      I know the feeling. Been doing what little one man can about this for a long, long time, and it’s always the same story.

      Long sigh… Tired, indeed.

        Thanks for doing what you do. Though it may seem like thankless work, awareness if these issues is so important. It’s posters like you who helped me to come around to the police problem.

    Who are these judges? And how are they appointed? There are no tests or something? Or they are bribed?

        Pretty much. Iowa governor Kim Reynolds has also essentially turned Iowa into a non-democratic state over the last several years. She has virtually absolute control. Everyone’s been hyper focused on DeSantis while super villains like her have been enacting insane policies and laws with little national coverage

        Seriously, look up how she’s made every single committee and appointments under her direct control, among other things. There are literally no longer any checks and balances to her bullshit and her Republican constituents have applauded it.

    The judge didn’t rule that I can’t call it a murder.
