Discussion The easiest $30k this guy ever made

On October 26, 2022, the judge ruled that Walden's contact with Land should have ended when it became clear that Land was not sleeping in the park or in need of assistance, and that the city was not responsible for Walden's actions.

On November 22, 2022, the city settled the lawsuit for $30,000.

We need to figure out how to hold police responsible for their crimes

Require police to carry private insurance and be licensed to practice law enforcement in the same way we require a doctor to carry private insurance for malpractice and be licensed to practice medicine. Im also fine with increasing a cops salary, but now when they fuck up their "malpractice" insurance pays up instead of the tax payer... I guarantee when a for profit insurance company is suddenly on the hook, theyre gonna find a way to straighten these cops up really quick.
