Gone

They want her seat to go to a brown person

2019-10-28 01:47:45 UTC  

mark my words

2019-10-28 01:49:48 UTC  

her district CA-25 is has a huge military installation and large swath of state forest/park

2019-10-28 01:50:06 UTC  

i thought maybe they'd be a little bit more conservative in their politics

2019-10-28 01:50:51 UTC  

They are normally

2019-10-28 01:50:59 UTC  

she flipped that red seat blue with her election

2019-10-28 01:51:25 UTC  

Was one of the very few red spots in Cali

2019-10-28 01:52:06 UTC  

orange county was big holdout too

2019-10-28 01:52:12 UTC  

but it has gone blue recently

2019-10-28 03:16:26 UTC  

aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

2019-10-28 03:16:57 UTC  

yes

2019-10-28 03:19:21 UTC  

did they just magically create some technicality on the spot to let this guy off the hook?

2019-10-28 03:19:36 UTC  

seems like it

2019-10-28 03:21:13 UTC  

Judges do it all the time.

2019-10-28 03:23:47 UTC  

of course

2019-10-28 03:24:19 UTC  

this is an exceptional example of that

2019-10-28 08:35:16 UTC  

@DarthSammich Well we can't just *inconvenience trans folx* with the punishments doled out for their crimes

2019-10-28 08:35:24 UTC  

That'd be transphobic

Tough old fart

2019-10-28 19:21:47 UTC  

What are they gonna do, give him life in prison?

2019-10-28 20:56:29 UTC  

The greatest of the Greatest Generation

2019-10-28 20:59:50 UTC  

Cause St. Louis's biggest problem is cops telling other cops to not float around on fairy wings so much

2019-10-28 21:04:11 UTC  

they don't have 20 million to spare tbh

2019-10-28 21:05:44 UTC  

Who, the taxpayers?

2019-10-28 21:07:54 UTC  

yes

2019-10-28 21:08:04 UTC  

Thats a HUGE amount of money

2019-10-28 21:08:13 UTC  

The city wont be paying that

2019-10-28 21:08:20 UTC  

and if they do, services will HAVE to be slashed

2019-10-28 21:09:19 UTC  

That's an interesting dilemma, but I doubt the government gets to just shrug and say "nah we can't pay"

2019-10-28 21:09:40 UTC  

And at the same time they can't really just close up shop because they don't have the money to keep running things, either

2019-10-28 21:11:26 UTC  

oh, they CAN say that

2019-10-28 21:11:30 UTC  

I've seen it done

2019-10-28 21:17:28 UTC  

Apparently the custom is to have lawsuit insurance, but inability to pay can bankrupt PDs.

`Ron Serpas, New Orleans' former police chief and a consultant with PFM, agrees. He says training and active monitoring of new hires can make a big difference. "You see numerous times that poor decision in hiring or succession planning results in multimillion-dollar lawsuits in cities."`

2019-10-28 21:24:56 UTC  

heh

2019-10-28 21:25:40 UTC  

this is probably the REAL reason cops aren't doing their job anymore
