Sadly SUV and oversized trucks are all too common here. And universally the worst drivers on the road. Gotta love when a tank stops in the crosswalk and honks at you like you’re the asshole for walking infront of them. What I wouldn’t give to force all those idiots to trade out for smart cars, the roads around here would be a lot safer.
Also most people who want to drive EVs want to do so as a cost saving measure. ICEs can go for 25K where I haven’t see an EV in my local area go for less than 40k.
I would love an EV but can’t find anything in my price range, even used ones that optimistically get 70 miles per charge cost more than what a new ICE would cost. I can’t even make a round trip to my parents and back on that.
Nice strawman. Surely race was the only differing factors in these two cases, and it had nothing to do with with the fact that Kizer traveled 40 miles to shoot her abuser after escaping him months ago (that his convinction failing is the real injustice here) and took a plea-deal to avoid a life sentence for premeditated murder, where as Hughes lived with her abuser, was beaten the night of killing, called the cops, watcher her abuser talk the cops down, beat her again, starved her, raped her, threatened her and her children and burned her school books before she killed him and took her children to the police station to turn herself in.
But yes please insist these two cases are like for like.
I don’t think this kind of civil suit can result in jailtime. But depending on what strategy her lawyers pursue, they could argue the unauthorized use of her IP resulted in his campaign raising additional money, and thus be legal grounds for them to empty the campaign warchest and take away funds his campaign needs to operate just a few months before the election.
Trump about to learn what it looks like when an actual billionaire who hires quality lawyers (and pays them!) takes legal action against someone. For a guy who abused the courts for decades to bully people into doing what he wants, he sure is getting bent over the stand a lot these days.
Normally Im all ACAB fuck the system. But the evidence in the case and facts make this ruling just even if it seems unfair.
Her abuser was a piece of shit, no denying that. And while the world is probably a better place with him dead, the means by which it was accomplished was illegal.
If the court had done anything but find her guilty, it just sends a signal to any would be vigilantes that if justice system didn’t give you an outcome you wanted quickly as you wanted, then it’s okay to take justice into your own hands.
While I do hope she gets a pardon and those who didn’t take her pleas seriously when she tried to report him become subject to thorough investigation and permanently removed from the criminal justice system, we absolutely can not go back to frontier justice of people killing each other because the local sheriff and deputies didn’t want to or know how to deal with it.
Sounds like by his own grading scale he is a dismal failure not worth what his title gets paid.
Sadly you’re not allowed to shoot off duty cops.
Pretty, wish my apartment looked like this. On the flip side, couple dozen wind turbines on the horizon out my bedroom window
My point was Beto had a real shot at unseating Cruz and he fucked it all by repeatedly going on about how he wants to ban guns and never taking the chance to walk it back. You want gun control thats fine, but for the love of god do not campaign on it.
As long as Allred isn’t dumb enough to repeatedly say he will ban all guns multiple times while campaigning in the state with the highest level of gun ownership in the union he might just win.
Weclome back Second Pacific Squadon. Think Japan will accept an invite by the US to run some exercises around Puerto Rico?
I was gonna make fun of the French but then I remembered their nuclear doctrine is to lob a 250kt yield warhead as a warning shot.
Surely it will be safe to stop by the Amazon and pick up a few local critters to boost morale. Say what does venomous mean?
The only thing really different about gen z fashion I’ve noticed is barely anyone wears jeans.
As a US Veteran: Fuck. That.
These are not US Service Members, they did not take an Oath to the US and they do not serve the US interests. Even disregarding the atrocities currently happening by the IDF (who are clearly not understanding what the D in their title is for) none of these members deserve any recognition or compensation from the US govt.
Like we needed further proof how far off American ideals the far right is.
The poor thing starved to death
They did answer the question. Anyone who tries it without some SERIOUS protection would be utterly annihilated once word got around they intentionally induced nuclear detonations. Using nukes of any kind is a major taboo in universe, everyone is able to do it but when you break the taboo nothing is stopping your enemy from repaying in kind.
