Mass casualties in Waukesha

Yeah, by the literal interpretation of it things would have to get pretty dire in this country before you'd have a situation where it applies as compared to other overlapping Constitutional protections like the Fourth Amendment. But I was thinking with some of the modern technology and spyware and surveillance possibilities available to the government now, there might be situations where its intent (keeping the government from having a permanent snooping presence in people's homes) comes into play.

 

Hadn't thought about placing tech into homes. That could be the next big application that finally gets the Third incorporated. Though I think the court will dodge the Third Amendment with that and instead cover it under the Fourth with things like spyware and snooping.

 

So it really should be the 3rd Appendment ...

 

My wife has a part-time gig in local government. She learned yesterday that a co-worker's sister is involved in the high school marching band that was in the parade. He was on the sidewalk with one of his kids and sister's two girls. Apparently they saw the whole thing. Kids are traumatized, having nightmares.

 

The ignore feature is a beautiful thing. (Says she who is probably o plenty of lists.)

 

I'd like this but I didn't see it.

 

The new Trumpist talking point is that the media is moving on too quickly from this to the Omicron COVID variant. That one got me to unfollow a few people on Twitter.

 

You'd think they'd be soaking their panties over the omicron variant, since they'll argue it appeared under Biden.

 

Not sure how this would benefit the libruhls.

 

We got to talking about Waukesha over Thanksgiving, and my brother brought up a good point: every parade we had in my hometown had multiple police cars bringing up the rear, driving side-by-side with lights on to indicate that the parade was over and traffic could resume. Why didn't this parade have that?

 

Because the dude driving was supposedly a virulent racist and ran over white people on purpose. The narrative being if a white person ran over a Black parade the media would never let go
