Sci-fi author Charles Stross has a throwaway line in one of his books about a British SOF guy who is described as something like "scrawny in the way of British special forces, rather than the oxes that the US bred" and it struck me as being both weirdly accurate in my experience and also something I never heard anybody say before. The only UK SOF guys I ever knew were Royal Marine Commandos and were built like whippets, where as the US guys I know all have solid builds.

Yea a bunch of the nzsas dudes i met were little short guys that were just absolute machines

I remember watching a UFC ppv once and there was some really intense long ad about some kid and how his dad had died and hes all depressed. I wasn't really paying any attention but it went on for a ridiculously long time, and it was super deadpan. Then at the end he's eating a burger and his mum's like "he gets sauce on his face just like his dad :unsmith: "

And it's a goddamn McDonalds ad

I can't believe more journalists haven't lost their cool and just started screaming and berating him, it's impressive.

One of them needs to start doing the old

Comrade Jacinda is one step closer to declaring herself dictator for life of the Union of South Pacific Socialist Republics

So legit question, not smarmy: give me any plausible explanation for what we see on video that isn't murder and isn't magic negro strength we feared for our lives while outnumbering a cuffed man 4 on 1 BS that I really expect is the extenuating evidence.

Just wanna nth the point that looting and rioting isn't chosen as some "best course of action". It's a reaction to loving overwhelming feelings of frustration and helplessness. Desperate times - desperate measures and all that.

Did you guys actually read the article about them "working together"? The comments from the club owner make it seem pretty likely they wouldn't have known each other except as like, vague recognition.


quote:

Chauvin was our off-duty police for almost the entirety of the 17 years that we were open,” Santamaria said. “They were working together at the same time, it’s just that Chauvin worked outside and the security guards were inside.


"" posted:

Although the two overlapped working security on popular music nights within the last year, Santamaria can not say for certain they knew each other because there were often a couple dozen security guards, including off-duty officers.

Not saying they wouldn't have known each other at all, but it seems far less of a thing than it's being made out to be.

To be honest I think it's far worse if he didn't know him. No excuse of prior animosity or anything, just casual police murder.

The suppressor has a heat resistant cover around it to prevent it burning anything it touches after a mag or two. 5.56mm is the same diameter as 22lr so the exit hole is gonna be the same size.

Oh huh, for some reason I thought 22 was way smaller diameter.

but even right now there's a lot of black protesters arguing with antifa-wannabe turds to stop trying to escalate.

Again, putting provocateurs or looters under some nebulous umbrella of "antifa" is a made up right wing narrative, and we reaaally should stop propagating that poo poo.
