Why, oh, why, won’t these rage monsters off themselves first rather than destroying everyone in their lives? They rampage, then flee; do they really expect to get away with it? ---

In recent months, I’ve seen the phrase “I choose the bear”, regarding an hypothetical question, “would a woman rather see a random man in the woods, or a bear?” It has to do with how likely one would be believed were either to attack, and that question made me think of this horrific report, which to my knowledge isn’t on the Dope yet. I actually considered starting a thread of its own, but those don’t usually end well for me regardless of the topic. There are tons of links, and this is the first one I landed on that wasn’t an op-ed piece. Many people are interpreting “62 million hits” as “62 million users”, which I personally have not. Trigger alert: It’s a site, presumably on the dark web, about how to drug one’s wife, or other partners, into unconsciousness, rape them, and get away with it, presumably inspired by that terrible story from France.

This commentary also has actual video footage of the “bear attacks.” I remember reading back in the 1980s that auto insurance fraud cost every American $200 a year. Not every driver, EVERY AMERICAN. According to the Inflation Calculator, that would be, depending on the year, a range from $532.60 to $801.49. I don’t think I even pay $801 a year for my own coverage, but I’m a low risk driver, and nevertheless, I find it believable. The video does contain profanity. > **[Their Awful Scam Landed Them in Jail](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3i-GmGhQziw%2F)** > > Starforge PC https://starforgepc.com/moist-ytGet Goof Juice and use code MOIST https://gamersupps.gg/moistOur soap https://www.usecheeky.com/moistGaming chan... ---

At least they didn’t first come to the authorities’ attention by their house, and some of the neighbors’ houses, disappearing in a sudden cloud of smoke and debris. All too often the family that makes bombs together blows up together. So they have togetherness as they’re being smithereened. ---

The problem with Kash Patel’s FBI is that it is entirely plausible that they arrested a random teen for no good reason. Without further details it’s hard to give them the benefit of the doubt. ---

While that’s true, the amount of turmoil and reassigning to the Trump-fixation-of-the-day that seems to be happening at the FBI gives us little confidence that the ones who did make the bust have the experience and judgment to do that investigation correctly. ---

OK, first of all: It’s alleged in the lawsuit that the company handbook says that? Hasn’t the reporter gotten ahold of a copy of the company handbook? This shouldn’t be something that needs to have an “alleged” next to it. And second: The evil is granted, but just how stupid do you have to be to actually put that in your company handbook? That’s just asking for punitive damages of “the plaintiffs now own 100% of the company”.
