ICE PEPPER SPRAYED A ONE-YEAR-OLD because her mother was filming them.
ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

More details below.

I’m deeply disappointed by the recent reports suggesting that the Hurricanes are considering signing Michael McLeod or other players associated with the 2018 Hockey Canada World Junior team — and the sexual assault allegations that have surrounded that group.

So, news writers:

If you don’t know why clopping is kind of gross, why “frens” are white supremacists, and why “clown world” is fascist accelerationism, either sit this one out or ask someone what the symbols actually mean. Don’t fucking wing it.

One of the disturbing successes of the online fascist movement was their realization that if they make their symbols just fucking stupid, the “legitimate” media won’t explain them because explaining it makes you sound stupid.

Super cool that the media will spend zero time trying to recognize all of the actual bullet markings as 4chan meme shit and will instead cherry pick a couple and say “see, antifascist clearly he was a leftist” to help legitimize violent government response.

Bingham County Idaho. This CHILD RAPIST was sentenced to 180 days in jail for raping a 7 year old for 5 years. Part of his plea deal was that he would not have to register as a sex offender. So, what do y’all say we make him as famous as Brock Turner?
Meet Candon Dahle. Let’s make him famous.

Destroy the little bit of a safety net we still provide as you give more money to those who already have it, all while giving unprecedented funding to federal law enforcement in the midst of a president seeking to unconstitutionally and illegally use federal law enforcement.

What could go wrong?

You see, the reasoning is that if you take money away from rich people they will not work. If you take money away from poor people they'll be more productive. Maybe they can take all the money from the rich so that they'll be incentivized to work harder.

Refs may hate to call penalties that could decide playoff games, especially in OT, but I bet they love those puck over glass DOGs
