My father was beaten to death and left on the street to die. There was a brief investigation in that a detective asked some coworkers at my father's job if they noticed anything suspicious before his death but they determined it to be unsolvable within a couple days, closed the case, and never looked back. We've tried to raise awareness and pushed the police to investigate further but they have essentially laughed us off and it's been pretty impossible to get people to give a shit. There was never a motivation or suspect, just a man beaten to death and left on the street to die. It didn't appear to be a mugging as he had his wallet and watch. The police didn't make any effort beyond what I describe above so my siblings, my mother, and I are left with no answers and no justice. I understand some cases are unsolvable but the police didn't even try. I know you say RI isn't crazy but it feels crazy to me when something like this can happen and no one bats an eye about it.

I had a family member murdered in the streets and the police did absolutely nothing to find the culprit so I'd say that qualifies as a crazy event for me in RI. I assume you are talking about events on a larger scale than a an isolated murder but it sure did ruin my life and the lives of my family members. Just hope something like this doesn't happen to you because it happens in RI and the cops don't care.

The bus should've let the guy go through because he was already past the point where he could let the bus go and the bus decided to block him anyways just to be a prick. All the bus driver did was slow down and inconvenience everyone, including his passengers. If you drive like the bus driver does and think he was in the right here, then fuck you too.

There's a facebook group called RIFC Rhode Island Film Collaborative that meets periodically at a bar. It is an open format kind of scenario for amateur and professional filmmakers to network and discuss projects. You might want to check out one of their meetings.

I believe the main issue they are worried about is the treacherous 5 day ocean voyage to get from mainland USA to Rhode Island. It's simply not cost effective to deliver packages there.

My fears of pressure cookers randomly exploding has now been validated by the Boston police.

I eat oysters all the time and they've never given me the shits. Also, most people don't drink a few beers and immediately need to shit themselves. If you have that issue, you should check in with your proctologist, bud.
