I mean knowing about jury nullification basically frees you of jury duty, so knowing it is generally great

it's possible there won't be a trial
I don't expect the pigs will be trying especially hard to take him alive
I have a feeling the popo might be on the side of the shooter more than you think... remember they are using the same shit health insurance we do.
It’s a heartwarming story that unites all of America that I didn’t have on my bingo card in 2024.
I doubt the cops give a shit about this asshole either. He’s fucking their families over too.
The health insurance companies removing ceo names from their webpages just screams principal skinner meme...they really don't get why people are happy this happened. They're literally that out of touch
They’re publicly traded companies, the info shouldn’t be too hard to find
Unpopular opinion: Instead of being a fighter for social justice, it could have been just some rando hitman hired by an even richer rival. Guy then was spirited away on the next private flight to Mauritius or wherever.
And the messages on the bullets were put there to throw the police off the scent? Nah, that's way too much tinfoil for me.
he might not get caught!
(I know this is not the point of this post but probably don't boil mash or stick in a stew potatoes such as this one that are already sprouting)
Wait really? I always just cut off the sprouts so it's just a potato as any?
To provide a simper, clearer answer: It's not necessarily the sprouts, but the coloration of the potato. If you go to peel it and it's green, don't eat it. When it turns green it basically is producing solanine which is toxic if consumed in large amounts, causes digestive distress. Opinions are mixed. Some say throw it, others say just peel until white. So overall sprouts don't matter, it's what is underneath the skin of the potato.
I find people are the same. Just keep skinning.
Possibly I am an idiot here, as a whole lot of people seem to think its ok to cut out the sprouts and use them anyway?
I was raised that basically once they start sprouting, at that point you should be planting them, not eating them.

As a potato sprouts, its glycoalkaloid content begins to rise. Therefore, eating potatoes that have sprouted can cause you to ingest excessive amounts of these compounds. Symptoms typically appear within a few hours to up to 1 day after eating the sprouted potatoes.
At lower doses, excess glycoalkaloid consumption typically leads to vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. When consumed in larger amounts, they can cause low blood pressure, a rapid pulse, fever, headaches, confusion, and in some cases, even death (1, 2).
I'm not a doctor or dietician or chemist or potatologist and I have no idea if this is BS, and it seems like there is fairly widespread ... mixed opinions on this, but these here doctors say eating sprouting potatoes can make you sick, even if you cut out the sprouts.
Maybe the glycoalkaloid content differs between potatoe sorts? I have used sprouted potatoes my whole life without any issues whatsoever. Might have been just lucky that our potatoes are low on glycoalkakoids?
Ok – this is the official statement of the German Federal Agency for Risk Assessment.
TL;DR
- there have been only a couple of reports of glycoalkaloid poisoning through potatoe consumption during the last 100 years.
- sprouts, green parts and the skin of potatoes contain glycoalcaloids.
- cooking reduces glycoalcaloids.
- peeled and cooked potatoes are safe to eat.
Culinary preferences might make the difference: in Germany potatoes are eaten peeled = very low risk of poisoning, while my Canadian host family ate potatoes with their skin = slightly higher risk of poisoning, especially if you cut out sprouts but leave the skin.
I think it's a conspiracy by big potato to make you buy more potatoes
Seriously though, I guess the amount of toxic shit at the early sprouting phase is so low that it's exceedingly rare for anyone to get sick from it... But high enough that you shouldn't do it? Idk
Well that settles it, from now on I'm only drinking raw milk and eating boiled, sprouted potatoes for breakfast, to establish my rugged masculinity and stick it to the man.
=P
The toxins are concentrated around the eyes so if you cut them out thoroughly enough and it’s just barely sprouted it’s probably fine.
If you don’t cut them out or it’s very thoroughly sprouted you will be more likely to get sick.
It also depends on how sensitive your stomach is.
After they sprout, they also produce poisonous chemicals
That's what the de-eyeing tip of the vegetable peeler is for.
Why not? I find the greener parts of nightshades to be the most deliciously tingly
So people just throw out potatoes instead of coring the eyes? Feels super wasteful to me...
Never said to do that to the potato ;)
I am kind of sorry that I accidentally turned this into a potato discussion thread.
Please dont throw them away though, just cut out the sprouts. Theyre perfectly edible.
