They really didn’t think it through.

That’s revolting, and would make me lose faith in humanity. What would you do differently today, if you were offered a similar order? Other than refusing, that is.

In OP’s defense, I think most cops don’t go and attack minorities daily, it’s probably more of a once a week thing. Most days they will just sit around, do nothing and eat donuts.

Looks like somebody’s day just got made. Hope you didn’t have anything important to do today.

I’m here thinking: “but gunshots are not a disease? Wait, gunshots ARE treated at hospitals, and probably take a lot more resources to treat than, say, a fever. So it does fall within his purview in my uninformed opinion.”

And then I thought “But why are people shooting each other? Maybe he should have declared a mental health crisis?”

So to conclude, I think it would be more productive to treat the mental health issue, and gun crimes should reduce. Of course, reducing the number and availability of guns would help too, but seems a harder problem to tackle.

I like your idea. Some kind of non-violent high reward fraud. If you don’t get caught, it’s free money. If you do, it’s all part of your plan.

How come it was 90 minutes by foot? A lot of roads without crossing?

Would it be so bad if we want back to how it was before? Just people making their own sites about things they cared about? For fun or the love of the subject matter?
