It this generation's OJ trial

You may want to read the article - they did call the police. Unfortunately it takes less time for someone to violently smash through a door than for the cops to arrive.

Interesting that you summize that they were apparently silent as this guy smashed their door

And, would you really play the odds that someone violently entering your house would suddenly have a moment of clarity when they entered? He was messed up enough to think shattering his own window was a viable option to get into his house.

This wasn't a punishment or sentence.

He was literally breaking through the door to enter the house.

What was the home owner supposed to do? Hope he became non-violent once he got in? Challenge him to a game of chess? Declare a set of non-lethal rules and duke it out?

The homeowner has a right to not be attacked in his own home ffs

He didn't just accidentally enter the wrong home, he was forcibly breaking into the home when he was shot. Even breaking a window to open the door from the inside.

Tragic as he was likely just intoxicated and confused, but understandable that the homeowner would use force to defend himself

While the woman was on the phone with police, Donofrio broke a glass window on the front door "and reached inside to manipulate the doorknob," at which point the male resident fired the shot through the broken window that struck Donofrio in his upper body, according to police

$75K is a decent salary

4 bedroom house in a nice suburb: $750K-$900K

Townhouse in a a nice suburb: $650K-850K

You can get smaller houses in less desirable neighborhoods for $400K

These are activities that only exist for the sake of the participants and are not financially self-sufficient

They may be super intense hobbies, but if they aren't jobs or charitable services, they are still hobbies

I don't see bitterness in the comments, just the realization that the general population doesn't see value in subsidizing elite athletics

Who is responsible for providing for people who choose not to contribute?

I'm not working away all day when I could be persuing a hobby and still getting paid just so someone else can persue a hobby and get paid

I think his analogy is accidentally spot on. ICE cars are going to be around for a while

That alone was a great punishment for a decent and good middle-class young man with no prior offences

Sounds like someone's privilege isn't being adequately upheld

Did he do it twice - the team wasn't ready for him when the deluge hit late in the race

The trend towards minimalist control designs in cars is a mess.

3000lbs+ machines whose controls are now designed to force the driver to focus on a screen or panel vs. going by touch

And non-intuitive gear levers that differ in each car

After the undercut from Max on the 2nd set of stops, Checo wasn't waiting for the team to call him in

They probably don't care about Twitter - it's just a way to insult Musk because he is obviously invested in the"X" rebranding

Deodorant

The union has had a rather rocky relationship with Disney, who appoints all five seats on the district’s Board of Supervisors. Their focus is largely on the theme park business and union members allege the Board cares little for actual employees of the District, which includes first responders like firefighters. Fire trucks and rescue units have broken down on multiple occasions, forcing responders to arrive on the scene in SUVs. Staffing has also remained inadequately low. Disney and Reedy Creek have both aggressively denied these claims.

Sounds like things weren't great with Disney, but choosing DeSantis isn't going to work out any better for them

Let's hope this doesn't age like milk like Obama's "at least I was president" joke/comment did

"nein" works, meant to write "none"

They were banking on Trump's coup to work. If he had regained power, none of these people would have been prosecuted

(e: "nine" to "none")

But would his secret service allies really be willing to move to Russia with him?
