OK. When I was a kid my aunt worked at Seattle animal control and they had rules about how long strays could stay before they had to be put down. So ones with kittens would get their papers pulled and they'd live at my house until they could be adopted.
One time a litter came in with a baby raccoon.

Imagine if we actually made it functionally illegal to kill people with your car instead of the moderately unpleasant set of paperwork and slightly increased car insurance that it is now?

It says that the police are perfectly fine with shooting mall goers because it makes it clear that the police dont care about stopping the shooter because ALL their focus is on making mall goers more agile.

Imagine a situation where every day a guy walks into a mall with a gun and kills someone at random and the police departments ONLY solution was to produce an ad campaign that continually and ONLY gave advice for how not get shot when you visit the mall.
What message does that send to the shooter?

The mantra of internet trolls when told that the proof is a google search away.
Piss off.

Oh they read it but all they saw was 'blah blah blah, I want to drive 50 in a school zone so everyone get the fuck out of my way if you want to live"

It's absolutely giving them permission because drivers KNOW that they will not be punished. If someone keeps yelling at the victims instead of the perpetrators then eventually the perps get the message that the focus isnt on them.

Like I said, link to where they are also reminding drivers to be more careful.
Quite literally NOBODY said anything about "either-or."

Nobody is saying that the reminder is bad. What's bad is that they are not even trying to make the same effort toward drivers.

Thank you for proving that the city produced no such campaign by linking me to a state level campaign that ALSO didnt address the special situation with kids on halloween.

the old phrase used when dealing with the middle east, particularly post 9/11 was always "links to terror."

If your college roommate has an uncle who has donated to a charity and that charity's funded a clinic that treated a gunshot wound in gaza YOU are 3 hops from Hamas.

Cool. Now show us that city's reminder post about how drivers might want to slow down since there will be more kids around after dark. Having trouble? It's a trick question because pretty much ZERO governments remind drivers to be better. It's always about making it the pedestrians responsibility.

There isnt a single active A-10 pilot that was born before their airframe was produced. The YOUNGEST A-10 is almost 42 years old.
There are currently at least 5 aircraft better at CAS than an A-10.
Meal Team 0 MFers just like it because of the sound.

They killed it because the YOUNGEST A-10 is 41 years old. There isn't a single A-10 pilot currently flying one that is older than his airframe.
The AF hated the A-10 because they never felt close air support was their job.

The driver saw that I saw it and asked me to call the cops. I laughed and said no and walked away.

A few months ago I watched a driver bump a cyclist at an intersection for not moving so the driver could make an illegal right.

The cyclist calmly pulled a spring loaded window breaker from his pocket and shattered the drivers side of the windshield as the light turned green and then rode away.

Just a quick reminder that Sean is NOT a Nazi. Sean is the guy that cleans the Nazi’s clubhouse is hopes they might not torture him before they kill him.

We love to say “dont judge a book by its cover” but we DO. A family friend does fantasy and romance cover design and a company she does work for figured out books where she did the covers were outselling other books like 2:1.

As soon as it became clear that they “owned” every photo I posted I deleted my accounts.

Shit shit shit!!!
I just texted my kid about a NEW fact I learned about WWII.

I’m officially an old man.
