So bizarre that I checked Bluesky immediately after watching that episode and saw this. Discovered Letterkenny on Tuesday and been binging it since. Oh well, Pitter Patter!

Just think - some of these politicians who made their fortune stamping on the bones of others and pledging allegiance to absolute idiots will have spent their last few painful, terrified seconds realising that it was all for nothing and they're still dying alone.

Ok, I can understand the difference in yellowing on the gun, different plastics and all that. But why are his THIGHS different?

Halfway down the page, after paragraph after paragraph of 'both sides' bullshit, someone in the BBC managed to get hold of both a keyboard AND a spine:
The Trump administration is characterising the moments leading up Alex Pretti’s death as an attack by him, claiming he approached officers with a handgun and after he violently resisted attempts to disarm him a border patrol agent fired in self defence.

"But videos show no evidence to support the claim he used any armed force to threaten agents, instead showing him pepper sprayed, wrestled to the ground and shot after an agent appeared to remove a holstered handgun from him. "
