• The officers only wanted a warrant for Breonna because of her ties to a known drug dealer. But she was never actually involved with anything to do with selling drugs. The warrant was obtained using false info that the LMPD detectives got from a Shively police officer. Nothing was done to verify it. A judge signed off on it.

• The police claimed they announced themselves before busting the door in, but 12 (TWELVE) witnesses who lived in the apartments claimed they didnt hear any of that. The only thing anyone heard was the door being busted in and then gunshots. One of those 12 witnesses barely spoke english and they continued calling this person in for questioning for months until this person FINALLY said that he thought he heard them announce themselves. They then said they have a witness claiming to have heard them announce themselves.

• Kenneth Walker only fired his gun because all he heard was banging at the door and then the door was busted in. And as previously mentioned there were numerous witnesses saying the cops did not announce themselves. Literally anyone who owns a gun would have done the same thing in Kenneth Walker’s situation.

• Then of course the actual shooting happened, there were two cops firing from the door way while a third cop started firing through the glass patio door that was covered by a shade. Breonna was killed in the hallway.

• After this was all said and done they had already arrested the drug dealer they were after. They were only trying to go after Breonna to strengthen their case. They could have simply called her in for questioning and had no reason to believe that she would have ran. And then we also learn that they had a phone call from the drug dealer saying that Breonna was holding money for him which is why they wanted her so bad. That would not have been enough evidence for the warrant, which is why they lied to get one.

• All of this info and tons more was in the leaked grand jury documents. It is incredible that anyone could look at these facts and say it was Kenneth Walkers fault that his girlfriend was killed by cops while he watched her die.

• police went to the postal inspector before getting the warrant, who told them she had nothing to do with it. They falsified his statement in the warrant application saying he actually did, and then threatened him to stay silent after they murdered Breonna.

• They also didn’t pursue medical assistance for her until 45 minutes had passed.

• Remember, LMPD narcotics cops had a problem where what got checked into the evidence room wasn't what they reported on scene, so they stopped having to report what they found on scene. They were 100% there to steal that money.

• During the emotional but peaceful protests, police killed a local BBQ restaurant owner, David McAtee and left his body laying in the street uncovered for hours.

• Cops showed up the PEACEFUL protests looking for violence, they threatened, taunted, tried their best to incite it. They abused peaceful protestors.

• Greg Fischer, who was mayor at the time, and Craig Greenburg, currently mayor have done fuck all to get control of the police department.

Louisville Metro Police Department is so incredibly crooked. If you call them up, they’re not coming. Forget it. “We don’t have enough officers to send one out.” But when one dies there’s a whole armada of them going down the highway.

They also just got a pay raise.

This doesn’t even cover the Kentucky state Police, who used actual Hitler quotes in their training material and it was kept quiet until a high school newspaper did some digging.

I could go on all day about this. All cops are bastards. That’s not just a cute little slogan. It’s not just a few rotten apples or poor training or unfortunate oversights. All policing is racist at its core. All cops are class traitors. I’ll talk about this all damn day.

And as a lifelong golf hater my first thought was “LMAO get wrecked,” followed by “Actually it’s kind of weird they totally abandoned it. I’ve never seen an abandoned golf course, what’s the deal with that.”

So I looked into it.

The golf course was on Enoch Creek Nation west of Edmonton in Alberta.

It was closed in 2014 because unexploded WWII munitions were found on the golf course.

Unexploded WWII munitions were found on the golf course because during WWII the Canadian government ran bomb exercises on Enoch Cree Nation and dropped up to 100,000 live rounds on the nation.

The golf course was built because residents were told that only harmless practice rounds were used during the exercises, and the Department of National Defence declared the land safe for use.

But then in 2011 an independent contractor found evidence of live, heavy-action explosives on the golf course.

but the thing is: only *most* got filled to some extent

not all

because there used to be dragons

and now their niche is just *empty*

it's like i can feel the gap they left, in everything from open grassland ecosystems to isolated islands; the world we know is shaped by the absence of a truly big flying predator

no bird could ever fill their niche, because of plain and simple anatomical constraints

because they cannot use their wings to jump

birds could never be azdarchids

they could never be dragons

there are no more dragons

but there used to be

I hate this man. I hate this party.
