She wasn't attacking the agents she was trying to get away from them. It's the equivalent of a homeowners shooting a burgler in the back from several yards away. The law does not allow deadly force in that situation. Cops can only do it if the person is an immediate danger to others which is an extraordinarly high standard like if they have a gun an are shooting randomly into houses or something. Fuck this country and fuck the resident surly bootlickers.

Because, you know, that's how cars, tires, and physics work. So, any time a law enforcement incorrectly positions themselves near the hood of a car, they're completely justified to start blasting if the car moves forward at all? That's what y'all's argument is basically, correct?
Pretty sure the argument is that anyone who resists the regime deserves to die. Nothing more, nothing less.

LOL, nice try with your stats and anecdotes. He has full blown CDS (California Derangement Syndrome). He was told that blue state cities are lawless murder havens and red state cities are clean safe utopias and you'll never convince him otherwise. Like all magats he's incapable of any form of indpendent thought. I too have been to SF, Seattle, and Portland a few times over the last several years. I jogged past a large homeless encampment in Portland at night more than once and got a beer near there during late hours and was never hassled once. I was also in NYC last year and there were some rough characters but again wasn't once hassled, the guy who tried to sell us coke was actually pretty cool and talked with us for a minute before getting back to work. I get hassled regularly for change at the downtown QT here in my red state utopia and saw a methhead zombying around an intersection dropping my kid of at school this morning. I swear, these people are the biggest bunch of dickless pussies when it comes to big ol scary cities.

If you don't drink and you don't like to gamble, when you chance into a casino (work events, restaurants, concerts/comedy) it's wild how disgusting the experience is. Sad sack people and loud, wild noises with the smell of a 2015 Kia from Avis that has been chainsmoked in for years but whose wet-dry vac did it's best to clean. It's actually very sad and it's the most depressing when you see people who objectively should NOT be gambling their prescription or car note or rent money doing so.
Anyways, free beer though.
I work with some of the casinos around here and have had morning meetings at the properties. The place is filled with old people just pressing buttons at 8:00 am and smoking like a freight train. I was in Shreveport a long time ago when I was broke and they still gave free drinks in the Casino as long as you were playing the slots. We just pressed the penny button every minute or so and got wasted. Fun times. They don't do that at Indian casinos in Oklahoma and I doubt anywhere else anymore

Weird thing for me, as much as enjoy the craps table, I gamble $0 on sports. It changes the experience for me, and I don't like it- but I don't think it should be illegal for the next guy/ gal.
My favorite casino dad joke: My favorite game at the Casino is the beer game. I pay $3 and I win a beer. Never lost.

I watch a lot of Jomboy Videos where he gives out Draft Kings codes and it's no different to me than if he were adverstising for Better Help or Me Undies or any of the other companies that are big into sponsoring podcasts and youtube vids.

Gambling is like any vice. Make it illegal and it just goes underground to be managed by criminal elements. I don't like it either, I seriously do not understand the mentality of doing something in which you are all but guaranteed to lose money, but its a thing and might as well be legal. I also support legalized marijuana even though I hate that half the people at the grocery store reek of weed.

17 minutes ago, Macklemore said: Are you an idiot? Why the fuck would the new regime be another theocracy. These protests are driven by a love of the homeland, rejection of Islam and love of monarchy.
I honestly can't tell if this is sarcasm. I suspect that Islam will still be widely practiced in the region, the question is if it will be state religion to the exclusions of others with requirements that laws comply with religion, i.e., theocracy, because that to me is a massive problem, not just in the ME, but everywhere, including the US where we are being pushed daily in that direction.

Don't ask why I went down this rabbit hole a while back. The Browns move has always fascinated me. I always wondered how it worked techincally that Cleveland got to keep its name and history. As a technical matter the Browns franchise was "deactivated" and the Ravens were created as a new franchise, so their history begins in 1996. I hate that it was a unique situation, I think this should have always been the norm. Most notably, Houston should have been "deactivated," Tennessee should have been a new franchise, and the Oilers reinstated in 2002 with all of its history intact.

If @Incredulity needs examples of actual “socialism”, I would point to the government’s ownership stake in publicly traded semiconductor companies and putting their thumb on the scale in media mergers. But I don’t think he does. He’s just bugging out over branding.
Yup, they lost the narrative over the last 40 years referring to any economic policy left of Reagan as "sochulist."
