This doesn't matter, because if you're a soldier getting things shipped to you, it goes to an APO box that then gets sorted internally to go wherever that soldier is stationed. You'd have to stop shipping to military members entirely.

This. Even if we view this as corruption of their original mission (it isn't), at a certain point, the only thing to do with a structure that's rotted so much is to pull it down and start fresh. Corruption is cancer, and allowing any corrupt entities to exist within the system means that corruption will spread back in.

Or start deputizing people who will. Police say they won't help? There's plenty of people out there who will. The admin wants to claim it's a Wild West city? Treat it like one.

Apparently just making a chalk message on the sidewalk in front of his house is enough.

Bingo. Drag your feet, use up time. File shitty motions you know won't work to tie up the courts. Sabotage is hard work, but slowing the gears of the Orphan Crushing Machine is important and actually pretty easy to do when it's the federal government.

Remember, squids: if you're in a big city, cops are better at responding to one big thing in one location than ten medium sized things across the entire metro.

It's worked wonders for centuries. Half the reason "you should go to war" was a thing was because of the unspoken "so you can steal a bunch of shit from the villages you burn".

The answer is "we need data that matches what we want".

I'm sure they're being pushed to not decline ANYONE. You aren't hiring the numbers they want to hire if you decline anyone with a pulse and the ability to hold a firearm.

Because that takes more time and actual work. By forcing her to trial, prosecutors and police get to up their numbers.

This. They need some form of actual income, and ad revenue gives them theoretical capital to loan against.

The issue is whether he's in MN anymore. I'm sure for "safety reasons" he's out threatening people in TX or Oregon or whatever.
