A corrupt-mayor-hiding-body-cam-video-evidence says what?

Also: "New York authorities have made reducing crime on the subway and buses a top priority following a series of violent attacks, robberies and murders. A crackdown on fare evasion is part of that push."

One of these things is not like the others.

You're right that a still image of a knife matters little to me, I understand you were responding to a post specifically about a knife being present, and I'm adding that whether a knife is present or not doesn't change the fact that the city and police are releasing statements and withholding evidence to manipulate public opinion. Why should I have to trust the cops at all if there is video evidence of the events that I can use to form my own judgements from? Why hide the facts from public view?

Sorry but I'm not going to take the city or cops at their word because we've seen multiple similar incidents in the past where they spun their story then when forced to release the footage it's a completely different story.

Why hasn't the mayor released the full body cam footage yet? If they are going to release statements but withhold material evidence we should assume they are doing it to manipulate public opinion against the facts.

Is this like the affidavit Comer told the public on Fox 'news' was evidence of Biden committing a crime, then realizing it was misinformation fed to him by a Russian operative he completely fell for?

Just another reminder of the hypocrisy that Russia receives weapons and munitions from several countries and doesn't restrict their use in Ukraine territory the way Ukraine has been restricted with NATO supplied weapons.

What behaviors of Larry Ellison is it going to help change? Hoarding wealth to the detriment of society? Attacking the tech sector with their army of lawyers? AI monitoring billionaires sounds strange, but I'm willing to see how it goes.

Two and a half years into a 3 day invasion and Russia wants to attack NATO countries in retaliation for Ukraine using weapons gifted to them at their full capabilities after themselves receiving additional weapons from Iran they use without restraint? It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for them.

 

Been listening to a few lately, a few John Carpenter's, Mayhem was pretty out there, looking for more that are interesting or wildly off topic or entertaining.

 

"In these times of darkness and hopelessness, we wish to share a strong message of solidarity and recognition to those Palestinian journalists who are covering this crisis in such dramatic circumstances. As humanity, we have a huge debt to their courage and commitment to freedom of expression," said Mauricio Weibel, Chair of the International Jury of Media Professionals.

 

Just trying to live with as little advertising as possible and curious what tips or tricks the community has aside from moving out to a cabin in the woods.

I can't really get away from road side advertising for now. Public sporting events are completely infected, and for the ads I am forced to see I try to make a conscious effort not to buy their goods or services. I won't subscribe to a streaming service if they have a sub+ad tier, if they're separate free with ads or sub no ads I'll support it.

Not really for any moral stance, but ad blockers are good at avoiding malware and some services are basically broken if you have to wait for an ad network, and I just feel mentally healthier in general without the extra propaganda.
