The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

After two summary executions (that I know of)

One in LA, on New Year.

Two narratives:

-Porter was firing rounds into the air, as New Year celebration.

-The off duty ICE trooper shot him dead, on sight, as an "active shooter".

Family of man killed by off-duty ICE agent in LA demands charges: ‘The ache will never go away’

Keith Porter Jr, a 43-year-old father of two, was fatally shot by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve outside his apartment complex, according to LA and federal officials. An LA police department (LAPD) spokesperson said after the incident that Porter had fired gunshots into the air. A US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson said the off-duty immigration officer was “forced to defensively use his weapon” while responding to an “active shooter”.

Around Detroit, so many people fire their guns into the air on New Year, that civic organizations started handing out little bells for people to ring, instead, because the bullets falling back to earth could injure people.
