I have questions about how necessary it was to fire at the woman in the first place.

•if she's in an empty lobby with her and her son, and two security officers, could they not have tried to negotiate and get the kid away first?

•Did security actually see "materials consistant with manufacturing explosives" inside her trenchcoat before firing, or is that something they alleged after they shot a 7yo in the head. There were no explosives found on her body or at home.

I know it's hard to judge these situations, but I feel like there could have been a resolution where the kid doesn't sacrificed by everyone involved.

68 billion to acquire IP, but can't afford to pay the people who make and maintain it.

We have corporate protections in the USA.

If Trump wins, we won't have fair elections in 2028. Do they need to see a second insurrection to get off the fence?

You guys don't drunk-order a bunch of useless shit then expect to return it for no cost once buyer's remorse sinks in?

They've been bemoaning the fact we have Democracy lately. They're playing up the Republic angle, and believe the People can't make the correct decisions for themselves.

His lawyers forgot to ask for one. There were a dozen articles floating around this morning about it.

The union chiefs announced it on Twitter and thanked Biden by name for having a team continue to negotiate. Whether people were paying attention or the media covered is a different matter.

These dummies never understand that their country doesn't want them. Society grows and leaves some people behind. Adapt and grow or turn in to an old man yelling at clouds.

In my head i call it the "Rule of least want to do". If i have 2-3 tasks that need doing (ususlly work related), i think of which thing i least want to do. That's the thing i get done, then move down the line.

You've just articulated a feeling I've had most of my life, but couldn't have described better.

Solving trivial problems for people they could easily do themselves if they just muddled through the work of it. Then act like I'm a genius, when it's really just 'stubbornness' and refusing to admit i can't figure it out.

Thanks for that.
