If you're familiar with these cities, it should help illustrate the significance of the explosion yesterday. 

 

The Lebanese have dealt with so much destruction already. I can only hope they find the political resolve to move forward together.

Now I've heard everything (wasn't sure if it belonged here or the restaurant/food thread)

 

Quite breathtaking to watch such large crowds of people uniting against corruption.   Sends a powerful message.

The Toronto Raptors issued a statement on Tuesday saying a recently released video proves team president Masai Ujiri wasn’t the “aggressor” in an encounter with a law enforcement officer at Oracle Arena last June.

Alameda County sheriff’s deputy Alan Strickland, a law enforcement officer in California, is suing Ujiri over a scuffle following the team’s NBA Finals victory over the Golden State Warriors at Oracle Arena.

Strickland claims in a federal lawsuit filed in February that he stopped Ujiri from going on the court to celebrate with his team because he didn’t provide the proper credential, leading to a shoving match that was partially captured on video.

He's literally pulling it out right in front of the sheriff on the video before he's pushed.

 

The Sheriff's office saw the video and still stood behind this dirt bag. I hope he's finally fired and everyone who has enabled this scam.

This guy also has a conviction for insurance fraud and filing a false statement.  He couldn't get a job as a cop elsewhere because of it.  This particular sheriff's office clearly has low standards.
