If you haven't sold yet and aren't retiring in the next 5 years, hold. Good buying opportunity.

Article says it occurred in 2023, so possibly same old case? This was nonetheless the first I've heard of it, so new to me.

But yes, what I'm highlighting here is high suspicion this is another case of wealth being above the law.

Article unfortunately falls short of identifying the most important aspects of this case. Who are the parents of the rapist, and how influential are they?

Words without actions are meaningless. They want to be held accountable, but only so long as they still own the team and still take in boatloads of money.

Yes, they are literally called Ninja swords in the legislation.

Yes, it is hilarious.

Even prior to the current political climate, police overreach in hospitals has happened multiple times. Usually involves police arresting a nurse/doctor for not doing what the police want (even if the medical staff are in the right). Medical staff loses pay for the day, patient harm does happen because of involuntary abandonment, and no punishment is metered for the police.

So yeah, doctors and nurses are quite helpless here.

Could ICE be liable for death or injury incurred from deporting a citizen?

Yes, but only if the court will uphold the law. And at that point, the punitive measures can't bring back life or brain function.

Yeah, don't fuck around with electricity. That shit is dangerous. Even those "muscle simulator" things that are marketed as massage options. Don't send any electricity throughout your body unintentionally. Everything in our body operates based on small amounts of electricity. Mess it up slightly and it might not operate again. Mess it up a lot like this, and you likely induce internal electric burns. Not fun.

That's a bingo.

Since they're probably chronically overworked, they're probably unhappy about it. And getting people floated to them who don't want to do work is a common issue with those kinds of units.

I'm a very nonconfrontational person, but if someone called to interrupt whatever I was doing to ask "I want to know how much I have to work" tomorrow, I wouldn't be happy.

Boondock Saints

Irish Brothers take a vigilante justice approach. Willem Dafoe is the detective pursuing them. Violence throughout, a touch of nudity for comedic purposes, overall a very enjoyable cult film.

They made a second one which isn't a terrible movie, but it missed the mark a bit and fell short of the first one, so that was disappointing.

Congress says

Congress is concerned

Congress warns

It is literally your job to prevent these concerns. Stop talking and do something. The old fucks who refuse to leave office have been collecting paychecks while sitting back and doing nothing, progressively giving away their power to the executive branch for the past ~20 years. Now they're concerned? Too little, too late. Either step up (but watch out for broken hips) or get out of the way.

Been too long since I've watched this movie. Time for another go!
