Golf ball deformation at 70,000 fps (!)

Pushkill says...

It could also be one of those batting cage balls, I could see one of those doing this for sure. There is no size reference to tell if it is a golfball or not, just the look. Anyone want to count dimples? =D

Anime Is A Prime Example Of Why Two Nukes Wasn't Enough

Pushkill says...

That's actually right on the money. The Anime/Manga and Film/TV industries of Japan saw a huge boom in terms of artists/directors in both Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the years following the bombings. The children who were very young when it happened grew up in a post-nuke society and in the late 60's and 70's began to express themselves and the dystopia-oriented themes that were happening following the recovery. A lot of the visionaries involved in the field who would be considered as creating that "strange Japanese sense of entertainment" had direct involvement in some form or another in the bombings. It's what happens when you grow up in a post-apocalyptic minded society. So in other words, the nukes are actually a large reason why these forms of entertainment evolved into what they are today.

If you look at japanese tv shows, it's fairly obvious that the two nukes already screwed them up pretty bad...

Police Brutality in Victoria, BC.

Pushkill says...

I don't beleive kicks are justified at any point unless the officer is fending off an attacker, which this was clearly not. This is why they go to police training to learn submission holds and pressure points; its knowledge to safely take control of the people and the situation, safely for both the cops and suspects. This just escalates and promotes violence rather than stopping it. Watching that predator hand weapon video makes me wonder why cops even need to use excessive force that could seriously hurt or kill someone (even though they might be breaking the law, its not worth killing someone over a bar fight)when they could just use the predator to quickly force someone to submit. A hard full force kick to the torso is not the answer.


>> ^kurtdh:

The video isn't clear enough to understand if the first kick was justified. The second kick on the second individual, however, seems like it could be justified. When the man was told to lay on the ground and put his hands behind his back, he refused to do so. Even when one officer was attempting to get the individual to put his hands behind his back, the individual resisted and struggled to keep from being arrested. I don't know if the arrest itself was justified, but that is completely besides the point. When you're given an order by law enforcement and you don't comply, they have the right to increase their level of force according to the matrix of force they are taught in the academy. If the second individual didn't want to get kicked in the ribs, he should have followed the directions of law enforcement from the beginning and not resisted arrest.
