The article lists those accomplishments and goals aplenty

It absolutely matters because representation matters

Not only is she old enough, she's forced to be a mother or face a murder charge at age 10

Edit: or she can just die. You wouldn't MURDER a BABY just to save a little girl that got raped by a Catholic priest would you?!?!

And women!

And non whites!

Have you ever heard of the crusades?

Not if they're not useful and well-justified things, yeah. Seeing as the money comes from us.

How come all the past well-intended police haven't changed anything, if that's all it takes? Surely you wouldn't say that this guy would be the very first person to join the police force with positive intent to create change from within. How come it hasn't worked?

He's obsessed because he's a gun nut so loves cops

I'd appreciate them focusing first on providing training along the lines of "don't terrorize and abuse the community" before building the training facility. You do good, and THEN you get the reward.

Educate the masses until they're not dumb enough to believe in a magic deity that's gonna justify all the hateful shit they do

Cop unions shouldn't exist because cops' purpose is to protect the owner class

I toil day after day to make and implement effective security detections, and then customer gets pwned because a fricken domain admin just says yeah whatever go ahead to getting spammed with 100 MFA pushes they didn't initiate. 😭🙃🥺🫠

Oh I'm painfully aware of that last part...

Your question is on point and well directed. The county should have more controls in place to begin with, 100%. But security always has an inherent trade off.

My only answer is that it takes a lot of man power, money, and red tape to effectively control devices like that. Remember, while Lancaster County IT and security folks are taking directives passed by CISA as well as the state, they're pretty much on their own for actually implementing and controlling stuff like that. It's not like they get some PA or fed sponsored software that does what they need; as I understand it's on the county to contract with vendors and implement their tech.

Yes, it's very simple and not too staggeringly expensive to lock down these devices with JAMF or whichever solution. But, that also comes with a ton of downside. You now have tickets and calls and ornery users and delays resulting from needing your help desk folks to go resolve app install requests. You're worried about where these packages are sourced from, so you're either maintaining your own repos which is a ton of work, or trusting the app store. You might be manually maintaining a whitelist of apps users can install without further authorization, and you still need to have a mechanism to actually stop them from breaking the rules.

Security comes from a simple idea, but the reality of making it happen is WAY more complex, especially in a government environment where change will take years or decades. I mean, look at the timing of this announcement, versus the exposés published ages ago showing how TikTok aggressively harvests metadata and could previously even see the contents of your clipboard. It took all that time for a decision to be made and a control to be implemented.

Pro life but oppose any policy benefitting other poor people

Pro religion but only when it's theirs

Pro gun to protect themselves and their families, nevermind that it directly puts them in more danger

Anti gay because they're all "groomers" but love the church and the boy scouts

Anti public school but they're happy to send their kids to one

The list goes on

Gotta perfect that child:rapist ratio /s

Yeah, I mean I pretty much agree in spirit. Fetterman is no different than any other politician. I voted for him very reluctantly

Edit - still don't feel it's really related to the OP but the point stands anyway. Nobody forced Fetterman to do anything he's a big boy. Let's not do a cult of personality y'all

Asking why Fetterman flipped the position on fracking is a valid and worthy question, but not when it's a non-sequitur

The people using SNAP/EBT are not the people you should be upset with

How'd you conclude that? I worked at McDonald's specifically when I was a teenager. Turns out having a job isn't mutually exclusive with not wanting illegal labor violations to be encouraged

Teenagers = child

Job = labor

It's not that hard to piece together pal

It's not like the kids or their families get any reparations right? The government just takes some $ and the owner writes it off. "Justice served"

Well, despite your concerns, it's still fuckin illegal and they deserve to get punished

¿Pór que no los dos?

Woke ideology? Nah fam. Queer people exist, that's a fact and not up for debate. Trying to represent history as if we don't exist is just refusing to teach reality.
