Israel rebuffs Blinken's call for Gaza humanitarian pause
  • Between the unflinching support of the US, the world doing nothing to stop genocide across the globe, and the lack of any consequence for nuclear powers, they know they have basically carte blanche.

  • After being tasered multiple times, hit in the head with a flashlight, and handcuffed in a face-down position, investigation into Maine man's death in police custody is closed — no charges filed
  • A man on meth and fentanyl was aggressively resisting arrest and was a danger. Tazed, beaten, forced to ground, he suffered a heart attack. How much of a factor were the drugs, were the scenario, and were the cops’ actions?

    My first instinct was distrust of the cops, but it seems like there is more nuance here. Regardless, there has to be a better way in dealing with chemically-altered aggression (meth, pcp, fentanyl, etc.) other than continued use of escalating force.
