Needed a politics break. Tuned to local news. Mistake.

Hookworm on local beach
Video of boy being shot by cop in Chicago
Video of aftermath of cop being shot and killed in Milwaukee
Video of two cops being shot (one killed) in Phoenix
Video of a carjacking complete with box cutter slashing and crushing of the victim with the car

Fuck this!
