The official "WTF" thread

Had the guy came out to talk to them, all of this would not of happened. I get the No Warrant issue but I bet he knew he was going to get arrested too like his wife and this is why he did not come out?
Glad things in the end went his way, though he lost his job and no telling how much money in court/atty cost.
While watching this all I could think of is rogue cops doctoring the videos with AI and changing his Sue word to Shoot.
I really see alot of this in our future. It is too easy now adays to AI someone into saying anything you want them to say.
The old phrase "I'll believe it when I see it" will become extinct, if people are truly in touch with what the future holds with AI.

Americans need to be safe in their homes, and when one compares the power of the State vs the individual, .. well, there are great reasons why the USA has the Bill of Rights as an effort to check the power of an abusive state.
When deep state actors ( in this case the LEOs ) behave in corrupt ways, there needs to be a corrective response. We should apply this to all those who work for the US taxpayer.

We will have to now add more forensics and crypto hashes to videos / audio ..

I dont like the way college football is going. I also don't think this story has anything to do with Notre Dame. It's good that some young men - ball players did what they could, but i think ND players would have done the same. I'm a big Bama fan and feel this is a good story until they made it about a teams decision to not play a meaningless bowl game. ... and i dislike ND but this is low for whoever tried to equate the too things.
Colleges will be able to pay their players???...this is wrong on so many levels. I use to love to watch College Ball, where we moved we get no local channels and I never paid ESPN or any Sports Channels Streaming service. We hosted Thanksgiving this year, family members logged into their Streaming Services so we could watch the A&M and UT game. Keep in mind it has been two years since I watched a game.

What the heck, seemed like every player that was announced was a transfer student from another college. Found out these kids are running to other colleges for the money offered. They have Zero Loyalty for a home college, or any college, they chase the dollar now. The big rich colleges will buy the best players...very sad...
I know, I know they have always done this under the table, but who is next High Schools?
Also, what the heck, we watched a NFL game, on the kick off NO ONE WAS RUNNING from the kicking team when the ball was kicked. Whatha ??? This new rule is to lower injuries I was told. Wow, I have not watched a game in a couple of years and all of this nonsense is now at play. What is next bubble wrapping players? The world already laughs at us for all the protective gear we have to wear. World Rugby, Soccer...
Lastly, some of my best football days were sandlot football. Add a wet raining field and we had a blast playing. When you tackle someone you would slide 10 20 yards, haha, now that was fun...oh and get this, we were all barefooted...I even remember breaking my small toe once and walking home on it dangling from my foot, it was a bloody toe by the time I got home, just wrapped it with pop sickle sticks...I don't see any kids playing Ball in vacant lots anymore...
Heck, too many kids/teens/young men today will show up in the ER with a hangnail or calling 9-1-1 if they break a pinkie toe on the foot of the bed trying to make it to the bathroom in the dark.

I think we can blame small family sizes and single moms for a lot of this ..
back in the day of "free range" children .. moms did not have much time to brood over the munchkins

Geez, mom....he's 14 for God's sake!
It's pretty much already a done deal.

Back in those days if you cut yourself they would say rub some dirt on it, that will stop the bleeding. I doubt too many kids nowadays build up natural immunities like we did.
Momma's spit on a hanky was a universal solvent that would, with a little elbow grease, remove anything unwanted from your face, around your mouth or anywhere on your body.
And some deja vu here, as I believe we covered this a couple of years ago.....the saviour of the day for scraped knees and finger cuts was merthiolate. Just one swipe of the glass applicator after being dipped in the mercury-dosed orange liquid would turn wimpers of slight discomfort into screams of agony from a hapless 5 year old!
In adddition, if my mom had quit buying Camphophenique or S.T.37 somebody would have gotten laid off at the place that made them!
