    Trucking company not going to cities pushing to defund police:

    'We have to keep drivers safe'

    From last week.
    https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/...-defund-police

    A trucking company owner told Fox News on Wednesday that in order to keep drivers safe, he will not direct services to cities that are pushing to defund the police.
    “Our first priority is to support our drivers and their safety when they are on the road,” co-owner of JKC Trucking Mike Kucharski told “Fox & Friends First.”
    Kucharski said that defunding the police is a bad idea because drivers carry valuable cargo on the road for weeks.
    “Everybody wants to steal this,” Kucharski said.
    Kucharski said that his company is also avoiding states pushing to defund the police because his insurance coverage is prone to dissolve.
    “Another issue that I am seeing in the future is I have cargo insurance, liability insurance, fiscal damage insurance, and I am very curious how when I renew my contracts at the end of the year, if there is going to be language -- if I am going to even have coverage going into these places,” Kucharski said.
    “Right now I have coverage going all over domestically. You have to get special coverage for Canada or Mexico or you might have to buy special riders for this on top of everything.”

    Since that's a train video, I'm gonna go ahead and derail at this point briefly.

    At what god damn point in time are we going to stop using the phrase "flat screen TVs"? I wonder if they're also color TVs?

    Had to skirt downtown last night to return my Uhaul trailer. Things were fairly quiet, but a moderate demonstration was occurring by a police sub-station I drove past. Enough that they blocked through traffic on that block. However, besides a lack of social distancing, everything seemed peaceful. I didn’t stick around to find out much.

    Bridges are up and a lot of roadways were blocking or redirecting northbound traffic (I live on the South Side).

    I read the cops had actionable intelligence to do something, but only about a half hour’s notice. Still, the criminals had pre-stationed box trucks and stolen bicycles for get aways. Clearly this was planned well in advance. Chicago PD must either be sorely lacking in intelligence gathering ability or their hands were tied at upper levels. Neither would surprise me. Though I suspect it was the latter. I dunno how long it’ll be before Lightfoot has to shitcan David Brown. My big(ger) concern is that she’ll hire some even more panty-waisted uniform filler to replace him. Chicago PD desperately needs lead from the front admin but are unlikely to get it.

    Hot water heaters....

    ETA that as late as 2004 I had to pay $3.00/night extra in a Monterey, VA hotel to get a room with a color TV. B&W was still the standard.
