They should be arrested for crimes against cattle. That poor steak looks boiled.

I make this about once a week on my induction stove:


I usually add more spring onions, which gives it a few more sprinkles of greeen.

An since I serve this with rice, I always increase the amount of sauce by about 50%.

The induction stove is really great for wok cooking, because it can easily produce the heat needed for these recipes.

Those poor steaks! Regardless of what they were cooked on, that's got to be a crime against food!

Bible study and work without pay: the shadowy world of sober living homes

In a largely unregulated industry, some residents trying to get sober are made to work 40 hours a week at restaurants – but don’t receive a paycheck

End the war on drugs.

Certainly, but that's not the end of the story. People are still going to find themselves in trouble with the law because of what they've done while their judgment and reflexes were impaired by drug use, just as they do because they've been drinking.

That kind of racket has been going on for decades. I hear about something similar on NPR every few years, located in "the usual suspects" group of states. For example, South Dakota allowed unregulated military-style bootcamps for teen offenders until one of them died and there was an investigation maybe 10 years ago. There was a similar series of shelters for alcohol rehabilitation from at least the 60's with a similar modus operandi.

Daniel Harris: British teenager whose videos were linked to two mass murders in US is jailed

Daniel Harris "inspired" mass killer Payton Gendron who shot dead 10 people in Buffalo, New York. The British teenager was also said to have influenced Anderson Lee Aldrich, the only suspect in a shooting at a Colorado gay bar in which five people were killed.

Would the case ever have made it to court in the US, or would he have been protected by the First Amendment?

Well, he's white, so he's just a misguided youth exercising his first amendment rights.

Generally in the US you have to demonstrate a specific threat for a criminal case. A civil case would only need to show a reasonable expectation that someone would take action based on the statements. General hate speech is something that courts would not take action on under the First Amendment protections.

An example:

1. Youtube commentator says "I wish John Smith would die" is protected as they do not assume their listers will kill John Smith.
2. A crime boss says "I wish John Smith would just go away" in front of members of his organization that he knows are ready and able to kill John Smith would be actionable.

(b)at the time he publishes it or causes it to be published, he—

(i)intends members of the public to be directly or indirectly encouraged or otherwise induced by the statement to commit, prepare or instigate acts of terrorism or Convention offences; or

(ii)is reckless as to whether members of the public will be directly or indirectly encouraged or otherwise induced by the statement to commit, prepare or instigate such acts or offences.

He could be deplatformed.

(and face civil action, loss of his job, face difficulty getting a new one thanks to social media background checks)

Would the case ever have made it to court in the US, or would he have been protected by the First Amendment?

It's been something close to 25 years since I went to law school so I say . . . I don't know. I recall cases of people getting arrested and convicted for convincing people to kill others without them themselves killing anyone.

First Amendment? There are exceptions. Like the first amendment wouldn't protect someone from screaming fire in a theater causing people to stampede and kill, when there was no fire (and the person didn't think there was fire).

Then, of course, there is songwriter & Scientologist Charles Manson (listed his religion as Scientologist and completed 150 hours of "auditing"; the 1968 Beach Boys song "Never Learn Not to Love" was written by Charles Manson, altered by Dennis Wilson).

In early August 1969, some Manson Family members committed murders in Los Angeles. The Manson Family gained national notoriety after the murder of actress Sharon Tate and four others in her home on August 8 and 9, 1969, and Leno and Rosemary LaBianca the next day. Tex Watson and three other members of the Family committed the Tate–LaBianca murders, allegedly under Manson's instructions. While it was later accepted at trial that Manson never expressly ordered the murders, his behavior was deemed to warrant a conviction of first degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
...
On January 25, 1971, the jury found Manson, Krenwinkel and Atkins guilty of first degree murder in all seven of the Tate and LaBianca killings.

How many seconds did he hesitate before even checking to see if his wife was okay?

 

[Bartholomew Gallacher]

US news agency Associated Press recommended on Twitter to avoid the use of dehumanizing labels, like the poor, mentally ill, disable or the French. That tweet was soon deleted but enough French saw it and the French are not amused!

US news agency AP again clarifies tweet advising that writing 'the French' is 'dehumanizing'

The Associated Press stylebook on Thursday advised against the use of 'general and often dehumanizing ‘the’ labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled.'

How many seconds did he hesitate before even checking to see if his wife was okay?

He waited until he was advised how to react. The publicity team reached consensus very quickly. But it took time to transmit the decision to his earpiece.
