Alex Jones is trending on twitter right now because apparently he just happened to see some child smugglers loading up a van in downtown across the street from Alex and an entire camera crew.

orange juche posted:So are they doing this pistol brace thing via EO or an actual bill? The ATF has the power to redefine all sorts of stuff in order to ban or allow things without any legislative or executive action taken. The EO from Trump that banned bump stocks didn’t need to be one, he could’ve just sent them an email or a tweet to have the ATF redefine them. Installing a former gun control lobbyist who also thinks Waco was A-Ok is probably going to lead to a lot of new policy letters in the next few years. No discussion of actually enforcing any of the current laws on the books, like chasing down straw purchasers etc. Just another move from the Biden admin to follow Liberal policies and flip off the Left instead of material improvements

US Berder Patrol posted:I think I got lucky with finding one that's right next to my buddy's house, and we're in a community with lots of GI Bill-educated GWOT vets. We've discussed dragging a bunch of our non-chud veteran friends into the place and taking over the machinery of it, which indeed seems like what the old chuds want us to do. In all honesty, I bet we have enough Front Range gippers to have our own literal clubhouse lol I’d be down for this, but I looked it up and apparently I’m not eligible to join because my enlistment was spent stateside

Nick Soapdish posted:This comment made me think of the joke someone posted (probably accurate) of a fictional Command Master Chief visiting a suicide attempt sailor in hospital and asking if he completed his suicide awareness training and I got a good laugh to myself I was chosen to lead my command’s suicide awareness brief a couple of months after I had returned from emergency leave because my sister had committed suicide, and while I was in weekly counseling sessions because I had self reported to mental health after recognizing a few red flags.

orange juche posted:Bail money is bullshit but kyle rittenhouse should have never had bail set for him, just loving leave him in there until his trial. Yeah either somebody is a clear and present threat to society or they’re not. Having the money to make bail doesn’t mean somebody is less of a threat, it has the exact opposite effect of being a demonstration of the resources they can use to cause additional harm to society.

I want to say the cop should have tased her much earlier when he first saw her swinging the knife around at people instead of waiting until the last minute, but he might have easily done another whoopsie and thought he was holding his taser when he had his gun out. My main issue with saying that the victim was using lethal force and so lethal force was justified in response, is that okay maybe if a family member or neighbor of the person being attacked had used a CCW and shot the girl with the knife, I’d understand that. That makes some amount of sense. But a cop should be held to a higher standard. Their job isn’t to murder anybody who acts threateningly. Their job should be to deescalate and pacify situations so that the justice system can sort it out later. If you’re going to be a BLUE LINE SHEEPDOG then you need to actually prove you deserve the immunities and privileges granted to you by acting with a level of bravery above and beyond what should be expected of an average person. Which means you can’t just start blasting when things happen, you’ve gotta be willing to put yourself between danger and the community members you serve. And in this case that means the at least 4 cops present should have used their tasers and their physical bodies to restrain the teenage girl with a knife when it first became clear she was a threat instead of waiting until she was mid-swing on her second target before executing her. iKon posted:She never used lethal force and the cop did. Stop justifying police murder. Uh, a knife is definitely lethal force.

iKon posted:Ok. So maybe she swung it at the other girl, but it's too hard to tell from the video. Maybe she was about to swing it at the girl in pink. Maybe. Are you trying to pretend that I said the cop was in any way justified in shooting her? Because I explicitly said that I don't think he was justified in the post you quoted.

My main issue with vegans are the types who claim it’s the only ecologically ethical and sustainable diet, meanwhile they’re almost exclusively urban and need all their food shipped in to them and think that populations in arid or remote communities need to grow more beans in the Arctic circle or the savannah.Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Yeah if y’all wanna talk and bash weird culty poo poo that’s terrible for you, then keto is at the forefront imo. Let two keto people find themselves out on the wild, it’s weird. Keto predates Atkins and was originally a diet to help reduce the rate of seizures in epileptic children. Atkins just looked at the fat-burning aspect of it and commercialized ketosis as a desirable state.

Best Friends posted:I have a huge lay interest in anthropology, so when I first heard about the "Paleo diet" I was intrigued at the concept I imagined it meant. i don't know how you'd manage to live as a hunter gatherer these days but if you can pull it off more power to you. Paleo is definitely a much better diet than ketosis, but it’s also not really based on any historical reality for sure. If you’re ketogenic on a paleo diet you’re avoiding a lot of really important staples like sweet potatoes and fruits and nuts for no reason. It’s an interesting concept and can teach people how to eat cleaner, but yeah it has very little if anything at all to do with actual hunter-gatherer diets.

KirbyKhan posted:Oh man, I never thought it'd be me walking the line of You should do more reading before you dig any deeper on this and before you spread around any more unintentionally transphobic misinformation. Here, give this website a read. Maybe check out some of the studies cited. Definitely read through the case studies. I'll go one step further though and really make this a lot easier for you  See those green pips distributed all the way across the spectrum? Yeah those are female athletes with testosterone levels higher then most of the male athletes tested for the study. This isn't getting in to the range of responsiveness individuals have which makes comparing hormone level to hormone level meaningless as a metric. We also need to touch on the fact that there are XX males and XY females as well, who can have different conditions that cause their bodies to develop one way or another. Physical sex is such a broad range of different combinations of physical features and chemical compositions that there's always going to be a wide range of overlap in physical capabilities between even elite athletes. It's the whole reason that female troops are viable, there are enough females who meet the performance cutoffs. That's also ignoring the idea that the cis athletes aren't using steroids and other enhancements. Athletes in all sports get caught doing that all the time, it's basically an arms race of developing new dosing protocols and different formulations versus developing new tests to detect the dosing.
