great writing! Your Trump impression is missing a random tangent.

unfortunately yes. only arrests “in the comfort of” private property require a judicial warrant, while property owned by states (incl. streets and courthouses) are considered public property

ah thanks

that is so stupid just use a dash

i didn’t understand what “the organization” meant either

i still don’t understand, it means the team decided to ban the ICE agents?

wtf is that colon mean; the agents commented “team”?

we don’t need to let the zionists co-opt the word “antisemitism”

The only source I would trust here that you linked is the famous 1998 CJR article. It just points out the misnomer caused by what we call the incident to point out that mass killings happened elsewhere while students were peacefully evacuated from the square itself. Of course I also trust the photos you linked are real. But just like the aforementioned myth (also explored by the CJR article), you perpetuate the myth of the crackdown being on primarily student protests when far far more of the dead were of the inspired workers’ protest, especially those killed as the army was heading into Tiananmen. Such violent crackdowns made it so Deng could not recover his influence until 1992.

Yes, students did stone and kill soldiers and Molotov APCs, including the lynching of (just) one soldier as depicted in the photos. But that does not justify the hundreds of protestors killed with live ammunition. Yes, there was no carnage in the square during the Tiananmen square massacres. Misnomers abound. But as a person I try to get others to understand me in communication. Yes, the “Tiananmen square” part is a misnomer. But who’s gonna understand me if I go about every day saying “June Fourth Incident”? Not to mention a lot of the killings were also committed around 11 PM the previous day.

I also did a bit of a misnomer: It’s dubious whether you could define the mass killings as massacres. My point was that China ordered the army to do what they did. It sounds to me like Kirp was characterizing the other regions’ hatred to blame for what happened around Tiananmen, which hopefully we can agree was not what happened.

China gave orders to massacre, so it’s no surprise they got a massacre.

Since that’s organized under each state they probably feel good about their own states.

good thing the patent means no one else can use it

Like Broadfern, you clicked on the far worse Atlanta case from 2011 linked in the post body as a related case, not the 2025 NC case linked from the title.

The case you’re talking about is 2011. This article is a recent case where I see no indication of Jerry Guy’s involvement. The 2011 case is way worse since Guy did have wrongdoing and the mother was with children, but that doesn’t mean the 2025 case’s driver is at fault, which is what PotatoesFall meant to saw when they mentioned intention.

Edit: i wrote this before seeing your edit lol

I agree that “intentions” is a very weak way to put it, but there’s nothing indicating this driver did anything wrong either. It’s horrendous that the parents got charged, but the child “went between crosswalks”, which I take to mean going diagonally at an intersection. It’s plausible that the driver was doing everything right by traffic law and didn’t have enough time to react.

(Note that the case Broadfern quoted is a different one, I guess to illustrate the point that “intentions” are beyond the point.)

Or OP just likes the independent outlet 404 Media, as I also do. Gizmodo features AI-generated articles (ones with the byline “Gizmodo bot”). It takes a simple adblocker or the bypass paywalls clean extension to bypass the authwall.

No paywall for this article yet: “Sign up for free access to this post”, it’s not a free trial.

same as why they keep source code public

you can do that???

so far the movement’s basis seems to be just italian law. hopefully there’s more good cases in more countries
