To Protect And Serve

The Boys are back from hiatus, and so much has happened in the interim. There was yet another mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois. Another unarmed Black man, Jayland Walker, was gunned down by police in Akron, Ohio. A ten year old Ohio rape victim was forced to leave the state for an abortion due to Ohio's archaic rape laws and Governor Mike Dewine. A Bodega owner in upper Manhattan was forced to defend himself with a knife resulting in the death of a disgruntled customer. Budding NBA star Miles Bridges has thrown his career away after  being arrested for brutally besting his wife. If that wasn't enough, Godfather star James Caan passed away.
