I'm familiar with Antonov. Rip 225.
What I don't get is why the russians would pay the crazy premium of air lifting them in the most expensive cargo jet in the world back to russia.

What’s up with the cigarette plane?
Edit: further research reveals this plane is most commonly contracted by the military to fly in time sensitive and very large and or heavy parts. It is Ukrainian and not Russian. It was flown here last containing large metal frames.
There oldest mention of it flying back to Russia with cigarettes I found also claimed it came here to deliver vodka.
These planes repteeent Ukrainian technical prowess and pride, not Russian. The 50% larger an-225 was destroyed early on in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
But sure the Russians fill the fuel tanks with vodka to deliver some bears to Virginia before loading its tanks with bourbon and flying home cigarettes and bacon.

First of all “no risk to the public” suggests they are a risk to a different group of people which is othering some poor black people so you can assuge your own paranoia and anxiety.
Second of all you don’t know why a cooperating witness or co conspirator or whoever would come forward. Maybe they fear for the life.
What if someone involved in this incident shoots it out in the street and clips a civilian. Now the cops own words are back to haunt them.
I can’t believe you got me defending rpd lol this is just common sense.
And yeah they make up terrorist attacks to justify going to war against their own citizens over protests of mass destruction but dude also lost his job and fucked his career up on that one. Trust Stoney and get balogned

They get nothing from that and risk opening themselves up to liability.
It’s a terrible idea to comment on any ongoing investigation.

Reply to A rare look inside (the slow) work to rebuild Richmond’s Fox Elementary School by Charlesinrichmond
Fox is the wealthiest public elementary school in the city. The fact that some poors are there doesn’t negate this fact.
It doesn’t make sense financially or otherwise to rebuild buildings that are this old or this destroyed. The building was old but not historic.
One of Richmond’s main problems is the condition of its school buildings. Mold. Leaks. Collapsing features.
The mayors major political right was to build some schools very quickly at 1.5 times the cost. This cost him the power to build schools as it is the school boards now.
There is a long history in this country of using things like “historic” and “walkable “ to segregate schooling.

You don't get to dictate the scope of the conversation.
What I have or have not done has no baring on the legitimacy on my opinion. I have not worked to uphold the inequitable status quo while also claiming to be battling it as you have in here and as this fundraise seeks.
​
You accuse me of what about ism but in this same post refuse to answer simple questions like "where does the funding go".
​
I agree that "addressing LCI" funding will be innefective and that the current governmental structure is built to maintain the status quo and to minimize the will of the people.

get rid of municipal school boards and de segregate the schools across all lines including cities and counties.

A system where the rich are able to help themselves over others in a system that is deficient is not equitable.
When the politicians couldn’t use the n word anymore they moved on to negro. When they became untenable they transitioned to “walkable schools”. The rationale for having a fundraiser for one school in a system that is failing is the same that justifies keeping the Richmond schools poor and the county ones rich and I had to call it as I see it in this thread.

Wherever the parents decide.
It’s a way to prop up schools with wealthy kids without having to fix root issues of systemic failure or god forbid letting too many poors in.

fighting for what benefits you and yours is not noble and not reflecting on the deficiencies of the system, or knowing them and fighting not to fix them but to insulate yourself from them is disgusting, jim crow, and segregationist.

the cognitive dissonance of the argument of "we are highlighting the issues across all the schools" while fundraising to help one school in a system of many that lack resources is not surprising, but still disappointing.

fuck george wythe
​
edit; they will build the elementary school that burned down years after they started rebuilding wythe and it will be done before wythe. it will not conform to the codes and standard that will be thrust on wythe. they will start construnction asap and let the costs balloon out of control and say "oopsie who couldve known rebuliding a historic building that was burned to pieces and left rotting would be hard".
