I'm of the opinion that a toxic PD is just the most obvious symptom of a corrupt/toxic local government - the good ol' boy system devolved into it's penultimate form. Wealthy business people with ruthless contempt of the underclasses get elected, run the place into the ground via good old fashioned graft, and mold the police department into their praetorian guard.
FTFY

Okay, but seriously could we stop acting like all these cases of police abuse are just the because of poverty or mental illness or something? We tried just focusing poverty and shit for a while, but all that amounted to very little with the southern strategy and Ronnie's War on drugs.

Hell, for a while during reconstruction blacks almost had a shot at achieving social progress, and it was FUBARed thanks to a combination of vigilantes, law enforcement, and Jim Crow.

Poverty, while not the only reason the situation has reached a boiling point, is a pretty big symptom of the problem black America faces.

I know that, what I'm saying is that it's useless to focus on poverty if you don't fix institutionalize racism first.

That's...kind of a kick to the stomach.  A much-needed one for some folks, but still, damn.

It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

To quote a friend of mine on this one:  "The Universe is cold, uncaring, and does its very best to kill you dead every single moment you exist."
There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

*huggles the sad bull-doggeh*

I think they should just go with the name "Staffordshire Terrier" or "Staffordshire Bulldog" or simply a "Staffordshire". "Pit Bull" is just nasty sounding and refers to their history as dog-fighting dogs.

While they do have an innate excitable temper & ludicrously huge jaw strength, it's still awful how they're looked upon as four-legged abominations from Inferno. With a lot of love & good care, they're just another lovable, loyal, intelligent, cute dog.

Pete from the Our Gang/Little Rascals & Buster Brown's pooch sidekick, Tige, were Staffordshires....nobody saw them as the pooch equivalent of 1954 Godzilla!

And looook.....

.....KAWAII

Actually, Staffies and Pits are different breeds and the bite strength Pits have is actually less than German Shepherds and Rottweilers.
