Absolutely, fuck the police, but are you also teaching your children to never call an ambulance or the fire department? Are we also saying fuck paramedics and firefighters? Because, again, it's the same goddamn number for both, and you don't usually get the other services without the murder hobos tagging along.

Maybe we can focus on the murder hobos and not blaming a child for the actions of the murder hobos.

~~Yeah, 12 year old should know that calling 911 for help is literally murder! /s

He's a literal child and was scared. He called for help. It's gross to blame him or even imply he should know calling for help on the same line you call for fire and ambulances will cause an attempted murder.~~

ETA: I don't know where I came up with him being 12, but the point about calling for help and the murder hobos being the same line as the helpers still stands. Blaming a 19 year old for calling 911 because the cops decided to try to murder someone is still gross.

......are you okay? Like, I get that you don't like dogs and are frustrated with bad dog owners, but like, that seems a bit intense even for an Internet comment.

Or, most likely, both.

I had to shut it off. To everyone else's credit they hammered him about it, but I cannot keep watching something that platforms....that.

Reading this made me think the same, but it's Circle K, not Triple K. Minor existential crisis averted....I hope.

Unfortunately a lot of the mods to make it happen are designed to not be noticed by the DMV inspectors. It's a whole industry committed to industriously dumping as much soot into the atmosphere. If only that industriousness could be used for good; good doesn't make as much money or "own the libs" as much as obnoxiously killing the Earth, I guess.

Short answer, it's not. It's effectively legal because the circle Venn Diagram of those who would roll coal and have Punisher/Back the Blue stickers on their trucks and absolutely zero enforcement, but it's TECHNICALLY illegal.

So....you're arguing that Autistic people are more likely to become Nazis? Because that seems like a stretch......

In the US, universities have a significant number of graduate degrees along with undergraduate degrees while colleges offer (almost) exclusively undergraduate degrees. My alma mater became a university shortly before I started because they started offering enough graduate degrees.
