  1. He probably has high blood-lead levels. No, seriously; exposure to that in childhood lowers IQs and weakens impulse control. It's a major cause of crime, and it's still common in substandard housing.

  2.  @JDMKEV  Didn't he make physical contact first?

  4. @Lanin Thomasma I have a hard time believing that cops are gentle in Wisconsin or anywhere.

  6.  @CrampavanAdventures I'm not sure what you're trying to say. I'm just mentioning an important issue that not enough people know about.

  7.  @luisdelossantos830  I might have missed something, but did he tell them that he was looking for a phone? He may have been doing just that at first, but he closed the distance with them.

  10.  @bower31 They seem to be pretty violent anyway.

  11. This is off the subject, but if starting a family means having children, keep in mind that not everyone who gets married wants to have children.

  12.  @anti-ethniccleansing465  On the contrary; what you wrote is the old propaganda excuse, older by centuries and thoroughly unscientific.

  13.  @lemonyskunkketts7781  I only have a vague idea as to what that means, but I think that I will keep it that way.

  14.  @KuRushie  Sure. Thanks!

  15. It's a possession, not property, but that's beside the point.

  16.  @bower31  True, it can always be worse.

  17.  @RaineStudio  He pled down. Well over 90% of criminal cases end that way, never going to trial. This system punishes people too poor to go through the process of fighting the charges, even if they're using a public defender. Lots of people have other responsibilities (dependents etc.) that would be seriously compromised by going through the process.

  18.  @SalixNigra2  It apparently is a site where one can watch other people play video games (it sounds bizarre to me too). I don't know about the money part.

  19.  @Brother-Louis  Do you realize what would happen if more cases went to trial? The plea bargain system is indeed terrible, inasmuch as it punishes people too poor/unavailable to go through a trial.

  21. I see what you did there.

  22.  @anti-ethniccleansing465 Lead is still a big problem in low-quality housing. Where are you doing this research, other than "scientific" racist crank blogs? Do you have any peer-reviewed empirical evidence in major scientific/medical journals?

  23. Clickbait. Thumb down!

  31.  @DarkEnergyHealer  How do you know where he was born?

  32.  @IIRomoII  He pled down. That's how it works. Everyone avoided a trial. Plea bargains occur over 90% of the time.

  35.  @tal_hamagniv7586  Did he explain that to them? I'm not saying that wasn't his purpose, but he was creeping them out, and then he charged.

  36. Cringe-worthy, rather.

  37.  Wheeler63 It's still a huge problem in substandard housing. It's not just in paint chips, it's also in metal fixtures. Look up Kevin Drum's work on the subject.

  38. That's not what "karma" means. Also, police officers have so many chances to give wedgies, but they never do.
