From section 1-16.200 of the DoJ Justice Manual:

“Firearms may not be discharged solely to disable moving vehicles…unless…no other objectively reasonable means of defense appear to exist, which includes moving out of the path of the vehicle.”

I’ve seen the video. That murdering nazi could have stepped backward if he thought he was gonna get hit.

Her name was Renee Nicole Good. She was 37. Her mother described her as a gift:

“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”

Update: she is survived by her wife and a 6-year-old daughter.

RIP, Renee. 💔

@siracusa This is truly heartbreaking. I often go back and watch old episodes with so much nostalgia. In fact, I remember before most episodes were uploaded to YouTube, I binged on almost every episode one weekend while babysitting. I always would have loved to see a revival of the show done the same format and aesthetic reviewing modern versions of tech. #RIP Stewart Cheifet, definitely one of kind presenter. Thank you for documenting the era. #Technology #Microsoft #Apple #90s #Computers #PC

#RIP #BB #Brigitte_BARDOT #FrontNational Een beroemd reactionair is van ons heen gegaan. Bekend om haar films en haar decolleté en veel minder om haar onversneden reactionaire politiek:

"De mens had afgedaan, in de ogen van Bardot, die in haar autobiografie uit de jaren negentig afgaf op de ‘toestand’ van het ‘compleet afgetakelde’ Frankrijk, dat zich vulde met homoseksuelen, travestieten en moslims. De voormalige bohemien postergirl van de sixties gruwde ervan – al die bandeloosheid, die homohuwelijken en die vreemdelingen met hun moskeeën."

de Volkskrant

Brigitte Bardot op 91-jarige leeftijd overleden, Franse actrice belichaamde de seksuele revolutie voordat die bestond

Ze speelde in bijna vijftig films, maar Brigitte Bardot (1934-2025) was meer dan een actrice. Ze was een stijlicoon, een nationale trofee en een toonbeeld van vrijgevochten sensualiteit. ‘Een heilige zou zijn ziel verkopen aan de duivel, enkel om haar te zien dansen.’
