    Or if they get the wrong address.

    Or if they don’t like your skin color.

    Or if they don’t like your tone.

    Or if they just generally feel like it while their body cams are “malfunctioning”.

    Basically, if you want to kill people with impunity, become a police officer in the US.











  • The young man sporting the white mask and a white hoodie in widely shared video clips is Edan On, a local 18-year-old high school senior, his mother confirmed to CNN, though she later said he denies being at UCLA.

    His mother must be so proud 🙄

    “Edan went to bully the Palestinian students in the tents at UCLA and played the song that they played to the Nukhba terrorists in prison!” his mother boasted in Hebrew on Facebook, referencing Hamas. She circled an image of him that had been broadcast on the local news.

    Oh, I guess that she is.






  • I get that it started 60 years ago with white flight and was exasperated 40 years ago with the consolidation of major changes, but why has their been no progress in correcting this? Why are zoning laws not being updated? Why do grocery store chains think inner cities are riskier? Why are new stores, like the referenced Whole Foods, not lasting? Why the focus on supermarkets instead of smaller neighborhood grocery stores that don’t have the same logistic issues?

    Those questions are not directed at you. They are more a representation my disappointment and disillusionment. Thank you for the reply.

    I guess that I was hoping that there would be more current information and not just an article about how nobody cares so nothing has been done in more than half a century.



  • Several hours? Those people are parked and charging their car while they are doing something else. It takes about 15 minutes to get 200 miles of range at a Tesla charging station. People sitting in their cars, waiting will be there for far shorter periods of time.

    A vast majority of charging also takes place at the drivers destination (such as the drivers home), saving on the time it takes to go to a gas station to refuel (not to mention the time saved from not needing oil changes, smog checks, etc).

    As for what to do while waiting, I’ll either use the time to grab snack, go to the bathroom, or watch something on on of the streaming services available from the console.
