Can someone help me figure out what the hell is going on here ? Has the San Diego court system just not cleared a single traffic ticket in 6 years ?

This comment was left on a video about a 6 year old who was killed by a driver; beyond the callousness it’s just the perfect example of car-brained selfishness
And the city has to pay for safe infrastructure somehow! I’d invite you to find money for that without cutting cop or fire budgets

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

The focus has been on maximizing the number of units affordable to staff, not on deepest means-tested affordability.

Cannot emphasize enough how these humble little lanes have transformed my relationship to the neighborhood for the better. I explore the neighborhood so much more, I visit businesses more often because it’s that much easier to get there quickly, I commute by bike more often because it feels safer.
