EpsilonVonVehron, in Aussie Bus Driver Fed Up with 'Misbehavior' Dumps 18 Kids on Side of the Road

I guess they couldn’t find any stock footage of an Aussie school bus. They did manage to find footage of a US school bus driving on the wrong side of the road though.

Not an appropriate reaction by the driver, but have you met children?

pHr34kY,

Queenslander childen are next-level.

If I say the Queen protected her pedo son and his cronies, does that count as Queenslander?

GrimSheeper,

No, that’s just you Queenreporting on the Queenfacts

They’re now afraid to get on a bus, she said.

Ok. Let me guess, they’re also terrified of the color Yellow now.

damnYouSun,

When I was a kid if this happened to me I would also be afraid to get on the bus. All the buses going to other places would conveniently be perfectly fine though. Just the school bus would be a problem.

That’s messed up …but also kinda funny

raltoid,

Mostly messed up because he dumped all the kids, some as young as 5 to walk around on roads without sidewalks and such.

Our school bus drivers threw four kids off once without any real consequence. They ended up walking to school. But they were 14 and were laughing at the driver while vandalizing the bus.

Relatable. Obviously completely unacceptable behavior. Yet relatable.

“Crack Baby Shark” would be a good title for a mashup of the Crack Baby cadence and the song Baby Shark.

the cocaine bear sequence we needed

tahoe, in Florida man to give vasectomies to peacocks

Oh that’s actually pretty cool! I wish vasectomies were more common for pets, castration is a violent and archaic method of dealing with that stuff

collegefurtrader,

Oh yea a horny tom cat would be totally cool if its cum just wasn’t fertile.

RagingHungryPanda, in Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

In case anyone isn’t in the know, Gov. Greg Abbott just removed mandatory water breaks for construction workers

BillyTheSkidMark,

Welcome to your future current capitalist hell-scape. Denied water breaks in record breaking heat waves, dying because of said forced work without water, accused of taking drugs because your dying makes you act odd.

Brought to you by the same people that deny global warming.

MaxVoltage,

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration proposed a fine of $13,052 against the construction firm for failing to protect workers from heat hazards on the job, which the company is contesting.

wow human lives sure are cheap

Drusas, in Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

A foreman insisted Espinoza call the police, claiming Infante’s bizarre behavior was due to drugs, and the foreman pushed for a drug test when emergency medical services arrived.

Yeah, it is not within your right as an employer to direct the medical care of your employee. Piece of shit foreman. He should be directly sued himself.

geekworking, in Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

had a recorded internal temperature of 109.8F

This guy was almost 110 and they were trying to pour water on him to cool him.

Your can have seizures at 105 and 108 is permanent brain damage territory.

What they need to do is sue for $100M not $1M.

A few headlines of companies suffering big financial losses can convince companies to do the right thing more than some law with a $10k fine. Companies will always do what is less cost/risk. You have to make the cost/risk of employee deaths more.

dylanmorgan,

That’s what the push for tort reform in the 90s was all about: minimizing the cost of lawsuits brought by injured parties. It never passed on a national level AFAIK, but Texas has a lot of limitations on burden of proof and maximum damages that could affect this case.

Also, and this is entirely speculation, they might be looking for a number that they can actually collect. If you go too big, the LLC can fold and you might not see a dime.

GildedGriffon,

Abbott was the Texas AG and helped re-write legislation that reduced payouts on medical torts almost 30 years after he sued because he was paralyzed by a falling tree.

dylanmorgan,

Instead of an elephant, the GOP symbol should be a guy pulling a ladder up behind him.

Cabowski, in Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

This was completely avoidable with common sense which most conservatives don’t seem to have.

pseudorandom,

Common sense standards for worker protection is literally illegal in Texas.

sadreality, in Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

Ahh strong conservative values strike again

riodoro1, in Portuguese tourist assaulted by Turkish police, jailed for 20 days for "looking gay"

But all travel offices across europe will still paste billboards everywhere telling you how absolutely fucking great your last minute vacay is gonna be in totally not a totalitarian shithole of a turkye.
