As Dinosaur/CTX becomes extinct, its best elements have been preserved for future generations in this loving tribute to the attraction featuring the World Premiere of the Dino Institute's elusive full score, along with its magnificent murals and a gallery of historical photos of the attraction's construction and early days as "Countdown to Extinction"!
🚨ICE agents are threatening to assault and illegally arrest U.S. citizens in Portland, Maine.
In the video, a man is legally observing ICE activity in his own neighborhood.
Agents walk up to his car window and ask, “Are you following us?”
The man replies, “Yeah.”
An agent immediately escalates and says, “What you are doing is called impeding federal law enforcement. It’s an 18 U.S.C. §111 charge. This is your first and only warning. If you continue to impede and follow us, you will be arrested.”
The man then correctly responds, “Yeah, but I’m not impeding you.”
Another agent jumps in and says,“You just openly admitted you were following us, so…”
And again, the man correctly explains, “I am following you. I’m not impeding you. I’m observing you.”
Which is a constitutionally protected right.
The agent responds anyway, “It is impeding.”
The man replies, “No, it’s actually not.”
At that point, the agents become visibly angry that he knows the law and threaten him again, saying, “This is your one warning. If you keep doing it, we will pull you back out and arrest you.”
Just to be very clear…
Following and observing law enforcement, without interference, is not a crime.
Threatening arrest anyway is an abuse of power.
Threatening to “pull him out” of his vehicle is a threat of unlawful force.
These agents are not enforcing the law, they’re misstating it, weaponizing it, and hoping intimidation will do the rest.
They don’t understand the laws they claim to enforce. They just parrot a few buzzwords and statute numbers, and expect the public to fold.
And when that doesn’t work, they threaten violence.
Because the biggest threat to an ICE agent is someone who knows their rights.
@TomSweeneyINC LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!! I respect the hell out of the performance, but it never felt like THE Joker to me. Far too calculated and copycat imo. Joaquin cemented himself as my fav Joker with the talk show scene. Will never watch part 2 for that reason
@GraceRandolph In an alternate reality, Joker 2 wasn’t an intentionally bad film and we’d have The Batman Part II this year. Alas, we ask for so little and we receive it in abundance.
@TheChrisRayGun I got shit from somebody for saying “he got what he wanted, but he lost what he had.” I condone it about as much as the sleep that I’m losing: none.
@JimShull And is putting more stress/demand on a nearly 30 year old attraction (that doesn’t increase capacity) by reskinning it to an underperforming IP really the best Disney can do these days?
@JimShull The three pillars that make up DAK are a kingdom of animals real, ancient & imagined. With the closure of DINOSAUR, it undermines DAK’s core theme. The Dino Institute would’ve fit just fine in tropical Americas, taking guests back in time to a different version of the land.
Used my precious limited battery life and flashlight to make this. Covering Coheed and Cambria and working on my vocals. Honestly, feels there's been a big improvement, but still need to just practice regularly.
Anyway, lemme know what you think please and RT if you dig it 🤘
@GhostRade As a not spry, not young, actual crypt keeper in his 30s, I just attempted to eat a chipotle burrito and my soul left my body. So thanks for this.
