If I'm struggling to breathe, should I take more fentanyl? Asking for a friend named George.

I'm not an expert on police procedure, but it looks like the officer restraining didn't make any significant mistakes. He did a quick search of the belt area, tried to put on the cuffs at :35, but the suspect seems to resist as soon as the cuffs touch him. The officer tells the suspect "don't" and tries to continue cuffing when the suspect breaks free.

The only thing the officer could have done different was use more physical force to restrain the suspect. Unfortunately, the suspect was initially cooperating so that would have been excessive force if the officer had done so.

Blaming this on the officer performing the arrest is like blaming a store clerk for not doing enough to stop a shoplifter.

let's not use any proper training and just go straight for the guns and killing

Maybe we should take one of those tools away from cops so they don't mistake them for each other. The criminals have guns and a taser isn't good enough to beat a gun, so take the tasers away.

Any time an officer feels the need to fight a criminal, they should just go straight to lethal force. Then people like the fool in the video will fear and respect police like they should.

Sure, it can be both. My original point was the cost has to be considered. If you end up flying more than half of your hours just to keep your license, you are probably a hobbyist and the time and money spent to keep your license is piling on the costs to fly, compared to commercial.

That looks interesting. I'm sure the up-front cost will make it out of reach for most, though.

If you have to fly to get your hours in, then it is more of a hobby than a transportation method.

Assuming one layover of 1 hour, plus 1 hour of check-in, screening, and 30 minutes of boarding, you could travel about 325 miles by private plane before the commercial flight takes off. The private pilot has pre-checks and still has to deal with ground transportation to and from the airports, so there isn't much more time saved than that.

Add another 1.2 hours and the 400mph flight will catch up to the 130mph flight around the 450 mile mark (I did the math). This distance also happens to be the approximate 4x cost for a flight I calculated earlier. It is equivalent to about 8 hours of driving.

About $10,000 in instructor's fees later, you can rent a single-engine plane that goes 130 mph instead of 400+ mph. It will only cost you about four times the price of an airline ticket for a round trip!

This meme format is supposed to be a tough choice. The selection on the right, by itself, seems like an acceptable choice if one ignores the context of the option on the left.

Gauss does use 3/4 abilities in most situations. The lesser-used cold/heat puddle can be replaced at the helminth, or used at choke points and for slowing disruption targets.

What about people who already have autoimmune disorders? Does that increase the risk of the mRNA "vaccine" causing adverse reactions? Without proper data, I'm going to avoid the "vaccine" on that risk alone.

It was the frame I was looking forward to the most. That was until I played Gauss and found out how invincible he is while doubling melee damage dealt. Hard to beat his damage with a Reaper Prime heavy attack build.

I think a major part of the problem is the addiction to attention that has been fostered over the past few decades. Victim culture grew out of attention-seeking behavior. Trans culture is just the next step up from that.

Social media has preyed upon attention-seeking addictions. Think about the progression from personal blogs and discussion boards, to MySpace, Facebook, and now Twitter and TikTok. The quality of interaction with others decreased as social media evolved, while the effort and extreme behavior required to gain attention has increased.

I fear for what may come next in social media.

It isn't that hard. All you have to do is trane!

I stopped using Levi brand because their product quality declined about ten years ago. I think they switched to Chinese manufacturing. The result was noticeably weaker material which wore out faster, especially around the seams.

One blow-out in the buttocks area was embarrassing enough. I looked at the rest of my jeans and they all looked ready to fail in the same spots.

Regulation isn't the answer. When companies get so big and have power over a majority of online activities, they are a monopoly. Existing anti-trust laws can be used to break up their control.

You are correct. Crew are screened through TSA checkpoints. They often have a special line similar to TSA pre-check.

Turn their woke-ness against them.

"Do you push people out of wheelchairs to prove they can walk? Do you throw punches at blind people to try to get them to react? Do you yell at deaf people? Stop harassing me for having a disability."

Yell it loudly. Make a scene. Make her the person who gets embarrassed.
