  • Not always the greatest fun. I got “pulled over” walking home one time. I was cutting through a plaza as my complex was behind it. Thankfully in Florida it isn’t illegal to be drunk in public, it’s only illegal to be disorderly or a threat to yourself/others. Which makes sense to me, if you don’t have an open container and aren’t yelling at strangers, walking home is the best option many times. That said it was also ruled years ago in Florida that having a bag of mushrooms in your pocket isn’t illegal. As the courts rules the standard person cannot discern whether or not a mushroom is psychosomatic… Thus people should be able to walk around with foraged or store bought mushrooms as it’s their freedom to enjoy them.




  • Oh I’m sure they aren’t great people. They make most of their money off swindling insurance companies for huge settlement offers due to work/car injuries. That said, if you’re trying to get a huge settlement from Walmart, they are probably a good bet though. Also I know they turned down a case years ago when my dad went to them about his mother. She had surgery where there was no cartilage left in her ankle. They decided to screw her ankle to her foot essentially making it unable to move but reduce the pain. When she was in recovery they kept forcing her to get up and walk on it and she kept saying it hurt to much. Weeks into the rehab they said she wasn’t trying to put in the work. Then after a lot of arguing we finally got them to do new X-rays. Of course they found hairline fractures around the screws they placed. The insurance company/Medicaid and what not all said they wouldn’t cover any rehab time after the fractures were found because that time was used up during the period they were trying to force her to walk on a botched surgery. Morgan and Morgan turned down the case, and she reverse mortgaged her house to cover the rehab time. America at its finest





  • Whoever killed that Deathcare CEO had a positive impact, then billionaires spent a lot of time and money to try to turn the narrative. Note there were a lot of conservatives that werent against it until they watched a week and a half of propaganda to find out what they believed again. I think it showed a few people that the healthcare system is flawed, and clearly the justice system is. Was it 300 million, no. Was it 3 million, maybe. Even if 1% learned something from it, I’d say that’s huge for a population this late in the capitalism game



  • $1000 is a felony here. And less than that is up to a year in jail and $2500 fine.

    No they aren’t going to physically stop you, they are going to call the police, and report your tags and report your face.

    Yes jail and prison are different. People wind up on probation for stealing less than $50 worth of things. Unless everyone is stealing from the place all the time, it is always worth it on their end to report stupid shit like that. Keeps police around their parking lot, which cuts down on more crime. They aren’t going to report everything, but you’re not taking a 65" TV out the front door which is only about $400-500 dollars without getting a call


  • I heard two people yesterday at work saying they won’t arrest you if you have less than 1200 dollars worth of stuff. They’ll just follow you around until you get to that much. People are idiots that believe the dumbest things. Anyone who thinks they are going to walk out of Walmart with a cart with of $500 worth of shit and they aren’t going to call the police and get arrested if they aren’t gone before the police (who are normally in the parking lot already here) get there is an idiot.

    The prison system makes money off those people going to jail. The largest private prison company is from here. “But the News said!”









  • When it gets really cold my doors have issues. So a few months back I was leaving for work on a Tuesday morning at 2:30am. (Delivery trucks would arrive at 3:30am Tuesdays that’s why I remember). I get in the old 94 Cherokee and back down the drive. As I head down my street I see 2 cop cars stopped at the corner right before the turn I need to take out of the neighborhood. As I approach I brake and start to swing to the right just a tad to make sure they have room in case they got out of the car, and good thing I did because as I passed them MY door swung open and would have knocked the side view mirror off the cop car had I not. The cop just saw me panickingly lean and reach out with my left hand to snatch the door to pull it shut, my seat belt pops open at that moment and I almost fall out of the car but manage to close the door, fight with the seatbelt and take the turn only to continue driving wondering how far I would get before those cops pulled me over assuming I was drunk and when they find out I’m not give me a ticket for I have no idea what. The bars close here at 3am, so drunk drivers are plenty around that time.
