323 school shootings at K-12 this year
Okay. Can I get a hotline to call when a corporation fucks me over in some way?
Best we can do is send a cop to your house to shoot your dog.
Really goes to show who exactly the police work for.
We need to give our executives the tools they need to protect themselves from these violet threats. Tools like the ability to quickly roll back all machiavellian policies and practices before they can become a real danger to the policy makers.
Deny Delay DEFUND.
don’t the police normally setup hotlines for these sorts of things all the time? Including tips for investigations?
This isn’t a second 911, this is a subsection of 911 intended for threats against people.
If there’s a news source I trust it’s kenklippenstein.com
hey it’s the guy that accidentally doxxed JD vance and got banned on twitter for it!
There are two things that the aftermath of Luigi’s action has made poignantly clear to pretty much everybody:
- That the vast majority of people no matter their party affiliation and political leanings is feeling the pain and hates the abuses that carry on being committed by a minority of people in our system with total impunity … until Luigi.
- That the Ju$tice System, the Police and most of the Press, unlike what they claim work for that minority of people, not for the rest of us.
It’s amazing just how certain parts of the system that are supposed to work for everybody (such as in this case the Police, and in other cases large parts of the Press with their “poor CEO” articles) are pretty much shouting loud and clear for all to hear that “we’re not working for you, we work for the ones that abuse you”.
Most people just discovered now with this killing of a hated CEO that what they individually felt about certain things was also felt by almost everybody, and then these bought-and-paid-for minions who for decades have been putting a lot of effort in passing themselves as “working for the community” just repeatedly and overtly signal to everybody else their true minion-of-the-rich nature.
Mind you, as a Leftie who has been skeptical of whose those elements of the current system for decades, I’m happy they’re basically outing themselves and they should keep on doing it so that everybody sees them for what they really are and who they really serve,
Trauma team from cyberpunk becomes more real every second of every day
Simple solution: Don’t murder them in New York.
Ideally don’t murder people, but if you want to blend in, Chicago works in a pinch.
If I’m reading this right it’s worse than that.
You know how when you go to the police to report a stalker or someone threatening you and they just kind of roll their eyes and tell you there’s nothing they can do? And you’re left getting a useless restraining order that’s going to do nothing but feature in the news and trial after you get murdered?
This is a hotline for rich people to report stalkers and threats specifically to be acted on. But I also wouldn’t be surprised if they whitelist their phones to be at the front of any queue for 911.
i mean tbf, this is like complaining about the president being protected by the secret service.
Except it’s not at all. We elect the president and give him/her special privilege with that vote. I don’t and would not vote for my tax dollars to pay for billionaires getting special protection.
Maybe set up something like Disney Pass, or whatever it’s called. Let the CEOs pay for preferential 911 service. And make them pay a LOT.
It’s called private security
With each move, the elite prove that they think lowly of the common man.
In a sense I suppose you’re right, but now you’ll see it far more readily deployed, even on a whim
A hotline won’t solve the issue.
They’re doing this to make rich CEOs feel better, and to provide a way for CEOs to directly sic the police on anyone they consider threatening.
This is like the Trauma Team in Cyberpunk. Rich people who can afford the highest tier get a private militarized swat team to go to them any time they’re in trouble.
Well you haven’t changed that much then. That killed me. British comedy really is better about social and government stuff.
America needs to play this on every channel at least once a week for the next four years. So we can reference it every time Trump brings up selling off the FBI to the Pinkertons.
A Bit of Fry and Laurie is criminally underrated in the US, but a lot of it is very topical to the UK.
Trauma team charges 100 Eddies per minute from when you call them until they deliver you to the hospital, plus spend ammunition and medical supplies. They waive the charge if they need 7 minutes or more to get to you, though. (Not relevant in gameplay, as their response time is 1d6 minutes). And they have heavy weapons to fight their way through to you. So, their services are sort of reasonably priced for what they offer. And even if you don’t earn the big bucks, if you live in a Arasaka living facility and eat kibble, you should have enough saved up to pay for their services if you end up needing them. (Of course, living in an Arasaka living facility may lead to you needing their services)
Point being, “Cyberpunk 2020”'s healthcare system is better than America’s.
They’re less like SWAT more like US Air Force PJs. Basically super heavily trained paramedics who are also special operations troops.
Except it’s not even private, it’s funded by public taxes, which is EVEN WORSE THAN CYBERPUNK
What jobs did those kids create? They still can’t even find their bootstraps.
