To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets.
They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.
This false nomenclature of โresearcherโ and โengineerโ, which is a thinly-masked way of describing a two-tier engineering system, is being deleted from @xAI today.
There are only engineers.
Researcher is a relic term from academia.
Story below basically says election polling is shite, which is not wrong and not new. Counting yard signs, YouTube views, rally attendance, individual donors, etc., to cross validate could be interesting and useful..A matrix approach? https://t.co/LdsYxTHd19
@MarkWarner Itโs the guns. Do something: assault weapon and high capacity magazine bans, close gunshow loopholes, mandatory locks, national red flag laws, etc.
Plural/possessive name reminder:
For names that end in an s or z sound, you can either add -'s or just an apostrophe.
Going with -'s is the more common choice:
the car that belongs to Jones โ Jones's car or Jones' car
Another good study showing local news relies too much on police as sources. This is focused on fentanyl, but same is true with crime, police shootings, protests, etc.
