Probably stolen from a responsible gun owner who kept it in their glovebox, for safety. But we don’t treat responsible gun owners as if they are responsible for actually retaining firearms. If a pharmacy loses track of a couple of opioid pills there’s an investigation and a chance for the pharmacist to lose their…

The Asian workers were brought to the US over a small amount of time looking for work; they were not chained into the bottoms of ships. Most were from China. As a result they retained a common language, common cultural background, and family ties to reach to for support for a period of a decade of forced labor, over…

“When the bodies were discovered, the car was still on, but the engine wasn’t running.”

Paperwork - at least to the extent I see no reference at all to parts manufacturing, just falsification and forgery of part certifications. 

Want a shoveled out spot? Get a shovel and shovel out your own. 

14 year old me would have peeled that phone loose and taken it with me if it didn’t get fumbled down the toilet.

Yes - but Biden didn’t flatten the box -and- put it in the wrong bin!

Found the slave holder.

John Brown was an abolitionist trying to get the slaves to fight for their freedom. Putting effort behind it he killed several of those running forced labor camps. His were essentially the first shots fired in the US Civil war that killed a lot more slave holders. 

There is a difference between movie magic and a company normalizing stupid behavior.

Since a car (or any mass) doubles in kinetic energy for every 50% increase in speed, it takes little imagination to see that giving everyone else more time to take effective evasive actions and not have their vehicle obliterated at 1/2 the energy is an improved condition.

I gave up on Big Macs when they moved into being yet another slimewich. Burger King did that as well; putting far too much and making the middle of the sandwich slide out or ooze out. 

She already did Whisky Tango Foxtrot.

Suspending the license does squat as do penalties for not having insurance. Even the threat of prison won’t stop them as many of them know they are already on the path to prison. They have already decided they do not care about society at large, laws, other people, or their own possible deaths. From lengthy…

ADS-B Out broadcasts the locations of equipped planes, no ground radar required. These planes are required to have ADS-B Out. They are not required to have ADS-B In to show other aircraft and neither is the airport. It is nearly criminal that the FAA has refused to act appropriately. 

There are so many affected cars that the ones Kia/Hyundai have addressed are a drop in the bucket. On top of which, because so few have been addressed, the ones that have still get broken into, the steering column destroyed, and the fact that it is unsuccessful still leaves thousands of dollars in damage. 

They cut them open to see what was inside. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-03-06/how-lapd-blew-up-a-neighborhood

Holy crap. 

If you put a firecracker into a trashcan and put the lid on you have built an IED.

Not that I would believe the police who blew a neighborhood to smithereens and didn’t weigh what they put into the explosion system, but the bulk was handled by loading it by fork truck to take away, not a particularly smart move with truly dangerous items, but they knew it was all sufficiently safe. Larger amounts…
