The continuing impact of uber liberalism is dystopian. 

I thought the actions of Los Angeles County DA George Gascon was insanity, but New York clearly said hold my beer.

A career criminal comes into a store with his girlfriend and tries to buy some chips but his card has no money.  Angered he goes behind the counter and starts to beat up the owner saying he wants the chips for free.  The owner fights back and stabs the thief who ultimately dies.  George Soros funded Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charges the owner with murder and sets a $250,000 bail.  The thief's girlfriend stabs the owner five times and she is not charged with anything. 

WTF is happening to this country?

You left out the part where the girlfriend had a knife as well

 

"During the fight, Simon’s girlfriend allegedly stabbed the worker in the shoulder with a knife she had in her purse, according to Alba’s defense attorney — but she is not facing charges."

I'm an idiot.  Read too fast.  I agree.

Well at least that vermin is dead. New York is the worst.  

Meanwhile, the parts store wasn’t open for MX to get critical parts, multiple families gained another week of not having their HHGs, and an estimated 6900 pages of forms were misplaced in the uniform prep “party” hubris (but the customer won’t know until they eventually call and are told they have to start over, mi scusi!)

Fucking shoes

Grand Forks is a Global Hawk base, so no worries. 

Try as I might, I can't look away from the Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page, because they do a good job of publicizing these kinds of shenanigans.

They did not disappoint.  Highlighted that MSgt Westmoreland wasn't authorized to be wearing the MTI hat when not acting as a MTI, some criticisms of his uniform, etc.  Subsequently, MSgt Westmoreland reached out to the page mods and asked them to take down their posts.  Which of course the mods declined, and published the message exchange.  400+ comments so far.

Always love a "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes" moment.  Good entertainment with my Sunday morning coffee.

It's almost like....people who do stupid bullshit don't like being called out for their stupid bullshit.  Oh BTW, if I'm, I dunno, ANY OFFICER in that formation, no fucking way am I letting myself be inspected by some former MTI trying to relive his glory days. 

Not that it’s a great choice, but I’d rather see an open ranks inspection than most of the other stupid shit we saw in the month of June.

Debatable whether anyone is concerned with operational readiness.

When did "ORI" change to mean "Open Ranks Inspection?!?"

I seem to remember it meaning something else...

When I read that I thought they were doing an open ranks inspection as a capstone to an ORI...then thinking WTF, who dose an open ranks inspection to finish an ORI!?

The ORI you remember is ancient now days.  They have revolutionized light years beyond ORI's by executing Agile Combat Employment exercises in which bases/units generate personnel and equipment, fly to a forward location and execute operations from said forward location.

Oh, you mean they have an ORI…

And it was an “officer”, likely the LRS/CC that condoned this. Shoes get away with this crap because fellow officers don’t have a backbone to put the mission first and not engage in dog and pony shows…much like all the deployed Wing Kings that let their Chiefs and Diamonds run wild.

Reminds me of way back when I was an Airmen Crew Chief during an ORI.  We had an old school (flew in Vietnam) WG/CC who must have wanted to "make a good first impression."  They had all our jets lined up on the ramp and each DCC/ACC stood at ease in front of their respective jets.  The WG/CC picked up the IG/CC from his C-40 transport on the taxiway, then on their way to the in-brief, they made a pass down the line of jets.  As the car approached each of us came to attention and saluted (on the flight line no less) the car as it passed.  What a fucking ridiculous waste of time and pepper grinding to the max.  Does anyone think this shit really matters?  My guess is the IG was cringing on the inside.

The full Uvalde video was released. Absolute cowards. All of them. 

Unbelievable. I have reserved all judgement and opinions until now. Well, now that video evidence is out - fucking pussies. Of all places, I wouldn’t have expected LEOs in Texas to be so dickless (not applying this Texas-wide).

The fucktard posted in the hallway checking his phone with a punisher background along with the kitted out bloke getting hand sanitizer was a nice touch.

That's a complete lack of training.  They have no idea what to do, they're out of ideas.  Not knowing what to do, is what breeds that fear.

Horse shit. Grab a fellow cop and run towards the gunfire. These guys were buddied up but hopped away at every gunshot they heard.

Clearing a school building is a MFer, I would guess that they're taught to wait for SWAT and only go in, in an emergency.  I would guess they've never drilled the emergency part, which is based on their god awful movement/positioning/etc. 

My contention is if those pistol packing cops had drilled that emergency situation (clearly this situation fit that description) repeatedly, to the point of automatic response, they would have moved in this case.  Your contention is they are just a whole group of pussies?  Some of them, maybe, but all of them?
