American football has been referred to as just football (in America) longer than football (soccer) was called just football in Britain. It was called association football as a distinct game separate from rugby football and other football games. Football distinguishing it from games played on horseback. Soccer was British slang from association (similarly at the time rugby football has slang term rugger.) Eventually the association part fell out of use but other countries that had developed their own football games tended to still call it soccer. I don’t really care either way, I’ll call it football when talking to people who call it football and soccer with people who call out soccer, I just think the origin of the terms is pretty interesting.

A grand jury will not create double jeopardy because it happens before charges are brought. It’s a way for a prosecutor to see if the evidence they have is strong enough. If a grand jury does not indict they can try again with new evidence or a different approach. They aren’t necessarily required for every criminal case. But making a weak case to a grand jury is a way prosecutors avoid charging cops while claiming to have tried their best to the public. Especially with the secrecy around them.

Not usually. Prosecutions for police shootings in the US are rare. Typically just an internal investigation done by another department that clears the shooter. It must be extra egregious or have serious public pressure for an AD to even attempt to bring charges.

That is mentioned in this article as well, though not by name. One of the rancher’s recommendations for bringing down the cost is to break up the meat packing monopolies. We desperately need to enforce and expand anti-trust laws

Fair point!

Do you not consider SA, SS, and Hitler Youth nazis?

Yeah, I had a lot of fun with it. I didn’t like the zombies vs humans mode and prefer the l4d way, but the campaigns were really fun.
