    This is not so much as WTF as it is an OMG.

    Bodycam video of a shooting incident involving the Louisville KY police department two days ago.
    Three different perspectives from three different officers, including one that was injured.

    Riveting!

    I didn't know cops shoot through their own windshields in time of need, that was a intense video.

    I totally expected to see the suspect running to jump on his hood the way he was firing out of the window after being like 4th on scene. Maybe he was having a "Keanu Reeves" moment.;)

    How is it acceptable to show a video of a guy being shot to death in here but you aren't allowed to criticize the president?? Who makes the rules around here??

    Maybe it's just me, but I don't get the concept behind "I'm not going to eat meat because <whatever> but I'll gladly eat this super-heavily machine-processed stuff that mimics the very thing I'm choosing not to eat"....


    Yankees-Tested Vegan Sausage Going National at Whole Foods

    [​IMG]

    The next generation of vegan meat now includes sausage made from peas, beets and coconut oil. And you can have one with a beer while watching the Yankees play in the Bronx.

    Beyond Meat, the plant-based protein company backed by Bill Gates and Tyson Foods Inc., rolled out one of its newest products -- vegan bratwurst -- at Yankee Stadium this season. And now it’s launching the brats, as well as sweet and hot Italian sausages, nationally at Whole Foods.

    Sales at the company doubled last year as it expanded its namesake Beyond Burger into thousands of grocery stores, including Safeway, Kroger and Target. The burger, along with its competitor from Impossible Foods, is part of a new generation of vegan meat substitutes that promise to mimic the taste of real ground beef, replete with blood and grill-produced sizzle.

    Beyond Burger got its start at Whole Foods, where health-conscious shoppers have long sought out niche vegan products. It’s now being sold in the meat case at conventional stores across the U.S. and and is also on the menu at thousands of restaurants, including mainstream chains like TGI Fridays.

    Ethan Brown, chief executive officer of the El Segundo, California-based company, said he thinks the new plant-based sausage will have similar appeal as more consumers, including high-profile athletes, try to eat less meat.

    Beyond Sausage is already on the menu at a handful of restaurants in Chicago and New York, and at a Yankee Stadium outpost of restaurant chain Bareburger.

    You’d be amazed at the amount of advanced firing positions that are taught. But yeah, you don’t see it that often.

    Not everyone chooses to go vegetarian or vegan or whatever for health reasons. Back in my idealistic days I went vegetarian for almost two years after watching a documentary on factory farming (it was the 90's, public wasnt as aware as today). Of course I gave that up a long time ago, but we still mainly buy meat from local farms that I pass on my way to work or running errands and can see the cattle grazing, pigs rooting, and chickens free ranging.

    Oh yeah, I get that there are other reasons -- I've known folks who went vegetarian/vegan/whatever for the same anti-factory-farm reasons.

    I'm just saying it seems to me like declaring oneself as celibate while polishing the knob to animated porn.
