A Texas deputy on assignment at Uvalde after the shooting was fired for being intoxicated.
While not on duty, he was in the temporary barracks. He was so drunk he was deemed a danger to himself or others.
Texas Deputy on Assignment in Uvalde Fired for Off-Duty Drunkenness: Police
AL.com reports that man was attempting to break into a school and and SRO’s vehicle. When they attempted to arrest him, the suspect tried to take the officers gun.
This lead to the suspect slowly reaching room temperature. A happy ending.
That Clay Watkins wasn’t willing to pay $8 for LaCroix sparkling water. He had to buy a store brand.
NPR is reporting that elites are actually having to make spending decisions. That they’ve actually noticed that amounts are smaller and prices are up.
The Labor Department is reporting consumer prices are up 8% or more over last year. What they don’t say in those numbers is that only certain things are counted as “consumer prices” so the fact the price of gas has doubled doesn’t really get included in those numbers.
Of course it is being blamed on the pandemic. You see it was happening BEFORE Joe got in office.
And it is just the Ukraine war that got people to notice inflation, the Putin price hike, don’t you know.
But the only thing that will stop inflation is if we plebs stop buying things…
From the New York Post
A hard-to-find key to a locked classroom door was the ultimate reason police waited 77 minutes to enter a Robb Elementary classroom to kill a gunman, stopping the massacre that claimed the lives of 19 students and two teachers, the under-fire police chief said.
Oh, it was their inability to find a key that kept them from entering the room.
“Not a single responding officer ever hesitated, even for a moment, to put themselves at risk to save the children,” Arredondo told the newspaper. “We responded to the information that we had and had to adjust to whatever we faced.”
The door jamb was steel so they couldn’t just kick it in. I don’t know, I’ve seen a few police rams designed to do exactly that. And every fire and rescue vehicle I know carry those magic pry bars. I’ve seen fire fighters open doors in contests in less than 30 seconds.
The door to the classroom that Ramos was in had a steel jamb and could not be kicked in, Arredondo told the paper. He spent more than an hour in the hallway trying dozens of keys.
The school district police chief also tried to justify his decision not to take his police radios into the school with him, believing he needed both hands to take down the shooter instead of holding the devices that might give away his position if the gunman heard them. Arredondo also did not have a bullet resistant vest, he told the paper.
“Our objective was to save as many lives as we could, and the extraction of the students from the classrooms by all that were involved saved over 500 of our Uvalde students and teachers before we gained access to the shooter and eliminated the threat,” Arredondo said.
But Arredondo’s decision not to take his radios in with him meant he did not know that students were calling 911 from inside the two classrooms the gunman targeted, begging for police to stop him.
In Robert Heinlein’s book The Number of the Beast they endup in a world where justice is an eye for an eye. The example given is that of a man found guilty of hitting a pedestrian and leaving. The pedestrian survived.
The punishment? They tied the man to the road and drove over his legs, the same as the victim. They then stood around and waited while the guilty screamed and begged for 45 minutes. At the end of 45 minutes the rescue team went to work. The same 45 minutes that the original victim waited before rescue arrived.
I think we should find a suitable punishment for Pete Arredondo, a monster.
We all died in 2020 and this is hell.
You shouldn’t miss a good meal for a good time. That’s why this Pride, we’ve teamed up with @DrEvanGoldstein and @smartthrob to create the world’s first Bottom-Friendly Menu (yup, it’s real). #EatWithPride pic.twitter.com/03Fm8YJlAP

Exactly. We’re tired of heterosexual sex being the main focus of sexual education. Homosexual sex, specifically bottoming, is all too often omitted and stigmatized. Not this year. Happy Pride!

A food delivery app is here to help you eat so you can nice clean suits so that it’s less messy when ANOTHER MAN FUCKS YOU IN THE ASSHOLE!!!
That is the level of allyship that Postmates (which is owned by Uber) strives to.
I don’t use Postmates but will they call me a homophobe if I have hot wings and jalapeño poppers delivered?
How do they outdo this level of allyship for Pride 2023.
I guess they will bring you a buttsex friendly menu and have the driver fluff the top.
Dear God, send the fire and brimstone, San Francisco deserves it.
