Better call customer support.

Of course, they're just going to tell you to turn it off and back on again.

Ok, fuck them. But shutting down this nonprofit organization doesn't directly affect their bottom line. It may eventually have an indirect effect.

My point is that by shutting down, the only obvious direct effect is that advertisements are now more likely to appear adjacent to bullshit hate propaganda. This doesn't substantially hurt the advertisers in a large way - it hurts people more because it elevates the visibility of hate speech. Why would you think that's good? This does absolutely fuck all to stop advertising or advertisers.

They should be careful - someone might think their ~~car~~ conveyance is woke

It was published several times before he got his job at cracked.com. First it was a collection of stories he wrote for Halloween over several years on his blog pointlesswasteoftime.com, then he self-published, then it was published by Permuted Press (a small horror publisher), and finally Thomas Dunne.

I agree, but for clarification it was a different teen whom he shot, who still had his BB gun.

There were 3 teens, two with BB guns. The first dropped his and was on the ground, straddled by Shooter McFuckhead when the second, still standing, was shot.

Thank god there was a "good guy with a gun" there. Otherwise nobody would have died!

OP isn't saying not to add the requirement. They're saying it should read "minimum 5 years", not "minimum 5 to 10 years" which makes no sense.

The videos aren't being released publicly. It's in the article.

Only Christian Ziegler, the police, and presumably the prosecutor(s) have access.

This is not (yet) comeuppance. That will come when he actually spends time in prison. This is just more of the same legal processes that promise comeuppance but hasn't - so far - delivered any actual results.

For a few years now, I've replied with "Thank you for your support." However I think I may start adding something like "You should look up wounded warriors and make a donation, they're the ones that really need it." Or some other org for disabled vets.
