Nothing says you have to open the window first.

I say the same thing about documentary filmmaking. I used to love all the old school stuff, where the narrator just delivered the lines with a calm matter of fact tone. Now, every narrator needs to try and ramp up the drama to 11 on every line they read, and it's very unpleasant.

They should bring back defenestration. Would work so much better with modern architecture.

I say no quarter asked, none given at this point. The time for reconciliation has past, their ideology must be eliminated.

What you do on public property can be curtailed slightly more than what you do on private property. Simply because by being public, it is a common good, and your use of it can't infringe on other people's use of it. It gets very tricky to balance that. But think of it like reserving the...

If I had Elon money I'd be funding slander lawsuits for Kelly Kirk left and right. Everyone posting shit like Steven King did would be getting notice. And the discovery would be about "where did you get the idea Charlie called for stoning gays ?". Keep following that shit back to the...

Honestly, I wouldn't shed one tear if all the people saying "Charlie got what he had coming" got what *they* had coming.

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe he'd done it before and knew he could manage it. But that doesn't change the fact that he probably tossed the rifle down and didn't try to climb down with it. So not seeing it in his hands there doesn't mean much.

Speed vs stealth. The sneakiest way up may not be the fastest way down. He could take all the time he wanted to get up there without being seen. But once that shot went off he was on a very short clock to get away. And an area that is obscured when everyone is 200 yards away listening to...

2 of the slogans in the rifle were specifically antifa slogans. "Hey fascist, catch" is not something anyone on the right is likely to write. We are not in the habit of accusing everyone who disagrees with us of being a member of an archaic Italian political party. That's the bread and butter...

There *are* immediate threats. You can't pull a knife on someone and yell "I'm going to kill you" and then say it's just "free speech". Even if the guy you directed it to doesn't shoot you dead on the spot (and justifiably so), you should still be able to be prosecuted for the threat.

Fuck the minimum wage. It's an abomination. The minimum wage is zero. Anything else is a price fixing scheme. They never work well.

No, not all human lives are equal. Some people are exceptional and their lives *are* more valuable than average. And some people are worthless pieces of shit and their lives have negative value. Dr Jonas Salk and Dr Joseph Mengele are not the same.

The left invented cancel culture. It will not go away until they start getting burned by it. While I agree with you in principle, that is not where we are as a society right now. If you want to fix things you need to play by the existing rules, not the ones you wish you had.

Sure, and the assassination of JFK was no different than a junkie getting killed in a bad drug deal. Fuck no, they are not all the same.

The odds that he was aiming for the neck are vanishingly small. But the odds he was aiming for COM at 200 yards and hitting the neck instead are pretty good.

With a 30 magazine clip. And did you see how far the shoulder thing went up on it ?

Slowly

How exactly would Russia "deal with this" ? I can't imagine a response that wouldn't end very badly for them.

If their interpretation of the 2nd is anything like the 1st, it is "rights for people who agree with me, but not for anyone else". Remember, these are the people who will cling to the 1A when they are literally inciting violence, and then call it "hate speech" when you disagree with them that...

You repeat yourself sir...

Here's the problem. She wants everyone to feel safe. That's not the right answer. Because it's an impossible situation. You want the criminals to be scared shitless. That's the only way for the rest of the people to feel safe.

LoL @ "we got switches". Dude, some of the people Trump is probably sending in have an MOS of 0331 aka "Machine Gunner". You can run an insurgency, and fight occupying troops, but it isn't going to be with "glock switches" LOL.

So, some fringe groups shitposting. The difference is the groups in Palestine that post maps without any Isreal at all, are the ones running the place. If you read the "greater Isreal" wiki that *you* linked, it's quite clear that it *doesn't* include any areas that are currently claimed by...

Now show it with the real map he held up. With Egypt still Egypt, Jordan still Jordan, and Saudi Arabia still Saudi Arabia. Only thing missing is Palestine. And since there has *never* been a nation of Palestine there ever, I don't think you can even call it missing. Imagine if the Sinaloa...

If that's what it takes. If your neighbors keep putting bullets through the wall of your house, how many of your kids need to be killed before you stop playing nice ?

If he has ICE and the Guard play "Ride of the Valkyries" as they come into Chicago, with some Blackhawks flying over head, I may lose my shit LOL. It's also quite possible that move could save millions as half the gang bangers self deport.

What Mexican territory have we conquered lately? We bought most of what we have that used to be Mexico. Except Texas, but we didn't exactly conquer that. Basically, imperialism is a no go since WWII. Very few nations have tried it at all. Saddam tried it, and got his ass kicked by the...

We deal with problems. But we don't claim territory. Putin was planning on establishing an independent government in Donbass when he was done, right ? And if they voted to re-join Ukraine, he'd let them, right ?

Isreal literally tried to give Gaza back to Egypt with the rest of the territory after the war. Egypt accepted the rest but *refused* to take Gaza back. I believe the phrase "those assholes are your problem now" was used. Then Egypt proceeded to build a wall that would make the east Germans...

What is it with Russians and their persecution complex. Nobody wants any of that shithole. If NATO decided to wipe the Russian army in Ukraine out to the last man, they still wouldn't claim any Russian territory.

I understand the allure of isolationism. I'd love nothing more than to be able to do it. But the rest of the world (and especially Europe) seems determined to drag us into their bullshit over and over. So, all the people saying "that's their problem stay out of it" are delusional. It's their...

Nobody wants Russia, any more than they want Gaza. They just want the shitweasels running both places to stop attacking their neighbors.

Class action lawsuit in federal court for actual damages.

Yea, tell me again what the difference between those guys and gangbangers is ?

Need a class action suit by all of these closed shops against NYS.

Following the law in NY is like avoiding wearing the wrong color hat if you live in a gang infested neighborhood. You don't do it because it's right. You do it because criminals will victimize you if you don't. Personally, I'll take the gang bangers, they're more reasonable than the NY...

That's the real problem. They'll all talk about how they're protecting society from the bad guys, right up until the bad guys are in their gang, then it's protecting the bad guys from society. Anyone else would have been face down on the floor with a knee on their neck. But that guy they sit...

Malaria used to be one of the top causes of death. Nobody gets it in the developed world anymore, and it's not because there's a vaccine, and mosquitoes DGAF about your superior hygene. They killed off so many mosquitoes that the disease lost it's distribution vector and is practically extinct...

Yes, and it killed off more than insects, arachnids and many other invertebrates. But, it was *very* good at what it did, just a little bit too indiscriminate. But, the point was it was very safe for mammals, so showing spraying the child with it as a "bad idea" was a bit of fear mongering...

To be fair, DDT worked very well. The only real unfortunate side effects was that it killed all the insects, not just the bad ones.

Implementing this is a terrible idea. But forcing the left to mount the legal fight to prevent it could be genius. Pass the law, then let them spend tons of money running it up to SCOTUS and setting precedents that will prevent anything like it in the future. Specifically structure the...

Intercepting a shipment of chemicals from one country to another doesn't really sound like any of the US's business, to be honest. Imagine if Mexico decided to intercept a shipment of gun parts from Austria to the US because some of the guns would end up illegally in Mexico...

Life is still pretty easy for most people. We have some of the most comfortable lives of any humans who have ever existed. There are plenty of injustices, but people see them as isolated incidents. People will put up with a lot of shit if they get to keep their comfortable lives. But there...

Things need to get a lot worse. But widespread door to door confiscations might do it.

The thing about a modern civil war in the US is that it's not a geographical divide. It's ideological, and at most urbal/rural. That means the divide will run right down the middle of most institutions like police and military.

Nobody needs to agree on anything. Needs no central planning at all. Takes about 3% of the population to successfully accomplish something like this. Basically a couple million people independently decide a line has been crossed, and then they independently pick targets of opportunity...

Why would you fight the cops or the national guard or the military ? You just hunt down the people who sent them, and all the people who voted for those guys. You don't fight when they show up at your door at 3am. You don't even fight when you show up at their door at 3am. You just show up...

My how things have changed. When I was in school we had multiple combat vets as teachers. OfC, we didn't have school shootings then either.
