Nobody, “It’s just a prank bro!”.

I’m glad you wrote this because it was exactly what I needed to wrap my head around it too.

Am I the only one who thinks ‘terminates’ isn’t the best synonym for fired with this employer?

Imagine a crime free Gotham. Living in fear not of a Batman that caused physical harm when he catches you breaking the law, but he does follow you around peeing on you until he finds another crook.

I can’t be certain by I’d wager that’s Hollywoodism seeping through. Either the podcast is wrong or the dispatch/officer on duty has it wrong. The first 48 hours are the most vital in finding a missing person, they would not want to waste half of that as procedure.

Edit: I don’t want you to just believe some rando online. Here’s some sources:

The federal law on missing persons: https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=(title:34%20section:40501%20edition:prelim)

Internationally (UK): https://www.missingpeople.org.uk/get-help/report-a-missing-person

This edit isn’t me trying to prove I’m right, more to just accurately educate. Hope the information is never needed!!

This is hilarious.

Name them, they need their SOP redone. I have never heard of this in real life and I would bet it’s a bad officer/dispatcher following Hollywood rules rather than their unit policy.

Not comparing, we have our own issues, but the US just said not wearing a mask in public is akin to not paying taxes or speeding - it’s still illegal and not free speech because it affects others.

I mean it’s the best thing for police Hollywood has ever done. The inverse is wait 24 hours to file a missing person report.

Oh, the video is of last April.

And I chose to go to the Rockies this year…

He was going to piss down the shower drain rather than use the litter box.

No good point, I appreciate discussions!

I think they know if it didn’t exempt city residents there would be enough backlash from eligible voters it wouldn’t pass. Seeing as it’s a fine and not a ban it can have secondary effects of improving safety and the environment but primarily it will raise money.

Well they also exempt taxis and city residents so it’s not about safety or the environment it’s about the money.

I’m just having trouble picturing how the spacer works without ripping the waffle apart when removed. Is it like a rod? Cause I’m picturing a ping pong paddle type spacer but that wouldn’t pull out, or are the waffle top and bottom not cooked together?

Yeah but tell me more about this stuffed waffle maker. I have never heard of these and as I type I realize I sound like the shill part two.. still curious though, does it make like a waffle sandwich?

Good tip!

I guess my comment came across as sarcastic, I wasn’t. Most plans that take decades are much harder to accomplish than a little pruning and upkeep on a few trees.

Yeah, and the assessed value is compared to the other assessed value of homes in the taxable area and that’s how they divide the tax revenue from the value of the house. So if a whole area is in feeefall and loses (or gains) 50% value equally then the taxes would be approximately the same. Every house dropping value and the city government isn’t going to just accept half the budget from property taxes that year, they just reassess and recalculate amounts owed.

Yes pretty easy to plan and execute something that takes decades.
