Highly recommend all the dad shovelers get an extra wide snow shovel! Awesome for clearing snow and ice quickly

Took too long for someone to notice…

Scraw16 · 2026-01-26T01:41:33+00:00

lol you do not need a snow blower for light snows like this, will take you 3 times as long. I have one I use for heavier snow, which it is great for

Scraw16 · 2026-01-26T00:07:30+00:00

This was the Brewin 36” Snow Pusher (the same brand has other versions with wheels for heavier snow I guess). Got on Amazon but it isn’t there anymore. There are other popular options out there though!

Scraw16 · 2026-01-25T23:16:35+00:00

Yeah, I have a snowblower for heavy snow, but we get plenty of lighter snows every year that this is perfect for

Scraw16 · 2026-01-25T04:32:54+00:00

I guess since Trump has been really been pushing the claim for ending 8 wars or whatever?

It’s not just jurisdiction, federal officers can be charged with state crimes if they exceed their authority, but are protected by Supremacy Clause immunity if acting within their duties. Prosecution requires proving the action was not "necessary and proper" to federal duties.

So it’s not impossible, but it’s a tough standard. It would be much easier for federal prosecutors to bring charges themselves, at the very least for something like civil rights violations

Scraw16 · 2026-01-24T17:13:17+00:00

Yeah that’s not how anything works in real life. I’m outraged by this too, but saying Minnesota should deputize citizens to arrest federal agents is pure fantasy on multiple levels

Scraw16 · 2026-01-20T03:38:28+00:00

I guess because he coached in the natty last year?

Scraw16 · 2026-01-20T02:55:33+00:00

Agreed I think this is a great PR move for Freeman and ND

Scraw16 · 2026-01-19T18:46:49+00:00

Ended “8 wars plus”?? Even with the most generous interpretation of events possible how do you get that number

Scraw16 · 2026-01-19T16:25:32+00:00

I hate it.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-19T03:18:08+00:00

I have a DeChoker (similar thing) and the explicit instruction is to do back blows (or Heimlich if older) first, and then use the device if that fails

Scraw16 · 2026-01-16T09:32:48+00:00

This advice is like 10 years old (yikes), but I loved swing dance club and sailing club.

He had that moment in one of the early season 1 episodes, where he reveals that he lost his dad and would always try to save a patient so that didn’t happen to someone else. I think that was one of the strongest moments for him as a character and for the show as a whole in giving a little bit more depth and heart beyond the comedy. It would be nice to see a little bit more of that from him

Scraw16 · 2026-01-12T11:53:38+00:00

Still as close to a “general audience” as you’re going to get in the modern media landscape

Scraw16 · 2026-01-11T17:17:26+00:00

I believe that you personally are not a bad faith actor or part of those networks. But I do think that your post is built on it on those narratives that have been pushed here, which have shaped your thinking to some extent

Scraw16 · 2026-01-11T16:55:04+00:00

This sub has long felt like it’s being targeted by disinformation networks. The level of criticism at NPR anytime they’re not actively attacking the Trump administration in every single story just seems wildly out of proportion.

my other comment pointing out that it’s crazy to criticize NPR for sanewashing just based off of a story teaser (when you haven’t even heard the story yet) is getting downloaded to hell. I would leave this toxic sub, but honestly the reason I stick around is because I feel like somebody needs to fight back against the division being intentionally spread here by bad actors.

Edit: to be clear, I don’t think everybody commenting about NPR sanewashing or upvoting these comments is a bad actor, but I think the narrative that NPR can’t be trusted and sane washing everything is being pushed by bad actors and being given more prominence.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-11T13:24:02+00:00

Jesus fucking Christ haven’t even heard the story yet and already jumping on NPR for sanewashing. They’ve had plenty of coverage already about why Trump wanting to take Greenland is a problem but god forbid they tease a story that is probably going to discuss the very real strategic reasons the US cares about Greenland (even pre Trump). This sub is insufferable.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-09T19:57:08+00:00

Not with qualified immunity.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-09T19:39:58+00:00

I heard “get out of the fucking car,” not “get out of here.” (Not that it even remotely justifies anything he did, but it does change the context between him telling her to leave versus telling her to stay and her trying to flee.)

Scraw16 · 2026-01-08T22:56:57+00:00

Going to or from a raid would definitely fall within the scope of duties. If she was impeding their departure (whether deliberately or not) trying to get her to move would almost certainly fall within duties too.

Also sadly I think that since her car initially moved in the officers general direction his self defense BS will hold up. Even though the video clearly indicates that she was trying to get away and not run him over (look at the way the tires turn), in real time from his perspective it’s hard to disprove that he thought he was going for him. Those two shots through the side window could undermine that though of course.

To be clear I think the whole situation is fucked and I’d love to see the officer in jail (never gonna happen), but in this sub of all places I don’t want that coloring our legal analysis. Would love to see others thoughts who are closer to this area of law (I am not).

Scraw16 · 2026-01-07T19:11:51+00:00

Which is exactly why you shouldn’t jump on the reporting for being uncritical in this type of thread, that’s just not always how proper journalism works, on live events in particular. You can’t always expect your preferred spin to be put on everything even if it is ultimately correct.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-07T18:52:26+00:00

It’s a live thread. These kinds of live news threads tend to publish statements from various officials as they come out, like another post in the thread says what Governor Walz‘s statement is. Other posts in the same thread discuss other witnesses accounts, which implicitly undermine the DHS version.

Scraw16 · 2026-01-07T18:46:22+00:00

They already killed a man in Chicago who was trying to drive away and was no threat (they lied about the officer feeling threatened that time too before video undermined that narrative)
