Depends on your jurisdiction, in many cases they keep a record around until the legal limits tell them it needs destroyed or in some jurisdictions it may have to be destroyed on demand. Whether or not they follow the legal limits is another thing altogether, the branch may remind them but it often gets forgotten about.

This isn’t new, you’ll see this from time to time, you pay a broadcaster like Sinclair or iHeartMedia and they will give a scripted interview.
Businesses and politicians will both do this from time to time.

Alec Baldwin Shot a Woman Dead
by Simon inso alec baldwin shot a woman dead on set and seriously injured another man.. what do we put this down as?
a tragic accident?
maybe ... except that implies no one was to blame.. the more you find out, the more it seems that this was due to negligence and lack of attention to safety.

@road: real ammo is not forbidden on set, often it is necessary to shoot real bullets for closeups or else the result does not look realistic. It is forbidden in certain situations (eg if you’ll shoot at a person or inside a building)
Prop gun, basically means “property of the theater” gun, it’s for all intents and purposes a real gun. Baldwin cheaper out and spent 8000 on the armorer, 5000 on the ammo and a few thousand on the guns while paying himself $250k and a chunk from the profits, which was planned to make him another $650k. So he was going to make nearly a million dollars and cheaped out on everyone else.
For a Western, that is a very low budget for armorer and gun safety. Given ammo is very expensive these days, you’re on a very tight budget, having custom ammo made is very expensive, just the smoke stuff costs >$1/blank in 9mm, for a “western” revolver we’re talking probably .36 or any of the Colt caliber black powder which is >$3/blank or even more if it’s a revolver with a caliber that is no longer in common production.
So you do a few takes with the classic shootout scenes, shoot a few hundred bullets every take, you’ve just gone through your entire budget, so closeups may use a cheaper “real” bullet available on the open market for cost reasons. You can create realism with black powder, some chemicals to make the flash and a small object, but it’s still dangerous (Brandon Lee got killed by one of these) and even more expensive ($15/bullet is not unheard of).

@Anna Marina: here is legislation introduced by a molester: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB145
It would potentially lower the age of consent to 14 in some cases for molesters and even lower for molesters under the age of 21 (down to 11). This is being pushed as LGBT equality.

The Shat Heard Round the World
by Simon indid it really happen?
i keep seeing it on twitter .... did biden really ... have a bathroom accident ... in the vatican?.

All things point to something embarrassing happening. A 15 minute meeting with the pope turns into an hour and a live event gets cancelled. He walks in with a black suit and out with a blue suit. Why did he change during a Vatican visit?Then rumors from the Vatican itself start circulating it was because a bathroom accident.
Regardless of what exactly happened, the lack of transparency is what is causing this to trend.
I guess from now on they’ll need two suitcases to travel with the President at all times, one nuclear, one regular one.
And Google has blocked Poopy Pants Biden from being auto-filled or popping in the suggestions and both Facebook and Twitter are hiding the number 1 trend unless you actively search for it.

Lol so you respond with an ad hominem. Let’s admit it: “it’s a cult”
Just to educate you: if someone responds to your argument with a logical argument and you say it’s a non-sequitur without any arguments, and then when called out you start calling people names, it looks a lot like your cognitive dissonance is deflecting the issue at hand. Which is easily recognized on an ex-cult site.
I truly hope you get the help you need when you start researching the facts about your cult. You can find them by the hashtag #WalkAway, started by a gay liberal activist that likewise found out the truth about ‘the truth according to CNN’.

The Poor the Wealthy and the Middle Class
by Simon inthe poor spendthe middle-class savethe wealthy invest.
the unique circumstances of the lockdown and stimulus checks has highlighted these differences in stark ways.. on one hand, you have jumps in sales and valuation of companies like foot locker and nike, as people spend their "free" government money on sneakers.
they blow it on useless tat.

Being wealthy does not make you happy, but it sure makes it easier to be.

@Great Teacher: just because you don’t believe the proposition doesn’t make it untrue. You can find all the facts, Biden himself eulogized a Democrat senator that opposed the 1960s civil rights bill because he was a Cyclops at the KKK, the writings of Sanger are well known and actively hidden by the modern media.
Do you believe that handouts and welfare is a net good for the black population or do you accept they were designed to suppress and control the black population. Because you can find writings from modern Democrats, including our current President that are eyeopening on the topic.
Did you know that fairly recently, Project Veritas documented that Democrats have mounted severe efforts against black candidates, both within and outside their party. Their goal is to get the black community to remain a voting base while preserving the rich whites at the top. Recently they said it outright when a congresswoman said Democrats need the black to vote but don’t need more black voices at the top.
And who called Obama the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy - that’s right, Biden. Joe Biden sponsored a Bill that put tens of thousands of black men in prison—and it took until President Trump was able to get rid of that discriminatory law. Kamala Harris likewise put hundreds of blacks in prison, sometimes through injustices, in order to benefit from their free labor. Then she has the gall of calling herself African American when she has no roots in the black community. Well documented, all of this.

Science News article: ‘Case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans
by Disillusioned JW ina news article has the headline of " ‘case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans"; see https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/oct/19/case-closed-999-of-scientists-agree-climate-emergency-caused-by-humans .
the article says in part the following.. 'the scientific consensus that humans are altering the climate has passed 99.9%, according to research that strengthens the case for global action at the cop26 summit in glasgow.. the degree of scientific certainty about the impact of greenhouse gases is now similar to the level of agreement on evolution and plate tectonics, the authors say, based on a survey of nearly 90,000 climate-related studies.
this means there is practically no doubt among experts that burning fossil fuels, such as oil, gas, coal, peat and trees, is heating the planet and causing more extreme weather.. a previous survey in 2013 showed 97% of studies published between 1991 and 2012 supported the idea that human activities are altering earth’s climate.. this has been updated and expanded by the study by cornell university that shows the tiny minority of sceptical voices has diminished to almost nothing as evidence mounts of the link between fossil-fuel burning and climate disruption.. the latest survey of peer-reviewed literature published from 2012 to november 2020 was conducted in two stages.

This ties in with the other post about 1975:
U.S. Secretary of State Dean Acheson said in 1960: "I know enough of what is going on to assure you that, in 15 years from today [or, by 1975], this world is going to be too dangerous to live in."
You just have to read the Watchtower to know how many statesmen and scientists, typically from the left-wing persuasion, have predicted the end of the earth to come 'soon', only so, like Acheson they can then implement their extremist policy.
Acheson famously created the World Bank, was after years of praise blamed by the left-wing media to have been at the cradle of the loss of both East Germany and China to communism and advised the Presidents (Truman and JFK) into disastrous foreign policy that eventually lead to the losses in Korea and Vietnam and allowed China to put Taiwan into the place it is now.
The Watchtower is only copying a page from their books, as is the woke left generation of today. Make a vague disaster, spout it through media outlets to collect massive funds, when it goes wrong, find a scape goat and do it all over again with another crisis.

@joey: I never thumb up or down. So definitely not me, I like a good discussion.
The number of people dying from exposure to cold in developed countries is 20x higher than the people dying from exposure to heat according to the Lancet. They also found that less people die during extreme weather events, while more people die when there are gradual changes in temperature (basically it’s the boiling frog analogy).
This number of deaths from exposure has been drastically reduced since the beginning of the industrial revolution due to things like mechanical heat and air conditioning but it’s a lot harder and expensive to heat a cold winter than a few hot days in summer.
People in Australia and places in Europe (Germany and France especially) died a lot from heat exposure last few years because rolling blackouts and poor energy production, basically the green movement towards renewables causes old people homes to be without air conditioning during extreme weather, a condition we haven’t seen since the 1970s.
In California, wildfires are caused by the green movement as well, they demanded no forest management for decades and now the entire underbrush is a dead wood tinderbox. In Australia, 75% of the fires were started by arsonists last year, from kids to climate change activists, dozens of people were arrested. A 2008 study found that in Australia about 85% of fires were triggered by human activity - this includes arson, but also carelessness or recklessness.
