What a safe country to live in!
This could be the bloodiest 'forgot to carry the one' incident that everyone just ran with in American history.
Broken clocks and what have you.
Each bullet means you're even freer!
Roadblocks to data-driven business management are falling, and a better bottom line awaits.
If the Reviser were alive today, maybe we'd give him qualified immunity for all the lives he's ruined.
'But how can I do my job if I can't choke out handcuffed people who pose no imminent threat?' - Some cop who thinks he's a good apple.
* We just might be one step closer to "qualified immunity" no longer being a "license to kill." [Reason] * Florida's medical malpractice law keeps litigants in the dark. [WFLA] * Come June 12th, it'll be even easier to carry guns in Ohio. No way this will lead to more mourning mothers! [WTOL] * Philly wants to reinstate a law that requires the reporting of lost or stolen firearms within 24 hours. [Axios] * We don't do that here: The 9th Circuit rules that plaintiffs don't have to decline the option to arbitrate medical malpractice claims for federal court. [Claims Journal]
How could they have known?
These tools demonstrate that information is power.
Let the jury do its job.
* Officers talk race and sex in the uniform. I'm sure the "back the blue" folks will rush at this opportunity to create a safer workplace for the women in blue. [NBC Washington] * New Orleans police will be deputizing citizens to enforce the law. Don’t worry, it’s apparently more hall monitor-y than what Philadelphia did. [The Lens] * After New Jersey opened up applications for weed growers, manufacturers and testing lab operators, people quickly dispensed with their applications. [App] * With great power comes great responsibility. Especially if they get rid of qualified immunity in Vermont. [Burlington Free Press] * New York is broadening the reach of its whistleblower protections and passing a digital workplace monitoring law. I wonder if either of these statutes will have a section on the proper use of emojis in emails. [National Law Review]
It's easy to back the blue when they're all black belts.
* A light start: The Supreme Court hears on the legality of SB8 today. [FiveThirtyEight] * Former CEO of the ROC distinguishes between an ad and a commercial during an $18M civil lawsuit over perfume. [Law360] * Qualified immunity ambiguity continues to make it difficult to determine when Blue Lives are Reasonable. [Law.com] * New York passes a "Keep That S*&t Down!" law that aims to quiet the streets. [SILive]
Absolutely devastating critique.
