bold of you to assume police officers are educated enough to perform a sleeper safely or even would if they could when they also have the option to just sloppily choke you to death over the course of several minutes while people watch and film

Oh absolutely. It's a monkey's paw. It's like if you went back in time and taught Chauvin how to do an RNC, thinking you've saved George Floyd, but then it happens anyway.

It's on a theoretical level I've seen plenty of situations where you get a bunch of cops piling on top of someone or beating them with batons as they try and get the hands behind the back. If you're dealing with an honest to God dangerous person you could save both you and them a lot of violence by giving them the old unplugging and plugging back in.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
