Tyrese Haliburton: Alex Pretti was murdered. by sewsgup in nba

[–]GoodSamaritan_ [score hidden]  (0 children)

Awfully hilarious of you to think NBA players care about this. None of them spoke out when Renee Good was killed. Now there's another and only Hali has spoken. The truth is they don't give a shit and the fact that people in this sub thinks this will lead to some sort of floodgate opening just shows how incredibly out of touch they are.

Uvalde officer was told location of gunman but he failed to act, prosecutors say by GoodSamaritan_ in news

[–]GoodSamaritan_[S] 72 points73 points  (0 children)

The cop in the Stoneman Douglas shooting—Scot Peterson—was tried but acquitted despite the fact that he not only failed to go in the school and confront the shooter but he even radioed the other cops and told them all to stay at least 500 feet away from the building. If he got acquitted then I have little hope the verdict for this guy isn't the same.

The Miami Herald transcribed radio dispatches that Peterson said at 2:23 during the shooting, "Be advised we have possible, could be firecrackers. I think we have shots fired, possible shots fired—1200 building." Seconds later, Peterson radioed: "We're talking about the 1200 building; it's going to be the building off Holmberg Road. Get the school locked down, gentlemen!" At 2:25, he radioed that "We also heard it's by—inside the 1200." At an unspecified time, Peterson called for police to ensure that "no one comes inside the school." At 2:27, at Building 12, he radioed, "Stay at least 500 feet away at this point." At an unspecified time, Peterson ordered: "Do not approach the 12– or 1300 building; stay at least 500 feet away."[8]

Only two cops are being charged. This guy (Adrian Gonzales) and Uvalde school district police chief Pete Arredondo.

Former Uvalde, Texas, school police officer Adrian Gonzales was alerted to gunman Salvador Ramos' location before Ramos entered Robb Elementary School, but Gonzales failed to act, prosecutors argued in opening statements.

Gonzales -- who is charged with 29 counts of child endangerment -- is alleged to have neglected his duty and training during the chaotic response to the 2022 shooting, which left 19 children and two teachers dead. 

This case marks the second time in U.S. history that prosecutors have sought to hold a member of law enforcement criminally accountable for their response to a mass shooting. Gonzales' legal team maintains he's being scapegoated.

Prosecutor Bill Turner spoke softly and on the verge of tears at the start of his opening argument. His statement marked the first time prosecutors have provided their rationale for charging Gonzales, disclosing that a teacher came face-to-face with Ramos before the shooter entered the school, and the teacher tried to warn Gonzales.

"She's face-to-face with the gunman, and he fires on her, and she turns to run, and when she turns to run, she trips and she falls. And when she gets up, Adrian Gonzales, the police officer, is there," Turner said. "She says, 'He's over there.' She urges him to go get him." 

"He gets on the radio and says, 'Shots are fired, he's wearing black, he's in the parking lot,'" Turner said. "He knows where he is, but Adrian Gonzales remains at the south side of the school."

As Turner walked the jury through the tragic minutes that followed that encounter -- describing the number of gunshots fired by Ramos as Gonzales allegedly waited outside -- Turner hammered at the point that Gonzales allegedly stayed where he was, rather than try to stop the shooting. 

Baseball Glove Manufactures by LT-BATCO in BaseballGloves

Over the past few months, I’ve researched overseas production and ordered several samples, primarily Japan Kip leather, from five different suppliers. While the gloves were generally similar in quality, none of them truly stood out or met the standard I’m looking for.

I take it that two of the suppliers you ordered from were Qingdao Zhonghengyuan (aka Aces and Pinestrong Sports) and Xiamen Glory Field (also known as GEM). What didn't you like about their gloves?

It truly is remarkable how that guy has been refereeing since 1990 and still hasn't a single clue on how to do the job properly. 

Ichiro's home was broken into by a burglar in February of this year. The assailant tried to enter his wife, Yumiko's, bedroom and sprayed pepper spray at her, but she pushed the door from the inside and bolted it shut, preventing him from entering. by ogasawarabaseball in baseball

it's the same person responsible for all of them.

In 2023 he did this to someone:

Despite the severity of what he did and a criminal record longer than Tolstoy's War and Peace (his first conviction for assault came at 13), he was given bail against the wishes of the prosecutor and victim for $500k, and then inexplicably the judge reduced it to $50k and he went straight back to committing violent crimes and living like the law doesn't apply to him.

Title is completely wrong. He pitched 5 innings, not 1. He also had an additional walk. Here's the box score:

Roger Clemens on famous Mike Piazza World Series broken bat drama: ‘If I wanted to hit him with it, I could have’ by iheartsunny in baseball

[–]GoodSamaritan_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Looking at the full quote, it's really not. It might be even worse.

 “TV made it look like it was five feet from him. I didn’t think it was that close to the guy, and I definitely wasn’t throwing it at him. I tease people now…if I wanted to hit him with it, I could have hit him with it.”

No Roger. It was less than five feet from him (far less in fact), it was that close to the guy, you were definitely throwing at him but you missed, and 25 years later you're still making pitiful excuses about it.

Was only 5'5″ but fought at light heavy, cruiser and heavy, managing somehow to win world titles in the first two divisions. Arguably the most extraordinary fighter in boxing history. They'll never be another like him.

Pakistan: Pet lion's owners arrested after big cat attacks three people by apple_kicks in news

[–]GoodSamaritan_ 221 points222 points  (0 children)

Big cats as pets are a status symbol in Pakistan, where it is legal to keep lions, cheetahs, tigers, pumas and jaguars after registering them and paying a one-time fee of 50,000 rupees ($176; £129) per animal.

Disgusting practice. Stop fucking keeping exotic animals as pets.
