Yeah - that's all part of the "unless enough people leave" point.

It really depends on the market though - if it's not an essential good, it doesn't need to be replaced (online games). If there's adequate competition, there's largely undifferentiated alternatives (utilities around me)... and if not, you probably don't have a choice (your local government services, monopolies, and shallow markets for essential goods).

The lawyers will only clean the city out - when the cops fuck around, it's everyone else that finds out.

Better to just execute them on the spot - you don't want them slipping out of the cuffs, then have your partner's widow asking "why didn't you just shoot them?"

People are already searched upon arrest, and I don't think most people are inclined to try to fistfight a pair of cops armed with batons, tasers and guns from the back of a cop car. It's not necessary in most of the rest of the world - are the residents of the land of the free so inherently prone to violence that they should be locked up just in case?

Unless they hate it enough to ditch a business or service in great enough numbers that it costs the business more money than they save by outsourcing to a computer, people had better get used to it.

I'm inclined to think that his brain damage was the root cause (which led to accepting the ~~bribes~~ donations) - the timing was right, and only the brain-damaged would be Zionist at this point.

I guess what they needed was a good guy with a gun, eh?

Who'd have thought Business Insider would be running interference for the neoliberal slide into end-stage capitalism, by blaming those worst affected by the collapse for the symptoms that are fucking them over?

Ah - You must be referring to the ones that funded and backed Hamas's rise to power over the secular moderates with predictable results...

Israel.

He denied threatening the driver with arrest, but kept threatening him with obstruction, which is a secondary charge unless I'm mistaken.

So what if now hear me out we do none of that, and do number go up instead - you know - for the shareholders?

That's bound to work out great with their history of crashing...
