    “This was unlike anything our team has ever experienced,” Nick Cocchi, the Hampden county sheriff, said of the incident, which was captured on video released by his office and posted to YouTube by MassLive.

    Oh, so let me get this straight: Six months of jail time for weaponizing apian assault on badge-wearing servants of capital, but absolutely zero consequences for the systemic, routine devastation of booting an 80-year-old cancer patient out of his house so some predatory lending vulture can liquidate his assets. The sheriff found the bee incident “unlike anything our team has ever experienced.” Yeah buddy, because you experience housing destruction so fucking regularly it doesn’t even register as anomalous anymore. It’s background radiation at this point. Just another Tuesday enforcing the financial rape of sick people. “We try to help people through difficult situations,” Cocchi said, while literally being the instrument of their most difficult situation. That’s some real I’m very sorry for this but I’m going to do it anyway energy. “We’re compassionate genocidalists” is basically what you’re saying. Rebecca Woods showed up with an actual physical manifestation of “NO” and the state’s response was to break her face into pavement and jail her for six months. But the eviction? Chef’s kiss. Totally cool, totally legal, totally normal. The fact that his statement treats getting swarmed by bees as the shocking aberration rather than, I dunno, the routine judicial destruction of someone’s life is just peak American law enforcement tunnel vision. You know what’s “unprecedented”? Actually giving a shit about the person you’re destroying. Woods failed, the guy lost his home, and everyone’s fine with that. That’s the part that should be “unlike anything we’ve experienced.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
