There's no reason for the sender to have been redacted as well, of course.

Visited here a few years ago. I felt that they really undersold the Moorish castle. It was my favorite spot in Sintra

Wow, the animation effect is fantastic.

Looks great. I love the slime/shine.

Soft power isn't implicitly evil and if it helps to prevent outright acts of aggression and related acts that lead to world wars, they're a welcome tactic. Money and resources from one of the richest countries going to help some of the poorest countries is generally a good thing. I'd argue that the alternative is worse, even if it may seem less insidious to you.

I mean, for decades every time shit like this happens he makes the same or a similar statement. He's been constant with his messaging.

If it's worth anything, I appreciate the level of detail in your explanation. It makes you more human and allows me additional points to empathize. Also, if I were a hiring manager and had the background on your approach to technology, I'd be much more inclined to hire you.

I couldn't find any videos of the pursuit or anything, just body cam footage of afterwards and the agent indicating that he wasn't as injured as DHS had claimed. The agent shot him in the back of the neck and killed him. Completely unjustified. He had lived in the US since he was 18. Undocumented but not a criminal, just dropped his kids off at school, worked as a line cook.
A sane country would have provided a path to citizenship or deported him back to Mexico instead of shooting him in the streets. No reason to escalate to a point where the agent is in danger and felt compelled to kill someone. Just let him get away and catch him at home. Worst case is that you don't and he continues to be a productive member of society and make food for people. Shit drives me nuts.

Do you have a source for this? Having trouble finding with the deluge of Minneapolis News.

China & US have not paid the same price. I believe their paths aren't required to reach your goal of strengthening democracy and freedom. The alternative appears to be the plight of Venezuela, however.

It's such a shame no one is going to touch this game now.
