain the events and the "why" but it won't make sense to a non-manic person, at all. What we think of as "logic" doesn't apply in these situations.

Kit Walker posted:What...what was she expecting here? What did she think the first responders were going to do? "Gee, this dead child is extremely starved and dehydrated. No foul play here, happens to kids all the time" Apparently there had been previous occasions where she'd arranged with neighbours to 'look after the kid' before leaving for a long period and said neighbours kept on feeding etc the kid long after she said she would be back because what are you going to do, stop? And then this time she was even more dysfunctional and didn't even tell anyone she was going, just leaving things to work themselves out the way they always have.

Georgia Public Broadcasting is currently airing a short documentary on the 1971 Thiokol explosion, which killed 29 in Camden County, which is on the Florida line. GPB has a good article about the Thiokol explosion. Thiokol made tripflares, which were highly flammable, but the plant workers weren't told just how explosive it was. A fire spread to a supply closet, which blew up. Thiokol battled victims' families for more than 15 years, paying out only $20 million. Though the area took care of its own decently well, this was a year after total integration of schools. Most of the victims were Black and quite poor. (Camden's since gotten a military base to boom its population, but remains devoid of any rreal infrastructure.) The documentary is of course very dark, but gets dark as gently caress near the end where they mention Thiokol provided the boosters for Challenger in 1986.
