  • Even prior to the current political climate, police overreach in hospitals has happened multiple times. Usually involves police arresting a nurse/doctor for not doing what the police want (even if the medical staff are in the right). Medical staff loses pay for the day, patient harm does happen because of involuntary abandonment, and no punishment is metered for the police.

    So yeah, doctors and nurses are quite helpless here.

    Could ICE be liable for death or injury incurred from deporting a citizen?

    Yes, but only if the court will uphold the law. And at that point, the punitive measures can't bring back life or brain function.

  • Yeah, don't fuck around with electricity. That shit is dangerous. Even those "muscle simulator" things that are marketed as massage options. Don't send any electricity throughout your body unintentionally. Everything in our body operates based on small amounts of electricity. Mess it up slightly and it might not operate again. Mess it up a lot like this, and you likely induce internal electric burns. Not fun.

  • That's a bingo.

    Since they're probably chronically overworked, they're probably unhappy about it. And getting people floated to them who don't want to do work is a common issue with those kinds of units.

    I'm a very nonconfrontational person, but if someone called to interrupt whatever I was doing to ask "I want to know how much I have to work" tomorrow, I wouldn't be happy.

  • cars will need to use buttons, dials, or stalks for hazard warning lights, indicators, windscreen wipers, SOS calls, and the horn.

    Not enough, in my opinion. I've never had a car with these on touch screens, but I can't imagine why anyone would think it's a good idea. I'd like entertainment centers to stop being touch screens as well, but this doesn't go that far. Hopefully they do in the future, though, since this is a good start!

  • Boondock Saints

    Irish Brothers take a vigilante justice approach. Willem Dafoe is the detective pursuing them. Violence throughout, a touch of nudity for comedic purposes, overall a very enjoyable cult film.

    They made a second one which isn't a terrible movie, but it missed the mark a bit and fell short of the first one, so that was disappointing.

  • Congress says

    Congress is concerned

    Congress warns

    It is literally your job to prevent these concerns. Stop talking and do something. The old fucks who refuse to leave office have been collecting paychecks while sitting back and doing nothing, progressively giving away their power to the executive branch for the past ~20 years. Now they're concerned? Too little, too late. Either step up (but watch out for broken hips) or get out of the way.

  • Did any of you read the article, or did you just read the headline and jump to push anti-trump propaganda?

    I dislike stripping down ATCs, who are already overworked. But this ain't related to that. This was a PPL crash on an uncontrolled airstrip. I struggle to imagine how this is Trump's fault.

  • Next House Hearing: Hearing not scheduled Calendar: Bill currently not on a House calendar

    But it hasn't even hit the house. This is the American legislative process. Any bill can be introduced and read. It takes a lot to be placed on the calendar, but even then doesn't guarantee any chance at passing. So no, this is literally no further than "the musings of a Canadian backbencher who spouts his stupid opinions".

  • The practice originates from prisoner movement during our global war on terror. It was due to concern over domestic operatives targeting armed forces members, which is not new. The linked story is an example of this being used to instill fear.

    While I don't think this equates at all for simple deportation flights, this seems to be the underlying justification for the above tactic, be it to prevent retaliation or "making an example" to scare away further attempts at deportation.

    Again, I didn't think this concern is nearly as founded as it was during global war on terrorism, but this is what I think is the justification.
