This is the aftermath of a battle. Technically what you are looking at is gore. The result of body fluids indiscriminately leaking out of a human body after being shot to pieces. Soak it up. Until we ban semiautomatic assault weapons, you will have more. Way more.

If I were his partner, I’d never ride with him again. Any police department that tolerates what has to be flagrant violations of policy and procedure has serious problems. Thanks to a severe lack of judgement this could have ended in tragedy for all three of them.

So much wrong here… to start with, the moment he put his hand on the weapon he jeopardized his partner and himself because he took a hand off the suspect. And then, his muzzle discipline as he drew the weapon endangered his partner again. Oh, and brandishing it risks lack of retention…

You can see this was not the first strike on the plant. Ukraine is not just doing one and done attacks. These are strategic missions with clearly defined targets and goals. They mean to shut down Russian economy and capacity to wage war. This is conceivable because their economy is so fragile.

The VIN number can be used to look up the car’s registration to verify the plates issued to the vehicle. If they don’t match the plates on the vehicle, a crime has been committed. It may even be possible to determine the owner of the vehicle in question. You know what to do. 3/3

So, in future, when photographing their plates, be sure to also capture the vehicle VIN number. This is printed on a sticker on the door frame, visible when the driver side door is opened, and on the dash under the bottom of the window screen on the driver side. 2/4

Reports have come to my attention that ICE agents are switching license plates on the vehicles they use in their snatch and grab operations. This is, no doubt, to make it harder to identify the owners or renters of said vehicles. This is illegal. 1/3

Economists would beg to differ. Only wealthy, and ultra wealthy, folks would rebrand class distinctions as a “social” construct. When your income, as a class, is above the poverty line but still precarious, financial distinctions are less about social status and more about job markets and wages.

Russia is very much feeling the effects of Ukraine’s campaign against refineries and railways. This is their way of saying it won’t stop them. The problem for them is that taking out parts suppliers for coffee makers (and apartment buildings) isn’t going to ding Ukraine’s war footing.

Uh, no. Abolish ICE. Immigration enforcement should be a strictly civil matter. We don’t need cops kidnapping people for overstaying their visas, or for having the wrong color skin. If people commit crimes, only then should they be criminalized. By local LEOs. Not Border Patrol or ICE.

That’s as may be. But DC is really a city state. Other cities enjoy being part of a larger state with representation and resources. DC is not just the Nation’s Capital, it’s a Congressional playground. It needs to be free of that yoke to be it’s own state before you can be secure in your home.

Military etiquette requires you to salute when covered (wearing a hat) and not otherwise. In mufti, a nod or gesture are acceptable. If you feel you must salute in mufti (such as at a flag raising ceremony) then you place your right hand over your heart. You salute the rank, not the man.

What Hagerty purposely overlooks is that the census determines not just the number of representatives, but also is key to any number of state and federal programs and services. Undocumented immigrants can’t vote, but still pay taxes for services (roads, sewage, etc.) that need to be funded.

Ok, this just so full of stupid. Hagerty is referring to a compromise clause in the constitution that was arrived at because slave states wanted more representatives in the House. Free states rightly saw counting slaves as a hypocritical power grab and forced a compromise.

The long time commander of the DCNG was replaced just before the order to deploy. There is no emergency, so there is no mission. UCMJ defines that as an illegal order, as it violates the constitution. National Guard brass will have to answer for this. You’d think they’d have some foresight.
