I appreciate this information, thank you!

The dissonance of “dogs are furbabies! just 4-legged children!” etc etc until there’s a cop show on where they sic the dog on the person running and then it’s “hahaha they sent the dog after him! that’ll teach him to run!” boggles my mind.

No, it’s not in the linked NPR article. Do you have a link? Might as well go get the kleenex now.

I’ve been saying for a couple of years that any lawsuits should be paid out of the officers’ retirement funds. That will motivate them to clean house and police own more than any legislation, body cams, etc.

Agreed. Use canines where you need their noses. Tracking, sniffing narcotics or explosives, etc.

Full disclosure, I’m a white woman. I know how I have had white male doctors just ignore me when I’ve gone to them with issues.

Entrenched structural racism. Black women are just “insert whatever dogwhistle term you want,” so s he’s not that serious about the symptoms she’s complaining about. And so forth.

Can I still hang around if my fingers are stained with Cheez-Its instead of Cheetos? I like Cheez-Its more.

McDonald’s could probably argue the preservatives in their food are what kept him alive this long.

Mine, too!

Hey BrothasKeeper, refresh your page. Sometimes this platform loads wrong and that happens.

All being insecure does for sexual assault/rape/harassment is make people believe you even less.

Hey now, there is no reason to be so mean.

I had a neighbor with a preteen daughter and they qualified for $37/week. That’s not going to go very far, especially when one of them has Celiac.

“Where’s my cookie? Don’t I get an ally cookie? I need to still make this about meeeeeeeeee!”

Right? Clearly their pronoun use is a capital offense to the poster here.

I mean we all know he can’t spell Kim Jong-un correctly, right? Hence resorting to Rocket Man.
