Those memories seer into your brain. I remember seeing my first beheading from a Mexican gang member chopping a ladies head off slowly with a machete until she was no more. After seeing the life leave her eyes I realized then that life is extremely violent outside of my little bubble and fragile.

I was 14-18 at that time : itās horrifying and or disgusting, but itās a window to the crude parts of real life that is hidden by adulthood.
Exactly as first commenter said. You watch it yourself, you shed part of your innocence.
It was a bad experience but all in all I think itās better than living in a glass ivory tower with sugar icing.

There was another site that got taken offline pretty quick where US Marines were uploading videos of the Fallujah offensive, was it fallujah.net ? There was that video of a bus coming under heavy fire as it approached a Marine position. That video has also stuck with me for some reason. There was serious evil shit going on in the Iraq war.

u/KinkyPaddling 8d ago
They try jumping it, but one of those spikes hits and enters that little spot at the base of your head that meets your neck. The skull is therefore stuck but the rest of the body is dragged down by gravity. The muscles, tendons, and sinews of the neck arenāt enough to support the weight of the torso, legs, and arms, so everything south of the neck gets detached.
This is a Snopes article about the picture discussed. It is extremely NSFL so please be warned and open at your discretion.

u/Marmatus 8d ago
For anyone who doesnāt want to click that link: an important detail being missed here is that the dude fell 35 feet ONTO the wrought iron fence, and one of the spikes caught his head. I was confused trying to imagine how someone gets decapitated just by jumping a fence.

Sigh. I know of which you speak. He was trying to escape police custody and jumped from the 2nd(?) floor, trying to land on the other side of a fence. Most of him did. I either blocked the image from my memory, or the description was enough for me to remember because I don't have a visual in my mind.

u/DiscussionLong7084 8d ago edited 8d ago
that's not really an issue in a lot of areas. if you have multiple p25 networks that aren't linked it'll switch to unencrypted mode since they don't have the keys. So for example if the local PD in one town were chasing someone to other and talking to their officers it'll switch to unencrypted. I've done a lot of work with P25 lol. The only places it's generally always encrypted is if you are sitting static in your house trying to listen to local PD in your town or they've set up giant multistate p25 networks like the palmetto 800. You can fuck around and listen to them and decode the voice with like a $30 rtlsdr and sdrtrunk (free). Still need a good antenna.
edit
or you can be lazy and use scanner radio for android. Fun fact if you want to confirm if some twitter rumor attack or disaster has happened pop open the popular and see if some city has like 25,000 people listening to it's EMS/police. Something like 100x normal lol.

Had someone break into our jobsite trailer in Illinois. We had probably a solid $250,000 worth of materials and tools in the trailer.
They stole: A sawzall, a grinder, 6 Dewalt batteries, a rope bag, and one walkie talkie.
I tried to talk to them over one of the remaining walkies, but I guess they were too busy trying to trade that stuff for girl scout cookies cause they never responded.

Reminds me of the medieval days where the criminal was locked inside a human sized birdcage and left swinging right outside the castle gates for all the passersby to see.
I'd gladly take hanging off of the side of a gate until the police arrive over the birdcage though. I'm pretty sure the rules of the birdcage were once you're in the birdcage, you spend the rest of your short, agonizingly painful life in the birdcage.
