Wow-I searched for STL mutual aid and your skeet with no replies isn’t encouraging.

We had these and the only saving grace was you had to lob them into an arc and you couldn’t throw them accurately like a dart (we of course tried) I caught one to the shoulder once for a nasty flesh wound. Boomers wanted GenX dead from an early age

NEW: Victims of excessive force, retaliatory investigations, unlawful property destruction, and other abuses of power by federal actors have scant options re: compensatory damages. But @uwlawdemocracy.bsky.social's Harrison Stark argues that states can offer meaningful relief for these violations.

Price may be too low amd street level networks are probably heavily disrupted temporarily but otherwise…yea, certainly less risky at the top

Step 1: disband ICE
Step 2: give ICE's entire bloated budget to the IRS

Today is the 112th anniversary of the Senghenydd colliery disaster.

The blast on October 14, 1913, killed 439 men and boys, with another dying during rescue operations. It was, and remains, the worst coal mining disaster in British history and also the sixth worst in the world.
