@CattleBaron I am pretty sure I knew that. They have that here in the USA more and more as well. It’s hard to excuse a super-long rap sheet unless you postmodernize (postmodernise) criminal law.
@CattleBaron I do love the Good Omens series. I really need to read the book. The books.
@CattleBaron sorry, I didn’t mean your name/handle, I meant:
> NSW government to abolish ‘good character’ evidence at sentencings of convicted offenders - ABC News
What is “good character” evidence and why would one remove it? Because it’s harder to release “good people with terrible character and rap sheets?”
Is this a way to allow people to release people who are considered to have bad characters but are vulnerable?
@abraham.su We had been really getting along …
@abraham.su yep!
@dictatordave I will just introduce myself a ABRAHAM :)

@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social Well I think they said that he had a concealed carry permit. Also, it had 100% to do with being a sanctuary city. Obviously ICE is going to go to where all the fish are. And sanctuary cities are extremely dense with undocumented immigrants.

@willbunch.bsky.social I love the use of language. I guess it’s just an incentive for one to self-deport; otherwise: concentration death camps! Booga booga!
@abraham.su I’m about 37 minutes into it when they’re doing the dance through the revolving door and it is such a lovely show so thank you for reminding me and it is quite lovely and so appealing.
@abraham.su Hey thanks for the reminder I totally did not go and watch that and I will watch it now, Extraordinary Attorney Wu. Wow it is beautifully filmed, isn’t it?
@dtm I get that!
That one is “unavailable” on Amazon www.amazon.com/dp/B00251…

@abraham.su It’s true. Death by crow is a worthy way to die.
@abraham.su I know! Once I start feeding them, I am told they really hate it when and if I ever stop. Which is why I got an entire 5lb bag.
@peachiikimaf.bsky.social Hyperbolic much?
Sorry…
HYPERBOLIC MUCH?
@bartenderhemry.bsky.social Good try.
@Justaslave makes sense to me.
@dictatordave East Range.
> “The East Range Training Area on Oahu, part of the Schofield Barracks complex, is a critical U.S. Army training ground east of the main post, used for realistic, intensive training like Air Assault School, land navigation, jungle tactics, and live-fire exercises, supporting the 25th Infantry Division and developing agile leaders for Pacific operations, with frequent training alerts issued for community awareness.”

> “Dutch Army DPM (Disruptive Pattern Material), adopted in the 1960s, uses a four-color macro-micro brushstroke layout in green, brown, tan, and black. Designed for temperate European terrain, its overlapping strokes break up the human silhouette at both close and long range, blending foliage, shadow, and soil rather than relying on digital pixelation.”
@realcaseyrollins Tim’s been saying that for a decade now. Even a broken (analog) clock is accurate twice a day.
@realcaseyrollins “protested” is carrying a lot of weight in this comment.
@realcaseyrollins I think that’s the uncomfortable truth. You can’t normalize physically interfering with armed federal officers and pretend the risk isn’t real. Resistance has consequences, whether people like the agency or not. Earlier civil-rights movements were explicit about that risk and owned it. What worries me now is the mismatch between rhetoric and reality: people act as if escalation is impossible, then act shocked when it happens. That denial doesn’t protect anyone.
