Yes thankfully we have 911 by text in much of the USA now

In the 10th and 5th circuit it is iirc.
It's still on the forms and the ATF can probably arrest you for it, but as of last month you would have 2 federal circuits of precedent.
US gun owner here:
It 100% warrants a call to the police.
Sounds like assault with a deadly weapon, and if he took it out to show, then it's brandishing. It doesn't matter if it was non-firming because the target didn't know that, and typically these laws are written to be what "a reasonable person would believe".
Also, at the time this happened he was a known user of Marijuana and thus not eligible to own a firearm, as that rule had not yet been struck down.
Don't tell anyone but I hid a networked kadis-kot program in the diagnostic database. Look for "Aft Tractor Beam Polarization".
If you get the grounding box you can have an antistatic collar for the dog and a strap for the human. Plug both in and you're both at the same potential.
Alternatively the human can touch the banana plug side of the strap, as the in-built resistor will "slowly" equalize the charges between you. I say slowly because in human terms as soon as you touch its already done.
The ugg boots may be electrically isolating as well, so a heel-strap is typically worn in ESD environments to overcome insulated soles. In combination with a grounding floor mat, this works without having to think too much about it.
Additionally, you can get a humidifier and maintain a relative humidity above 40%. Thankfully you don't need insulation to do this!

That's the beauty of the "can't hold the position consecutively" rule.
It doesn't matter what age, party, or how long you've been in office.
You can always run for a different office, or wait for the next term to run again.
You're right, it's never as long as this. I am young, though so I don't know how it would show in an ancient man hahaha.
I don't see the appeal in insisting everything is fine. I would rather see my leaders saying "hey, I don't feel good so I'm going to take some time to get healthy".
I do have to admit, after getting concussed I also appeared to freeze but I was thinking hard of what the right word is to say next.
That said, probably anyone in concussion recovery should be on leave from legislating. The brain will heal more slowly, and your work will be of poor quality.
That's all before getting into the actual politics of having a gerentocracy.
I know a lot of people have talked a out adding an age limit, but it seems to me most of the ancient ones are skating by on incumbent effect. If we had term limits it would resolve that. Alternatively something like the Virginia Gubernatorial rules where you cannot hold the position successively.
Yep, door already has a hole in it, get a cheap kwikset at the big box and slap that in there
At this point maybe we should spin off a new uniformed service from the navy nukies. The Uniformed Nuclear Energy Corps. Federally run nuclear power!
In the interim, build some generator ships to supplement any city with a port.
If trans people die after being denied by the sexologist, then the safety is illusory.
We cannot exist when we are merely tolerated.
Some of the states actually do give a fuck about us and it's important to call that out along with the states that want us dead.
Companies don't trust their workers because they don't treat them well enough to earn their trust.
So to avoid the trust issue they just implement more and more draconian techniques to make up for the lack of pay/vacation/respect.
It honestly might even be cheaper than just being nice to your employees. So yay? Profit?
I personally do not trust any company provided equipment. I would never do anything untoward within the eye of their cameras. I work from home and I set up a second wireless network for all my work gear, and firewall rules to prevent them from talking to anything on my networks. I also use an external webcam that is usually turned off (electrically, as in no power flowing), and even my microphone goes through a sound board that can completely turn off. Bonus points is that I can also turn my mic down on my board, or pad it to hell and back and even if the meeting software lies about me being muted, I know for sure thanks to my trusted hardware.
Sounds like an arms race due to mutual distrust.
Surveillance cold war?
