      First mossy giving a to her son posting a XX video, and now this
      Video? I thought XX might be half strength XXXX. Rumour has it that its called XXXX because Queenslanders can't spell beer. (can't make it properly either).

        Many years ago I worked in a liquor store during the Summer where a delivery driver made his mark on invoices and I had to put my initials beside them.

        He also had difficulties reading time off an old analogue clock (which were still the overwhelming majority)

        I'm always still in trouble again

        • So, yet ANOTHER up to date examination of the "facts" of the Uvalde shooting...

          Fact check roundup: What's true and what's false about the mass school shooting in Uvalde, Texas

          An array of sometimes conflicting information has emerged since a mass shooting left 19 elementary school students and two teachers dead and injured 17 others, at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school. Officials' statements about the day of the shooting have shifted, policymakers and voters have debated gun control and high levels of emotion about the shooting have all combined to create an environment ripe for the spread of misinfomation.

          USA TODAY's fact check team has analyzed an array of false and misleading claims related to the Uvalde tragedy, including assertions about the gunman, the nature of the shootings and gun policy in the U.S.


          Example...

          Claims about the shooting and its aftermath

          Claim: An off-duty Border Patrol agent killed the Texas school shooting suspect

          Our rating: False

          Tens of thousands of users online shared a post claiming that off-duty CBP officer Jacob Albarado took down the suspected gunman at Robb Elementary School. However, Albarado was not part of the tactical team that shot Salvador Ramos. He helped children evacuate from the building, but he never went inside the school.

          • Well, this might be interesting...

            Uvalde Police Chief Arredondo Gave Money to Campaign of Anti-Gun Robert ‘Beto’ O’Rourke Who Now Promises to Confiscate AR-15s

            The outrages following the mass murders of 19 school children and two adults in Uvalde, Texas last week continue to emerge as we learn more about the tragedy, including a little detail about the city’s police chief.

            Uvalde Schools Police Chief Peter Arredondo donated a total of $17 to Act Blue and $5 of it was “earmarked for Beto.” The $10 donation was earmarked, “Need to Impeach.” And while the amount donated was not much, it certainly shows his political affiliation and ideology: That citizens should not be able to own the most popular self-defense rifle in the country.

            You may recall that year Robert “Beto” O’Rourke, formerly a Democratic member of Congress, was running for governor against current GOP Gov. Greg Abbott. After he lost that race, he decided to run for president and entered the Democratic primary sweepstakes. During a debate, he famously said, “Hell yes, we’re coming after your AR-15s.” Indeed, that ‘pledge’ inspired now-Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), who owns a restaurant in Rifle, Colo., where wait staff are required to wear a sidearm, to run for Congress.

            “The police chief of the Uvalde CISD Police donated money to ActBlue in December of 2017 that was earmarked for… Beto O’Rourke. Can’t make it up,” noted political commentator Pete D’Abrosca.
            They haven't really confirmed if that's actually our chief scumbag though. Hopefully the internet sleuths, of which I'm not, will do some deeper dives.


            ETA: seems the internet sleuths might have debunked it...

                I wonder if Laura Ingraham will have any comment on that, since she eagerly interviewed the CBP hero on her show.

                  And did he indicate that he did, indeed, shoot the shooter?

                      I'm beginning to think we're never really going to know for sure because of so many changes in so many aspects of the story.

                      • WOW....

                        Uvalde, Texas school district police chief didn't have radio with him when responding to mass shooting: Report

                        The school district police chief who was one of the first officers to arrive at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, didn't have a police radio with him when responding to the incident, according to a report.

                        Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Department Chief Pete Arredondo didn't have a police radio with him when responding to a shooting at the elementary school which left 19 children and two adults dead on May 24, according to a report from the New York Times.

                        Arredondo's lack of an available police radio could have slowed law enforcement's response to the shooting, according to the report.

                        Arredondo used a cell phone to call a police landline, informing them of the active shooter situation.


                        Absolutely amazing.

                          Do we know for sure chief scumbag didn't have a radio or is that just what he's claiming? Just incompetence or malice?

                            What possible advantage would there be for him to claim not to have a radio? That would be an admission of total ineptitude.

                              It makes it easier for him to claim that he didn't know kids were actively being shot. Easier to plead ineptitude (especially since he already has a guaranteed cushy job on the city council that he got quietly sworn into this week), than total depravity.

                                Meh --- it would show how out of touch he was as incident commander -- literally.

                                "Cushy job"? Do they get paid? A lot?

                                And - total depravity? Somebody can really suck at their job and be totally unqualified (hence my observation that I didn't seem him as a "real cop", over which you became so irritated) and not be "totally depraved".
