Just. Goddamnit. I read so much of this article before I realized I had a mouth full of onion. Bravo.

"No one is even trying to shoot up Meadows Ridge College or the Oceanside Charter School!"

Onion has been in fire lately

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It's not the onion. I've never seen this site before.

The bold new scent

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

You’re right. I was looking at the community

As the cop in South Park said after a kid was killed in town, "Dammit! Outside school is the one place kids are supposed to be safe!"

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 54 points 1 day ago

Fucking brutal. That's a hell of a good connection.

Hunh! I really thought the bus would be a lot shorter.

More like being a school "security" officer?

Either way... At this point, it is kinda like enlisted during the Iraq surge

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, school "security officers" are there to brutalize unruly children and get the middle school to life in prison pipeline started.

In contrast, Trump's SS officers are charged with protecting the most childish fascist cult leader from the consequences of his words and actions.

Both make the world a worse, more bleak place, though, I'll give you that.

I get massive whiplash every time someone abbreviates the secret service

[–] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

It's supposed to be usss, ss is a bit dickish, even with his political alignment.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

Nah, he's a literal fascist. It might be dickish to the secret service given a different context, but my comment was clearly aimed at him rather than them.

That's not fair, he didn't run away from the gunman!

Maybe that's just Texas.
