I’m calling the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800.799.SAFE (7233) and they gave me some resources,
FindHelp.org and when you go there, put in your zip code, look for shelter, other services? access to housing, medical support
DomesticShelters.org put in zip code, in filters, click “services men” and look for your specific criteria
Let me know if you need any help with these, or planning, or anything?
He’s in prison. My comment was about prison. Media literacy matters.
Cool so should the default solution for every fucking problem be the same solution we apply to a guy that cracked someone’s skull open with a hammer?
I’m not saying this guy doesn’t deserve to be punished. I’m saying prison shouldn’t be the default solution for everything. People like you who defend the prison industrial complex are the reason it still exists. You are using your emotional reaction to one incident to justify a human rights crisis in your fucking backyard and it’s lazy and pathetic. Be a better person.
I’m not saying separation dangerous people from society is a bad one.
I’m saying prison shouldn’t be the default solution for every offense.
The USA has the highest number and percentage of incarcerated people anywhere in the world because everyone’s kneejerk response is, “but we need it for dangerous murderers!” instead of “it’s a human rights crisis that we’re allowing to happen in our backyards and we’re choosing to allow it to happen instead of doing the hard work of brainstorming and building an effective alternative”.
Got it, thank you for clarifying.
It wasn’t deliberate. I said, “the default setting should not be prison” and you replied “Yes, that is what the default should be.” so I read it as contrary. So I appreciate your response
Default setting should be prison? For marijuana possession?
For fucking getting an abortion???
Prison should not be the default setting for anything my dude.
If someone got you an uber, would you have a place to go?
Never call the police. They don’t prevent crime, they show up afterwards to hurt the person who did it. NEVER call them.
correct but we use the “attempted murder solution” on everything, which is the problem.
stop saying “prison should exist because of this one case”
there will always be extreme cases that need to be handled differently from the default setting. but the default setting should not be prison, it should be rehabilitation.
didn’t want to get side tracked by this one case
but getting hit with a bus was the ideas result for this guy lol
…now I feel bad …sorry …i regret it
I don’t need to offer an alternative.
It is enough to say “the current system doesn’t work for me and I want change.”
It literally looks dirty already and it’s a fucking jpg.
It’s because people are being conditioned to be hostile to each other. You’re suffering because of this attack of connectedness, not because of anything you’re doing wrong.
I haven’t really used it much over the last 20 years
League of Legends captures and discards the ALT-F4 keystroke combination.
Microsoft trusts app developers to use Microsoft’s standards (such as terminating the process when a close message is received) and they shouldn’t. App developers like Riot have taken advantage of this trust and tuned their apps to act differently than expected, and include code which makes the app minimize to the system tray instead, or force the user to answer questions (“Are you SURE you want to close?”), or do nothing at all.
It should be punishable by death.
Prison is our fucking answer to everything. No house? Prison. Said something bad? Prison. Had a bad month and hit somebody? Prison. Prison. Prison.
We lean on it as a convenient one-stop solution when we could instead do work to rehabilitate people, fix the problem, or prevent the problem from happening. The reason our prisons are overflowing is because no one is stepping up and saying, “maybe prison shouldn’t be our answer to every single societal problem.”
No you did, and you’re the one getting upset.
You should be. You’re supporting slavery.
