finally moving into an apartment !!!

so, a few years ago, i realized just how bad my home life really was. i ended up moving in with another relative, but recently things fell through and i had to move back in with my monster mother. but, i am finally moving out and getting my own place! i'm going to be able to attend pride events for the first time! i'm going to be able to celebrate the holidays for my religion! i'm finally going to be free of the judgment and abuse i've dealt with my entire life. i am free. or at least, i will be in six days

Nobody deserves to get shot.

People should NOT have to be ideal fucking citizens in order to not get fucking murdered by the fucking police. The can be petty thieves and addicts who don't contribute to society and STILL should be fucking murdered by the police because that's what it's supposed to mean to live in a free fucking country. The justice system is supposed to protect the lives and rights of all citizens. Not just citizens who adhere to the law. We have all these laws about due process and fair punishment so that people who have committed crimes still get to live.

Why do we overlook this whenever criminals are killed by a cop. Where is the punishment for cops who steal those rights. Yes, if a criminal is armed and attacking the police, that's self defense. but there are plenty of cases of unarmed criminals being killed, and the murderer getting away with little or no punishment. Why are these murders somehow rationalized by the victim's criminal record? Last time I checked, the vast majority of crimes don't have death sentences attached, and the ones that are still get a trial. Why aren't cops punished for taking away these rights. Why aren't these cases treated like the murders that they are.

When cops kill, the only thing they need to escape punishment is a flimsy "I thought they were armed." or "they robbed a bank with a gun last week." Why is this allowed. How can people benefit from due process and fair sentencing when that can be stolen by the whim of a trigger happy cop.

Police brutality against innocents wouldn't be such a problem if police brutality against the guilty was adequately punished. If criminals and suspected criminals were treated the same way anybody else is, we would not have to be scared of the police.

When criminals do not have their rights enforced, then all that's needed to take away a person's rights is to label them as a criminal. The moment anyone's rights are taken away is the moment everyone's rights are no longer guaranteed.

......suddenly struck by the idea for a piece of worldbuilding of "fae don't like iron bc it is the most stable element*"

*as in elements higher you can extract energy via fission and lower you can extract energy via fusion but iron itself there is no excess binding energy to extract at all
