Anything conducts electricity if there is enough of it.

Maybe they will have an upgraded version with a large rubber nose and a moustache.

The juvenile system was split off from the department of corrections in 2006 as a step to reform the system. The state has made extensive rules that the local operators have failed to follow. Four facilities were closed because they operated in an unacceptable manner. Plenty of other states have similar problems with juvenile detainees. We are actually trying to fix the problem.

“Well isn’t that the horse calling the kettle black”

I love this.

All five of the facilities that were closed and 4 of 5 still operating are in mostly or totally red parts of the state. It’s not Democrats working at those facilities and abusing the kids. It is Democrats working to reform or entirely eliminate the system.

I went to College about 65 miles west of Chicago (or about 1 hour driving). One weekend some friends decided to take a road trip to Maine so one friend could confess their love to someone. They left Friday after classes ended and drove nonstop, took one hour in Maine for the friend to get shot down, and then dove back. They didn’t get back until late Sunday night. That’s about 1300 miles and with a few bathroom/food stops 24 hours each way.

So did Bozo the Clown. Doesn’t make them a god.

You skipped the “and permanent housing units” part of my comment. Shelters are a step to getting off the street. They give homeless access to information and resources to improve their position. It is in no way “ignoring the problem” like you claim. Short of singlehandedly solving poverty, what do you expect a mayor to do?

San Francisco has increased the number of shelter beds and permanent supportive housing units by more than 50% over the past six years.

It could have this song from Stingray Sam as it’s yheme. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PNhXYmJ0G8c

It is not unusual in alimony or child support cases for someone who refuses to pay what they owe to be locked up for contempt. It is a way of compelling obedience to the law in civil cases.

Lock him up for contempt of court until he testifies.

Knew a k9 cop. He freely admitted this is how it works.

They have enabled all sorts of unconstitutional things in the last few years, so I don’t expect them to stop. Doesn’t mean it’s not unconstitutional.

I’ve explained elsewhere why the first two happened. The third was in large part due to the US blockade of Cuba.

Star Wars might as well get in on the suit.

Probably Toei animation as well.

It doesn’t matter if half the country wants something if it is unconstitutional.

All I can say is that the host of behind the bastards is an excellent journalist who does thorough research before each episode. I don’t have any expertise in this topic, but in other episodes where I am knowledgeable his research has been accurate.

Anything from Rusty is always good stuff!

That death toll also includes China who also used Lysenko’s fake farming techniques. Russia didn’t want to admit their plan wasn’t working and China didn’t want to admit they were failing using the method that supposedly worked so well in Russia. Farmers reporting low crop yields in both countries were blamed and accused of hiding food for themselves. The deaths definitely fall on a lot of shoulders, but at its heart was Lyselko convincing the government to use his plan with false data and continuing that lie even after he knew it wasn’t working.
