  • TIL:

    Police officers Jose Mateo, Rodolfo Mirabal, Richard Santiesteban, and Leslie Lee have all been charged in June 2024 with Manslaughter because the bullets that killed the two innocent victims were traced back to their weapons, which were discharged a combined total of nearly 90 times during the shootout, and all four have so far pled not guilty to all of the charges.

  • IDK if the people actually denying claims were scared enough to change their behavior, well plausible enough ya

    Wonder if any updated guidance went out to them at any point, written or not

  • Congratulations to the person who downvoted this

    They use a tool to improve their life?! Screw them!


    Here’s hoping over the next few years we see little baby-sized language models running on laptops entirely devour the big tech AI companies, and that those models are not only open source but ethically trained. I think that will change this community here.

    I get why they’re absolutist (AI sucks for many humans today) but above your post as well you see so much drive-by downvoting, which will obviously chill discussion.

  • It's most peoples understanding that being a member of any organization that has "socialist" in the name can make you a target for fascist. But I think it's also most peoples perspective that EVERYONE is a target for fascist eventually. There is no defense in just sitting by and hoping that you're the last to be targeted.

    this is

    As a straight white male it's definitely a privileged position to not have to be as concerned yet.

    a great

    The SRA itself is not at all political though and members are discouraged from doing any organizing that could be connected directly to the organization. It's basically meant to be a safe space for people to learn responsible gun ownership. Something that is usually dominated by the "maga hats".

    Thank you!

  • Think the FBI hangs out with y’all, post-9/11-mosque style? Which was very nice and not harassy of them

    Wonder if members are safer given you’ll all be more knowledgeable than average or whether fascists would make a point to target the group as the rights situation further declines.

    Hopeful the midterms magically change things somehow and we don’t devolve into this conversation being incredibly relevant/important and it can stay a no-knowledge theoretical comment of mine

  • Start seeding your social media history with MAGA five years ago (they’re smart enough to check that right, they only care about loyalty—forget competence)

    Also be bad enough and presumably you’re a terrorist like a Tesla protestor (naughty naughty, only domestic terrorists don’t support Elron)

  • Without civil asset forfeiture and wasteful budgets, would be hard to militarize as much as many US departments

    They’ve been playing Military Police for years now. Good news of course is the dozens of joints they’ve taken off our streets!
