2. Working in an occupation that you enjoy doing.

Like a magnet for these types.

[CrispyQ]

5. The bane of all occupations where one has authority over others.

Corporate management comes to mind first & foremost, since it offers the most opportunities for low achievers & social misfits to move up the ladder & be assholes. I could count the number of really good managers I had on one hand & have fingers left over. Most were mediocre at best, & favored employees who sucked up to them.

33. having trump in a position of authority

has been constant flashbacks of the stupidest people rising to high positions. I may have had one corporate boss who was my intellectual equal in a couple decades of corporate marketing work.

It was always 👀 . How did you ever make it this far?

[OMGWTF]

34. Before my husband and I retired we both had sociopathic bosses named "John."

They truly did not GAF about anyone else. For example, hubby's boss loved to fk-up our family's vacation plans for bullshit reasons. No one wanted to sit with him at the company Christmas party because he was such a weirdo jerkhole. We recently heard that he is pushing up daisies now, so yay! We won that one.

I was laid off in October 2008 when the last Great Rethuglican Recession was happening. My jerkhole boss (the owner's son) stood by my desk and was literally laughing as I filled up a box with my personal things after 20 fking years with this company, rave reviews, bonuses, and promotions. I worked my ass off and played a big role in building that company to be worth over $300M and was even once told by the VP of Marketing that I was the "soul" of the company. It took every ounce of control I had left to not bean him with a stapler or punch him in the throat. He is a POS, and I know things about him that I will take to my grave because it would destroy his family. It's been years, but I flip him off every time I drive by that building, saying, "Here's a little something for your in-box John S!"

Turns out that getting out of the corporate rat race was a wonderful thing. My husband was already retired, and we were in a financial position for me to do the same. We sold our house in the city, bought a beautiful home in the country for cash, travel half of the year, and are living our best life now. We fking earned it though!

6. Idaho???!! Seems there's some folks there that DO care about real democracy

If we can get pushback on the growing fascism in even Idaho (how about that Bernie/AOC rally there too?), maybe all is not lost

[MagickMuffin]

7. I see 2 brothers were charged

Hopefully this will also happen to the magaloongoons at Marge’s town hall. Someone there was tased for exercising their 1st Amendment rights to their paid representative.

[surfered]

8. If they're not a peace officer with a badge giving a lawful order, it's assault

[1WorldHope]

9. I am so glad to hear this. I remember watching her get dragged out of that town hall..

[tishaLA]

10. But not the sheriff?

He was the one directing them to remove her and claimed he wasn't there in his official capacity.

I'm glad there are charges and I can't wait for the civil suits, but the head guy needs to face justice, as well.

[louis-t]

11. What's with Michael Keller, only battery?

Sounds like he reached into the crowd and punched her.

[moonshinegnomie]

18. thats what battery is

[louis-t]

38. My point was the others had battery plus other charges.

I just visualized this coward reaching over and punching her while the others were holding this woman down.

[meadowlander]

41. I don't know the specifics but from the descriptions of the charges I'd guess

either the other guys were security guards or the other guys were wearing fake security guard uniforms. The other charges relate either to abuse of power or to impersonating an authority figure. The other guy just seems to have jumped into the melee.

[louis-t]

43. False imprisonment was the other charge they all had.

Except for Keller.

[RJ-MacReady]

12. still infuriating

If that was my wife or daughter I would have gotten physical.

[Orrex]

14. Has Trump pardoned them yet?

(Yes, I know)

[orangecrush]

Let them share a cell for a year at Supermax.
Brownshirts have no legal power.
They are terrorists working for a political hack.

[NoMoreRepugs]

29. Only took 6 men(?) to remove Wonder Woman disguised as a regular person??

[Timeflyer]

32. Wonder Woman would be proud of that Idaho Amazon--I know I am.
