He's gonna abuse his Malaysian maid isn't he?

No not really. I have the bedtime mode set up the way I want it with the necessary exceptions. Airplane mode would mess that up.

The funniest thing about this is that Prime day is a "holiday" of their own making. It's not like it's the Christmas push caused by consumers.

Oh thanks, the second clip is actually here. I'll fix it in parent in a minute.

His defense of Godot and his stance on the attacks, seem very reasonable and correct: Clip 1, Clip 2. Nothing like what you remember, OP.

Separating from Off Brand Games to protect them of the fallout of his opinions and public exposure also seems like a correct decision.

Edit: fixed second link

Wow that's fucked. In my country the kids going to school is the parents legal responsibility, they can actually get fined if the child is delinquent. But never would the child be arrested.

I'm very sorry that happened to you, both the sexual assault and the police treatment.

The questionnaire respondents are requested to leave those out. See my other comment. I dug up some detail.

Clinton signed his crime bill

I wasn't familiar, thanks for the pointer. This rhetoric "though on crime" has been going on from before my birth it seems.

We cannot take our country back until we take our neighborhoods back. Four years ago this crime issue was used to divide America. I want to use it to unite America. I want to be tough on crime and good for civil rights. You can't have civil justice without order and safety.

I'm unfamiliar with the term field arrest. If I get this right, this is what happens when you get arrested for a misdemeanour on site, cited and then immediately let go? Possibly with a requirement of turning up to a police station for booking, or to a court date?

I read a bit of the paper, and it seems they are simply using the data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997.

The relevant NLS topical guide says the following:

NLSY97 youth respondents are asked whether they have ever been arrested by the police or taken into custody for an illegal or delinquent offense (not including arrests for minor traffic violations) and the total number of times this has happened.

And looking up the phrasing in the questionnaire is also exactly the same

Have you ever been arrested by the police or taken into custody for an illegal or delinquent offense (do not include arrests for minor traffic violations)?

So I guess it would depend on whether respondents consider a field arrest an arrest and report it.

All of those sound insanely high. If you take a group of 10 random adult men from the US, roughly four of them have been arrested?

Is a lot of it for underage drinking because that law is so far from lived reality?

I think that makes sense too. Sure a drunk cyclist is less of a problem than a drunk motor vehicle operator.

But as the third party you still don't want 100 kg (200 pounds) of dude and aluminium frame running into you at 20 km/h (12.4 mph), especially if you are a pedestrian, a second cyclist, or a biker.

Yikes. Did he make through?
