Why Police Traffic Stops Are Dangerous and Ineffective | ACLU
Millions of drivers are pulled over every year for minor violations like broken taillights or tinted windows. Data shows these stops rarely make roads safer, and instead lead to racial disparities, violence, and loss of trust in police.
Police killed 152 people during routine traffic stops in 2024.
To save lives and protect our constitutional rights, cities must listen to the majority of voters who support limiting or ending police enforcement of certain minor traffic violations.Β

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP
You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670
Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem
If youβre angry about βyour moneyβ feeding people but not angry itβs giving tax cuts to the wealthy?
Youβre doing their dirty work.

I love being pretty "extreme" in my "radical" beliefs, practices, and lifestyle while also being open to and aware of other perspectives. I feel like it really throws people off that I can strongly disagree with someone but have a conversation and not get heated lol.

I had Charley in glue ons a while ago and they seemed to help but he was doing so good fully barefoot for like a year π Iβd def do glue ons again but I worry if there is an abscess in there again now itβll just make it harder for it to drain?

Posted about this elsewhere but Charley was severely lame for days with an abscess in his right front and then randomly showed up lame in left front too for one day but then it went away? Horses are so stressful

no the US gov did not do this (or at least thereβs 0 evidence of that), but our government has successfully used weather modification as a weapon before, so the concept is not as wild or far out there as some of you seem to think

Like realistically, eating less meat is gonna do WAY more for the environment than not using AIβthough of course we should limit consumption of both.

Iβm of course anti-AI in its current forms, but I feel absolutely feral whenever I come across people who spend what seems like hours a day ragging on others about the environmental impact of AI but wonβt entertain the idea of eating slightly less meat to help the environment

I pay $650 for self care for two horses ($325 per horse). I feel like if itβs basically full care then $700 isnβt terrible and it also depends on the area but it is kind of a lot. Iβve worked places where full board was $1000+
