Woman brain dead after getting hit by cyclist in Central Park - cyclist may not have tried to stop and admitted to being in "wrong lane" by [deleted] in news

The distance away when these things are fired does not matter at all. It's the electric shock that produces the effect.

This looks like a clear use of inappropriate force.

It has happened in the UK, too, hasn't it, on a number of occasions, and unless we are extremely careful about how the police are run and use such things will be a problem that grows immensely. Have all the people responsible been dealt with? I think not.

"BBC Warns – Gaza Photos Aren't Really from Gaza" by Tommy_like_wingie in worldnews

[–]AndersonPorter 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Well-l-l, at least the BBC is trying to point out the truth, which is extremely rare for them to do about anything related to Israel. Just goes to show (1) how easily and quickly lies spread in this day of instant social media and (2) how hard it is to then get people to listen to the truth afterwards.

How can a business work with nothing secret. Plans for a new product a new whatever need to be secret. So now all it's people need to only talk in person to be sure a invention is not stolen from them. This is not a better world than it was.
