A business owner in California was shot and killed after a dispute over a LGBTQ+ Pride flag displayed outside her store, authorities said.
Officials from the San Bernardino county sheriff’s office said Laura Ann Carleton, 66, was pronounced dead at the scene of the shooting on Friday night.
Officials said that during an initial altercation at Carleton’s clothing store, a male suspect “made several disparaging remarks about a rainbow flag that stood outside the store before shooting Carleton”. He then fled the scene.
Deputies were able to locate the suspect, who was armed, and he was shot dead after a confrontation with the officers. By Sunday, the man had not been identified.
This is on those politicians, like the TOFF and Wrong DeSantis, who have made anti-gay bigotry a central part of their "platform". They are engaging in stochastic terrorism and I believe that they know what they are doing.
For the record:
ReplyDeleteStochastic (/stəˈkæstɪk/; from Ancient Greek στόχος (stókhos) 'aim, guess')[1] refers to the property of being well described by a random probability distribution.[1] Although stochasticity and randomness are distinct in that the former refers to a modeling approach and the latter refers to phenomena themselves, these two terms are often used synonymously.

I make the distinctions described basically for these reasons

Stochastic, is not random! Is what I remember from stats.
ReplyDeleteWhile the what and where has a randomness, that it will occur is statistically predictable.
This has been true for several decades give or take. The
scale of time is a element in that prediction.
So we have those advocating of systemic bias against
marginalized groups and a larger group that subscribes
to that bias. There is no formula that tells us
whom (singular) might go and do a nutty but when you
have maybe 25 million people which person is random
but how many in that population is predicable to
the limits of predicting what a large enough group
may do. That multiplied by time takes us from if,
to when.
So will something bad happen is no longer a question.
Where seems to have bias, and when is still random
allowing for a the factor of time. The predictable
item may well be frequency.
Eck!
Gee, If Islamic jihadist get N number of virgins in paradise as matyrs, what do MAGAts like this get?
ReplyDeleteAn eternity in a gold plated bathroom with the TOFF telling you endless how 2020 was stolen from him. Being a pool boy in Death Valley with Steven Bannon. E
What does the Holy TOFF writ tell us?
I do not think your reward in the Hereafter is what you think it is.....or in the hereandnow, if you survive.

ReplyDeleteYou misunderstand randomness, hence the video previous. Another try
