You have no one to blame but yourself, dummy. Actually I am not sure if you’re dumb or conniving or both, but I genuinely don’t give a shit which it is because you’ve proven yourself to be useless either way.

Great point and important observation. It goes to show, that to the extent that abortion was not historically viewed as a “fundamental” right, it is because historically it was men who got to decide what was “fundamental,” and those men who decided women’s right to bodily autonomy didn’t include abortion also thought

TW: Police violence

My first encounter with the police was one of the first times I tried figuring myself out. I just happened to be wearing a little makeup and slightly feminine clothes. I was 19. I was literally just walking down the street with a former friend.

The

I’m a white male with a squeaky clean record, and even I have had cops pull their guns on me during a traffic stop for a broken taillight. (And, I left without even a ticket... Or an apology.)

So, you are completely okay with the fact that a kid is dead over some small pieces of cardboard and a few dollars worth of dough, tomatoes, and cheese? And, he wasn’t even armed.

Or, you know, just let them go and figure it out later. The worst case if you do that is some cards and a frigging pizza were lost. The worst case if you don’t is what happened here. And if you care not one iota about the kids, consider this.   The other worst case is an officer or a bystander getting killed, with

Don’t even get me started on the police threatening or literally kidnapping people (particularly women, particularly women of color, particularly queer women, and most particularly queer women of color) with all kinds of charges in order to rape or otherwise sexually assault them. Of how many women of color and/or

Disclaimer: I only bring up the items stolen and the potential amount of money involved not because I think there’s some magical amount of theft that justifies the murder summary execution death by police of the suspects (due process? please?), but because it shows just how absurd this particular situation is.

The

Sometimes you have to point out just how bad a take the other side has though.

1. Complying with the police almost never helps, if they’ve decided they want to hurt you they will make up any excuse whatsoever (or not even bother).
2. The victims (yes, victims) were unarmed. In the military, they teach you that pulling a firearm on an unarmed civilian is unacceptable, even if they’re attacking you

On what planet do we think that firing literal bullets at someone is a response that is equitable or okay when theft is involved? What on earth? I don’t care how much they stole - they saw the audi, they had plates, they could have found other ways to chase this down that did not involve shooting anyone if they wanted

Hey Khemjin, you're a bootlicking piece of shit and I'm keeping you in the greys. Blow me. 

Don’t need Twitter to know killing a kid over pieces of paper is wrong, but nice try. I bet you’re just aching to put a few rounds in a child too from your comment history.

The police in the US have largely been given a blank check giving them the ‘authority’ to carry out a death sentence without due process with absolutely no consequences and for literally any reason they can make up.

That should be unacceptable. Period.

Oh if only it were just Twitter telling me the police were evil, and not the police literally having tried to kill me twice just for existing in their vicinity.

The police do a perfectly good job of telling absolutely everyone who isn’t willfully blind just how abominably awful they are.

They were kids. and guess what, if you pull out a pistol to shoot a non-violent offender, fuck you. I don’t give a fuck. these people wanna harp about how well trained they are? Do something else to stop them.

They don’t fuckin’ care. Cops have bigger budgets than God, and taxpayers foot the bill for their wrongdoing. They *literally* don’t give a shit.  

Is it known, whether Square Enix decided to sell or keep the “Hitman” IP?

They haven’t owned the Hitman IP for years. They let IO Interactive keep it when they split off.

Crystal Dynamics has been part of Square Enix since 2009, and they paid in the area of $90m (not accounting for inflation) for the studio. But that was before the big Tomb Raider reboots, which is part of the deal and another is on the way, and that’s just *one* part of this deal. It’s not quite a ‘fire sale’ kind of
