Official police version of RNC protests is crock of shit
Requires NYT registration, I'm sure.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
From the article Sean linked:
Paul J. Browne, a police spokesman, said that videotapes often do not show the full sequence of events, and that the public should not rush to criticize officers simply because their recollections of events are not consistent with a single videotape...
...The Police Department maintains that much of the videotape that has surfaced since the convention captured what Mr. Browne called the department's professional handling of the protests and parades. "My guess is that people who saw the police restraint admired it," he said.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

There's a baby whale in the Delaware River near Trenton, NJ. Beluga whale. Seeing a whale with NJ in the background is odd. The people are flocking. I'd flock, but, look, there it is on my TV. The NJ Marine Unit is protecting it from would-be weirdos. It's very far from home but does not seem to be in distress.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Whales??? In rivers??? Whatever next? (whales in lakes -- I know)
I have finally resolved a contradiction. When Michigan says they have the nation's first highway, they either mean "nation's first mile of concrete highway built" or "nation's first "super highway" (Woodward Avenue between Detroit and Pontiac) was an eight-lane divided highway with a 40-foot median."
I don't know what the other states mean that also say it, but I feel better now.

Judicial tyrrany. Yeah, tyrranically preventing religious zealots from steamrolling the rights of everyone in the country, can't have that.

Trust my rage
I see that Focus on the Family now has a special Judicial Tyranny section.
I wish I hadn't read that because now I want to scream - or argue - or call Dobson out of his depth.

I just hope this anti-judge crusade doesn't have legs. It's kinda scary.
