The light blue was camouflage … to keep whomever kinda safe, sorta. You know, looking up in the sky it blended in and you only knew it was AF1 when it landed and traffic was tied up for hours and hours. Oh, and all of the drab helicopters roaming around. /s

This is for real. I’ve done ground crew at small airports, helping launch and retrieve gliders. Everybody has to watch the skies for aircraft in the pattern. Airplanes that don’t contrast with the sky really are harder to see.

> The incident that led to Thursday’s arrests unfolded on the morning of February 14, when the inmate was scheduled to be transferred from the Dade Correctional Institution to another facility, the agency said. Before being taken from his cell in the mental health unit, he reportedly threw urine on an officer.
> 
> Corrections officers then put him in handcuffs and took him from his cell, the agency said. After that, “even though he was in handcuffs and compliant with officer commands, agents say the officers began to beat him,” it said.

If true, murder pure and simple.

This story is making me laugh.

I don’t think this one made the news or anything, I just happened to stumble on it.

Love it! Especially the use of quotes for emphaaasis. And the fact that Twitter is not yet under new management, and that ownership is different from management anyway.
