An Arkansas state trooper who slammed an 18-year-old woman to the ground and punched her in the face during a traffic stop is now facing public outcry and calls for an investigation over his use of force.

      It’s a spectacular waste of resources in any other circumstance, but I wholeheartedly support this initiative to set an example.

      Future offenders will however be aimed significantly lower, towards a 3 meter thick concrete wall instead.

        Hear me out. It takes a lot of Delta-V to fire things into the sun, however, it takes significantly less to fire things into the black emptiness of space!

        I’m sure you could fire many at once. Just have to concentrate them first. Fortunately the USA already have places for that.

        Why not off a cliff? Let them come to terms with their own mortality as they plummet to their doom. Bonus points if it’s into the ocean with jagged rocks.
