And they are probably understaffed on cops as well--after all, the only reason these guys were caught is that an off duty cop happened to see them nearly hit a school bus.

The thing this article curiously leaves out: the dude driving came feet from hitting a school bus as it was unloading kids at the end of the school day. The cop who took the photo above was off duty, but saw the guy nearly obliterate a whole group of kids trying to cross the street.

Public shaming is ok for me, yep. I mean, these two shot up with a kid in the car, and the dude driving very nearly hit a school bus as it was unloading kids, because he had just shot up. So, yeah...not really feeling bad about sending some shame their way.

So, yes, bad technology but also a near-obsession with cramming as much stuff as possible into the shot.

Because every school district in the country is wrestling with short-term financial problems that overwhelm the time and energy needed to do serious long-range planning and thinking.

They ALL sound like old porno actors. “Tad Dickman?” “Cord Beemer?” “Carson Tinker?”

When was the last time they had to send for an ambulance when a dude tore a knee ligament? That’s a weird bit of info, sort of concerning.

“Kardashev Type II civilization”

Something about the mountain of money, hookers, and coke awaiting him if he can pull it off.
