21 wtfsAmerica what the fuck
In other cases, we see no communication that the parent knows that their child is to be taken away. Instead, the officers say, “I’m going to take your child to get bathed.” That’s one we see again and again. “Your child needs to come with me for a bath.” The child goes off, and in a half an hour, twenty minutes, the parent inquires, “Where is my five-year-old?” “Where’s my seven-year-old?” “This is a long bath.” And they say, “You won’t be seeing your child again

21 wtfsMeanwhile, in Taliban controlled Afghanistan Texas:
In Tarrant County, Tex., defendants are sometimes strapped with a stun belt around their legs. The devices are used to deliver a shock in the event the person gets violent or attempts to escape.
But in the case of Terry Lee Morris, the device was used as punishment for refusing to answer a judge’s questions properly during his 2014 trial on charges of soliciting sexual performance from a 15-year-old girl, according to an appeals court. In fact, the judge shocked Morris three times, sending thousands of volts coursing through his body. It scared him so much that Morris never returned for the remainder of his trial and almost all of his sentencing hearing.
The stun belt works in some ways like a shock collar used to train dogs. Activated by a button on a remote control, the stun belt delivers an eight-second, 50,000-volt shock to the person wearing it, which immobilizes him so that bailiffs can swiftly neutralize any security threats. When activated, the stun belt can cause the person to seize, suffer heart irregularities, urinate or defecate and suffer possibly crippling anxiety as a result of fear of the shocks.
The stun belt can also be very painful. When Montgomery County, Md., purchased three of the devices in 1998, a sheriff’s sergeant who was jolted as part of his training described the feeling to The Washington Post like this: “If you had nine-inch nails and you tried to rip my sides out and then you put a heat lamp on me.”

21 wtfsPreface: Yes my friend is already talking with a lawyer and corporate and stuff...
My coworker took her dog to a Petsmart to be kenneled for a weekend. She had to leave quickly and didn't have time to get a friend or someone to watch her dog. Jump to getting back. While she was gone and theres still no concrete numbers but while she was gone they got a call from an animal hospital that her dog had its eye detached/hanging out. The dog ultimately lost its eye. Petsmart did not call them to tell them. They found out from the animal hospital the dog got taken to.
I mean if you're Petsmart you gotta fucking bend over backwards here right? They're just stonewalling right now. -
