That’s me on work comp, but I grew up in Scottsdale and took classes at SCC for high school credit.

can’t believe somebody else knows who Artie is the mascot for.

S-dale represent!

My community college mascot was the beaver. As an 18-20-year old during my tenure there, I had a nonzero amount of giggles when it came up.

My community college alma mater mascot is Artie the Artichoke.

I name drop the shit out of mine. Because it was a community college that has my all time favorite mascot: Aardvarks. I still go down and buy the occasional t-shirt or cap, because you know, Aardvarks! :)

And with that impunity in mind, let’s not forget their job is so scary, and that being a cop isn’t even a choice.

He had not called the cops to his house that night. They were called to a different house in the area. You need to work on your reading comprehension and researching skills.

I put courage in quotation marks as that was the word the people defending her without question (and there were many) continued to use to defend her actions even during the election cycle. My point was never about her transition, it was only ever about the behaviour of those who did have a go at LGBT+ activists who…

Don’t even bother. I kept reminding people about that accident during the early days of her transition and the amount of excuses her supporters came up with “because she was so brave” was ENDLESS. Caitlyn Jenner was a terrible person before her transition and, near as I can tell, hasn’t gotten any better. She…

I’m still not sure she even cares about transgender issues really. Unless they affect her. And then she cares. But really isn’t that how most Republicans operate anyway?

You can transition the girl out the privileged American White Male ™, but never transition the privileged American White Male™ out of the girl.

Sheesh! You kill one person while driving recklessly and everyone thinks you’re a terrible person!

Stand your ground might not be a big deal here. You’re thinking of “Castle Doctrine” i think. Its pretty much law everywhere that if someone corners you in your house or is a direct threat to your family you can attack them. (This does not extend to shooting someone in the back stealing your TV.... usually)

The lives of these officers, who were doing their jobs, will never be the same and we must hold people accountable for their actions.

We’ll know the truth if the officers were wearing body cams.

We’ll also know the truth if somehow the video is ‘missing’ or the cameras weren’t turned on.

I think it’s totally reasonable that we hold a 19 year old civilian to a higher standard than we do our police officers. Totally reasonable.

EVERY WORD OF THIS.
