Friday Squid Blogging: New Extinct Species of Vampire Squid Discovered
Paleontologists have discovered a 183-million-year-old species of vampire squid.
Prior research suggests that the vampyromorph lived in the shallows off an island that once existed in what is now the heart of the European mainland. The research team believes that the remarkable degree of preservation of this squid is due to unique conditions at the moment of the creature’s death. Water at the bottom of the sea where it ventured would have been poorly oxygenated, causing the creature to suffocate. In addition to killing the squid, it would have prevented other creatures from feeding on its remains, allowing it to become buried in the seafloor, wholly intact.
Research paper.
As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven’t covered.

Those are two mutually exclusive approach to mob psychology.
Any crowd should be closely monitored and controlled in such way so when it turned into violent mob LEAs MUST immediately suppress it by overwhelming concentration and application all spectrum of modern less than lethal technologies (e.g. see @jello 117 last week post on this blog) mounted on drones rather than jeopardizing life and health of human police force and gambling with pacification approach (see 1 above)since situation is already beyond constitutional rights and the goal is to minimize victims on mob side, LEOs,innocent civilians, destruction of private and public property and restore Law and Order asap.
