Back in my day at umass lowell, we mixed the vodka with beer and lemonade powder mix, no water. Called it porch crawlers because we’d have to crawl buck up the porch by the end of the night. I blame Covid for these softies. Or the hood is just better at drinking than the pastures out west.

Man, what a fucking downgrade in tech. At least her new office must smell nice.
(/s, she's rightfully very proud of her new post. Quote from here.

Reply to Massachusetts cop resigns from force for sexually assaulting student then gets hired by neighboring towns police department to be their sex crimes investigator by wra1th42
It's not a bug, it's a feature. Cara Rossi was recently promoted to Chief of Police in Ashland after attempting to cover up the sexual assault committed by her coworker James Quilty in her old department in Natick. Despite Rossi's attempt to sweep it under the rug, Quilty was eventually indicted, plead guilty and was allowed to resign instead of being fired.

No, Blackstone is in Worcester county on the northern Rhode Island border, it’s literally like an hour drive away depending on traffic through Providence.

It seems like you have a lot of anger inside you that must be difficult to live with. Maybe therapy would be a better outlet for you than being abusive to internet strangers

The entire American system of policing is corrupt and violent from the top down, and has been since its inception. It has nothing to do with education levels.

In case anyone was wondering why sex crimes get under-reported...

I live in the south. This chart is complete bullshit. They hide their rude, suspicious, and mean personalities under a thin veneer of politeness.

Exactly, all catholic priests have a bachelor's degree plus five additional years of training. That didn't stop thousands of kids from being molested.

That's the thing, he was never charged. These are all accusations swepted under the rug.
The database needs to include ALL information. I believe the NYPD has something similar.

Reply to UMass warns about people drinking 'borgs' after 28 ambulances called by MarcoVinicius
From the article:
> AMHERST, Mass. (AP) — The University of Massachusetts is warning about a TikTok drinking trend after 28 ambulances were summoned to off-campus parties.
> Students were observed Saturday carrying jugs with a mixture of alcohol, electrolytes, flavoring and water, dubbed “blackout rage gallons,” or “BORGs,” in a binge-drinking trend gaining traction on TikTok, officials said.
> There were so many calls for ambulances for student alcohol intoxication that neighboring agencies stepped in to help, officials said. The Amherst Fire Department said none of the cases were life-threatening. UMass Police reported two arrests for underage drinking.
> UMass officials said this is the first time the university has observed widespread use of BORGs at off-campus parties.
> In a statement, the university said the weekend’s events will be assessed and steps taken to improve alcohol education. Incoming students already learn about physiological and medical risks of binge drinking.
> The weekend’s festivities are known among UMass students as the “Blarney Blowout,” an annual unsanctioned event related to upcoming St. Patrick’s Day, local media reported.
