Imagine being someone who speeds a lot, knowing it can and does kill people… kids, parents, anyone.
Imagine hating a public policy (speed cameras) that’s proven to make those people safer— safer from YOU— because your law breaking costs u money, so you rant that it’s a “cash cow.”
So, is that you?

“The Ford Govt in Ontario has passed a controversial omnibus bill banning municipalities from installing speed cameras.
Ford says it will make the province more efficient & reduce red tape.
It won’t do either, and he knows it.
It might get him “speeder votes” though.
This will kill more people.

Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.
When books were being pulled from Iowa classrooms, these teens started an after-school club to read them

Breaking — FEMA Acting Chief Counsel Colt Hagmaier just resigned in an email to staff. He's worked at the agency for more than a decade.
Hagmaier's resignation comes immediately after two FEMA employees were placed on leave for comments about Charlie Kirk.
