Saw what ended up being my first wife when I passed in the parking lot and she was staring back at me. Went inside to flirt, pretended to be looking for a watch. Ended up buying a watch I had no use for, from her. Dated and ended up married, all from window shopping.

Legally - probably not much will happen if it is just simple battery which is a misdemeanor. The fine is $1000 and up to 6 months in prison.
Reality is many 1st time offenders get misdemeanor probation and attend anger management classes.

Civil - Could be sued.

Politically - the voters will decide.

Basically true with any gasoline / natural gas / etc piece of equipment,,,,,,,, it you take care of the item, it will most likely take care of you.
For a generator, let it rest daily, check oil level, add oil if necessary.
For long term use in a disaster, also do self maintenance, refer to the manual or a YouTube Video and complete the following:
Whenever your mtce. schedule dictates, change oil & oil filter
Change air filter
Change spark plugs.
Etc.

I also learned to turn off the auto-start during a hurricane or expected outage due to the gas pressure.
When the power goes out, all stand-by generators compete for natural gas which is supplied by gas lines that are too small to handle that load.
I wait an hour or so, shut off the breaker panel switches and then start my generator manually.
This allows the generator to run at low RPM’s thus not needing as much natural gas pressure.
Once that is stable, I start turning on breakers starting with lights and fans, followed by fridge & freezers, then the AC, etc
I only run the water heater as needed.
This served me well after Ida and I had only minor issues here and there caused by low gas pressure.

Now, others around me used the Ron Popeil (IYKYK) method and put their generator on the “set it and forget it mode”.
Those are the ones that had problems around me.
Several with older models had engine problems but that was a known issue with those models.

1) Why is the bailiff standing over in the corner like he's lost?

If they want to act like animals, let them fight.
No sense in getting injured over their stupidity.
Bailiff should protect the judge and court officials.
Bailiff alone is not gonna impact that amount of animalistic behaviors.

Has it been reported how the 2 utes died?
Security?
Police?
Suicide?

You’d be surprised at how poorly trained those people are.

I can only speak for our 911 agency. Training is very thorough and done correctly. You must be proficient in each task before you progress to the next part of training. Takes 4-6 months to be fully released to answer calls / dispatch without a shadow monitoring you.

Floor supervision holds the employees accountable to follow the National standards. Errors are neither acceptable nor tolerated. Discipline occurs when procedures are not followed.

Now I can’t testify to what other agencies do, but I can assure you, you would be impressed with our 911 system and amazed at everything they are trained to do. The phone call to 911 only scratches the surface of their capabilities.

It was quite the ordeal and is an all-timer story to tell.

Well, we’re waiting……………………….

If it’s for the kid’s enjoyment, do Carnival.
We have over 60 cruises on Carnival over the years.
That being said, we rarely do Carnival, especially out of NOLA.
Galveston clientele wasn’t bad the last time we sailed out of there (4 yrs).
MSC is more an adult crowd type cruise.

I never advocated for cop to do nothing. It was only stated as an option and the more than likely pushback.

Do nothing? Crucified by public opinion as seen in comments above.
