Ditto here. Especially now that they’re going in hard on making curriculum political
The bad (typically gun related) things happening in America thread
- Thread starter calodo2003

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
It's almost literally the exact opposite of how the union and collective bargaining work here. Genuinely shocking to me. It's not like you guys haven't got a history of real union struggles (mining comes to mind), so it's diabolical that they forced that situation.
It's only a matter of time until armed Pinkerton guards are patrolling the schools looking inwards, not outwards.
Public sector workers lost their right to unionize and collectively bargain here due to the fallout from a 1968 hospital worker strike in Charleston… so yeah, South Carolina hasn’t been too kind to “labor” for a very long time

Don't know if it's already been covered but a librarian who has armed people show up at her house because she allows diverse books in her library is just insane.
I've run into this before, especially with the HPV vaccine. Parent's will say they do not want to "encourage premarital sex" by having their daughters vaccinated. I would usually respond by asking if they were worried that vaccinated their daughter against tetanus would encourage her to shove rusty nails in her arm.

That's some childhood trauma right there. Great way to prepare them for some adult trauma, I suppose.

That's the 'cop' we deserve. Not a gun in sight. Simple MMA move and the offender is appended.
Was the lady at the end screaming at the CFA worker?
I can’t tell, to be honest. I would hope she’s yelling at the guy on the ground, but it is Florida.
Watching that, I wish even more that the learning curriculum and off-patrol training programs in North America include more of those non-lethal takedown and disarming techniques for our cops.
That was a bystanding mom and I think she was yelling at the carjacker. The CFA worker was probably trying to calm her down as well.
I thought so at first too, but the way she phrased things made it sound weird as she said “you scared her”. You are probably right though.
And it’s “his pleasure”
Likely a HS kid too. Would you take him on your team? Seemed to take that guy with ease.
Ha, my first thought was “hmm, wonder if he wrestles”

Dafuq, South Carolina? So much for tourism then.
Best comment below though.

Best comment below though.
If they think that thongs are bad, they have not seen nude beaches around Saint-Tropez yet.

KILLED FOR WALKING A DOG
The mundanity and insanity of gun death in America
There is no particular reason people should care about the shooting of Isabella Thallas, which is why, as far as I can tell, not many people did. She was the only casualty, and there was no mystery as to who shot her, and in a country in which guns kill more than 40,000 people every year—well, who has the time to stop and mourn for just one of them? But there was something about this killing, on the side of a Denver street on a sunny June morning in 2020, that captured my attention. I couldn’t stop thinking about what happened to Bella Thallas. Maybe it was her age—about that of my own daughters—or maybe it was the specific circumstances of her murder, which were both mundane and completely insane.

That was a tough fecking read, but I thank you for posting it.
I felt the same. heartbreaking story and its just insanity that this resulted in a death and a life-changing injury when it should have been nothing.

The gun owner should have been held responsible too. If you want to walk around like Rambo then be responsible and secure your weapons.
