I doubt it’s a moral line. Seems like a pragmatic stance that standing behind him isn’t worth the bad PR they’d get for doing it. It’s certainly something, at least.

Minor injuries are common and occasionally recruits die
Just ordinary “new job” stuff then. Like any other employer.
The legal action alleges the practice is an unnecessarily violent rite of passage that recruits have to endure to be accepted into the police “fraternity.” It notes that other recruits suffered injuries before Moses started his drills, including one person whose nose was broken.
The lawsuit also claims that training teaches recruits that excessive force is “officially tolerated, and indeed culturally expected.”
Moses’ lawyers, John Holland and Darold Killmer, say that mindset has nurtured a violent police force and led to lawsuits costing Denver millions of dollars.
“Fight Day both encourages Denver police to engage in brutality and to be indifferent to the injuries they inflict,” Holland said.
A culture of violence, bullying, and not caring when they hurt or kill people? Surely not. What an utterly absurd accusation to level against the police.
Minor injuries are common and occasionally recruits die
Even worse, this quote comes from an assistant professor of criminology and criminal justice at the University of South Carolina. Also, the start of the quote states:
The type of training described in the lawsuit is common in the United States and helps prepare recruits for scenarios they could face on patrol [emphasis added]
Maybe I’m being misreading, but I read this as the professor is condoning this type of training. This type of training seems to support the whole “Warrior Ethos” and I know when I left the Canadian Army almost a decade ago, they were trying to eliminate this type of training as higher ups recognized how toxic it is.

It rained. They did specifically call out that if there was enough rain it would basically ruin this whole thing anyways. They got something like 2/3 weeks worth of rain in a single day over the weekend.

Most app clients don’t fully support formatting yet. I’m on Boost and neither spoilers nor superscript work.
I don’t know the numbers on each app vs web clients, but I suspect apps are a significant portion. Ignoring their limitations is ignoring a good portion of your users.
E. coli levels should stay at or below 900 colony-forming units per 100 milliliters for “sufficient” water quality, according to World Triathlon. Only 1 of 4 test sites along the Seine showed levels below that limit, AP reports.
Training events had already been postponed with elevated bacteria levels following the downpour over the opening ceremony. Heavy rain can overwhelm sewage and wastewater systems, allowing untreated water to reach the river.
There’s more rain in the forecast for Paris tonight. But for now, both the women’s and the men’s triathlon events are scheduled for Wednesday at 8AM and 10:45AM local time, respectively. There’s also a backup date of August 2nd.
Seems to be pretty shitty odds of this happening on Wednesday
Even if they did clear it up by then I wouldn’t want to swim in it. That’s like swimming in the toilet right after you flushed it. There is still probably residue or something. Gross lol
It’s a river though, it’s never going to be all that clean. Yea they should wait till it follows to regulation required levels but expecting it to be anything near clean is unreasonable
