Came here bc TikTok is gone for Americans and wanted to see what they had to say about it so why is the general message “ha those addicts will need to learn how to read and find a job” the general reaction. I thought this was a place full of reasonable people but y’all are all the same 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

"If I'm guilty of this, every cop in the nation's going to jail”

CHOAM for the holidays @samthielman.com · Dec 5

This story is uh, insane www.cbsnews.com/news/police-...

Adair, Iowa, had a population of 794. So, it seemed suspicious when its three-person police department asked regulators to buy 90 machine guns, including an M134 Gatling-style minigun capable of shooting up to 6,000 rounds of ammunition every minute.
Federal agents later discovered Adair's police chief, Bradley Wendt, was using his position to acquire weapons and sell them for personal profit. A jury convicted Wendt earlier this year of conspiracy to defraud the United States, lying to federal law enforcement and illegal possession of a machine gun.
Wendt is unapologetic and has appealed his conviction.
"If I'm guilty of this, every cop in the nation's going to jail," Wendt told CBS News just days before a federal judge sentenced him to a 5-year prison term.
Wendt's crimes appear to be part of a nationwide pattern.

Why

@why.bsky.team

To be clear, we do have plans for scaling, we just kinda expected more than a couple days notice before getting blasted with a million new users a day.
The team is rapidly deploying fixes and new software to adapt. More servers in the mail.
