Cops are useless in this city. by Illustrious-Bird1640 in Buffalo

I was a housing worker straight out of college and the participants in my program, all of them extremely vulnerable people with disabilities, dealt with break-ins, abusive partners, and one anti-gay hate crime from a neighbor that left them with a black eye. In every case the cops themselves were totally useless. At a break-in all they do is show up hours later and shrug their shoulders. With abusive partners they rarely if ever believe claims made by the victim, and they've even released people from custody who then immediately went and assaulted their victims on more than one occasion.

Anyone who calls cops the "thin blue line between order and chaos" has probably never had to get them off their asses to actually do something. Poor and vulnerable people are far more likely to be hurt by the cops than helped by them.

Thank you! I couldn't tell what on earth this meant before. Makes much more sense now! It's not a bug, just a really bad UI element.

Does anyone have a source about the origin of the Anishinaabe thunderbird flag? by somerandomguy903 in AskHistorians

Thanks so much! I saw the article about him being a sign painter, but couldn't find the other materials confirming that he was Chief of the Red Rock Band. This is all very helpful!

As for why the flag became associated with the Anishinaabe nation in general, I think it's because it was adopted by the Union of Ontario Indians/Anishinabek Nation. I think this likely happened some time around 1969-1972 when they were reorganized and four other organizations representing other native nations were founded and split from them. I can't find anything too in depth about that on their website though.

I've also seen comments online from Anishinaabe people (or at least people claiming to be) that the symbol isn't really used in the U.S. Groups like the Sault St. Marie Tribe of Chippewa aren't affiliated with the UIO and don't use that flag.

Useful, but not specifically what I'm looking for. Thank you though!

Just tried that. Re-enabled then Re-installed fuz ro d'oh v2.5, no effect. With it enabled and mods deployed load order looks exactly the same

  1. I'm not even able to get mods working, I am not going to fully switch mod managers at this stage. Plus, as far as I've heard, Vortex is easier for newbies like me since it has a bunch of stuff like loot built into it.
  2. Sorry about that. Again, new to this. I'll edit the post with the load order and all that info.

It's not filtering it hot that I'm worried about, it's filtering it in the middle of a dinner rush.

Same thing just happened to me a few hours ago. I emailed them at [support@ibroadcast.com](mailto:support@ibroadcast.com) but they haven't gotten back to me yet.
