Did anybody call the St Paul police? Were the police already there on site? What is happening to residents when they call the emergency number? Are the dispatchers telling them what to do? This is missing from the news story. Why isn’t npr asking these questions? Where are the police?

Why are the police in Minnesota, in this case St. Paul, why are they not doing anything? Couldn’t they at least require ICE to produce a warrant, and if the police would put themselves in between ice and these innocent people and ice had to arrest or tried to arrest the Minnesota police that would totally change the game, wouldn’t it?

Could you imagine how insane that story would be? It would make the trump administration look really awful to have to justify police officers being arrested by ICE. There’s never been a better opportunity for the police to rehabilitate their public image.

At the very least, the police could be there recording what’s going on. In this particular case, they could have documented how ice took this guy out to the middle of nowhere and were taking his photos.

Ice would be behaving very differently if the police would get involved and be willing to get arrested, that would be the hero cop. The police unions would get involved and it would totally change the game.

If just one good, hero cop put himself or herself in between ice and an innocent American citizen that police officer would become famous, and they would be known and written about in the history books for bringing America back from the brink of totalitarianism.

I really wish trigger discipline was a public service announcement. You know those commercials they used to put on the tv all the time about stop, drop, and roll for fire safety. I wish there was one for trigger discipline.

If you practice trigger discipline, it takes care of most the other rules. In a high stress or excitable situation, if you go into fight or flight mode, the first thing you do is make a fist without even realizing it. You don’t want your finger to be hovering over the trigger when this happens.

I wonder how many lives would be saved if this was repeated enough to be made common knowledge.

I don’t think I could have lasted even that long with the Remaster, because from what I’ve seen from clips I’ve watched, it’s ugly. It’s not beautiful like the original game. The characters are really, really creepy looking; I hate the way they look.The original 2006 version is like playing a painting that’s come to life.

The only thing I like about the Remaster is that it inspired me to start a new game of the old original Oblivion. I’m going on three weeks now. And every time I turn it back on, I love it.

Long live the original Oblivion.

Say your side is guilty without saying your side is guilty.

They should contact IJ, the Institute of Justice.They will represent people free of charge on any kind of issue where the government is trampling on people’s rights, and their goal is to get cases into the higher courts and to the supreme court.

This is just awful that this happened to these women. It feels so violating to have somebody rob your house and it must feel even worse when the government does it, especially when you know that there’s literally an amendment that’s supposed to stop them from doing what they did.

They put beef jerky in bags that are exactly the same bags that they put dog and cat treats in. Whenever I go to the store and I’m waiting in line and the bags of beef jerky are there, I usually pick one up and start shaking it to see if any men come running. Do you want a treat, you want a treat?

And the warrant needs to be specific, not general. The warrant is required to be for a specific place and a specific person or specific thing.

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

How else do you interpret what he says other than that he’s threatening to kill her, since that’s what’s been happening the last couple of days, one woman is dead and two people are injured. We all know about qualified immunity, but are police and ice agents actually allowed to threaten to murder people? Are there no exceptions to qualified immunity when it comes to threatening to kill people?

Or we’ve already been to them and ruined them with wars and pollution and doomsday weapons and moved on until we’re on the last habitable one…

It sucks to be a widow or widower looking for support groups to help you cope with the death of your spouse, and the only available groups are at churches who then turn the group into a mini church sermon. These churches should not have tax free status when they won’t even offer the most basic help for communities without trying to convert vulnerable people to their cult.

Kudos to your truly unpopular opinion. I disagree but wouldn’t fight you on it. But what are your thoughts on nuts and caramel? That’s a hill I would die on.

Maybe it was mostly the eggs. More than one person that lived to be the oldest shared that they ate eggs regularly: Emma Morano, Violet Brown, and Susannah Mushatt Jones. Emma Morano said she ate three eggs every day. https://www.sbs.com.au/food/article/the-worlds-oldest-woman-reveals-the-food-she-swears-by/elxvgsctf

This is so freaking cute that I had to zoom in and then I saw the little feetsies sticking out!

Thanks for making me smile

Doesn’t this situation call for companies that could decide to block AI and double down on the human workforce? And those companies who do would be rewarded by all of us who hate AI and they would succeed by the supposed rules of the free market. Why isn’t any company stepping up to compete against AI run companies? Wouldn’t it be an amazing opening to compete and win?

Also, it wasn’t talked about in the article, but one of the big arguments for why this AI thing has to be so inevitable is that we have to compete with China. They think we have to start this race with China, to try to win AI.

First of all, I think we might have already lost the race. Second of all, even if you don’t agree that we’ve already lost. What if by embracing AI, China and all the other countries are destroyed by it? What if it just makes so many mistakes and errors that it just destroys their economy and destroys their country?And then the countries who were cautious about AI would be fine.We’d be the winners, not having succumbed to this ridiculous urge to use everything AI.

People always forget that anything and everything hooked up to a network is hackable. I’ll say it again. Everything hooked up to a network is hackable.Including this shitty AI stuff. If we put everything into AI, even if we win, another country could just hack us. And screw everything up. The bottom line is.There is a space to say no to AI and succeed.

I know I’m not that super articulate about this, but I would love to see somebody else write about these ideas with more finesse than I have, so that we could all start talking about this more and stop letting this inevitable push to AI just keep going without pushing back.

It’s so cute. It’s like an amalgam of all the rodents: mouse, rat, guinea pig, hamster, marmot, tribble.

I’m just here wondering why she has extra fingers.

I thought this was a company that went out of business years ago, because people were seeing so many movies it caused them to lose too much money.

My translator is saying Flaftenvaften is a Danish term meaning, “the evening of the fluttering” lol
