For real. Dubose didn't even have a weapon of any kind in the car. What I've been reading on FB is that the officer tried to open Dubose's car door, and Dubose shut it. And the officer tried to open it again, and Dubose pulled it shut, and the officer fell to the ground and shot Dubose in the head.
FOR NOT HAVING A FRONT LICENSE PLATE.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Matt, the cops ARE the lynch mobs.

Because books.
I saw something about that case. The campus cop part was what struck me. I didn't know campus police carried weapons, for one. The whole thing is awful.

And ALL of the local news channels and the newspaper have filed suit against the prosecutor to get him to release the footage. Last I heard (but it was on Twitter, so I don't know if it's true) is that CNN joined the lawsuit.
I think things might get really ugly here really soon.

You can (and maybe should) cook any beans with pork. Any preferences for color or size or whatever, casserole dish-wise? Here's some possibilities: [link] Or I can just pick up whatever appeals to me...(it will not cost anywhere close to the prices on the website. It might be as much as $10)
Ugh, that sounds bad, Tep.
Woo, Jilli!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yeah, since when are campus cops armed? Since when do they have any sort of jurisdiction off campus? I hope they nail that cop to the wall.

Oh, I had heard about the lawsuit to release the footage but not about the actual case (probably because I only hear 10 minutes of news a day, if that much, so it's pretty random what details I get)
Jilli, I think auctioning off the shuffle is a great idea! You certainly have fans, and the playlists are fun, so why not?

On an urban campus like UC's, I'm not surprised they're armed.
Since when do they have any sort of jurisdiction off campus?
That's what I don't get -- and pulling someone over for not having a goddamn front license plate??? Yes, in Ohio you have to have the front plate, but an actual city or state police officer should pull drivers over for that. Why is a UC cop pulling someone over for a missing plate?
I hope they nail that cop to the wall.
It sounds like the body cam footage is pretty damning for the cop. If that's true, I want to say I expect the grand jury to indict him, but then I think about Darren Wilson in Ferguson, and maybe not.

The whole food conversation inspired me to come home and make my junky version of a taco salad, ground beef cooked with onions and salsa, cheese, & whatever veg in the fridge, plus corn chips.
