Penetration itself can be viewed as an act of violence and the government should probably put everyone who has thought about it on a surveillance list.

Citizens United made it worse, but we were fucked before then. Lobbying is just legalized bribery. We need to repeal Citizens United but then we need to keep going and rework the whole campaign finance and lobbying systems too.

Yeah Nissan has been shit for 20 years, not surprising that it's catching up to them.

Cops in the USA, as well as being scum, are terrified. The population has almost no access to mental health care, near unlimited access to guns, and many reasons to not trust the police. The police are also trained as "warriors" instead of guardians with a us vs them mentality. I'd imagine besides the legal ramifications, Uk and Eu police are just not as scared shitless and therefore don't start popping off when an acorn hits their car or a 13 year old has a stick.
