Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

At the risk of stating the obvious, PHONy and Hanson are grubby truffle pigs snuffling in the shite for media attention and bottom of the barrel followers. The sooner #Auspol relegates them to history, the better. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

If plants have feelings where are the plants rights groups? You'd think one would have been set up by now with all that concern in the comment sections 😅

It's hard to fathom that anyone thinks ICE can be reformed or retrained. ICE needs to be dismantled and then cauterized so it can't grow back. #AbolishICE

💥 ICE drag mom & teen daughter out of hospital room—in middle of being treated after car accident. Still wearing hospital gowns. Both victims of car collusion, with asylum case pending in good standing & valid work permit. Grace Calero 39, & Giulianna Carriel 19, from Ecuador.

I know there are lot of people who think voting does nothing to stop fascism, but I do notice that one group who seems to think voting does something to stop fascism are the fascists, who are trying to prevent it as much as possible.

Anyone worried about data centres and water usage needs to start walking the walk and go vegan for starters. Apparently few seem to be aware that animal agriculture is the greatest threat to fresh water and oceans alike www.hcn.org/articles/cat...

DATA CENTRES have nothing on #livestock farming If you’re genuinely concerned about freshwater depletion, go vegan or just stfu if you’re not willing to take the most effective action #WaterIsLife 💧

Scientifically, a raven has 17 primary wing feathers, the big ones at the end of the wing. They are called pinion feathers. A crow has 16. So, the difference between a raven and a crow is only a matter of a pinion.

"The reflexive interpretation, that Australia is simply lurching to the far right, is wrong, and dangerously so ... It is being fuelled by "networks of AI-generated Facebook accounts targeting Australians with pro-Hanson content." #Auspol redbridgeintel.substack.com/p/one-nation...

Stories like these are important because they give an insight into the experiences of the vast majority of disempowered detainees who have no opportunity to speak for themselves.

A British grandmother with a valid visa detained by ICE for 6 weeks. "So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. 'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that,' Karen says."

James Talarico: No one's ever asked me about the cost of housing. The only thing the media wants to ask me about are trans athletes. The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. We are all focused on the wrong 1%.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth: “ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king. This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”
