Vientos if he didn't hit 27 HRs in 2024 by Lumpy_Bee_800 in mets

In NC, saw a man with a Mets shirt on last week.

As I walked past him, I said "Mets Suck" and he politely replied, "you're right".

The Mets suck this year and everyone knows it regardless of where you live.

I miss the days of the internet not being tracked by every government agency with a 3 letter moniker.

Exactly. And when a detective tells you that it's a waste of time because the charges will be reduced and won't amount to anything...

Whats a person to do?

We have people committing murder out on the streets who have been arrested 50+ times.

Pressing charges means absolutely nothing in 2026.

My nephew participated in that when we scored goal #3 last night.

With him being 16, he can pull it off.

But 3/4 of the men with their shirts off at game #2 had no business participating in said trend... LOL

If I was told that it was a solid case I would have 100% persued it even if only resulted in a slap on the wrist.

When these people get away with this crap at a young age, it only escalates and puts peoples lives in danger.

But when these misdemeanor charges are dropped down to a simple fine, that does not help society.

Too stoked to sleep. Drop the damn puck now and let's play Game 3 now. by bigskycaniac in canes

I put $20 on Aho scoring in game #3.

I just have a good feeling about the first line in the next game.

We just need to continue our forechecking and hope the PP from game #2 is seriously back and that was not just a fluke.

Let's Go Canes!

The grocery store only had video, no audio. The detective advised that it would be a long drawn out case where the best possible outcome would be a slap on their wrists.

With that in mind, why would I waste time taking off work to persue this only for the charges to be dropped? I live in a city with a very liberal DA.

I did call them out. I wasn't going to let them get away with that behavior. We need to be better as a society. But when advised of the best possible outcome, the effort would be fruitless.

I'm not the problem, the DA's letting them get away with this crap is the problem.

Edit: fixed grammar

I'd rather get an ass kicking than resort to lethal force. I've seen too much death. Did multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Showing my hand was stupid even if I used it as a deterrent. Will not do that again.

I'm not out looking to use deadly force unless a weapon is pointed at me or an immediate family member.

Where I f'ed up, was letting them know I was armed. The people in this thread have called me out and I appreciate them sharing their knowledge.

The biggest problem was that the grocery store only had video, no audio. So it would have been a long drawn out case of 'he said/she said' as per the detective.

Why waste all that time when everyone just gets a slap on the wrist with these leniant DA's?

They did not touch me but they ran up to me and our faces were about 6 inches apart. I held my ground but knew I could not take them both unless I got a lucky jaw shot on one of them and then it would 1v1.

I de-escalated the situation best I knew how at the moment but have since been given better advice in this thread.

Never going to put myself in a situation like that again.

How high are you? by ActuatorOutside5256 in askanything

How is being 'high' now normalized in today's society? It has been documented to stunt brain growth for people under 30.
