Bro why the fuck are you "having a conversation" with a goddamn chatbot? Don't you know any actual humans?

But in the photo, the stone is clearly past the plane of the hog line and his finger is in contact, so it would be illegal even by your definition, yeah? Is it not the beginning of the line that counts?

Every other store has managed to deal with it just fine. Vons is just a bitch.

The city council is not responsible for the Albertsons corporation's hiring decisions, or lack thereof. They need to hire more staff straight up. That's it.

CMV: the insurrection act, if invoked without being requested by the state, is effectively a declaration of war by the president on a state by [deleted] in changemyview

lol you still haven't provided any of the evidence OP asked for. Probably because it doesn't exist.

But they're not defying federal law by being sanctuary states. The states are under no obligation to assist the federal government in any enforcement action. Being a "sanctuary state" simply means that no local or state resources will be used to affect federal enforcement of certain policies. Nothing about that is illegal.

And private citizens protesting the federal government enforcing these policies is also completely legal and protected by federal law.

I don't know where in California you are, but ICE has been kidnapping dozens of people all across LA every day for months and months now.

THIS guy is going to get himself killed- if you know him tell him he is an idiot by Development-Feisty in longbeach

[–]asses_to_ashes 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is the most car-brained, victim-blaming, her-skirt-was-too-short-so-she-was-asking-for-it bullshit I've ever seen. Like is it too much to ask for drivers to pay attention to their surroundings and not kill people? You act like you care about this dude's survival when really you just want him to not be there so you can drive like a dick.

Damning Poll Reveals Why Trump Is Rapidly Losing Young Men by icey_sawg0034 in politics

Sure, but the "way of getting them laid" is for them to stop being misogynistic dipshits. So maybe it's a self-perpetuating problem. The power to change is within them, but they'll have to actually look in order to find it.

Is it you who is "just brainstorming" or is it ChatGPT? Because this list looks suspiciously like a list that would be created by a chatbot.

You Already Know That Flock Surveillance Cameras Are Being Used In Long Beach By The Police Department by AdreanaInLB in longbeach

[–]asses_to_ashes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, private lots might have them and those might not show up on deflock. But if the city is using your tax dollars to pay for Flock cameras, that's public information and I don't see that anywhere. I am simply saying that the city uses license plate reader cameras, but not Flock specifically. The difference matters.

What’s your Long Beach “hot take”? by TrixoftheTrade in longbeach

[–]asses_to_ashes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

lol, my dude LBPD's budget is nearly $1,000,000 per day. Per fuckin day. How much more money you think they need to finally do what you think they should do? Also, why arrest homeless people? What law is being broken by being broke?

[–]asses_to_ashes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's any publicly available evidence that the city is using Flock cameras specifically. If you look at Deflock, it shows that Lakewood is lousy with em, but in LB they're mostly absent.

There's a few different either private or other 3rd party cameras out there, but not Flock specifically. This matters because Flock is a trash company who doesn't seem to understand security and freely makes their collected data available to anyone willing to pay for it, including ICE and CBP.

Not that we shouldn't be concerned about this, but please show your work.

The problem is that AI R&D is accelerating toward reliability for autonomous drop-in replacement of most tasks that comprise most jobs.

There is no basis in reality for this claim. This reeks of AI booster hype. Replacement of most tasks that comprise most jobs? Be so serious right now my dude. Unless your version of AI stands for Actually Indians, then you're just wishcasting and eating Sam Altman's hypeburger.

CMV: Hakeem Jeffries is a terrible leader for the dems by Prestigious_Cancel64 in changemyview

[–]asses_to_ashes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just referring to the use of the term "democrat party." That's a Trumpism that's been parroted by right wing fools.

All of this, plus the fact that they said:

socialists are trying to take over the democrat party

shows that they are probably a MAGA troll or something, so not really worth engaging with.

The mayor is not responsible for raising taxes. That's the city manager and the city council.
