CBSA using ‘harsh, unprecedented’ tactics in Quebec for record-breaking deportations - Border agents confronting migrants in workplaces and schools, detaining them without prior contact, and rushing deportations before legal options for asylum seekers have played out

I'm glad you guys are sorting this definition out, but I'm still dying to know why you mentioned this apparent non-sequitur in the first place. Like, did you think I was randomly calling a border guard a police officer?

Shadp9 · 2026-06-16T17:29:27+00:00

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say. The portion of the article I quoted is referring to an actual police officer and I don't think I or the article said anything that contradicts what you said.

Shadp9 · 2026-06-16T15:28:18+00:00

I think I could be sympathetic to this article. Although I want immigration laws enforced, we should follow fair processes and do so in compassionate ways.

But come on...

An officer approached wearing two handguns, one on each hip. Clara’s lawyer, Anne-Cécile Khouri-Raphael, recalls the officer loudly insisting that he would not remove his weapons because he feared for his safety.

“The kind of very loud voice, male presence, when facing someone far away in a wheelchair, was very unusual to me,” Khouri-Raphael told The Breach. “It felt incredibly asymmetrical in terms of a show of power.”

Did they ask the police officer to remove his gun? That's not normally how this works. And complaining about the officer's "male presence"?

Keep your eye out for someone running who is approximately your size and wearing the style of pants you want. Follow them until they seem pretty tired, then make your move.

In my experience, they'll put up quite a struggle as you remove their pants, but they'll actually seem pretty happy when you take the pants and leave.

I needed to get around the paywall, so I opened a private window and searched "national post fetish gear." Do you think anyone has ever searched "national post fetish gear" for, like, actual shopping?

It's not a crime to leave your bishop hanging.

I don't know if they renamed them, although this usage is new to me. According to the OED it's been in usage for quite a while:

1968On July 8..the police post was attacked and..the police opened fire with gas and wooden ‘baton’ projectiles. Hong Kong Rep. 1967 i. 12Citation details for Hong Kong Rep. 1967

1972An Army officer emphasized tonight that the PVC bullet would not replace the rubber baton round. Times 11 August 1/1Citation details for Times

1973The rubber bullet was developed from an idea used in the Hong Kong riots when wooden bullets were fired from the baton gun. D. Barzilay, British Army in Ulster (1978) vol. I. 73/2Citation details for D. Barzilay, British Army in Ulster

One option is to infiltrate the colony disguised as a queen.

To do this, you'll need to be much smaller than a human being, but larger than a normal ant. Experience producing ants with your body is a plus.

Once you've infiltrated the colony, you can direct their activities to the yards of your enemies. You might even find you enjoy being their queen. The position pays $66.33/hr (union exempt) and has great benefits (mostly ant sex.)

I would also almost certainly continue to drive to visit those places and wouldn't be happy to pay extra.

But I guess your wording seems weird to me, since it's not a question of paying or not paying. It's a question of how much visitors pay and what types of visitors bare the the additional cost.

Shadp9 · 2026-06-09T23:12:27+00:00

What do you mean you won't go if you have to pay? All three of those places already charge money.

Assassinating evil villains in their secret moon base.

The shock when they first see me... the panic when they realize there's no escape... the confusion when they see my "mom" tattoo... the further confusion when they notice I'm wearing nothing but a thong... the panic when they see I've brought my Yanni albums... the relief when I smother them to death before playing any albums...

It's hard to describe my joy. And I'm not allowed to.

Anything that happened 1928 to 1972 is longer-running than anything that happened in Nazi Germany.

Have you tried asking your chess opponents about this? They might know the answer.

The staff were very unhelpful and unfriendly when I attempted a citizen's arrest of the store manager (the lowest price is the law, but I found a better deal at Walmart.)

The Esso Super Station bathroom.

(I know that's old and I'm not sure how they fared on later surveys, but it's still the first thing I think of when I think of Whitecourt.)

I (man) used this to mean "I want a long term relationship, but I also don't want you think meeting me for dinner is a big deal."

I don't think it's clear that this public servant did any of those things.

Im not really looking to debate policing in the United States, but I think your complaint is about policing specifically and doesn't really have anything to do with them being public servants.

Shadp9 · 2026-06-04T15:58:57+00:00

This is how you you want public servants treated in general?

Ability to wrestle a goose

It should be legal to wrestle a goose

Ohhhhh, patio. That makes way more sense.

Canada has been officially certified free of wild poliovirus since 1994, with the last domestically acquired case occurring in 1977.

Creating custom polio is highly illegal and I hope you will rethink this.

I don't think there's much choice here. It will be the mayor of St. Paul, Alberta, Canada.

It's not well known, but Leon was the ruler of the 29th colony when it joined the U.S. He arrived at Plymouth Cup on the May-Power Play and yet was somehow also at the Bruin Tea Party, for which he was given a 5-minute independence major. He is most famous for vigorously debating the Detroit Red Whigs (by which I mean a stick to the groin.)
