What an absolutely terrible headline…”Women killed after shooting at police” would be much more accurate.

Reply to Reel mower sharpening service? by enemy_of_your_enema
Why don’t you just buy a new blade? It has to be less of a frustration and, at least for my mower, cheaper.

Reply to Is Pittsburgh a chain restaurant city? by thehofstetter
I’d say somewhere in the middle, definitely a lot of good independent places. But chains seem ever present and very popular, especially local chains.

HSWA says the call was a mistake if you call their main line.

I was wondering when 300k became “affordable.” We all know the 300k plan is as bare bones as it gets too

I’ll die on this hill, Cincy is nothing like Pitt. I have friends who live there and visit yearly. Other than the topography the cities couldn’t be any more different

Morgantown was too obvious of an answer?

Wow, must make you feel nice to dehumanize entire groups of people because you think you are better than them.

I’m glad to see you think 120 jobs don’t matter, I’m sure they do to the people who hold them. I’m sure someone else took those tech jobs so the people you know leaving really doesn’t matter in the end

Absolutely nothing, and honestly there are a lot of people whose livelihood depends on that place so you probably wouldn’t want to if you could.

It’s definitely illegal and you could get sued for any damage you cause.

Lol at the idea that the entire job is just showing up and voting.
But, fine, it’s like telling my employer for my side gig that I want to take leave and have them pay me while I interview for a new side gig.
Either way, it’s dumb that elected officials can run for office while currently sitting in office.
Not only that, but it creates conflicts of interest and opportunities for corruption. It just begs for quid pro quo: “support me in the next election bc if you do I’ll vote yes on the issue in front of me right now.”

Why not? Don’t you find it strange that politicians essentially stop doing their job for large portions of time in order to essentially interview for a new job? It would be like if I took a leave of absence so that I could apply for a new job and expected my employer to continue paying me during that time. Look at how literally everything in DC or the statehouse stops during election time. If anything this rule should be applied to all politicians, not just county council.

Yeah, so let’s use the headline to imply the police shot first with absolutely no evidence of that whatsoever…riiiight.
