Did a quick company search for Apex Development, Inc on bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov. then did a search for the company owner on Google, and literally court case after court case was coming up for them. The Calabasas address is a UPS store and mail box (not bad, but for a company active since about 1997 and not really…

The point being black people who blatantly disobey police ‘commands’ typically don’t live long enough to explain their mumble jumble.

They are both errors on the prosecution’s part, but also things like deferred findings, suspended fines, and even prosecutors (and judges) simply dismissing the case because they don’t want to deal with the SC bull. When you’ve got a calendar of over a hundred traffic tickets to dispose of in a couple hours, it’s…

Yep have had interactions with a couple and they insist that people have won these arguments, of course the media hides this, I suspect any wins that may have happened are because of some error on the prosecutions part

I can only assume there is an echo chamber online somewhere with [made up] stories about how someone put the law in their place or some such nonsense. Or they simply believe that it doesn’t matter and that its their duty to be “right” and suffer.  I agree 120% with the gist of your argument.  If it works, it works, if…

Is it really any different to teasing Thanos and the Infinity Stones, which Marvel was doing all throughout the original films? I imagine there are some big plans to have the X-Men involved in an upcoming multiversal war, and if the groundwork weren’t laid I’m sure the AV Club would write some kind of “Where the hell…

If he serves all that time behind bars, I’d say it seems to fit the crime. But he’ll likely get out sooner. There is also civil remedies for the victims: they can sue the crap out of the guy provided he has anything to go after, also his future earnings.

I’m...at a loss for words. If they worked at the same place and wore the same uniform, wouldn’t it just make more sense to swap name-tags? Why the whole uniform?

That’ll just be punishing those old folks. I’m sure he’d grift them, steal their medicine and abuse them when no one is looking.

I’m not sure if we should give him more chances to commit elder abuse. Something tells me 5 years in prison isn’t going to make him a softer, kinder person.

That said, I’d be pretty O.K. if he never got his driver’s license back.  Yeah, he can and probably would still drive without it, but it will ramp up the penalties…

Lindsey Graham literally called on Israel to level Gaza. Nikki Haley asked Israel to “finish them.” These are literal calls for genocide, but that’s totally cool with Congress. Fuck these hypocrites.

It’s wild that, according to the header pic, there’s clearly a gap built for a pedestrian gate but they just filled it in with more fence.

I’m Jewish, and what she said is simply an expression of the idea that Palestinian residents from the area who were forced out by literal gunpoint during the nakba and during subsequent expulsions would like to return to the land in which they and their ancestors were up.

The notion that this phrasing is in any way…

lol,. Hamas went after military targets, too. That was what they were after. They just happened to also hit several civilian areas as well because Israel surrounds the world’s largest open air prison with which they have been at war since 2006 with civilian settlements. Yet somehow the phrase “human shields” never…

The responses in this thread make me very concerned.

So Palestinians deserve to be executed without due process? Palestinians deserve to have their property confiscated with no due process? Palestinians deserve to be uprooted and displaced, on potential pain of death, without due process? Palestinians don’t deserve basic civil political rights?

Yeah, and the last time America got attacked, we reacted super rationally and definitely haven’t spent the following two decades regretting the seemingly endless bloodshed.

When I’m attacked I kill thousands and thousands of people who had nothing to do with it.  That’s basic self-defense.

If Israel didn’t kill Palestinian civilians with such impunity, I would have no cause to criticize them. But 4,000 children have been slaughtered by Israel in a month, in response to an attack that killed 1,400 Israeli civilians. If the latter is savage butchery, what is the former? Historically in this conflict,…

I mean, even if you disagree with her. And believe the phrase is a call for the end of the state of Israel; so what.
