Even if somehow they find the officer didn't act appropriately he will get a slap on the wrist and maybe fired from that department, but the next county over will hire him.

It's the same situation with North Korea. Either let people starve and hope something will change, or encourage bad leadership by saving their citizens from their bad decisions.

Why not build it in a remote location then?

Dams can also produce a lot of hydroelectric power, and a catastrophic failure could also destroy an entire town or more. We just don't build dams upstream of a large town.

Man, Armagastan is such an accurate name for what America is these days.

It even eludes towards Armageddon, it's perfect.

One thing I never see addressed with the dream of ending cars and just having bikes is how do first responders operate? How do you transport unconscious people to the hospital? Put out an apartment fire? Get to an armed robbery in time to stop it?

Bikes are great but they also aren't an end all be all solution to society.

Both probably on Putin payroll to cripple the military by removing competent leadership and replacing them with incompetent people.

Also damaging to businesses... I already knew about the butter recall and then saw this. My brain automatically filled in 'peanut butter' when reading because of the photo, and my first thought was damn, Costco fucked up again? Maybe they are going downhill in quality. Until I read the comments to realize I should reread that.

My zoo buries them on the premises. I know of a camel, a moose and a few other things got buried there. They have a large plot of land that is used to dispose of organic waste like branches and trees, old compost, etc until it's full and needs to be tricked out to the landfill. They just bury the animals under the ground there.

The zoo near me a few decades ago had an accident where a lot of their reindeer got pregnant before the male could get neutered. They kept all the female offspring but they couldn't risk having two males in the same enclosure and no nearby zoos needed male reindeer or also couldn't accommodate them so they had to put them down and ended up feeding them to the carnivores in the zoo.

I wonder if prepaying would be a way to force them to help you if you have a miscarriage instead of turning women out at the door.

"I already paid for this! Get over here it's too late to say no!"

We need to try and bankrupt any company that produces fax machines.

The industry will need to adapt once fax machines aren't produced anymore.

I prefer having ballots not say what party the person is in. Then people actually have to know who they are voting for, not just blindly check a box beside R or D every time.

I call that kidnapping

Personally I prefer a mixture of both. Touch screen for anything you don't need to operate while driving and physical for everything else.

Android Auto navigation, car system/audio settings, clock and system management, etc should all be a touch screen so you aren't navigating through turning knobs and pressing up and down buttons to go through various menus like your programming a microwave.

Knobs and dials and buttons for anything to do with audio volume, skip/reverse tracks, etc. and air conditioning.

My dad is the same with gas price. If gas is 156.9 cents a litre? Nah to him it's 156 cents a litre

Then leave the advertisement alone. They still print the prices on tags at each store location.

Let them send out flyers saying item A is $20 *plus local taxes but when you get to the store the pricetag on the shelf should say $23.50 or whatever the markup ends up being at that location.

Go extreme minimalist. Buy practically nothing you can live without. Boycott everything. Politicians only listen to their gdp and stock numbers.

... Are those street legal vehicles? I want to say they aren't but I don't know enough about them.

Even if it were an exact clone I don't think a single company should have a monopoly on the idea for almost 30 years. Pokemon red was released in 1996, 28 years ago. Why should they still be able to be the only company that releases pokemon-type games?

Man, maybe the Dems lost because the VPs are named Tim ... They should really look into people with other names maybe.
