  • It’s a weird kind of thing because if he had bailed out on his charges then he would be waiting for court proceedings and couldn’t be touched but he didn’t bail out he was released, so the trial had concluded and he had been serving his sentence and was then released conditionally by this magistrate judge only to be picked up again? Technically the warrant itself does fly but I don’t see how the charges stick when he has already been tried for them. I assume there isnt any new evidence or new counts but perhaps I’m wrong. Sometimes people can be reprosecuted if it’s determined that the original trial was somehow faulty but usually not so quickly as they have to gather a case for retrial together. So basically this is really weird.




  • These companies tend to own or have long term leases, so either they are stuck paying rent and have to justify the expense or they own an asset that is depreciating in value and they could stop that from happening by spending no money to force their employees back into the office. You have to think about the big money, too. Real estate is a cornerstone asset for big money, many banks and real estate empires hold these enormous office buildings and society trending towards WFH means those buildings are rapidly losing their value.




  • I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, if you’re holding a weapon it is your responsibility to know if that weapon is live, I don’t care who hands it to you or under what context. Children learn this in rifle safety.

    Does the armorer share responsibility? Definitely. But you can’t just say “someone else got hired to do that so Baldwin is off the hook.” Even pointing a gun around, live ammo or not, with the hammer cocked is plainly asinine and unsafe behavior. All Baldwin needed to do was take 5 seconds to open the chamber and look at the bullets to prevent someone losing their life, if that’s not negligence then what exactly is?
