His YouTube is in the video
Yeah pretty much
Idk about "racist-leaning" I'm definitely gonna need receipts for that one, but they were definitely political definitely rage bait at times.
For the most part tho they just seem to be like socialist/communist/anarchists with all the opinions you'd imagine those ppl would have.
Idk if I agree with defederating with them I mean they're a HUGELY popular instance that really just served as a place for political views that, at least to my knowledge, are pretty popular among Lemmy users.
It shouldn't be surprising that a LARGE amount of the people who fled corporate social media to make a community owned social media with no centralized "governance" are socialists, communists, and anarchists.
Seems like a bit of a hasty step to just defederate. Also I can't find any proof of a vote after searching quite a bit.
So this happened in November of 2018 apparently. The guy in the video is the YouTuber Flexxinruee (Rudy Ornelas). He's a barber mostly and I believe this happened in front of his business.
He says in the original video on his channel that this event happened in November of 2018 and he won the case in August of 2019 after using the video as evidence. He posted this video to his channel August 6th of 2019.
As far as what exactly he was charged with it wasn't exactly released. CBS news asked and the police didn't comment. He did have a "gun charge" according to a CBS article from 2019. It seems that any other charges were dropped before they got to court and the gun charge was the only one that remained.
The charge specifically was for the illegal transportation of a firearm. In California you can transport a firearm only in your trunk or in another locked area/container IF the firearm is unloaded. His had the magazine in it. That's all they got him on. He went to court to get the firearm back and I believe he had to take a firearms class.
The police captain also claimed the video didn't show the "conclusion" to the interaction where they claim he admitted he knows why the gun was drawn on him and he apologized. That being said they never released any dashcam or body cam footage to confirm that. It's just a buncha talk as far as I'm concerned. Rudy (the YouTuber) never said anything to that effect so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
About 4 months back he posted a video talking about the situation and answering the question of if he sued and explaining why he didn't sue. He mostly just said he wasn't sure the outcome would actually be positive and there's a lot of religion thrown in there about how Jesus kept the cops from shooting him etc.
Edit: clarifying the guy's name, the origin of some of the information, and that Rudy never mentioned anything about apologizing to my knowledge
I absolutely think you should wait until you secure a new place.
As someone who has done the breakup thing with someone I'm living with, and also broken up with someone after helping them find a new place to live (I used our cats not getting along as an excuse). I can say with no doubt in my mind that I preferred the situation where another place to live was found first. It's better for finances and it's better to give y'all time away from each other.
There are a few and especially imo one fuckin major downside though to moving then splitting: the splitting of the items. Living with someone post breakup you have way more time to start really taking inventory of what is yours. Depending on how cordial y'all are I've also seen it workout such that it COULD result in you remaining friends easier.
That being said, in my experience at least, that being friends by living together depends WAAAYY more on the person in question. Like I lived with an ex and it was fine but I've also lived with an ex and they were fuckin nuts sneaking into my room and looking through my shit all the time.
Disclaimer: My current situation is goofy bc me and the person I'm with are like back and forth on even wanting to date but we're so intertwined in each other's financial situations that like I can't decide if they wanna stay with me bc they actually like me or bc they're so concerned about not being able to afford life.
I do really see both sides to this. At the end of the day though getting away from one another is necessary 99% of the time. If you want to be friends you need time away from one another. Also, even if you've been with them a long time it's nearly impossible to tell how fuckin crazy a breakup will make someone.
I had a seemingly normal loving person i was with for 3 years (the one I helped get her own place that i mentioned earlier) just destroy my room when one of my roommates let her back in after our breakup.
Eastern Time Zone
I'm an Electrical Engineering student with a part time job that's VERY lenient regarding me being on my phone.
With that being said I'd reckon I can be on at least once most hours of the day given i don't sleep a whole lot.
What my man Edric here says is facts bc doing that in the summer or the winter is balls.
It's ok ish spring and late fall but between our car delivery people and the cart people two of them got hit by a car within 6 months or so.
I'd much rather keep my annoying ass spot in electronics than be constantly pinching my fingers on carts and finnicking with the stupid cart wrangler controller in the hot sun or freezing winter
Your friend lied or y'all don't live in the south bc I fuckin HAAAAATEEEDD that shit
I wonder who did the original design bc I have this on a mug
That's probably the case especially given the gas tank is sitting at empty
Jeeeesus Christ talk about a weird case with no evidence leading someone to death row.
That whole trial seems insane like there's literally no evidence she did any of this shit. All they had was like some blood splatters they speculated MIGHT be caused by her raising the knife over her head to stab the kids.
Seriously what the fuck.
Edit: holy fuck have y'all read the signed affidavit from her husband explaining how he had seemingly hired someone to steal his car and rob his house for insurance claims???
