    And the pro-gun lobby wonders why there's such an anti-gun sentiment.

    After @seattletimes reported a Tacoma police officer now facing felony charges for Manuel Ellis's death had a psychological break at the police academy and was still allowed to graduate, Washington State eyes more aggressive removal of academy recruits.

    https://twitter.com/pmalonedc/status/1603472645949108224

    Why the fuck did it take the Seattle Times reporting on it before they started checking whether recruits who go “mental condition black” and start blasting unarmed suspects in virtual training should graduate or not?

    That’s a rhetorical question btw. We all know the answer is ACAB.

    Their term for shooting unarmed folk is "mental condition black" and there's absolutely no connotations there, nosiree.

    Dateline Alabama: Three police cars are summoned to arrest two women, ages 85 and 61, for trapping and spaying/neutering feral cats.

    Here's a picture of the hardened criminals:

    And here's the best quote from Columbo while he was arresting them:

    "Ma'am, you're on the property. You've got cat food. It's pretty clear what your intent is."

    More details, plus video of their "disorderly conduct," at the link:

    The CNN piece cites to the Indy Star piece, and the CNN piece doesn't make it sound IMO like the cops were anything but lucky.

    This is interesting. Cop is in a high-speed pursuit of a stolen car, runs a red light, hits a car, killing two passengers, and severely injuring a third. The cop has been arrested and charged with negligent homicide and negligent injury. The guy driving the stolen car has been charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with the deaths.

    So, the lesson learned is, don't go in for petty crime, because a cop can just kill people, and you'll get the charges added on.
    If you go in for crime, go full tilt super villain.
    Because fuck everything.

    People already think that way, and that's why disarming yourself is stupid. We are perpetually sitting a two-week supply chain interruption away from thunderdomes and warlords.

    And you're going to be a warlord, right? You know, just like Stewart Rhodes. You're definitely not going to be some random NPC who gets killed for his chickens, right? And you've got evidence to back this up, right?
