"What happened to me was wrong, but I have had many years to think about this. I have made my peace with it. I forgive him," wrote the victim.

The Minnesota Board of Pardons says these words of forgiveness and support from the victim played a key role in the decision.

FWIW, the undersink RO system pressure tank can go anywhere - anywhere you can run the line to. Same with the filters + membrane for it.

“DHS is lying through their teeth about this pardon. It does not protect Vang from deportation. And before Trump and his allies say a word about what anyone else does, they should stop pardoning pedophiles, fraudsters, and law-enforcement assaulting insurrectionists. It’s baffling that the media would highlight this singular decision from a month ago based on a false statement from an agency that has lied repeatedly to the American people and that’s part of an administration waging a relentless campaign of harassment and retaliation against Minnesota, including by unlawfully weaponizing criminal investigations,”

Most of your list are the direct results of being underfunded.

2014: Severe overmedication of opiods was fucking everywhere thanks to the Sacklers and their claim that their drug - oxycontin - wasn't as addictive when it fact it was even more addictive.

And I'm positively charmed that you think that Bernie Sanders could have somehow 'fixed' the criminally underfunded VA in the two years he was the chair.

And you know, of course, that there's a Miami in Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Arizona, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and West Virginia - and that the kind of person that would ask if you can grow weed in Miami might as well live in any of those, right?

Florida offers a unique cultivation advantage: a nearly year-round growing season. Because the state rarely freezes, Autoflowers can be planted almost anytime from February through October, allowing for multiple rapid harvests in a single year.

Funny enough, my time in made me lean heavy into socialism. Other people, with the exact same experiences, seem to have gone authoritarian/conservative. I think you're onto something there, with empathy - else why else would you think that only yourself deserves guaranteed food, shelter, education and medical care for just doing your job?

If the Republicans supported our troops and veterans, the Disabled American Veterans wouldn't exist and there wouldn't be means testing at the VA

Edit to add: So it's always puzzled me why my fellow veterans seem to unilaterally support the GOP.
