A senior New York City law enforcement official briefed on the investigation said Thursday that shell casings found at the scene had the words “deny,” “defend” and “depose” written on them but police clarified Friday that it was “delay” and not “defend.”
These imbeciles can’t even read short words etched into shell casings which they literally possess, but I’m supposed to believe they’re gonna catch this guy?
wypeeps and not knowing their own language, name a more classic combo
A Gallup poll released Friday found that Americans believe health care quality is at a 24-year low. Those polled said health care coverage is even worse, with 54% saying it’s fair or poor.
jesus christ, how the fuck do 46% of yankkkees think health care coverage in this country is better than fair? what fucking world do these people live in?
Death to America
I think it’s because the US is a deeply unequal country. Services are good if you can afford them, and it just so happens that more and more americans can’t.
The current 44% of U.S. adults who say the quality of healthcare is excellent (11%) or good (33%) is down by a total of 10 percentage points since 2020 after steadily eroding each year. Between 2001 and 2020, majorities ranging from 52% to 62% rated U.S. healthcare quality positively; now, 54% say it is only fair (38%) or poor (16%).
Only four years of inflation and positive opinion dropped 10 points. That’s massive.
They are also asking about healthcare overall. So people aren’t rating health insurers directly, but their personal doctors and hospitals. Flip the question slightly and the numbers change:
Americans’ largely negative views regarding healthcare coverage and quality in the U.S. likely contribute to the widespread perception that the overall healthcare system has major problems (54%) or is in a state of crisis (16%). The seven in 10 Americans now holding these views is in line with the trend average of 69%.
Twenty-five percent of U.S. adults say the system has minor problems, and just 3% think it has no problems.
I’ll bet that if you ask people what they think of their insurer, they’ll have opinions.
Another comment on a different post said that these polls don’t differentiate between private and Medicare/medicaid plans and they also have a bias where respondents don’t need to have used their insurance benefits (I’m guessing beyond regular preventive care)
Statistically, they are a combination of health and well-covered that’s worked out for them so far
If you are “healthy” and just need to go to your regular preventive appointments, having read nothing from other peoples experiences, i could see rating it as “fair”
Emphasis mine. Yeah, but not in the way they mean.
In a statement, Thompson’s family said he was “an incredibly loving father” to two sons and “will be greatly missed.”
“We are shattered to hear about the senseless killing of our beloved Brian,” the statement said. “Brian was an incredibly loving, generous, talented man who truly lived life to the fullest and touched so many lives.”
I’m glad someone took the time to reach out and touch the life of someone who has touched so many lives.
I agree actually, all of these adjectives apply in a morbid way.
He was very loving of death, generous with handing out the gifts of death and disease, talented at doing so, etc.
"It’s, you know, claim denied on my prayers there,” referring to rote and unserious condolences.
I love how bourgeois media is just collectively pretending they don’t know what the word “deny” means
I’m guessing /pol/ is probably hard at work finding the guy. They might unironically be the government’s best bet lmao.
No even the right wingers hate these fucking parasites, Ben Shapiro’s own fanbase is shitting on him rn for condemning the murder
“Absolutely the f— not,” she said.
“concepts of thoughts and prayers. It’s, you know, claim denied on my prayers there,” referring to rote and unserious condolences.
Have people on tiktok been using “concepts of a plan” as a joke referring to Trump’s quote?
And pretending not to understand the very common insurance claim cindolences joke is peak MSM.
