I wonder how many Trump supporters think that treating a suspect with abuse is ok. There is a lot of police control dynamic that simply goes with the job, but some cops seem to relish the opportunity to act it out. Personal experience. I was arrested by mistake for being near a burglary scene. The cops did use the hand over the head, saying don't bump your head, and violently shoved me in, and kicked me with his boot in the thigh, bruising me. At the station, I got slapped around when I wanted to see my lawyer.
So Trump likes this stuff. Just want to star in a (non) reality TV show...they all think TV behavior is reality...I guess the USA believes TV is real.
This reminds me of a deep sea fishing trip in New England. One of the guys caught a small shark, put a cherry bomb in his mouth and let him go. The bomb exploded, and soon there were nothing but sharks being caught. He was having a ball blowing sharks up, but we finally shut him down, and moved away from the despoiled area. The captain took away his bombs, and it all went well.
If the scientists did add a higher category, would that now be enough evidence for the masses to accept climate change?
Would it influence the deniers?
Lawsuits? Holy cow! Remember how Big Tobacco did the denier/ anti-science dance to avoid the inevitable future lawsuits? And you wonder why big business is behind the deniers? If only they would stop focusing on short term gains, the eventual damages to themselves and the world would be so much less.
Leaving it up to Iraq and Afghanistan (and a long list of other countries) to sort out their own destinies leaves the U.S. in an uncomfortable if not unacceptable position of losing influence in shaping the region in our favor. That's not how an empire such as ours, or any empire, maintains it's hand in economic dealings and strategic positioning of force. What a mess, yes? What are the possibilities? A smaller empire? No empire? Decay of the Anglo Empire? A new understanding of global realities?

Where's our captain?
