PSA

If you have a weak stomach or, like me, traumatic images replay over and over involuntarily in your brain after seeing them just once, I strongly recommend you *do not* watch the videos going around right now of the protesting marine's arm being broken by security and senator Sheehy. You can plainly see the moment it happens, and it's very unsettling.

Consider this an independently proffered content warning.

They don't know it, but this article is also about autism.

It seems to me that Trump is daring other world leaders to put him out of our misery.

It's actually super common for C corps, I think. They call them "Delaware corps" because that seems to be the place everyone registers in. I'm guessing there's a lot less of a common standard for cooperatives, though.

This part isn't clear. Are these durations in parentheses time limits before they are dropped?

Started my new job today, but still need to feed my kids in the interim until I can get paid. We currently have $13 to cover dinner for the 4 of us tonight. We could use a boost, please!

@robcinos @bmacDonald94 I'll be content if he is in prison for life, either way.

@robcinos @bmacDonald94 he'll have to sit there and listen because nobody will listen to him. Can you imagine how much it would suck for him to not be able to participate as someone who thinks he's the center of the universe? lol

@robcinos @bmacDonald94 Give him a TV so he can see everybody hating on him. lol

I could use a boost. We need $295.22 for our car insurance, due tomorrow.

Not long ago, the horrible people who lived across the street from me called the police because a Black man had mooned them. I saw the man leaving, after this supposedly happened. When the cops arrived, another Black man, who had nothing to do with it whatsoever, was standing on the sidewalk watching the hubbub. I had to tell one white officer 3 different times that the man standing on the sidewalk was not involved, and yet he *still* persisted in harassing him. The other officers (about 5 of them) just ignored his behavior, despite having also heard me repeatedly set the record straight. If there was any doubt left in me that the local police department was full of racists, it died that day.

TL:DR: It's exactly what I've been saying. You can generate rough drafts easily, but it takes human minds and hands to carry the project to completion.

"I just saw a video of more than six masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents? How many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?"

Frey called on the ICE operation to end.

"I'm done being told that our community members are responsible for the vitriol in our streets. I'm done being told that our local elected officials are solely responsible for turning down the temperature. Just yesterday, we saw 15,000 people peacefully protesting in the streets, speaking out, standing up for their neighbors. Not a single broken window, not a single injury," Frey said.

Also, they will hype up the fact that he had a gun on him. Let's be clear: The guy had a license to carry, and his only prior run-ins with the law were traffic tickets. This is directly sourced from the local PD.

He was fucking *helping* people, and they murdered him.

My own opinion: I wouldn't be surprised if there was an element of retaliation to this, after yesterday's mass protests.

Stella Carlson said that before the shooting, the man was helping vehicle traffic get around the area where ICE agents and observers had started to gather.

“The gentleman I was standing next to was focused on helping people who were coming into Nicollet Avenue understand that they needed to take it slow and helping them get through. The ICE agents approached us, told us to back up, back up. I'm not even sure why we were helping them, if anything. And I got on the snow bank, and next thing I knew, they shot him,” Carlson said.

From the first linked article:

"O'Hara said he's a 37-year-old white man, a Minneapolis resident. They believe he's an American citizen. He is a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.

O'Hara believes more than one law enforcement officer fired their weapons.

O'Hara said they have not been told official reports of what led to the shooting, but he has seen the video."

O'Hara is the Minneapolis chief of police.
