Just read that a % of people are skipping 2nd vaccine bc they fear side effects. Reading Twitter one would think everyone gets side effects. So for a little balance, hubs & I have ~zero effects from 2nd Pfizer. He's a little tired. I scrubbed the tub and made muffins today.
Since people are asking, thr muffins are grated pear & fresh ginger with cardamom and pine nuts.
And here's what I was reading

OK, let's talk about the warrant thing, since it's coming up in the Daunte conversation. Right now the conversation is grief and outrage and it feels inappropriate to dig in, but people are raising it, so there are some things you should know about "having a warrant out"
I was a public defender for the better part of a decade. I have represented thousands of people. People get warrants *all the time* everywhere for *all kinds of reasons*

Work
Job interview
School
No childcare
Sick
No transportation
And yes, sometimes bc they didn't want to go
The VAST MAJORITY of times I have seen warrants issued it's bc of things outside one's control (work, lack of transit, lack of childcare are the biggies). Forgetting is also a thing, and it's important to note that the #1 best way to stop that kind of warrant is...a text message.

So...I'm reflecting today on when defunding police results in reduced budgets and reallocation. And I'm thinking abotu what I learned about minimizing policing as a public defender. A short thread.
Obviously, the best world is when we replace policing with better, more restorative and beneficial resources and services for community members. But the first logical step in this journey is always cutting back on what we have police do. This actually already happens all the time
When I practiced in the Bronx, every once in a while the police would throw a fit and refuse to do anything more than "necessary" arrests. And we were all like...great? Should we *always* only be arresting people when necessary?

Like, if you find yourself confused, ask yourself:

Does it have a face?
Can it cry?
Can I hug it?
Does it have a favorite food?
Does it ever go to the doctor?

These are all helpful ways to tell if something might be a person, should you find yourself in the struggle.
I was careful to make my standard inclusive. Notice that dolphins are probably people.

But Waffle Heaven is not.

I'm just sitting here thinking about how utterly disgusting it is the @LADAOffice let @IamMRMOSELY out of jail as soon as the voters repudiated Lacey

Just confirms prosecutorial decision making based on what they can get away with rather than what is right
OH MY GOD PEOPLE READ THE TWEET

I am CELEBRATING Drakeo getting out and CALLING OUT HOW CORRUPT THE PROSECUTORS ARE

Just heard deputy Attorney General Rosen on @WYPublicRadio NORTH talking about the Purdue settlement. He said that the law doesn't allow you to strip someone of all of their assets because of wrongdoing, but you have to analyze the crime and have a proportionate response... 1/2
... would he please advise thousands of DAs across the nation who routinely strip people not only of their assets but of their right to vote or their right to parenthood on the basis of conduct far less serious than creating an opioid epidemic?
As always, my point is that we need to treat ordinary people better, not that we need to treat everybody worse. In case that wasn't obvious.

Hey, if you are wildly swept up in a new cycle that moves way too fast, like me, you may have missed the fact that D Cameron admitted the only charge he submitted to the Breonna Taylor grand jury was wanton endangerment.

washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/09…
This means the Attorney General knew that any grand jury was basically gonna indict those cops of whatever he put in front of them. So he didn't give them the option to hold anyone accountable for Taylor's death.
He lied to the people of his state.

He lied to you.

He walked into a space where he was supposed to be a prosecutor and did not carry out his duty, as that duty would be carried out against any ordinary person.
