I’m glad I took the AP history classes in high school because you had to be dragged through the entire thing come hell or high water.

All I remember from high school world history though is the teacher describing being woken up concussed by a VC mortar attack covered in the remains of his squadmate from bunk over. That was a thing.

facialimpediment posted:There was a lot of talk that in the case of the Georgia Ahmaud Arbery murder that the DA was going to go the slow route with a Grand Jury, which will take months in the lockdown. The state patrol got control of the case yesterday and less than 24 hours later they were in jail for murder. Sadly nothing is going to happen to the local yokels that tried to make it go away. quote:This case is being investigated in partnership with District Attorney Tom Durden. Hopefully that last one doesn't go anywhere.

The mob failed at lynching though so it can’t be a lynch mob. At best it’s an attempted lynch mob. Do they give out Nobel prizes in attempted chemistry? It’s about ethics in mob journalism.

In what seems like the cleverest move I’ve heard of the protestors broke into the precinct parking lot and MPD continued firing tear gas destroying their own personal vehicles in the process.

There was a case in WI from 2018 where a armed robber holding up a burger joint had someone die of a heart attack getting hit with murder charges. Might've just been the felony murder statute assuming Wisconsin has it.

Wow, de Blasio going full mask off. The entire problem is that the problem departments are not serving their communities in these major cities, they're people that live in the exurbs that believe they are an occupying army and need to use fear to maintain order. NYPD is probably one of the worst offenders here, but they probably can't be overwhelmed by numbers because its one unified department instead of the twin cities area where all the neighboring departments are saying "fix your own mess" so they can actually easily be overrun.
