Bodycam video shows Illinois cop shooting unarmed 14-year-old suspected of breaking a window

Tell the story for what it. A police officer shot a child. What they were or weren't suspected of, whether they had a weapon or not, doesn't matter.

Nothing would change. For a start, PA doesn't control gaza so can't service it, and secondly israel and Egypt are both blockading Gaza. Independent Gaza would continue to have nothing.

Why?

I think we can take some solace from the fact that it took Spurs almost 100 minutes, two wrongly called off/onside calls, and an own goal, to beat 9 men.

If Motorsport Manager has taught me anything running at a £2,5m deficit per race is high but not abnormal

That's true, though I can't say for the US, in the UK, inflation is still ridiculously calculated. about it, because staples like pasta and rice weren't included, but champagne was.

This is the correct take. Unfortunately, there seems to be an overwhelming sense of "fuck you, I got mine" amongst a lot of people meaning they'd rather kick other people down than get pushed up.

We should be fine regardless, but Austria, France and Belgium? Christ that's a good draw.

I'm not particularly a food prescriptivist, but this isn't aglio e olio. By all means crack on, but with prawns and tomatoes in it? Not a aglio e olio in my book.

So then why not have a system that works for the 90% of people who are employees?

Are there that many self employed? Most other countries seem to handle this the, imo, sensible way, where employees are auto-taxed, and the self employed file their own.

Surely they can't legally hide allergens?

FLINTA - Frauen, Lesben, Intersexuelle, Nicht-binär, Transgender and Agender. It's a German acronym, and basically covers all non-cishet men, though with a bent toward the female side of things.

AMAB - assigned male at birth. Basically if the doctor slapped your arse and said "it's a boy", you're AMAB.

Though not acronyms, I'll expand for clarity:

N word - n****r, a racial slur aimed at black people.

F slur - f****t, a homophobic slur, primarily aimed at male presenting queer people, but pretty common all round.

And the 99% of people who don't loudly practice extreme beliefs which have been coopted for nefarious purposes?

In 2016, nearly 80% of Ireland identified as Catholic, and that was a low point for the country. Yet in 2015, we voted for same sex marriage; in 2018, we voted to legalise abortion; in 1995, we voted to legalise divorce; in 2018, we voted to stop treating blasphemy as an offence; in 1973, we voted to recognise other religions and stop putting Catholicism on a pedestal.

There's plenty to criticise mass religion, and especially institutions for, but don't conflate the powerful, and the extremists, who choose bigotry and hate over love and compassion, with the everyday person who just wants something to provide them with peace.

Oh absolutely, criticise the beliefs that don't make sense, and are tolerated. But pretty much everyone of most major faiths believe in science. There's the fundamentalists, who are extremely loud in their ignorance, but the majority of people aren't that.

Most of the time yes. A really simple example is the Bible line "thou shall not lie with men as women", the original text says boys not men. The Jewish peoples saw the Greeks fucking kids and said "hey, uh no, let's make that a law, that you shouldn't do that". Boy became men, and that's been used to claim the Bible forbids homosexuality.

I don't think there's anything ultimately wrong with religion as such. People always try to find meaning and purpose in life. If religion gives them a way of doing that, then excellent; if religion plays no part, then also excellent. The goal is to be a good person, regardless of why you do it. Is a Christian who follows the tenent "love thy neighbour" worse than someone who loves their neighbour? A Jew who helps Muslims despite the tensions between their faiths, and they help because YHWH says to? Are they worse than an atheist who chooses to not help? Religion isn't the problem. People are, people are always the problem.

A lot of FLINTA people don't like it. It can be especially upsetting to AMAB people who don't identify as male. It's not the same, but it's similar to things like the n-word, or the f-slur. If someone chooses to use the word about themselves, that's one thing, but if they don't, there's a very good chance you'd upset them.

I think doing those things when it's clear, is fine. As a queer person, when I catch my friends (usually inadvertently) say something queerphobic, I'll lean it and switch it to be critical of the cishet equivalent.

I think when it's clear, and when it's being used for a good reason, then there's no issue. You make a very good point about your child though. They don't usually get the nuances that an adult should.

I always call those people anti-theists, as opposed to atheists. The ones who almost have their lack of religion as a religion in itself and criticise (and let's be honest, demean) anyone with a faith.

By all means, criticise the church, and the structures, which harm people. Criticise the willfully misinterpreted doctrine. The religions themselves, people's beliefs? Leave them alone.

I don't disagree with your line of thinking, but OPs paragraph there says it's when a character is likely to die.
