Try tomorrow. It is crashed from all the traffic now, and the shop is closed on Sundays anyway.

Who knew that the actual lifelong damage football players experience is from the whistles their coaches use and not the CTE! /s

Training is irrelevant. They are terrorizing the public. Prosecute them for every state law they are breaking.

Obligatory "following orders isn't an excuse" post. Remember that memos like this mean it is easier to prosecute both the officers that commit the crimes the supervisors that tell them to do it.

ICE & Border Patrol mess up the judicial process. When they deport people, that includes all types of people. Criminals avoiding punishment, victims of crimes that now cannot press charges against the criminals we are stuck with, witnesses that would help catch & prosecute criminals here, etc.

Assuming 1 is code for using firearms, people should only do this if they are alone in the house (no one else to get hurt by accident) and prepared to die by the returning fire from ICE goons.

Every time a Democrat says they understand why parents are concerned about pronouns or trans girls playing sports or whatever the fuck, they are campaigning for the party that will deliver on the affirmed “good“ that is transphobia

If you go back far enough, SB county used to include a lot more area. Also, I believe SB Island is physically closer to LA county than SB county. So, it makes sense that at one point it was in LA county. But I am not a geographer nor historian, so don't quote me on that.

Of course, even without all of that, they were in the wrong. It just adds to the level of anger it brings that they were not prosecuted for so long.

Great reporting. It is so frustrating that three men who had all committed crimes (domestic violence, DUI, brandishing a gun, etc) worse than $12 theft thought it was at all ok to take it upon themselves to exact their idea of justice this kid. Especially since the theft was already prevented!

No, not balloon-sized. Wedge-shaped is clearly what they are looking for 😂
