  140.  @benjaminfuchs8500  'Every vaccine ever' uses live or dead virus, in a gelatin and immune booster sabot. The mRNA vax is not 'every vaccine ever' and that's exactly the point. It is a completely different approach, more similar to a two-stage injection; using mRNA as a syringe to inject an engineered and synthesized protein to deceive your immune system. It's like taping a photo of someone else on your windshield, to trick the cops. It works. It doesn't work well, which is why 'breakthrough' cases, may be 3 - 5 times higher than reported. COVID exploits slow reacting immune systems, so even a small jump on it, produces remarkable results. Efficacy numbers are based upon a presumption that the recipients would have become critically ill without the vaccine. This is extremely problematic reasoning, given the stark transition between COVID's general low severity and substantial lethality; chances are in the high 80% that you wont even get sick, but a ~1% chance you'll die. But, I digress... the issue is that, not killing you like arsenic, is not the same thing as safe. The valid concern here, is the cumulative effects of repeated introduction of synthetic pathogens, to override and reprogram the immune system. Vaccine testing , not development, but testing, usually takes 7 -10 years, prior to approval, specifically because 'every vaccine ever' does not 'present side effects in 2 - 6 weeks'. That's just the vaccines that have come to market through the 7 - 10 year approval process. Get it 🤨

  251. Ukraine is flaming out. Theyve squandered far too much combat power in distributed actions. The capture of Robotyne is as much Russia doing their usual, as it is due to Ukraine's offensive strategy. Russia is still doing what they've done all along, they just have fortifications behind them, now. Everyone is under this misconception that their first line is the toughest and once that cracks the whole thing will collapse. Their first defensive order is skirmish positions. Their strategy is to retrograde from the forward line to the next, progressively reinforcing their defenses from the front and the rear. The zone between the 2nd and 3rd line is the tough one. Far tougher than what Ukraine has faced yet. Ukraine has resorted to squad level assaults at Robotyne, the last week or so, probably because they're unable to rotate enough reserves to reconstitute losses, while maintaining an advance. They probably have enough combat power on the area to fortify Robotyne for a posistional battle over the winter, but these small unit maneuvers are probably 'clout' actions for the propaganda. They have multiple minor offensives in progress along the line, but they appear to be small, unsupported infantry groups. They lack armor, air support, artillery support and significant air defenses. So, they dont have much potential. Ukraine is out of time and their army is verging on operational ineffective, so they have to either pick a spot and throw whats left at it, which is what Russia needs them to do, or they'll have to call it quits on the main offensive and just keep up these harrassing attacks to fix Russian troops along the line. What Russia has been waiting on, is for Ukraine to pick a spot and go for it, to fix their forces in one AO and then they can move in their reserves from Donetsk and roll on the Kharkiv AO with the 100,000 troops in the North. But, its looking like Ukraine is ready to call it a draw and forego anymore serious offensive oprerations, to rob the Russians of theirs. They're going to run out the fumes, but Im skeptical that they'll accomplish anything bigger than Robotyne.

  361. Your understanding is the definition of cope. Wagner declared the 'meat grinder' objective at the outset. Ukraine mocked it as an excuse for losing and threw everything it had at Bakhmut, including pulling critical forces from defensive positions in the North and South; which is why they're in grave danger of Russian breakthroughs there, now. It was when it became clear that Ukraine could not stop Wagner's advance and they had overcommitted, that they attempted to co-opt Wagner's strategy, as a face save. It was bullshit then, its bullshit now. The very best possible case for Ukraine, is that they eliminated a drain on Russia's resources by getting rid of their undesirables. This in no way, shape or form, taxed Russia. If anything, its made Russia leaner and stronger. 3 times Ukraine began a withdrawal and 3 times Wagner suckered them back in, by claiming they were out of ammunition and men. Repeatedly, NATO advisors told them to pull out of Bakhmut and repeatedly, Zelensky and senior Ukrainian leadership refused, because they had painted themselves into a corner with all their hardass talk. Ukraine sent 10s of 1000s of their best against Russian convicts and got their ass handed to them. Now, because no one has learned a damned thing about spouting thoughtless propaganda, instead of losing a hard fight to a tough, smart determined enemy, your mockery and dismissal of Wagner and Russia, has left Ukraine's heros, rotting face down, in the puddle of shit you've spent the last 8 months throwing at a hotdog vendor and his shovel.

  962. 1) breaching the dam, makes it easier for Ukraine to cross the river upstream of the breach 2) the flood washed away a year worth of Russian defensive fortifications and anti-armor minefields in the Kherson AO 3) the flooding of the left bank flood basin at Kherson, makes it much easier for an amphibious assault to bypass defensive works, with amphibious armor and assault vehicles that UK and US have provided. 4) it allows Ukraine to divert defensive forces from Kherson to the offensive front at Donetsk. There is evidence of recent arrival of those forces. Which, if true, means they had to be already on the move, when the dam breached. 5) Ukraine has attacked the dam at least twice, with artillery and missiles. 6) Ukrainian military revealed in a MSM interview, that they had tested their ability to strike the dam 7) Ukraine destroyed 3 dams, flooding hundreds of square miles and destroyed 6 bridges all in the first couple weeks, to delay Russia's advance. 8) the rapidity of Zelensky's trip to Kherson indicates pre-planning. Lindsey Graham boasted that Russia had a 'rude surprise' coming. Flooding the Southern end of the front, allows Ukraine to pull their entire Southern army and concentrate it at Donetsk for a major breakthrough; and when Russia drains Southern defenses to respond, Ukraine can make an amphibious assault at Kherson and penetrate Crimea. So, Ukraine had done it before, was practicing doing it again, have responded to it in astonishing time, even for a First World peacetime gvt and it creates an opportunity for a massive blow against Russia. Yup, it all adds up... Russia did it.

  1734.  @gb202-3  Just saying there's nothing whatsoever remarkable about Russian 'oligarchs' having PMCs. Its literally a case of 'everyone is doing it'. The outfit I work for was directly involved in taking down Blackwater, for whatever that was worth. So, I have a bit of an inside look at how how a lot of these outfits operate and recruit. Blackwater was basically a biker gang. They preferentially recruited soldiers involved in unnecessary gunfights and police officers with records of questionable shootings, excessive force and generally bad conduct. That is an exception, but it was tolerated, until Karzai publicly protested the conduct of contractors in Astan. That prompted DoD to launch a covert audit program and sent undercover investigators under auspice of an exchange program, where PMCs would exchange personnel for cross training. Im getting a little out into the weeds, so Ill wrap it up. A lot of contractors were involved in outright illegal conduct, by any standard, but they were the exception. In general though, all of the contractors were doing things that pushed the limits of their legally sanctioned operations, as 'security' personnel; numerous cases of them responding QRF for Army and Marine units conducting offensive operations. But, rather than reigning them in, we changed the laws and regulations to allow it. If the US were engaged in a near peer conflict, where we were facing an adversary capable of defending itself and taking significant casualties, there is zero doubt that we would be putting PMCs on the front line in offensive combat operations, just like Wagner; and would be recruiting the same quality of personnel.

  1803. Congratulations, you might be a good parent. Meanwhile, there are parents who never accept that their child grew past a toddler. This whole story is very suspicious. The 'bombs' had no fuel or fusing and there is no noted evidence of any experimentation. This is extremely uncommon. Typically, you see bombers evolve, not just appear fully matured, with a bunch of bombs that need only to be armed. This looks a lot, like a fantasy, or some kid's weird toys, that someone overreacted to. Anecdote: when I was a kid(probably about 10 or 12), I made toy 'bombs' all the time. One time, I made a 'molotov cocktail', that had everything but the cocktail. I wrapped it in masking tape, because I playing with a glass bottle, as a toy and was thinking of safety (🤨). I had left it in the yard and that night, the police came to my neighbor's house to get their drunk and extremely disorderly uncle. The cops found my toy, in the grass and told my parents that he had tried to burn our house, but it didn't go off... because he had wrapped it in tape, so it wouldn't take fingerprints. A couple days later, I had to fess up to the cops, that it was mine, when I found out they were charging him with arson. We have no real context, here and the media has a vested interest in creating a narrative. Just saying, be careful what you believe, before all the facts come out. This could just as easily be a bunch of airsoft props made by someone with too much time on their hands. Or, dictator parents spinning a narrative to the cops they called, because they've had it with their defiant 10 year old. During my field training for my psych program, I saw 17 - 25 year olds, with parents who thought it was not just ok, but their Right to interfere in everything, go through their stuff anytime they wanted, check their pockets, open their mail, etc., because its 'their house'. This often results maladjusted, yet harmless adult children.

  1806. This offensive was very clearly planned around Russia throwing down their guns and running away from NATO tanks. That didn't happen and now they're scrambling to adjust. Their 'main thrust' is going to be something akin to a 'Roman column', where they're going to stream their entire army into one or two points, or possibly a section of the front, like a meat drill. They're going to try to do Bakhmut. This gives the advantage of continuous troop rotation against a fatiguing defensive position. The problem is that last year's offensive was only minimally successful. Russia was outnumbered 3:1 with no defensive works and Ukraine still burned ~10k troops at 5:1 losses making Banzai runs at Kherson, before shifting to Kharkiv and chasing away some militia forces. Then, Russia took 2 months casually pulling out of Kherson. Now, Russia has a ~1.2:1 advantage and multiple layers of defensive fortification, the entire length of the front. Russia's strategy is to break from heavy contact and withdraw to the defensive line. Each successive withdrawal reinforces the next line. This is intended to absorb an attack. Russia will keep doing this until Ukraine runs out of time, or steam and is compelled to commit their main force to an objective. Then, Russia will go on an offensive one or two other places. It looks like one of those is going to be Kharkiv, as Russia has massed some 100,000 troops in the area, along with about 5,000 Wagner and 5,000 Chechens. Ukraine has the combat power to give Russia a reeling blow. But, its going to cost them their army to do it, on the gamble that someone will give them a new one, before Russia recovers.

  1856. There is a pattern and some nuance to Russian strikes. Whenever you see something like this, its all but guaranteed UK or US advisors/personnel were present. Its not simply that they are HVT, but rather that Russia targets them, specifically, under their own ROE. So, if two NATO advisors are in the same place, then anyone within the blast radius, is a 'combatant'. Exactly how the US rationalizes and conducts strikes in public areas. What has not so much been lost, as buried/covered up in this conflict, is from the outset, Russia has followed the US playbook. In the days prior to the invasion, DPR officially requested military assistance to effect defense against an imminent Ukrainian advance into Donetsk. Thhe reason Ukraine lost so much armor so fast, was because they had assembled the largest armor firce since Desert Storm and had it staged fir an invasion of Donbas. Ukraine had been heavily shelling Donetsk and Marinka at this point and responded DPR request for assistance with airstrikes in Donetsk and Luhansk City. The opening salvo of the war, was Russian cruise missile strikes against the specific airfields involved in the strikes. At every point, Russia has limited their actions to Ukrainian ROE. Recall everyone being completely baffled that Russia wasnt bombing everything with a pipe or cable coming out of it and made the critically imbecilic assumption that they simply lacked capability. So, believing Russia couldn't respond, Kiev attacked the Crimea bridge, aka 'civilian infrastructure' and in the most brilliant strategic masterstroke of the 21st Century, Zelensky got tweaked out and trolled Putin on Twitter about his 'birthday present'. The missiles haven't stopped, since.

  1907. So, as it turns out, it wasnt Republicans' fault, it wasnt Donald Trump's fault, it wasnt Texas' fault, it was NRA's fault, it wasnt the gunshow loophole's fault, it wasnt easy access to firearm's fault... it was the Federal Government's fault. Texas law worked as designed, NRA didnt sell him the guns, it was a Federal bureaucratic failure, that allowed a Prohibited Person to clear a NICS background check, for the weapon. can anyone tell us, how does that affect the narrative? Why do they keep using AR15s, John??? Because YOU KEEP TELLING THEM TO! YOU, John and your ilk, continue to tell psychopaths on a mission to commit the ultimate transgression, which weapon will achieve the greatest outrage. Yes, absolutely, anyone actually familiar with these weapons, knows that a pistol would be every bit as effective in these acts. They are not using it as a rifle, they are using it to execute defenseless, cornered victims, at close range. They use an AR, because the media and politicians keep telling them how awesomely purpose built is is for rampage murdering. Youll note that when he encountered resistance from rifle range, he dropped it and ran, because he wasnt prepared to use it as a rifle. How much skill and firepower do you think is required to shoot a supplicant victim at 5 feet? Why dont they use knives and fire, John??? Because they dont have to. When they cant get guns, its EXACTLY what they do. Australia has had more massacres, more victims and more victims per massacre, in the 20 years since the Port Arthur incident, than in the 20 years prior. The weapon of choice - fire. China is plagued by mass knife attacks, only few make it to CNN. Europe just gets blown up and run over, every other day. Google it, John... GOOGLE IT.

  1951.  @doodlebob3374  They do work and nothing is 100% safe; thats a disingenuous and absurd standard. You do realize that when this started, most people thought any kind of coronavirus vaccination was an impossibility, specifically because of the way it mutates. The fact that we have a vaccine that works as well as it does, is astonishing. The problem with the vaccines is A) people's understanding of immunization, B) how the mRNA vax works and C) how its administered A) Vaccination and immunization is not a forcefield and never has been. It does not prevent infection. Think about it, your immune system can't attack it, unless you are infected. What it does, is give your system a BOLO, so that when its detected, it already knows what to do and can fight it off, before it takes root and causes illness. Most symptoms of viral infection, are from your system carpet bombing infected tissue. What immunization does, is give it a smartbomb that only attacks the virus. Most of the time, it can achieve this before the infection spreads beyond its initial site and sometimes not. Thus, why you can have invisible, or 'asymptomatic' infections. Occasionally, your system doesn't fight it off fast enough, or its in a place that allows it to evade your immune system, until its established. This is a so called 'breakthrough'. This is how every vaccine/immunization ever, has worked. B) Conventional vaccines use complete virus, live or dead, to expose your system to a full inside and out '3D' example(why natural immunity is almost always better than vaccination) This is a very effective strategy, but it also limits the types of viruses you can safely immunize against. The mRNA vax is a completely different paradigm. It uses a synthesized mockup of a single surface feature of the coronavirus; the 'spike'. Its a fairly unique feature and provides an extremely efficient and precision targeted vax. But, itts like using a photo to fool a security camera. If that feature changes significantly, the vaccine doesnt work. The good part is that the mRNA tech enables rapid adaptation and mass production of the vaccine, like a 'security update'. The bad, is that it may require multiple or periodic updates. This is never a desirable outcome. C) There is a stark difference in rate of effectiveness and side effects, dependant upon who administered the vax. The mass vaccination scheme, is designed to be as convenient and painless as possible. The reason it hurts when your Dr pokes you, is because they use a larger needle, go deeper into denser muscle and aspirate(draw to check for blood, to make sure its not in a blood vessel). If they hit a blood vessel, they have to move the needle and reaspirate. This is rather uncomfortable and time consuming and requires special training and a lot of experience to get right. The mass vax technique is just about opposite of this, using the finest needle, fatty injection site and no aspiration, for a poke thats so quick and painless, you didn't even realize it happened. The result is inconsistent administration when it goes into fat instead of muscle and side-ffects when it goes into a blood vessels and straight to organs. All that said, the safety issue is not the 'spike protein', or anything thats in the vaccine, but rather how it works. The antibiotic resistant 'superbugs' everyone worries about, are not antibiotic resistant, as antibiotics don't attack the bacteria, your immune system does. The 'resistance' is in people's immune system, from overexposure to antibiotics, just like any other drug tolerance. The concern with the covid vax, is overexpose to '2 dimensional' synthetic pathogens, compromising the immune system's ability to detect and fight viruses. There needs to be very long-term study, before young healthy people start taking these vaccines, so that we don't find out in 20 years, that half the population is immunocompromised from them. It all comes down to risk management and informed personal choice. Lies and misinformation cannot defeat lies and misinformation; and you have to weigh your immediate risk vs your future and manage your expectations. If you're at high risk of getting it and giving it, you should probably get vaxxed. If you're at high risk of developing severe illness, you should probably get vaxxed. If you're a young, healthy, average person, you probably shouldn't and you shouldn't let anyone even try to force you.

  2183. +Dick Morhead You didnt answer the question. The question is, which Obama policies are responsible for the current economy? You couldnt actually name any, because the job creators, that are responsible for these numbers, largely credit Trump policies directly. This is why we havent seen a gradual rise, but an explosion, that directly correlates with his policies. The 'good economic numbers under Obama' that he 'poo pooed' were only good looking numbers, which practically everyone but the same news outlets we see day in day out criticizing Trump, said was nothing to be excited about. Largely because the majority of 'job growth' was in part-time, minimum wage service jobs and gvt jobs. Service jobs are only tenable, when there is a surplus of disposable income; when people dont have cash to burn, they dont pay others to serve their plate, which is why we see millions of table waiters complaining that they need $15 per hour, to survive; and why we see service industries replaced with prefabs and automation. Gvt jobs are fictitious jobs and are Largely dependent upon a poor citizenry to administer regulation and assistance to - the goal is to get people off the gvt tit, not hire more nurses to hold their head because their neck is too weak to suckle on their own. Being so economically astute, Im sure you can see the longterm ('battleship turning') problem with jobs that take a cut of your earnings, to pay you from? And no, battleships dont 'take awhile' to turn, they are high performance vehicles that can turn in the time it takes you to get out of your parking slip. So, just nitpicking another thing you dont know what youre talking about.

  2474.  @neurofiedyamato8763  There are more sinister applications, like inducing auditory hallucinations. In the early 90s, RAND/DARPA worked on a project called the Battlefield Transmission System, that was allegedly cancelled. There is a current system called Battlefield Information Transmission System, which may or may not be somehow related, but is nothing more than a mobile network; so BTS should not be confused or conflated with BITS. The prototype BTS used a cranial transducer(worn like a sweatband around the head), to wirelessly transmit commands directly into the brain. It did so by stimulating the auditory cortex with a morse code type pulse. It was to eventually become a fully wireless system, using technology very similar to '5G'. That said, there are two areas of legitimate concern: 1) large-scale implementation and saturation of the environment. While limited small-scale testing has shown no ill effects, the same was said for DDT and many other technologies. There is a very real and valid cause for skepticism and concern about everything with a chip in it, radiating on this frequency. 2) Privacy. The most substantial threat of 5G implementation is that everything will be connected and auditable. In other words, your f'n toaster will collect information on your toasting habits and talk to my refrigerator about it. A very clear implication, is the ability to track anyone, aywhere, in aything. This will, of course improve user experience, so that's a super duper good thing 🙄

  3101.  @YouREsoBEAUTIFUL00  Everything you just said, is wrong. But, sure, lets explore the odds... So, 98% survival rate. I guess youd voluntarily stand in a room with 100 other people, while someone on a catwalk randomly fires a bullet into it. But, that statistic is for a headshot, how are you with just getting paralyzed, kneecapped, crapping in a bag for the rest of your life? Because, those odds are more like 50/50. All of you quoting contextless statistics, need to learn how to read probabilities. 1 in 100 does not mean you get 99 free passes before you take the hit. That 1 can come up on your first spin. Furthermore, statistical distribution is clustered, not even. No, vaccines are not created to prevent infection. If you had even a basic understanding of biology, let alone critical thinking skills, you'd know better. Its not a forcefield, you have to actually get infected, before your immune system can detect and fight it. Duh. Vaccination is meant to inhibit infection and prevent disease - infection and disease are not the same thing. Which brings us back to statistics. 95% efficacy means 5% of exposures result in progressive infection. That efficacy is calculated for a single discrete exposure; walking past someone in the grocery store. Each successive exposure lowers the odds and continuous contact, such as caring for an infected person, drops the odds through the floor. Most infections are passed from someone you had no idea was sick. When your system doesn't fight off the infection before symptoms begin to appear, its known as a 'breakthrough'. While breakthrough is less common with conventional vaccines, conventional vaccine tech is highly limited in what it can be applied to. Coronavirues are highly mutable and as such, it was thought no vaccination of any degree would be possible. The fact that there is a vaccine that works at all, is a technological marvel. These vaccines are not even that different in efficacy, from common conventional vaxxes. What's different, is your on-demand information about it and the sheer number of vaccinations given; things you weren't privy to for polio and MMR vaccines. You people have all been brainwashed and institutionalized to a dichotomy. Two things can be true at the same time, vaccines can be effective and the smart, responsible, right thing to do; while at the same time, be wrong to compel them or discriminate for them. Its a matter of deciding if you would rather get back to a normal life, or get some more dopamine injection from outrage politics and oppositional defiance. Because, until people can take it upon themselves to be responsible and cooperative, its just going to get worse and no amount of bullying or denial will stop it.

  3138.  @paulybeefs8588  Your argument fails from first principle. Unless, of course, you're saying the quiet part out loud, that this is the West's war and Ukraine has nothing to say about it? Hes not talking simply about EU, but Ukraine and all of Europe. What no one seems to get their heads around, is the reason this is called a 'special military operation', is because its a Russian constitutional constraint. Contrary to Western propaganda, its not some kind of euphemism; Russians in fact do respect rule of law and their laws have restricted the number and type of troops they can apply, as well as what kinds of weapons and targets. Until now, they've been restricted to ~200k deployed troops and military targets directly engaged against Russian forces. Example: they must track a weapon from the battlefield to a depot, or from a depot to the battlefield, in order to strike said depot. This is why they've hit so few training camps and weapons depots, despite knowing where they are. No one seems even casually curious about why Ukraine still has electricity, water, phones, internet, etc, despite knowing without doubt that Russia has the capability to deny all of it. There is some question what a 'partial mobilization' means legally, but it will probably ease the constraints on targeting strategic infrastructure, like utilities and services and more importantly, state level leadership. This allows them to wait until winter sets in, when there is nothing anyone can do about it and start taking all of that away. Nothing will be more catastrophically demoralizing to troops, than to assume their families are freezing and starving in the dark. Assuming, because they can't even communicate with them. If you think the London Blitz was hard, wait till you see it with precision cruise missiles and TBM blasting every building with a Ukrainian flag on it to rubble and hitting everything with a pipe or cable going into or out of it. You are an unmitigated fool, if you think they they haven't, because they can't.

  3176. A couple points about the weapon: 1) it is home manufactured and therefore its entirely possible there are more than one. The barrel, which is what marks the bullet, costs less than $100 and can be replaced in seconds. He certainly had means to have several weapons and or spare barrels. As a home manufacture from aftermarket parts, theres no way to tell if its the original barrel or how many times it's been replaced. 2) the ammunition recovered with the weapon is FMJ(Full Metal Jacket) which is a solid non-expanding bullet that will go right through and continue traveling for a significant distance. This could make it very difficult to recover the bullets and then spatially link them to the crime scene; they could be a block away across the street, or embedded in a parked vehicle that drove away to who knows where. Whether that was the purpose of the ammunition choice or he just didn't know any better, at this point Id believe either. However, if the ammunition recovered with the weapon is the same as the live rounds that were left at the scene, those can be fairly conclusively matched. If the weapon has certain 'quirks', it will uniquely mark the spent casings. A malfunctioning weapon can produce unique identifiable markings. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if the ammunition recovered with the weapon had the writing on it. None of which is conclusive in isolation, but its all cumulative. No matter though, because just Pennsylvania and the Federal Gvt have enough indefensible charges against him to put him away for a significant part of a lifetime; he was caught in possession of an illegally concealed, illegal weapon, an unregistered sound suppressor and multiple forged ID, even presenting one to the police, which directly places him in the vicinity of the NYC crime. Whether or not they match the bullets to the weapon, hes done. Im skeptical hes going to like his new free healthcare plan better than his old one.

  3400. ​ @Jay-vt1mw  Ukraine says they have, without any evidence. The wreckage they showed, was common to several different missiles, but nothing uniquely identifiable as Kinzhal, ie the maneuvering hardware. I don't doubt they can and Im sure have, but I don't just take Kiev's word for the color of the sky. The Patriot was hit by a Kinzhal, after spamming it with Garans to empty the launchers. There is evidence of a substantial gap in Kiev's Eastern arc of the air defense ring. During the recent daytime strike, a Patriot fired across the city and fell into a busy intersection. The only reason to fire across the city, is a gap on the incoming side; the Westside Patriot battery fired, when it saw the incoming over the city. As well, the airfield covered by the Westside ring was hit with several missiles and drones, because the Westside battery was busy covering the city. This absentee could be caused by a number of factors from destroyed/critically damaged equipment, to exhaustion. But they all equal a combat ineffective battery. The vulnerability of the Kinzhal isnt the vehicle, but the payload. All conventional warheads have a discrete accuracy requirement that is a hard constraint on delivery options. At mach 7, the missile has to complete any maneuvers and commit to a purely ballistic trajectory, several miles out from target. High speed penalizes reaction time, but simplifies the interception physics; which results in the close contact interceptions we've seen. At slower speeds, it can maneuver longer and closer to the target, complicating interception, but the slower speeds also aid interception. Russia has been optimizing the speed/maneuver/accuracy formula, for much more effective strikes. With a nuclear warhead however, it is likely to be practically unstoppable, because accuracy requirements are about 200x less, low altitude air burst offers a shorter flight that terminates at the edge of the current interception envelope and it can attack at max speed while maneuvering all the way to target.

  3486.  @ryanrich9186  To be clear, I didn't pay as much as I probably should've (did some stupid shit 🙄) and Ive never resented it. Just providing some perspective. Ive considered the mandatory service issue, but meh, I doubt it would change much, except that more people would resent their service. I do think their should be more civil service opportunities, with similar benefits, though. Theres a lot of ways people could serve their country while giving them the choice of a full paycheck, or the enhanced benefits and let them decide what's worth more. This 'free college' thing annoys me so much, because its a farce. Everyone gets 12 years of free education and if they take it seriously enough, they wont have to pay for college. Same with grants, which only have to be paid back, if you flunk out, or quit. Even loans arent a big deal, if you use some sense about them. I spent my benefits on a psych degree, because I figured it was the lowest resistance route to a degree and I never worked a day in that field. However, I did use every credit I could transfer, got a couple grants and a loan to pay out the rest and got an engineering AAS from a community college. Got hired through their job placement program doing schematic revisions, after my second semester and finished out my final semester on the job, doing piping design(all the pipe spaghetti at refineries and such). I was paid up and debt free, in my first year. The problem is that so many people just take every bit of aid they can get, so they can essentially just keep going to highschool, get in way over their head and end up waiting tables to pay off a bunch of loans and busted grants. The rub, is that tuition and books cost so much, because the Fed gvt subsidizes the schools with all those loans and grants. If it were harder to get the aid, schools couldn't charge as much and would have to work harder at keeping students enrolled.

  3780. I think Ukraine's assaults at Bakhmut started as an attempt the trim the flanks and get Wagner out in the open. That failed, but they're still going ahead either out of belligerence, or maybe they just dont know what else to do. But the reason it didnt work, is because Russia simply broke contact and rallied at their first line defensive positions. There are multiple lines dug-in, all through that area. Everytime Russia falls back, they link up with the defensive reserve units at those positions. So, their combat power increases, with each line. Thats why these Ukrainian assaults on the line of contact penetrate rapidly and then stop abruptly. Ukraine is going to throw their entire army at this. They're compelled. What they're looking at right now, is once again 'trading lives for time'; they're going to completely destroy their army slamming it into Russian lines, hoping to hit them hard enough to stall them out another season, while Zelensky begs the world for another new army for Christmas, to take back everything they've lost. Its hard to imagine what escalations might be next, as NATO's only solution thus far, is to just give Ukraine a bigger, more sophisticated gun everytime they have a setback. What's next, when the tanks and IFVs dont work? When the airfields get destroyed and the F16s shot down? We've tried this strategy dozens of times all over the world. Its never worked and has resulted only in mass destruction and cultural devastation for the people we're 'helping'.

  3883. Its a little more complicated. SWAT is expensive and the situations that actually necessitate them, necessitate experience. So, not only is it difficult to justify a dozen man unit that costs as much as a full shift of patrolmen, sitting around doing nothing 364 days a year, but then when they're actually deployed, they're responding to a situation that can escalate into something completely different, in an instant; and thus they need realworld experience, to be effective. The right way to handle organization, is to have a small dedicated team, for high intensity entry and rescue operations and to have a large number of weapons and tactics qualified officers, who know the protocols and communications, distributed amongst the ranks. This way, there is a couple SWAT qualified officers available to immediately respond to any patrol contact, who can manage the situation until a team can assemble. Then, if it becomes a high risk scenario, like a barricaded suspect with hostages, there is a full on special ops team available, that does nothing year round, but train and operate together, for precisely this situation. Consider the value of two or three SWAT qualified patrolmen, as first responders to a shooting rampage, or armed robbery. Its a difficult problem and anyone rolling their eyes and ranting about 'pigs', just save that breath for prayers that someone you care about, never has to count on a common donut inspector to save them from a madman or bona fide Hard Corps criminal.

  3889. The conventional Kinzhal has to make a ballistic terminal attack, just like anything else. Its attack velocity determines how far out it can make a final maneuver, which at maximum velocity, the maneuver would have to be complete, at 2 - 4 miles to target. The speed reduces reaction time, but simplifies the solution and interception physics. At slower speeds, it could maneuver later, but the slower speed opens the reation window and makes intercept easier. Like everything else, its a compromise and the goal is to find the balance for a successful attack. The accuracy requirements for a conventional warhead are all the same, regardless of delivery; 30 - 40m MAX CEP. This is the Kinzhal's chief limitation and why it can't maeuver all the way to target. Thus it can be intercepted, its just difficult. A nuclear variant, with accuracy requirements in km as opposed to meters, would likely be for all practicality, unstoppable; as it can continue maneuvering at max velocity, all the way to target. The real question isnt can a PATRIOT defend against these missiles, but how many rounds do they have to expend on it. If its taking 3 or 4 times as many rounds to intercept, as other targets, for example, that is a significant threat. Eventually, Russia is just going to send a continuous wave of decoys and drones to empty the magazines and then follow on with tactical strikes and take them all out. This attack was likely a probe to map the launch sites and assess their tactics, ie how many batteries fire at a single target, whats their firing rate, how many missiles they expend per target, reload time, slew rate, blindspots, etc.

  3986. My Major was Developmental Psychology. My NeuroPsych instructor's pet subject was the Amygdalae not Amygdala - its a pair of independently operable lobes, incorporating a number of complementary structures, not a singular organ. This 'study' produced results specific to the right or left lobe yet is presented as a singular difference - this is the first point of academic dishonesty and political bias. Such bias is extremely problematic in Psychology due to the implications of intellectual differences, as 'intelligence' is how we define 'Human'. The right/left activation and even physical volume of the Amygdalae is far more apparent and effective across gender than political orientation. The second, and the most egregious, point of dishonesty is the deliberate misinterpretation of the Amygdalea function. Referring to it as 'reptillian brain' and 'fear center' is pure BS presented to conform the results to the preconceived outcome. It is, in fact, the structure which facilitates conscious processing of emotional states. That is, as it relates to fear, the part of the brain that allows us to 'control' fear and agression and process it rationally as opposed to compulsive terror, rage, depression, etc. The smaller volume and lower activation rates in the right lobe is why females are more prone to overwhelming fear and revulsion reactions and propensity for holding grudges and acute depression(due to female memory being based upon emotional states whereas males tend to remember more tangible details). Its also noteworthy in this light that females are predominently liberal, while males tend to be conservative. The Amydalae also seem to be connected with sexual orientation in that homosexuals (male and female) tend to activate their Amygdalae more similarly to the opposite sex. I could write a paper on this subject (I actually DID!). The bottom line is that this 'study' is not very positive for 'liberals' once the deliberate dishonesty around the Amygdalea function is dispelled. Thats why the only place we hear about this is in the occasional ham fisted commentary of acutely biased progressives who live in a self righteous emotional torrent. Anyone who starts feeling intellectually superior to their 'primative' conservative counterparts, based upon this data, should actually do some legitimate, open minded research on the Amygdalae, rather than running with this blatant bias because it 'feels good'.

  4150. ​ @alexandernorman5337  Hes made a life's work of turning out weaklings. He definitely is playing a psych game. Not all of it is an act, though. Hes a warrior, not a strategist and doesn't believe in anything but charging forward. So, he gets bent out of shape a little, by not having unlimited resources to feed his thirst; or by the army moving backward. But, he fully and completely grasps the consequences of showing weakness and everytime Ukraine makes moves to disengage from his AO, he publicly displays weakness. Then, Ukraine recommits. Evaluating his behavior is complicated by what you believe about Russia and their politics. If you really believe they have a stranglehold on information and censor everything about the war, then his outbursts look more like theater, as the target audience is presumed to be Ukraine and Western media. If, on the other hand, you believe the Russian people at large can be expected to see it, then he looks more like a raging hothead who thinks the Russian military are all useless imbeciles and hes really going to just ragequit and go home. I think its all of the above. I think he gets frustrated that the Russian army isnt as hard charging as he is and feels like hes carrying all the water, but he plays up and exaggerates his frustrations as an information campaign. Both sides have a god's eye view of the battlefield, so very little tactical surprise is available. Both sides have to rely almost exclusively on psychology to achieve any effective deception. Prig and Putin have spent their lives punking people like Zelensky, Righteous Strike and Western media. So, whatever Wagner says, or claims, or goes off about, Id level it toward a somewhat less dramatic reality. As to the larger Russian strategy, Russia is in a much stronger and Ukraine a much weaker position than last Fall, but they still have to be patient and very careful. They need Ukraine to commit with a concentrated effort, in order to respond to it. So, they're going to have to give some significant ground and allow Ukraine to push into their lines. Wagner is not going to like that. Especially in their AO.

  4263.  @robbiesarris9072  What are the 'wild assumptions'? Russia has 50,000 - 70,000 reserve forces in Donetsk AO and ~100,000 uncommitted main forces in the Kharkiv AO. Ukraine has mass evacuated the whole Kupiansk AO. As of a little over three weeks ago, Ukraine had incurred 25,000 - 30,000 critical casualties and lost dozens of tanks and hundreds of armored vehicles, in the Robotyne offensive; including ~50% of Western supplied armor and ~20% - 25% of NATO standard specialist personnel; per UK MoD, German Bundeswehr, NYT, WaPo and aggregated multi-source OSINT. While the main operation has only been going full intensity for around 3 months, Ukraine has been hitting at Robotyne for going on 5 months now and still isn't in full control; Russian counterattacks on the southern side are continuous. Ukraine's operations around Bakhmut have zero chances of penetration. Robotyne was selected for a reason. It was somewhat foolish, but there was reason behind it. Robotyne looks like a gap in the Russian defenses, because they incorporated it into their forward zone, using the structures instead of building fortifications. But while it may look porous, the defenses in that area, are staggered in mutually supporting arcs, 4 - 6 layers deep and is a murder box. Ukraine is not 'just getting started', they're finishing up. Certainly, they could go for broke, probably drive into Tokmak and make a big headline, but that will leave them completely spent with zero defense against the incipient Russian offensive. The only reason Russia hasn't started a major offensive in the North and South, is because Ukraine never fully committed their main force where they can get fixed and prevent redeployment. Russia was outnumbered 3:1 with inexperienced troops and no defenses, this time last year. Thats absolutely not the case now and the situation is only going to get worse, because Russia is about to mobilize another 200,000 - 300,000 this fall and they're already reinforcing their defenses. By spring, Donbas will be a fortress and Ukraine will be outnumbered 2:1. Ukraine has to start conserving their troops and digging in now, or they're going get trampled.

  4565. This is highly inaccurate. 1) They have air dominance in the active theatre(listen to some foreign fighter interviews about constantly being bombed and rocketed by su24s and gunships). They're just not venturing beyond the front. 2) They're not risking it, because they a) have no necessity to at this time and b) are saving it for operations over the winter, when Ukrainian forces are fixed by environmental conditions. Everyone habitually projects their own motives and doctrine onto Russia; both of which are fundamentally different from the West. Russia is in no hurry whatsoever, they have come to stay and are already planning for next winter's operations. They do not need to risk air assets to speed up an artillery war, because their doctrine dictates withdrawal and bounding defensive action upon significant contact and permits loss rates that Western militaries would consider unacceptable. This allows them to play whack-a-mole with enemy forces and let them punch themselves out. Then, they relaunch from a foothold, retake any ceded objectives and push a little further each time; theyve been repeating this cycle since March. Interventions are a lot faster paced, because you don't have to worry about sustainment; you just blow up everything and go home. Everyone continues to badly misinterpret and overestimate out successes in Iraq (I was there, the bottom line is Iraq never recovered from Desert Storm and they were an empty shell in DS). Whatever happens today, tomorrow, or next week, Russia intends to be there defending that territory, 20 years from now. They're on glacier time, while Ukraine and NATO are playing speed checkers.

  4594. Ill add that BVR is largely wargaming fantasy. With a handful of exceptions under very specific circumstances, every air to air engagement, since advent of BVR capability, has required visual ID of targets, per ROE. That is, you cant just shoot at shadows in the doorway. Any freefire zone will, as you noted, likely be occupied by real threats, not 3rd World operators of 2 generation obsolete export models. The main problem with BVR combat in practice, is that it gives the target a LOT of time to respond. In the case of F35, youre talking about firing a very limited number of weapons, all of which have a poor reliability factor, giving away your presence and then getting chased down and shot in the back, by interceptors. The reality is, no one has any idea if stealth even works, because no stealth aircraft has prosecuted a mission in airspace denied to conventional aircraft, neither has a stealth aircraft attacked an unsuppressed airspace. In fact, by measure of miles flown, ordnance on target and targets destroyed per unit lost/grounded, stealth has a miserably poor record. The F35 could've been a genuine gamechanger, had it been developed modestly, as a direct replacement for the F117. But, it became an investment paradox, where as the price increases, it becomes harder to drop and progressively less tolerable to potentially lose a plane. Now, we are committed to building an invincible, invisible superhero, instead of a cheap, short range incursion aircraft, thats back on its own side of the fence, before the bombs hit.

  4670. Russia is not going to have to pull troops from Donbas for Kursk, ever. Not unless Ukraine just pours their own army into Kursk. In which case Russia would still likely just overrun the entire country and raze Kiev first. They may move some troops from the northern areas in behind the incursion to cutoff the rear. Everyone seems to forget that Russia has an entire army that is restricted from foreign deployment, that is specifically a defensive army. The Kursk incursion is tiny. Its miniscule. When you zoom out the map to show all of Russia's territory, you can't even see it. The thought that this is threatening Russia is absurd. Thats why they're moving so apparently slowly, to address it. They're avoiding a stand up fight, because they don't want to destroy their own towns. So, they've done mass evacuations, destroyed vehicles and are establishing a wide security perimeter to isolate and contain the incursion. There's evidence that they're allowing personnel to escape after destroying their vehicles. They almost certainly have the objective of capturing, not killing the personnel, for multiple reasons. They're high value for intelligence and leverage, because they are Western trained and equipped, clearly operating on US geospatial intelligence. Russia wants them in custody to tell the world at their terrorism trial, that they're agents of NATO, operating on NATO plans with British and US intelligence. Theres also evidence that Ukraine is dragging around prisoners and posing them as 'new' prisoners. They're not sending anyone back to Ukraine and the images always have about the same number of prisoners in them. Either way, Ukraine is now claiming over 2000 prisoners and 1) I sincerely doubt theyve encountered that many Russian soldiers at all and B) thats what, 2 or more prisoners to every Ukrainian soldier that they're apparently trasnsporting around with them on their selfie tour? Thats a LOT of heavy vehicles, just for prisoner transport. Yet, we've seen no such thing. The numbers, all of the numbers, just dont add up to anything but a clout operation for the media, so no one is talking about the daily significant Russian gains everywhere along the entire front. It may take a week, or a month, but this is going to end very badly and embarrassingly for Ukraine. Theres simply no other way 1000 troops invading Russia can end.

  5735. So much wrong, here A) Ukraine will be getting export versions of these tanks, because for the US at least, it requires an act of Congress to export much of the technology in these armor systems, to non-NATO countries. The export version of the M1 is a tin can. British 'CHOBHAM' is highly classified. The 'silver bullet' ammo for the M1 and Bradley, is export restricted and has potential legal implications in a conflict with Russia B) its a 'BIMP', not a 'BUMP' 🤦 C) Russian standard tanks are far more sophisticated and tougher than the export versions Iraq had. About the only thing they have in common is the shape D) head to head tank combat isn't what is killing tanks. Ukraine had the largest armor force in Europe and the second largest in the region, behind Russia. Ukraine's deployed armor force, outnumbered Russia's by almost 5:1 and its gone . 99% of armor kills are by artillery and ATGMs, which will smash any tank. ATGMs were still special purpose weapons, in limited supply, when these tanks were designed. Now, they are far more powerful and ubiquitous. The only significant advantage Western tanks have, is possibly better crew survivability. But, they'll still get destroyed like everything else and then Russia will parade their burned out carcasses through Red Square every day for the next hundred years, in a propaganda victory far more potent than any potential tactical victory these tanks will provide. This is incomprehensibly stupid, for a number of reasons. This is just an escalation for the sake of escalation, because our leaders are imbecilic narcissists who think they'll be immune from any consequences, like they are in everything else.

  6009.  @morganross6399  The salient issue is the unmitigated impact of the virus. When we look at those statistics, we tend to look at it as nominal. However, statistics are meaningless to an individual, because there are many unaccounted factors. When we breakdown the statistics, we see a third of the national deaths, coming from 4 metropolitan cities and half coming from 5 states, out of 50. What we also see is the highest density of severe illness and death coming from jurisdictions that employed the same containment and treatment strategy as Italy. Where we see the lowest numbers, is in the 'Neandethal' regions, that took their own lead, rather than doing what the others did. What Italy and NY did, was lockdown sick people, in small multigenerational dwellings with healthy people; and funnel everyone who had contact with a suspected infection, into 2 designated containment hospitals, positively exposing every one of them. Thus, there was an immediate, unmanageable spike. Then, to compound the problem, they made the wrong treatment choices and everyone died 🤷 The point being that the places that essentially let nature take its course, never had a problem any worse than a severe flu season, which never rates more than a PSA. People will read into this, their own biases and preprogrammed outrage, but the simple fact is that people are not getting vaccinated and resist mask and movement restrictions, because they never did those things before and never had a problem. Conversely they look at the places that did those things and watched it spiral out of control, always with a surge, following the mandates.

  6061. +Aaron Lowe First, not vacating flight crew seats and having a confrontation, which delayed the flight and threatened cancellation of other flights, is definitive interference with flight crew and flight operations - It may surprise you to learn that flight attendants' primary duty, is not to serve drinks and fluff your pillow. Second, Airport security are not 'fake cops' - that is completely asinine. Third, it was Chicago PD that removed him, not UA, not flight attendants, not 'fake cops'. Fourth, he told the officers "Im not going, youll have to drag me"; the officers tried to reason with with him; he said "Id rather go to jail"; the officers asked "Youd rather go to jail, than just get off?"; he answered "Yes" - this is not to mention his threats to aircrew, of a lawsuit, prior to the confrontation. Furthermore, what he did or didnt do in this case, is irrelevant, you wanted a citation to support the assertion that refusal to deplane, on flight crew orders, was Federal crime. I could certainly provide several interlocking codes that cover the full spectrum of ways that refusal to get off the plane is a violation of Federal law, but this one example shouldve been sufficient. I suspect that any answer I give, will simply be giving chase to a moving goalpost. Bottom line, that no one seems to comprehend - aircrew tells you to get off the plane, there is no argument to be made, you are getting off the plane, cooperatively, or forcibly. If a police officer tells you to vacate a private property, there is no argument to be made, you are leaving, cooperatively, or forcibly.

  6104. Philip MorrisThat simply isnt true. This is Youtube, Sir and you may find all these experiments. Strangely enough, what you cant find is any of these alleged expert shooters failing and claiming it impossible. Well, except for Ventura, who everyone whos picked up a rifle before laughed at furiously. He should have his tattoo repossessed for that ridiculously shameful display of intentional incompetence. As for 'nerves and adrenaline', you do understand of course thats what TRAINING is all about? He likely wasnt even consciously thinking about shooting a man, once his eye went to the iron. Thats how it works. Training replaces natural reflexes with conditioned ones. You say this as someone who probably has fired fewer than a hundred rounds in your life. Shooting a man is something he was drilled and practiced thousands of times for, as a Marine. Funny how you guys can completely neglect that in the JFK case and yet at every other turn talk about snipers and soldiers being 'brainwashed/programmed killing machines' without a single thought in their heads but 'KILL'. Women, children, no matter... just kill. So why would Oswald have been any different? And far a reproducing exact shot placement? Thats just a ridiculous expectation and totally fallacious. To start with, it necessitates the assumption that Oswald put every round precisely where he wanted it. And that to 'prove' he could have shot a moving target at that range, others have to perfectly reproduce shot placement and timing. Thats just intellectually dishonest.

  6113. +Tierce Terrell Perhaps, if you are going to presume such political expertise, you should study and come to an understanding of how and why the US electoral system works, the way it does? For your education, I recomend a by county breakdown, of the electorate. You should also, being so informed, be aware that there was not one only Electoral College election for President, but thousands of popular elections, as well; and Democrats overwhelmingly, were shown the door, at every level of government, from the very top, down to municipal sanitation boards. 'Everyone' didnt lose; identity politics, thought policing and advocates thereof, lost. The electorate opted for a manageble choice, which didnt empower a fascist base of racial/sexual/social/ideological bigots and can actually be removed, if necessary. As for Sanders, your remarks serve to demonstrate that you are just as out of touch with reality, as the Democrat Party, which just received resounding rebuke. Sanders, at best, has no courage, or integrity. The more likely, however, is that Sanders was a stooge, from the beginning. A man who propagandized, that his opponent rigged the election against him, to cheat his supporters out of their democracy, then actively campaigns, in favor of said cheat and emplores his supporters that it is morally imperative to cast their vote, for his usurper. The only place Sanders ever had traction, was in closed DNC caucus, where the Party strictly controls attendance and the vote; If you didnt see the establishment's hand up his backside already, at that point, no one can help you. Sanders was a shill, cast to play his Marxist pipe and lead all the Millennials to the polls... to cast their vote for the establishment. Perhaps, next time theyll actually drown themselves...

  6170. +stephen Toth My point is that the only significant difference between an AR and an M16, is the giggle switch. The auto/burst functionality is not what makes the M16 a combat effective weapon. I can count on one hand, every time I used anything but semiauto, anywhere but the range. The point about its designed lethality, is that everyone is trying to make the argument that all of the AR's signature features, are cosmetic and that its no different than any other rifle. If that were true, the Marines would use the Mini-14 and people wouldnt be crapping themselves and barking about revolution, over not being able to get an AR. The AR is a high performance battle rifle and Dod, has in fact, explored the option of semiauto only variants, for general issue. The ONLY reason they dont, is logistics and cost - the semiauto cost the same as the auto and on the occasion that autofire is needed, they would need to get that capability issued to the field. Theyve also explored electronic selectors, so that an officer could authenticate autofire, when needed. The point is that trying to minimalize the AR as simply 'scary looking' is no less deceitful than that other side's demonization for its ease of use. But considering that gun rights only ever shrink and never grow, Id be very wary of tactics that might blow up in my face. You simply cant win the 'its just a rifle' argument, but the argument that self-defense and exercise of a fundamental Constitutional Right, should be difficult, expensive and hard to access, for the average American, is winnable.

  6645. I did ISR/RSTA for 10 years in the Army. The most likely reason for a reduction in FAB(GBU) and cruise missile use is the one that everyone tends to overlook, just as they did when initial air operations slacked way off at the beginning of OIF. There simply aren't any targets. At some point you're only bouncing rubble. The enemy can and does get accustomed to it. Impact on morale is a force multiplier that is lost with overuse of even a very effective weapon. As for the Iskander, the reason they are so effective is near zero absentee and low latency. That is, the range of the weapon makes one available within the engagement envelope at any given time and the speed of the weapon itself, makes it effective against highly mobile targets like temporary encampments, materiel convoys, ADS and MLRS systems. It can be tasked at the tactical level, it has a short launch cycle of a few minutes and can reach a target in under 5 minutes. In comparison it can take an hour or more to program and load a munition onto a plane, let alone deliver it. GBU and cruise missiles need a fixed target that is high enough value to task and or, risk deployment platforms, with a high confidence of still being there when the weapon arrives up to several hours after designation and tasking. Ukraine has frustrated these factors by simply diffusing targets, necessitating multiple weapons to achieve a nominal effect and thus substantially reducing its value; where a target may be well worth the expenditure of a Kalibr, its not worth the expenditure of 10. Even the Lancet has become somewhat obsolete, because while cheap and tactical, it has lost effectiveness against its targets of choice through improved asset protection and is simply too expensive to use on the targets its resorting to. The long range drone munitions, ie 'Geran/Shahed' are almost exclusively limited to fixed infrastructure, due to their very low speed and limited yield. All that said, I would expect to see a major increase in Iskander production/deployment and likely development of a cheaper, more tactical variant bridging the gap between Iskander and Tornado-S(HIMARS/ATACMS)

  6757. +András Bíró The Port Arthur incident is an outlier. That means that not only has nothing like it happened since, but nothing like it happened before, either. The fact is that more people have died in massacres in the 20 years since, than did in the 20 yeas prior - the new method of choice, being arson. It is also not the highest casualty massacre in Australian history, by a longshot, not even in the 20th Century - please tell me that 20th Century massacres of Aboriginals are not being excluded for some inexplicable reason. Your assessment of 'big guns' and the use of an AR rifle belies a lack of knowledge and experience with any firearms. Furthermore, the AR is not designed to 'kill lots of people quickly', it is designed to shoot accurately at 300m and reduce the weight of ammunition for a fielded soldier - please do actually research the development and adoption of this weapon, if youre going to comment on its design and 'purpose'. This is the 'worst massacre in Texas history'... by 3 victims. The second worse was when George Hennard drove his truck into a Lubys and murdered 23 people and wounded 27 more(including a shootout with police) with a 9mm pistol and full metal jacket ammunition. That specific incident is the reason storefronts all have large concrete ballards in front of them and Texas has concealed carry. He executed defenseless victims at close range, just like this guy did, just like the Sandyhook shooter did, just like the Charleston church shooter did, just like the Columbine shooters did, just like practically all of these people do. In virtually every one of these murder rampages, the weapon was irrelevant, as the victims were cornered, close together and defenseless. The nature of the act itself, dictates the dynamics - its personal, they want to immersively experience the killing. The Vegas shooting was an unusual event and we still dont have any clues about the motives - and ironically, had he simply used the rifle like a semiautomatic rifle, the casualties wouldve likely been much higher, because the bumpstock was uncontrollable and nearly a third of his rounds completely missed a crowd of 20,000 people.

  7030. Most of the 'misinformation' is from official and or sanctioned sources. The main issue is treating everyone like toddlers and 'lying to tell the the truth'; like the Fauci mask debacle. No one seems to understand what a vaccine is supposed to do, the fundamentals of how a vaccine works, the fundamentals of how testing works, etc. In fact, the mass majority of 'asympomatic', 'false positives' and 'vaccinated positives' are probably echoes of eradicated nascent infection. The test is so sensitive, it can detect the unincorporated live virus, in your nose before it infects you. Because the 'test' is merely a mask, or filter, for a typical PCR assay, it doesn't detect the virus directly, but rather the virus's individual components. Therefore the dead virus is still detectable for days or even weeks. This is important to understanding 'vaccinated positives', as you have to actually be infected, for the vaccine antibodies to fight it off before it amplifies and causes illness. All vaccines work this way. A 'breakthrough' infection is not a positive test result, it is illness in a vaccinated subject. At this point, 'vaccinated positive' results are high, while legit 'breakthrough' is on par with most common vaccines. Test sensitivity and test frequency/schedule, are why so many people are testing neg-pos-neg in a week and why some people test asymptomatic positive for over a month; they aren't actively infected, they just tested after exposure, while there was still neutralized virus in their system.

  7199. 🤦🏽‍♀️ So much to go through, here... No, Ukraine is not advancing in Kursk. Russia has established a containment zone and evacuated it. Ukraine is running back and forth shooting up ghost towns for p r o p a g a n d a videos until they run into Russian army and then they take heavy losses. Theyve already lost massive amounts of equipment and vehicles and taken heavy casualties, with no egress. The idea that Russia is going to have to pull troops off the front to go to Kursk, instead of just sending some of their newly trained troops currently waiting for deployment, is absurd. Russia is advancing kilometers per day, breaking Ukrainian line after line, collapsing Ukrainian strongholds and taking dozens to hundreds of Ukrainian prisoners, along the entire front every day . Kursk is literally a speck on the map. The very best negotiating position Ukraine could ever achieve with it, is return of an equal area, distributed along the Eastern front. In other words, Russia might agree to move their new border a few feet. The reality is Kursk is a clicks and clout operation that has compromised the front line, where Ukraine has practically abandoned underequipped, undertrained conscripts to send their best equipment and most experienced soldiers on a PR mission. The whole, full and entire point of the Kursk operation is to give you people something besides the Eastern front to talk about. Russia has no problem getting support. Ukraine does that well enough by sending drones indiscriminately into downtown Moscow to "bring the war to the Russian people" - V Zelensky. They already have half a . million volunteers in Ukraine and are currently training around 350, 000 volunteers for the winter cycle. Russia already has conscription. Virtually the entire population is required to serve. Russian law forbids foreign deployment of conscripts. Thats why they haven't sent 2 million 'draftees' into Ukraine. Its not because Putin needs an excuse. Seriously, its like everything you know about Russia comes from 70s spy movies.

  7659. +Hal Bleavy No, Im pretty sure that wasnt the point. But lets forget what you actually said and pretend it was(the irony is mindnumbing)... The President isnt Daddy to dictate morality and ideals, he is a representative of the People and the People elected him, in large part, to 'curb the demographic change' of THEIR own country. Americans have had enough of being replaced by foreigners who dont want to become Americans, but rather expect America to change, to conform to their origin cultures, while exploiting its Western benefits. Contrary to what some appear to believe, no one has a Right to come to America, anymore than they have a Right to enter any other country. But youre still completely wrong, because you have to selectively interpret, insinuate, strawman and outright put words in his mouth, to come to your conclusion. Its like these 'dog whistles' you people always call out - how is it you hear it, but the 'bigots' dont? Good question, right? Bottom line, when you have to explain what someone didnt say, youre probably projecting... or just rhetorically lying. BTW, Ive personally seen some of the places in question and they are literal shitholes, created and maintained by the people who live there. Ask yourself what youd do if your gvt collapsed? If the gvt didnt pick up your garbage, would you just toss it in the street in front of your house, or dump your shitbucket out your bedroom window? Or... would you take responsibility for maintaining your own community with dignity, the way many peoples have done for thousands of years before city services?

  8358. Well, while you're chasing conspiracy theories about Weiner's laptop, youre more right than you know about the '180'. The Left has Goldfish Syndrome; they cant see beyond the immediate present, in any direction. All they see is RIGHT NOW, they are GETTING TRUMP!!! They dont comprehend tge old idiom whats good fir the goose is good for the gander. They think that once theyve gotten what they want out of it, all of this will go away and never come back. They dont have any clue, that theyre setting a new paradigm of political strategy that will be used against THEM at first opportunity. The sickening irony is that they dont even have the self-awareness that this is why theyre so mouth-foaming insane over Trump, in the first place. When the Obama admin was doing WTF ever it wanted with its 'phone and pen' and systematically dismantling the checks and balances and separation of powers, to facilitate his 'phone and pen', the collective Left cheered in an endless victory lap for all the stuff they were getting. Meanwhile there wee those of we telling them to tread carefully, because your guy isnt going to be there forever and eventually someone you dont like, will get all of that power he consolidated into the Oval Office. Well, that was just stupid, because Republicans had all died off like the dinosaurs and no Republican would ever be elected again... never EVER. Their Reich would reign for 1000 years. Then Trump happened and they all lost their fucking minds about his slipping into all that power and authority. If they hadnt turned the President into a dictator, there wouldnt have been anything to worry about; just bite your lip and vote him out. But it wasnt until that happened, that it dawned on them, what they had done. Same thing here, this WILL come back around and theyre too stupid to see it, because thats tomorrow, this is today.

  8361. 'JS'? I dont know who youre talking about, please elaborate? Yeah, Im not the one yelling 'Stormy Daniels for President!!!' I think Trump and GWB are about the only two since Reagan, who didnt think it would be all power and no work. The reason President Obama made it look easy, is because he delegated everything to disposable people who were willing to fall on their sword for him. He didnt have to fire anyone, because when something went wrong, a subordinate took the blame and the press covered for him with non-coverage and or playing the race card - you cant blame the first black President... thats RACIST! The issue with the media and Trump, is less about the (((Liberal Agenda))) than about a personal vendetta, because he made fools out of them. They think they can 'correct' reality and be retroactively right, because they live in a subjective bubble, where THEY shape reality. Take for example, Chris Cuomo, telling people they were committing a felony by seeing the leaked DNC emails; that it was HIS job to read them for you and tell you what you need to know. And Mika Brzezinski, on live frichen tv, complaining that Trump's speaking directly to the public allowed HIM to control what people think "...and thats OUR job". Seriously, when the media says right to your face that its their job to examine information for you and tell you what you need to know and that its their job to control what you think, how can you take ANYTHING they say, seriously. Well, unless you dont care about veracity and just want to hear what you want to hear? Which is something several CNN producers and reporters have admitted to. Heres a good rule of thumb, the more boring and dull news is, the more truthful and accurate it is. Think about that the next time you click on a headline that excites you.

  8819.  @drew123saulpaul  The cost of American healthcare it multi-fold. First, its expensive, because there is a treatment for everything regardless of necessity; the cost of R&D is diffused throughout the makers entire product line. You pay more for everything else, so you can afford what you need. The irony is mind-blowing. Second, insurance companies diffuse the cost, among all of their clients, so that they can pay for hard-on pills and penis pumps as 'medical necessities'. This also drives up the costs, the same way grants and rubber stamp student loans, have driven tuition costs through the roof. Third, politicians enable this insurance inflation. Fourth, this is America, you cannot centrally govern wages. Fifth, hospital bills diffuse the cost of all the uninsured and unpaid care they provide, among the paying patients. Again, the profound irony. This is a broadstroke of a handful of the many intricate factors. The bottom line being that American healthcare costs what it does, because the only limit on what and how much you get, is your ability to get the bill paid anyone who will pay it. In America, they will pull all the stops and spare no expense, to get a terminally ill homeless 80 year old, through to the next shift. Everyone pays into that, when they pay a medical bill. Putting the gvt in charge of that, will only reduce the efficiency and quality, as you have to pay people who hate their job and cant get fired, to pay each other, to pay each other to, to pay someone to do the same job that motivated professionals were already doing - see medicare billing scams.

  9605. Imagine the surprise that CIA asset Cooper is doing this segment... 'Effective', because their terrorist suicide mission gives you something to talk about, besides how Ukraine just gloriously sent 10s of 1000s of its greatest heros to get buried by a stupid, untrained, demoralized hotdog vendor's shovel, am I right? The lessons no one has the self-awareness to learn... 1) Propaganda. If you, General Righteous Strike, General Full Semiautomatic, here and your trollfarm of 'expert military analysts' hadn't spent the last 8 months disrespecting, disparaging and dismissing Wagner as stupid, demoralized and always losing at all things, all the time, ever, you wouldn't be making abject fools of yourselves trying to deny, avoid and rationalize the Ukrainian army's losing Bakhmut to them. That defeat, by inference, just makes the Ukrainians completely useless trash to sweep under the rug and forget, just as you're trying to do right here. Getting destroyed by a caterer is so humiliating and so impossible to bear, its actually giving you brain damage. Its called 'conversion hysteria'. Prigozhin honored his vanquished enemy, with respect and dignity for fallen soldiers, doing their duty. That made him appear strong. You dishonor Ukraine's fallen and devalue their lives and sacrifice, by pasting them with all the 5h17 you've flung like angry monkeys for the better part of a year. We actual analysts call that 'blowback'. 2) These new great heros of the Republic you want to come over and pump your wives and teenage daughters, because they hate the same people we're instructed to hate, are genuine, bona fide, real deal self-identified (((neonazis))) conducting definitional acts of terrorism. Remember those murdering, raping, cannibalizing butchers in Syria you swooned so slow, deep and hard over, because they hated the same people we're instructed to hate? Try to learn and DO YOUR JOB

  9676.  @bravocarlos1752  Putin doesn't need to buy time for anything. You people are so devastatingly propagandized and utterly brainwashed, you actually think the Ukraine is valiantly standing up to Russia. Russia has committed about 5% of its staged forces. Let that sink in. Their strikes have been extremely limited and narrowly focused, in a monumental display of discipline and restraint. 95% of what you're hearing is propaganda and about half of that is outright lies. 9/10 of the destroyed vehicles you're all cheering about are Ukrainian - tip: Russian vehicles are marked with a white Z or chevron as IFF. Ukraine is openly committing wanton warcrimes and everyone is cheering it as 'brave' - tip: prisoner confession videos and reading KIA letters to their mom, is strictly prohibited as abuses of dignity. Armed groups hunting 'traitors' and 'spies' are better known as death squads and are war criminals - how many innocent civilians have been murdered for having the wrong accent, or opinion, or name? Yet MSM cheer their stunning bravery. The videos of those brave men stepping up to volunteer are conscripts caught trying to flee the country with their families, branded cowards and traitors and sent in civilian clothing and practically unarmed, to face Russian soldiers. How many Ukrainian civilians are going to get turned into pink smoke, trying to be like the badass grandma that killed a Russian tank with a molotov cocktail? The Ukrainian gvt is actively trying to create a civilian massacre, for propaganda to drag the West into it. People need to (((STFU))) and stay out of things they clearly don't understand and stop making it worse

  9797. Get in a lot of gunfights, do you? Its a stressful situation and the Taser weapon is designed specifically to handle like a firearm, to streamline training and be intuitive. You can hear her yelling Taser! so unless you're going to make the absurd argument that she knew and was just providing cover for a wanton murder, you have to believe she thought it was a Taser. Yes, officers mistake their pistol for a Taser, frequently. When these things first came out, a lot of us in the training industry saw this coming. When your adrenaline spikes, you lose sensation in your hands and get 'tunnel vision'. She wouldn't have been able to differentiate the Taser from her pistol, simply by touch and she likey didn't even see it in her peripheral vision. This is not her fault, its the fault of whomever approved the Taser for issue and whomever approved the usage policy. The Taser is a 'less lethal' weapon, not 'non-lethal'. If you can't shoot, you shouldn't be able to tase, either. lf she was in-policy to use a Taser, then this was a total accident and criminal charges are outrageous. If she was not in-policy to use a Taser, then there is a crime and she should face the consequences. She probably shouldn't be a patrol officer, but charging her for a department created accident, is a political stunt and an abuse by people who have probably never been in a more threatening situation, than being called names. I am a combat veteran, trained to fight and kill and Ive seen plenty of people handle their first time, way worse than she did.

  9978.  @pedroj3432  Do you know what it takes to 'pass' a polygraph? Not being afraid of it. It doesn't detect truthfulness, it detects anxiety and its entirely up to the administrator to interpret what that anxiety means. One of the things they look fir, is heightened anxiety about one question relative to low anxiety about the same question asked or worded differently; and anxiety about verbatim repeat of the same question at different points during the examination. These are hallmarks of 'keeping the story straight' and fear that 'they caught me'. Tip: if you are being asked direct questions, from your own words, its not a real polygraph; If every single question isn't designed to trick you and make think about your answer 15 questions ago, its not a real polygraph; If you don't come out of it thinking you got caught in a lie you didn't even realize you were telling, it wasn't a real polygraph. I know, because Ive been 'boxed' several times for security clearance and counterintel audits; Ive never answered fewer than 40 uniques and 110 total questions per round. I've done it twice in a day and I've done it two or more days in a row. The countermeasures to a poly, have been well established and thoroughly demonstrated. Its also been demonstrated that compulsive liars and psychopaths are immune to the poly. A poly by itself is meaningless and is usually employed as an inclusion, to catch someone lying, not to prove they're telling the truth. EDIT: Addendum - that is to say, a poly will never prove truthfulness, it can only prove they didn't catch you lying.

  10253. 'What hate looks like in America' - it looks like an automobile accident and rioters attacking with bats? Which group was it that went in with 'bad' intent, Cenk??? You didnt properly name them. Lets see if we can figure it out? Was it the group that planned and got properly permitted and attempted to carry out a peaceful, lawful demonstration? Was that the group, Cenk? Or was it the group that showed up unlawfully, dressed in black, wearing masks, illegally armed and throwing rocks, bottles, piss baloons, attacking with clubs, sticks, bats, 'flame throwers', bear spray, etc? It wasnt that group, was it, Cenk? Oh, Cenk, dont bother to wait for facts and evidence. Never will learn. Unfortunately your wet dream 'alt-right terrorist attack', in just a few days, when the investigation is complete, is going to turn out to be a Leftwing fascist terrorist attack, gone very wrong. Its painfully ironic, that in the image YOU used, is the proof that you were wrong. Note the brake lights, smoke from the front tires, lowered front end and raised rear end, as the car encounters the crowd, Cenk. That means he was braking... HARD. Not exactly evidence of intent, huh? Notice, also Cenk, that he struck a vehicle, not people, Cenk, but another car stopped in the street by the rioters and THAT vehicle struck people. Again, not exactly evidence of intent to run over people. And, though its not yet confirmed, it very strongly appears, that the woman that was killed, had jumped on the back of his car, smashing a bat through the windshield and got thrown from the car and run over, as he reversed to escape the armed mob attacking his car. How might it change the narrative, if the innocent victim got run over, because she got her bat stuck in the windshield? The authorities who jumoed the gun and filed charges based upon ANTIFA 'witness' statements, have put the DA in a very awkward position. They were so adamant to 'get the racist' that they made official statements and filed charges, before the scene had been fully processed and the inevitible video and photographic evidence surfaced. Hands up, Dont shoot! Facts, Cenk. Facts and due diligence. Theres no substitute.

  10293. Russia is about to go full semiautomatic, General. I don't know why I expected anything but propaganda from CNN 🤦 What this means, if you understand anything about Russian order of battle, is very clearly understandable. Russia uses Generals as specialists for phase oriented warfare. They just used a guy thats an air war expert to wreck Ukraine's strategic infrastructure and heavily tax their logistics, with relentless deep airstrikes. Now, they're putting in a highly experienced and decorated armor and maneuver expert. What does it mean? It means a new land warfare phase is about to begin. Russia has pulled thousands of Ukrainian troops from Donetsk and Kharkiv regions, into Bakhmut, softening the Ukrainian lines in Donetsk, as evidenced by recent Russian probing operations in the area. Over the past couple months, Russia has been trickling large numbers of armor units into the Donetsk AO, with no apparent commitment to any fighting; so, they're just kinda there, hanging out scattered around the region. CNN would have you believe 2+2=5, but the math is really not that complicated. Bakhmut has become a fixing operation, leaving Ukraine's northern and southern lines vulnerable; up until now, Russia's primary objective has been shooting up the Ukrainian army, not holding territory. So, as Bakhmut starts coming under control, Russia is likely going to make a minor move in Kharkiv to try and draw more Ukrainian forces away and make a major advance at Donetsk and spearhead to Kramatorsk from Bakhmut's rear lines, where Russian regular and special forces have massed. Ukraine has badly overcommitted at Bakhmut and depleted their deep defenses in the central and southern regions. When Bakhmut collapses, their defenses will be either too depleted, or too disorganized to stop Russian advances at Donetsk and into Kramatorsk.

  10373. @Manuela Costa Lima Farmers are growing surpluses of produce that doesnt export, because of logistical constraints. I grew up on a farm, some of this stuff is harvested, sits in trucks for days waiting to be processed, sits in distribution centers for days waiting for shipping orders and then travels cross country, to repeat the process on its way to the shelf. Rain on the wrong day, can make a crop inaccessible for harvest, ruining large portions of it for said distribution; that produce, which is still fine for local distribution, has no local market. Until we have transporter technology, primary distribution is always going to be the broken link in the supply chain. There is no 'thriving middle class' because upward mobility is driving it into the lower upper class; Id bet you know at least one millionaire or damned close to one. The overwhelming majority of those at the lower end of the economic spectrum, are people with no ambition, or with chronically poor judgement. Thats an inconvenient fact that the radical Left exploits with envy, contempt and promise of freebies. Democrat Legislators just got rauchously booed at their own event, for saying 'Socialism is not the answer', to beating Trump. Really think that over and what its implications to the upward mobility that defines the American Dream. Myself, I think some creative management and business sector incentives, could establish a basic nutrition program, like WIC, for everyone, making use of agricultural surplus and military assets for primary distribution; we used to drive laps around base all day long and drive roadtrips back and forth between other bases, for no other reason whatsoever, than to use up old fuel and be 'busy'. We had to intentionally wear out vehicles to keep the spare parts pipeline flowing. Im talking about reallocation of controlled assets, not redistribution of wealth, via taxation. To be clear, Im in favor of that, because its relatively cheap, simply giving purpose to what is otherwise waste; but, mainly because there is no option to opt-out of the 'system'; nowhere left to go, that government doesnt dictate the fundamental elements of life. When on your own property, in places with zero gvt services or immediate protections, you are required to be licensed and subjected to limits on hunting/fishing and you can be told what you may and may not grow, then the gvt does have a responsibility to provide a minimum of guaranteed, unqualified life support - authority = obligation. The reverse is equally true - responsibility/obligation = authority. Remember that every responsibility you assign to gvt, is a choice you no longer have. The gvt gives you free healthcare, its going to dictate lifestyle choices. It gives you free money, it will dictate what you can buy. Anyone who thinks thats not how it should be, is just greedy and self-entitled.

  10374.  @Lordhumongus  Actually, it goes back to Clinton, who did with the economy, exactly what Enron did. Among the various economic malfeasance, was the boom of gvt 'jobs', aka ficticious jobs. Ficticious, because they didnt produce anything, rather existed for their own sake; the gvt paying people to pay other people to pay them. When a substantial portion of the workforce is in an occupation that pays them to pay themselves out of their own taxes, WTF do you epect to happen??? Furthermore the real estate crash and subsequent need to bailout banks, is squarely upon Clinton era policies that coerced banks into making hundreds of billions of dollars in loans, that they knew would not be paid back. Remember the 90s 'house flipping' craze? Theres thousands of those properties still sitting unoccupied, in suspended animation, in the midst of half-assed renovation, because the banks foreclosed and couldnt unload them. Far as GWB goes, you have to cut him some slack, 9/11 thrashed every economy in the world; he never stood a chance at having a successful domestic policy. I could cut Obama some of that slack, except that even though it made more work for me as a security contractor, given the opportunity to withdraw from war, he exponentially expanded it; and his domestic policy was to incite a race war. Trump is the first President we've had since the turn of the century, with a real, unqualified opportunity to reset the economy and domestic policy and from the outset Democrats, in their own words, have declared him "illegitimate", vowed openly to "obstruct", "destroy", "ruin" him, even refusing him the basic Human dignity of his name, let alone the minimum respect due the Office, in adolescent, oppositional defiant, abject contempt, over losing an election. This is largely a result of their own self-inflicted humiliation for taking a fist-pumping, self-congratulatory victory lap, before the election; but, also because in a functional society, Democrats are redundant. Democrats didnt lose because of (((RUSSIA!!!))) , they lost because their message was that of an abusive relationship - You have to be with me, because no one else wants you.

  10400. Iraq was invaded because Iraq NEVER abided the cease fire stipulations that saved it from invasion the first time. Iraq was invaded, because the Iraqi government was STILL developing/stockpiling banned weapons and had a military that it was about to lose control of, to extremist rebels. I was actually THERE... TWICE. The first time, I watched a Marine bawling like a little bitch, punching his hands bloody on the side of a tank, while Iraqi soldiers were executing civilians in the streets a little over a mile away. We were forbidden to intervene. This time, we recovered enough Mustard and Sarin to satisfy the burden of justification. This time there were more than a dozen gas attacks over 5 years, using Sarin artillery shells as IEDs. But because they didnt know how to use gas effectively, there were only a handful of minor injuries. Ironically, you listened to CNN too much. There was never any direct threat to America from 'massive stockpiles of WMD', or 'UBL ties' with Saddam. Those were broad strokes of legitimate issues that you were too dull to comprehend, without CNN dumbing it down for you. The ONLY thing that wasnt found, was the mobile anthrax labs. Thats it. Everything else was found, in sufficient quantity to have murdered millions of people... including direct evidence that Uday was interested in arming Afghan insurgents with CW. It was also speculated that large quantities were smuggled to Syria, prior to invasion. Fast forward to the first gas attack in Syria, which turned out to be a weapon from the Iraqi arsenal. But first and foremost, Saddam had been suppressing a rebellion since we left the first time, that rebellion had been infiltrated by extremists from Afghanistan and Iran and was about to gain control of large amounts of his physical military. Which they eventually did, when we left, again.

  10558. Lets all be honest here and accept that 'Tump's base' won't care what he may have done, because the Democrat shenanigans that got him elected to begin with, have only gotten more asinine and fundamentally offensive to America. DNC is already hard at work, hand in hand with their media outlets, to rig their primary, again. They've painted themselves into a corner with poison, by devoting so much of their effort to courting radicals who were already going to vote Democrat, or will simply never vote no matter what they do. They cant win without the radicals, but just the radicals are not enough to win and they will turn on them, if they say anything or speak to anyone, who isn't a mouth frothing, rabid social justice fanatic. So, here we go again, with Democrats right on track to hand pick the most narrowly appealing, most hardline radical candidate they can find, to try and force upon America with charges of hateful bigotry, if you even consider not voting for them. Ive voted Democrat and Republican more times than most people have voted. I have not partisan inclinations; my identity is Voter. But, as the party stands, I cannot vote for a Democrat, no matter how much I may like an individual candidate, because they will either do the DNC's bidding, or they'll be neutralized. A vote for a Democrat is not a vote for a candidate, but a vote for a DNC cabal, sitting behind closed doors pulling the strings. The absolute best thing for the Democrats and Liberalism, at this point, is for them to get blown out for a generation, or two, or as long as it takes to purge the neo-Progressive disease.

  10734. +NyQuin Actually, there is a weak justification, but justification nonetheless, for mandating an age of 21 to purchase any gun with a pistol grip. My state did so, for a short time after the ban lifted. It was eventually lowered back to 18. The reason being the justification for being 21 to purchase a pistol, has nothing to do with crime prevention, but personal safety, as a pistol is much more dangerous to handle, than a rifle. The kneejerk reaction of raising the age to buy a gun, to retroactively exclude a criminal, is absurd and has no logical or moral basis and will have exactly zero impact on such acts. Most 'school shooters' have been too young to purchase the guns they used and the overwhelming majority of the the remainder of rampage shooters, have been 21 or older. Raising the age to purchase a gun is an empty gesture that burdens the law abiding and is in fact unconstitutional and will be struck down. The reason its unconstitutional, is because the free exercise of Rights, is tied to Age of Suffrage; in the US, that is 18. This is no different from mandating that you be 21 to vote... which Im sure many will agree is a very good idea. The reason some states are able to raise the age for pistol purchase to 21, is because one may purchase a variety of long guns at 18. Raising the age for ALL purchases to 21, completely eliminates the exercise of an enumerated Right, for Suffrage aged adults, who are legally responsible for themselves and all their actions - with Rights comes responsibility and likewise, with responsibilities, come Rights.

  11717. +gary duarte Too low skilled to run a shovel? Too low intellectual capacity to collect garbage? Because either one of those jobs pays a living wage and theyre always looking for people - Ive dug my share of ditches. There are plenty of programs for people who just dont have the brains to hold a job; and should those people be raising families, anyway? I am skilled. I went to school and worked full time, to acquire my skills. Entry level, for my skillset, is around $15 -$18. I have experience, so I make substantially more, but that is what I would start at, today. I take offense to the notion that someone thinks they rate the same pay, for bussing tables. If you raise minimum wage to within a dollar, or two of my schooled/skilled wage, then I should get a comparable pay raise, to reflect my intellectual and effort investment, in my skillset... not to mention my worth to my employer. So lets just raise everyone's wages... BRILLIANT! Considering that a third of jobs, particularly in service and retail are minimum wage positions, how do you suppose a wage hike will reflect prices? Unless prices are frozen, which is a whole other matter with a whole other set of unpleasant issues, a minimum wage hike will have a net real effect of zero. Thats the best case. The reality is that prices will rise, minimum wagers will gain nothing but higher taxes and skilled workers will have less buying power, with their stagnant wages. Of course thats what the Socialist elitists disseminating this propaganda are shooting for - elevate no one and bring down the bourgeoisie.

  11727. +MrMongoose221 Right. I wasnt neccessarily charging you with openly asserting superiority, but as you yourself noted, it came off as though you were criticizing American gun laws. Hiwever, I was making a blanmet statement, in regards to those such as 'Gary', who in fact do openly assert moral and cultural superiority and do try to tell Americans how to govern themselves - there is to this day, a deep objection to Europeans, particlarly English, telling Americans how to govern their own country, you Know? As for the first section, it stands. 'gun crime' is a strawman, as is the arbitrary distinction of 'advanced nations', that is often bandied about as a deceitful qualifier. Of course availability of guns increases gun crime, however availability of guns does NOT increase violent crime, nor does unavailability of guns decrease violent crime; to the contrary, according to most worldwide statistics. Furthermore, as an experienced, professional gunhandler, Ill tell you frankly, that I am deathly afraid of blades, but not so much guns, because a gun can only hurt you, from one discrete angle... unlike blades. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of gunshots are administered at close contact, against a suplicant victim. The circumstances of such acts, makes the choice of weapon redundant. Ill also add that ~85% of gunshot victims make full recovery, with no lasting physical effects, while poisoning, immolation and particularly beatings, commonly leave the victims with chronic, dibilitating injury.

  12167.  @billtierney2201  No one did. I worked as an intelligence analyst, in the 90s and my assessment is that 95%+ of what the 'intelligence community' has told us about this, is 100% fabricated. Intel reports are expressed in degrees of 'confidence'; never as 'what we know', or in 'certainty'. This is a no-brainer, when you consider that identifying a black and blue tracksuit, as white and gold, could potentially lead to the end of Humanity. As well, no assessment is reported, without a minimum of one, preferably two, equally plausible alternate assessments, based on the same intel, for that reason. During the Benghazi ordeal, CIA, NSA and FBI all told us it would be impossible to trace and positively identify the origin of a state sponsored hack, from a sophisticated adversary, "like Russia, or China." Next, we are being told with absolute certainty that Putin himself, is behind the 'DNC hack', because Cyrillic characters were found in a malware on one DoE computer and an (alleged) intrusion attempt , on DNC computers, originated from a Russian timezone. Now, just for argument, assume thats true and imagine blaming UK gvt, every time a European net ninja hacks into a computer. The DNC emails, by all available evidence, were leaked, not hacked. Had it been a hack, they would've denied authenticity of the data. They did not; rather, going on a mole hunt. They were afraid of a trap, with even more damaging leaks, in face of a denial. Is it plausible that Russia coopted a DNC employee, to steal the data? Absolutely. But, that's not what is alleged.

  12205. Ukraine has received compressed technical training on medium intelligence systems. The bullet catchers have gotten 2 - 4 weeks of what amounts to confidence conditioning - training to fire their weapon and reload while advancing on a static range . For contrast, two weeks in the Army, I was still concentrating on wiping correctly. Basic is not combat training, its lifestyle training. Its the 'brainwashing' phase where you learn how to be in the Army. It was a year, before I felt like I could competently do my job with someone looking over my shoulder 24/7. That said, the overarching problem is everyone has swallowed the Glorious Ukrainian Godman propaganda, hook, line and sinker. Ukraine is literally a 3rd World country of vicious, bloodlusting savages. No one wants to hear it, but everything you think of Russians is equally or more true of Ukrainians. From the outset, they've been more interested in killing their neighbors than repelling an invasion. Only to a savage, is massacring the enemy and defending your home, the same thing. This is why no matter how sophisticated the weaponry we give them, they use it like like a club. They have one of the most sophisticated cruise missiles on the market and throw it like a monkey flinging feces. We gave them top of the line armor and training and they got so giddy to mow down some helpless 'orcs' with their invincible NATO tanks, that they Leroy Jenkins them right into minefields. They have access to the best near-time GEOINT and tactical intelligence in history and they use it to chase propaganda victories and attack civilian targets. Nothing we give them will turn the tide, because they have the impulse control of a 13 year old with a credit card. Both things can be true, Putin can be a massive pulsating tool and Ukraine can deserve every inch.

  12592. +PowerTuber 3.0 The neuron difference between the highest and lowest number you posted, is ~0.1%, placing it in the realm of statistical irrelevancy. Neurons are formed by activity, just like muscles. Every time you have a unique experience, or perform the same task, in a different way, you form new neural pathways and stimulate neuron formation. The greatest impact on cognitive neuron formation, in a population, is native language - the more complex a language and the more it engages other parts of the brain, the more pathways are mapped by its use. Also, the term 'average' is completely inadequate and skews perception. In population statistics, we use ordinals, not averages, because they reflect what is 'normal', where the largest sample falls, not the difference between the lowest and highest samples. There is no such thing as an 'IQ test'. There are batteries of tests that measure different attributes and the relationship of those individual scores to each other, is how IQ is derived. For example, someone who is a math savant, with no mechanical reasoning or spatial relationship skills, will score lower than someone who scores the average, across the board. We see this with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Therefore, methodology is paramount to validating population groups' 'IQ' scores. Sub Saharan 'average IQ' might be 70, but on what scale? Who performed the testing and was the compiled battery matched to the population? Would an Asian accountant fare very well, where they have to determine if something is tasty, or poison, by pure rationale? Could they properly gauge the risks? Would they know the difference between the wind and a predator? These skills are predicated on high level reasoning and not simply by experience. You cannot give population groups in fundamentally different environments the same test and directly compare results - someone with no use for calculus, is not 'dumber' than someone who knows it because they have to. Furthermore, 'IQ' is a nominal measure. A score is only relevant, within its nominal group and the scale is skewed to place 100 as the 75th percentile - 75% of a group has an IQ of 100, be the group a gaggle of Anglo-Saxon astrophysicists, or a room full of rainbow mix toddlers. That means that 100 today, is not the same as 100 a generation ago, or a generation from now. This is a very complex subject with a lot of internal controversy. It doesn't need the BS that comes with being a virtue signal or political cudgel, as well.

  12947.  @kingofthebums  It depends upon the production. Generally the actors are not supposed to load or unload the weapon, but unless theres some reason the Director or safety personnel doesn't want them to, they may check it by checking the chamber, or rotating the cylinder, under supervision. At any rate, the standard procedure, is for the weapon handler to check the weapon in front of the actor and under supervision of the AD. If there is supposed to be any kind of ammunition, be it blank or dummy, the AD may then have the weapon handler unload the weapon and the AD will inspect the ammunition. Then, the weapon handler will load and prepare the gun and give it to the actor. If its a large amount of ammunition, such as loaded magazines for high volume fire, there will be someone on the Direction crew that supervises the magazine loading and keeps it within their sight until its returned to the armory; snd the onsite ammunition inspection will be skipped. Typically, with revolvers of this type, with removable cylinders, theres no need to even have dummy rounds, for any reason but closeups of the gun being loaded. They have preloaded dummy cylinders that just have plugs in the ends of the cylinder that look like a bullet. But, at no time does anyone but the weapons crew and the actor, handle a gun. In short there was no legitimate reason why he couldn't have thumbed open the loading gate, seen something in a chamber and said 'hey, is this supposed to be loaded?' There were safety failures from end to end, here. But, at the end of that chain, was someone knowingly and wilfully accepting a gun from an individual that was not authorized to distribute a gun. Its like taking a gun from the coffee girl.

  13103. This is the consequence of everyone's habitually defending themselves against virtue attacks. You cannot successfully defend yourself from such attacks, only prostrate yourself to the virtue police. The question we should be asking is not if its true,, but does it even matter if it is? If there is no evidence that it were anything but a singular youthful indiscretion, then does it still matter? Adolescents learn about everything in life, by pushing boundaries until they push back. EVERY psych PhD knows this, BTW (Im a MA in Clinical Psych). Theres a reason juvenile records are sealed and 16 year olds cant vote or carry guns. Its because adolescents are biologically incapable of controlling their emotions and 'urges', having to learn appropriate behavior, by boundary testing. For that reason, we recognize that mistakes of youth should not limit an individual's future. This goes for any virtue attack. Take for example, the standard 'RACIST!!!' attack. When someone calls me racist, to win an argument, I dont grovel to be believed that Im not a racist. Rather, I challenge my accuser to provide one solitary objective fact, that racism is wrong. If being a racist is so bad that it invalidates any position I may hold; if a political platform relies upon painting an opponent as 'racist', then there should be at least one fact available to support that standard (spoiler: there never is). Make no mistake, this is a virtue attack, not a criminal allegation. The alleged incident was neither important enough for her to pursue, in service of Justice, nor did she feel the 'Civic responsibility' to protect all the unsuspecting women of the world, from this dangerous person. The incident was not a concern for her, until she found it of utility in marriage counseling more than 30 years after the fact. Im predicting that when we learn more about her and her personal politics come to light, we will be unsurprised.

  13192. Still some critical assumptions being made. The salient question is, would he have made the payment a day prior to filing for candidacy and would he have made the payment, even if he knew it would not help his campaign? They are making the assumption of 'campaign' expenditure' vs 'campaign contribution', whereas this will very likely fall dead as a 'personal expenditure', just like getting the same shoe shine, you got the day before candidacy. Those expenditures, while in service to a campaign, are not required to be reported - like reporting toilet paper expenditures. While its going to be a shouting match over it, this is ultimately among, if not the, emptiest nothing burger, yet. Then atop all of it, is the the credibility issue of the lawyer that until 2 days ago, was the most crooked, dishonet, compulsively lying mobster scumbag, in America. Oh and who now has a crowdfund to disparage the President and implicate him in more crimes... like a camshow - at $1million, Ill circle jerk with Michael Avenatti while detailing Russian collusion. Anyone who thinks this is going anywhere, isnt paying attention. The campaign finance issue, was blatantly an 'inducement' by prosecutors, having absolutely nothing to do with the trouble he was in; and now hes mitigating that testimony and tainting any future testimony, by openly soliciting public... ummm... campaign contributions... to continue implicating Trump in his misdeeds. This also is a strong indication that hes already given up anything of worth that he had, with the alleged campaign violation. TL;DR If Cohen had any credibility or further testimony to give, his 'truth fund', has obliterated it.

  13972. The last thing that changed the war, was bombing the Crimea bridge and trolling Putin on Twitter about it. Prior to that one, specific event, Russian ROE no-striked infrastructure and restricted strikes beyond the active front, to targets and assets which could be positively traced to direct actions against official RF forces. Everyone assumed, because of the dUhHhRrRrRr RuSsIa StUpId propaganda that they weren't striking weapons depots, training facilities, barracks and infrastructure, because they couldn't . Contrary to the firehose of propaganda, Russia in fact has laws and 'Special Military Operation' is not a euphemism. Its a legal framework similar to the US 'AUMF', except with actual conduct restrictions. When the bridge was bombed, it changed the ROE to allow strikes on infrastructure and secondary targets. everyone has been crying, every day since. The reason Ukraine hasn't been supplied with big boy weapons, is because they have the impulse control of a 13 year old with a credit card. They're going to screw around with their glorious V weapons and get themselves a Dresden. Everyone is so irrecoverably brainwashed that they still think Russia is bluffing, Russia can't do nuthin, Russia is running out of ammo, Russia is already doing everything they can and they're losing all day everyday. Ukraine is going to end up getting the actual 'war' with Russia that they only think they've been fighting for only a year and have already commissioned the world's larget military cemetery. People really need to wrap their minds around that and think really hard about whether they really want the game to change again.

  15049. Its not a deception, but it is meant to draw troops off the front. This is their strategy for the past more than a year, culminating. They've been pressing the entire line, not just major objectives, wearing down Ukrainian forces while reinforcing their own, looking for soft spots. As soon as they began to appear, Ukraine began redeploying forces to address them. Avdiivka was the first major penetration and Ukraine waited too long to respond, so now Chasiv Yar is about to be in the same situation. Russia is prepared to go ahead with a Kharkiv offensive and if Ukraine redeploys to address it, Donetsk AO or some other major objective will get overrun. Its Ukraine's turn at not having the force strength to secure the entire front, but the disparity in numbers and quality are much greater than when Ukraine had the advantage. Its about to be a monumental disaster, if they dont pull a rabbit out of their hat, or man up, take the L, retrograde to a defendable position and build some fortifications like Russia did. The problem is they've run their mouths and postured too much do that without the loss of face force multiplying the tactical defeat. This is why I always say the danger of the 'P' word, is that its just like gas and a change in the wind will blow it right back into your own hole and poison your own side. Everything you say about the other side, qualifies your own successes and failures. At best, you heroically beat up the village skinny kid. On the other side of that coin, a stupid, demoralized, untrained hotdog vendor butchers 10 brigades of your most glorious heros, with his little shovel and leaves them rotting face down in the puddle of sht you flung for 6 months.

  16683.  @gingerlicious3500  Just to clarify, people who say stupid shit like 'America would steamroll Russia in weeks', just cant be taken seriously. You're either 12, or just an imbecile. It took a million man 30+ country army we built up for six months, over a month to 'steamroll' 100k Iraqis that literally had their uniforms rotting off them like castaways. Imagine surrendering your entire company for a MRE and a bottle of water; or shooting at Abrams and Challengers, with antipersonnel shot like artillery, from your immobile tank. Is that what you're talking about 'this war has already been fought'? Or, maybe its the 20 years fighting a country that didn't even have a military, only to get chased out humiliated, with RPGs and rusty AKs and leaving them stronger than before we invaded? Im still waiting for you to elaborate on that repeated claim, because the closest America has gotten 'fighting this war' was Korea and I seem to have missed the part with the steamrolling? War is about pain tolerance and you're so absurdly arrogant, you think you can take more than a Russian. American warfighting strategy is to make poor people poorer and expect them to react like an American who just got told they have to keep their current iPhone another year. You might pull your head out of your hole and look around. A substantially larger portion of the world, than not, hates UK and America to fucking death and is seriously sick of our shit. Yeah, genius, the only reason the US didn't have 100k casualties in Iraq, or Astan, is because of body armor. Ukraine has the same armor, but artillery, missiles and drones don't give a shit. You know, that stuff neither Astan, nor Iraq had; along with air defenses. You brainwashed idiots keep acting like Russia has a million troops in Ukraine. They have about 150k and are outnumbered 3.2:1. Try really hard to get your propaganda addled mind around that. And Im still waiting for you to source your fake quotes, you keep attributing to me.

  16686.  @gingerlicious3500  Lol, do you think reading Wikipedia makes you an expert on how Desert Storm played out? Dumbshit, I performed ISR and BDA for Desert Storm, Southern Watch and Noble Anvil -513th MI-BD/297th MI-BN '89 - '99 Do I think the air campaign was responsible for Iraqi troops' chronic malnourishment and rotted uniforms? No, not really. I mean, I did see some secret weapons, but nothing like a temporal dilation field. 'Someone involved at the strategic level' Does performing ISR/ISTAR for the 'Left Hook' count? Do you know how to tell whats under the canopy of a 2½ ton cargo truck, by the color of the native vegetation? 'Flag officer's opinion' Does Stormin' Norman's opinion of me count? I still have his card with his personal number handwritten on the back, from when he visited me in the hospital in Riyadh to shake my hand and tell me I made him proud and if wasn't getting everything I need, to call him directly and he would see to it. Not even in the same class of creature as Gen. Righteous Strike; you know, the strategic genius that told Zelensky in April not to negotiate, because Russia had already blown its load and would have to quit and go home in 3 weeks. 'Battle of 73 Easting' Yeah, so, did BDA for all 3 of the major armor engagements(and onsite BDA inside Iraq, for Project Backstage; evaluating PGM performance) Which, if your reading comprehension were even slightly better than that of a common housecat, would explain how I know 25 - 30% of armor kills were on derelict vehicles. And how I know they were firing antipersonnel rounds at American tanks. And how I know Iraq's armor was export variants that were already obsolete at the time of DS. But, again, not really relevant when they're broken down or abandoned. 'Dodging the question' No, not at all, Im still busy proving you have zero clues WTF you're talking about and who you're trying to bullshit about it. And still not a single actual quote to backup your persistent lies about what Ive said. You really need to go talk to some children who are impressed with your Wikipedia knowledge, because Im just getting started with picking apart your imbecility. We have a half dozen other idiotic claims to cover when Im done with DS. You have videogame stats comprehension of weapon performance and warfare and really should stop.

  16731. Internet conspiracist, claiming to be an intelligence community insider, riles up a handful of rightwing rioters to break into and vandalize the Capitol blg, as President Trump is speaking over 1.5 miles away. Among the small group of rioters, are known and experienced Left-wing agitators, disguised as Trump supporters; and are calling for violence, vandalism and arson. Anderson Cooper, who has direct ties to CIA, interviews one of the agitators; the content of said interview, becomes core of dominant narrative. When peaceful protestors from the rally arrive, they are ushered inside, by police and security. During the ordeal, President Trump repeatedly tweets calls to be peaceful and orderly. Alex Jones tries to intervene and pleads for people to go home. President Trump impeached an unprecedented 2nd time, an unprecedented days before leaving office, for 'incitement of insurrection' in reference to the breach that occurred prior to utterance of the alleged incitement. Democrats vow an unprecedented and Constitutionally suspect post-Presidency trial. Social media bans the President of the United States of America, citing the words 'patriots' and 'patriotism' as hate/violent speech and claims the words "To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the inauguration on January 20th", are a coded message to extremists, that it is safe to attack. Recognized Dictators, despots and terrorists around the world remain online. Within hours, 10s of thousands of mostly rightwing social media users are silenced and their alternate media and communication resources wiped from the Internet. Martial lockdown inauguration, with as many US troops as the invasion of Panama and more US troops activated around the country, than the US had in Afghanistan, 5 years ago. Questions and paranoia about military loyalty Paranoia about fellow Legislators Fear and paranoia about the People For what the media reports as the "cleanest election in history", of the "most popular President in history." “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you... he’s being really dumb to do this." - Senator Chuck Schumer (D) 1/4/2017, on Trump challenging US intelligence agencies.

  17052.  @driverghosting8027  No, that's your argument. Integrity test: name 3 things Rittenhouse did wrong that night/3 opportunities to avoid the encounter with Rosenbaum. Disclosure: I am a former Geospatial Imagey Analyst. My primary duties were Bomb Damage Assessment and Realtime ISR. Know those aerial videos of gunfights in Iraq and Somalia? Im the people who analyze those and figure out what happened. You can dig back through my old comments on various threads and confirm that I correctly called his running backwards through the parking lot with his rifle up, well before the 'zoom-in' uproar. If the defense team had someone like myself, they wouldn't have put him on the stand to lie. The first time I saw the image of him entering the parking lot, was on a Rekieta stream, having a fit about it being allowed. I had no context for what it was supposed to show, they were arguing that they didn't know what it was supposed to show, yet I commented there, to what was eventually claimed. What I saw: the fire extinguisher is between his feet, having been dropped at his left side and his right foot is planted, meaning he stepped outside the extinguisher with his left foot and pivoted on his right; he pivoted left to right, appx 45°. His head is facing the direction of movement, his weapon is muzzle up, at appx +35°, with his left hand on the the forend about one handspan forward of the magwell. If the prosecution had someone like myself, they would've had a better analysis. The point is, I kinda know what Im talking about, because I've kinda done this before, with lives in the balance.

  18281.  @themilitarycops1618  'Unvaccinated more likely to contract' Thats not been established. The reason we see 'breakthrough' cases, is because vaccination is not a shield against infection; you still have to get infected, for your immune system to recognize the pathogen and deal with it. The objective is to stop the infection, before viral load gets high enough to cause illness. So, even when vaccinated, you are as vulnerable to infection as anyone else, but you're less susceptible to illness . The reason they are called 'breakthrough', is simply because the infection becomes visible. Asymptomatic infection When you get 'sick', the overwhelming majority of symptoms is your immune system carpet bombing everything, because it doesn't know exactly what its looking for, or where. Vaccination gives your immune system a BOLO and a smartbomb. Because it can recognize and attack the virus directly, there are much milder symptoms. But you are infected and can 'asymptomatically' transmit it... to anyone mRNA The issue with this vaccine, is not necessarily the mRNA delivery, but the engineered synthetic protein. Up until now, all vaccines have used live or dead virus that give your system a look at the whole thing. The way this vax works, is like taping a photocopy of someone's face to your windshield to fool traffic cameras. It kinda sorta works, but not very well, which is why we have such a high rate of 'breakthroughs'. There is legitimate concern about the downstream effects of repeatedly exposing the immune system to synthetic '2-dimensional' pathogens. The 'superbugs' we always hear about, in relation to overuse of antibiotics, are themselves not extraordinary, they are simply able to evade an immune system that has been overexposed to inactive pathogens. 'Alternative' treatments COVID appears to exploit slow immune response, as opposed to weak response. The virus simmers with a low grade infection and then amplifies in a burst. So, a slow reacting immune system is ambushed and overrun. This is likely the reason it disproportionately affects various age groups. The antiparasitic drugs that are verboten to talk about( goooooo... (((SCIENCE!))) ) work much as a broad spectrum antibiotic, by bootstrapping the immune system. ZPack is a broad spectrum AB that is also used as a treatment and of course dismissed as voodoo, 'cause iTs A vIrUs NoT bAcTeRiA'; AB don't attack the bacteria, they trigger the immune system and prevent secondary infections that complicate the viral infection, which is why they've been used since forever to treat viral infections - the majority of critical COVID cases, present with complicating secondary infections. Because it exploits lagging immune response, any jump you get on it, appears to have significant benefit. Thus, why Drs are prescribing ZPack and the drugs whose name must never be spoken (again... Yay, SCIENCE!!!). Mandate This virus is no longer a threat. It likely never was; the piles of bodies it left, are largely the result of administrative overraction(like a carpet bombing immune system), improper treatment and blindly following the Italy protocol that killed so many people. Enough people have had it to incorporate some measure of natural immunity into the populace, we know how to treat it and most importantly how NOT to treat it (recall that at the beginning, everyone was hospitalized and a large percentage were unnecessarily vented, with catastrophic results) So yeah, thats why mandatory vaccination is not rooted in any science and is simply an authoritarian exercise of power, merely for the sake of optics

  18644. 'Air defense' made in Belfast 🤨 So, you're going to send them more MPAD in 6 months. They're going to have Russian bombers over Kiev in 2 months, because they're stripping all their SAM crews to man trenches. There is no amount of money or weapons you can give to someone that doesn't have trained operators to use it. They already cant use the stuff they've been given. They don't have enough qualified crews to run the Soviet systems they're accustomed to. What are you going to do when the US cuts off intelligence support? You really think Europe has given more than the US? That $350B Trump is talking about, isnt tanks, its all the ISR/RSTA high angle assets and an entire analysis corps dedicated to Ukraine; along with 90% of the logistics and more than 70% of humanitarian aid. $350B is probably a lowball. Furthermore, where would European/NATO defense stand without US intelligence and logistics? Iran will match or exceed Europe's technical intelligence capability in 7 years. Russia and China are only slightly behind the US. China and Russia may possess capabilities the US doesn't. We have a handful of high resolution imagery assets, but most of our capability advantage is in numbers(coverage) and China is set to exceed our coverage in 5 years. We may have the 'best', but I can say as a former analyst, that resolution is a diminishing return and most of our tactical intelligence was generated from 1960s equivalent imagery. European countries are going to have to make some hard choices that are going to dramatically lower their high horse and moralization about American social structure and institutions.

  18915. Few issues, here... If a round will not penetrate a wall, it will not penetrate a person. Unless youre a 1337 pipe swinging operator, youll probably miss at least once. When you're sending rounds unabated into the background, its just silly to make decisions based on what the one that actually hits the target, is going to do after. The problem is, everyone thinks they're a 1337 pipe swinging operator, when even the real deal pipe swingers, arent always all that operator. Suppressors are a luxury item and really dont belong in 'home defense' discussion. The scope should be narrowed to what an average person has access to(some jurisdictions simply don't allow them at all); the 'best' home defense gun, is a MP5KSD, especially for all those pipe swinging operators out there. But, thats not really a viable option. Yes, you can put a budget on home protection. In fact, especially if you have a family, you have to put a budget on it, just like you do on everything else. Why is turning on the lights a bad idea? That is more likely than anything else, to discourage an intruder into a withdrawal. They're definitely going to see you shining your light around. Plus, for the average person, 'muzzle search' as in pointing the weapon around as a light, is a really bad idea. I cant disagree more, about the phone. Call 911, tell them theres an intruder in your home with your children and HANG UP . Do NOT give the police a fucking recording of you killing someone! Once more, DO... NOT give them a recording of you shooting someone! Seriously man, WTF??? Then, because you didnt have a silencer, you have an excuse to go straight to the hospital and not talk to the cops... because you're deaf. Key words - Mmmop... Mmmmwawp... III DONNNT FEEEL WELLL, I NEEED A DR! (odds are, this wont be an act,) The last thing you want to do is talk to the cops all jacked up on adrenaline and victory, after shooting someone. All said, probably the best home defense weapon for the average person, is a 9mm pistol with a LASER sight, or a narrow beam/hot spotting weapon light, for an across-the-room point and click.

  19037.  @zerodawn2277  Almost everything people think they know about USSR in Afghanistan and the breakup of the Union is myth and propaganda. Afghanistan: USSR facilitators and advisors were in Afghanistan at the gvt's invitation. There was no 'invasion'. A cartel of tribal drug farmers who didnt want the Soviets there, took it upon themselves to take up the welcome mat, by murdering several governmental advisors and soldiers. A subsequent US/UK/Pakistan backed coup ousted the pro-Soviet gvt. Deposed gvt officials and their remaining in-gvt allies requested assistance, resulting in a Soviet Special Forces operation to return the ousted gvt to power. The following tit-for-tat started a civil war, to which the USSR responded with an invasion. Bottom line: the Soviet Army was in Afghanistan from beginning to end, at the request of the legitimate Afghan gvt. By the time we were done 'helping' the Mujahideen, 60% of the male population of Afghanistan, was under the age of 15. Take a moment to wrap your mind around that. A decade later we are invading and destroying their country, to eliminate our own 'allies' that aren't as grateful as we anticipated. USSR Collapse: There's a whole lot of myths about the collapse and its cause. Because Im not into writing a book no one with bother to read, Ill just cover the Western insinuation of some kind of 'revolution' of Soviet states, heroically fighting for their independence. In fact, most of the Soviet satellites, particularly in Eastern Europe, wanted to remain with Russia and were essentially abandoned to fend for themselves. The USSR didn't collapse, so much as kicked out its kids that it could no longer afford to support. The US/UK then radicalized them against Russia and bought them off with economic benefits. The notion that they joined NATO for protection from Russia is just asinine. They wanted to be with Russia and needed protection from each other after Russia kicked them to the curb. Iraq: mess we had to clean up after 'helping' them against Iran ISIS: once again, throwing money and guns at raping, torturing, murdering, cannibal savages, because they raped, murdered, tortured and cannibalized Russians. Ukraine: just getting started and Ukraine is already blaming US and NATO for their country getting destroyed. Ukrainian self-identified neonazis and 'ultra-nationalist' terrorists, deliberately attack civilians with Western training, weapons and support and we cheer for them because they hurt Russians.

  19267.  @mizzgeek99  The deeply profound irony, is that was a CNN spun narrative. We went because Saddam had spent the entire time from the ceasefire, violating said ceasefire and posed a threat to the entire region with a stockpile of CW and an arsenal of conventional weapons, that he was about to lose control of. He was equally a direct threat to his own people that he was slaughtering like vermin, in a vain attempt to maintain control. SOP of Saddam's army, to suppress rebellion, was to drag the neighbors of rebels into the street and shoot them in the head and leave them; the villagers forbidden to remove the bodies, under threat of the same penalty. Difficult as it is to fathom, imagine that in your neighborhood, as a response to, say, a mass shooter? CNN took the concern that 'terrorists are going to get WMD from Saddam's army' and hyperbolized it into 'Saddam is going to give anthrax to terrorists' and amplified it throughout the MSM. In a stroke of unparalleled imbecility, the Bush admin just rolled with that because it was basically true and easier than explaining to people like yourself, the threat posed by allowing a WMD armed military's arsenal, to hit the wind like happened after the collapse of the USSR. For the record, the main article of 'WMD' that was propagated in the media, was the scariest of scaries - (((MOBILE ANTHRAX LABS))) ; incidentally, the only thing we didn't find. But, not surprising, because it was always a low confidence assessment. However, it was sensational and the one thing the media took away, because it was hard for most people to understand what the big deal was, about just a 'few barrels' of nerve agent.

  19542. The problem with the 'be glad its gins' argument, is that if bombs and poison gas, etc were that effective or easy to do, it would be the weapon of choice. The reason guns are, is because they require no technical expertise or any significant preparation. Its a point and click solution. 99% of bombers' first victim, is themselves. Sure, its 'easy' to make something go boom. The challenge is not making yourself go boom. The uncomfortable truth is that if 'assault weapons' were banned, public rampage murders would dwindle to virtually zero. All the features of these weapons that make them desirable to us, make them ideal for mass shootings. The question is whether or not the pros of banning said weapons, outweigh the cons. That is where the argument lay. Simply screaming WHAT PART OF MY ALL CAPS DONT YOU UNDERSTAND!!! isnt moving the ball and neither are the clever quips about 'gun free zones' and 'make murder illegal', or the completely disingenuous arguments that the 'assault' features, of 'assault weapons' are just cosmetic. Every single one of these standardized features, have been developed for half a century or more, to increase lethality. If you cant justify owning such a weapon, STFU in quiet satisfaction that you dont have to. But, do not blue falcon the rest of us, with weak, disingenuous arguments, because you assume your opponent is a stupid Libturd who doesnt know what a barrel shroud is for (yeah, if you think its cosmetic, just remove it and get back to me). In short, if you cant carry the argument from either end, don't pick it up. There is no legislative solution to this problem. Its not guns, its not mental health, its social and we are all culpable. We have all, through our actions and by our inactions, created a 'no boundaries' culture of entitlement and instant gratification. These acts are being committed by people who feel marginalized, for a variety of reasons. 9/10 of these public mass murders, are a social justice rampage, over society's denial of the sex/inclusion/respect/success/etc, they've been institutionalized to feeling entitled. Every time you call someone an 'incel cuck', you are contributing; every time you call one of these people a 'loser', you are contributing; every time you judge someone's worth as a Human, by their success, you are contributing. No matter what measures are taken, this will only get progressively worse, until everyone stops trying to just kick it as far away as they can, from their own feet.

  20863. Without a more nuanced policy statement, I can't call that a 'flip-flop'. The 'wiretap' provision, was/is a necessity, whatever anyone may think from the safe side of the keyboard. The issue has always been the permissive nature of the Court. These are not 'warrantless' searches, they do require a court approval. They can more appropriately be characterized as 'evidenceless' warrants, as the applicant often only produces a circumstantial suspicion. Rather than heres our current evidence that establishes a likrly crime now please allow us to search for the proof, its this guy is talking to a foreigner we've determined through classified methods is a threat to national security, we need to know what they're talking about before its too late. The problem is 99% of the time the Court asks no questions and simply takes the request at face value, because they dont want the responsibility for saying no. Like when your dad tells you if you go somewhere you're not supposed to the transmission will fall out of the car. Like a curse. So, dishonest and lazy investgators take advantage to facilitate corrupt intentions and or, to avoid the hard work and or, possible failure and responsibility. People have really forgotten what the 2000s were like and the immediate, merciless fingerpointing and scapegoating anytime something happened. Just look at how people treat Law Enforcement whenever a nut goes on a rampage. Now imagine you're the one that denied, or failed to get the warrant that would've stopped 9/11. So, you end up with a system where both sides are in full-time CYA mode. FISA is an extraordinary provision and therefore needs extraordinary oversight. It currently has essentially no oversight.

  21521.  @emailhit  Depends what you mean by 'MMA'? What people often refer to as 'MMA' has become kind of a brand of BJJ, with some striking. Actual MMA, though, is just any mixture of different martial arts, so really, anything you do could be 'MMA'. I think boxing and judo is the most powerful combination, for a realworld skillset. I know a lot of people will say BJJ, but the attractive qualities of BJJ, are also some of the worst for beginners. In particular, its relatively safe to go 100% on your first day. So, you're rock n rollin', learning actual effective skills, before you've learned any disciple or wisdom to carry them responsibly. In judo, you spend months just learning how to fall, so you don't cripple each other, when the real training starts. Boxing teaches you humility and responsibility. When you start boxing, you are going to get... your... ass... kicked, for a long time. You'll learn the price of fighting and you'll learn the most important skill you can ever have, for self defense - how to endure a beating. You'll also discover confidence that you can take care of yourself. In a real fight, the last thing you want to do, is get on the ground; another major point against BJJ. Judo will teach you how to stay on your feet, how to get to your feet and it will teach you restraint , because the reality is, simply shoving someone, could potentially end in death. Now, if you just need to be able to look in the mirror and say 'I can fight', which I respect, the solution is pretty simple. Pick out a couple punches, a high percentage throw and a simple easy kick, all that you can do right now, at your current fitness level. Practice them until you can do any one, or mix them into combos, at will. You'll be able to win or escape 99% of confrontations you'll ever have. I hope thats a useful answer.

  21557. ladianamc ladianamc I know you didnt say it, you implied it. You implied that his voters would've voted differently - 'keeping it secret, partially got him elected'. For that to be true, you have to establish that his voters are intelligent and rational, to which EVERY SINGLE ONE of his Democratic opponents and media nemesis have declared the contrary. This matters, because of the initial claim that hiding this 'dirt' helped him defeat Hillary, when it was in fact Hillary's disparagement of voters, that helped him win - study after study after study has failed to demonstrate that one solitary voter's mind was changed by 'dirt' on either side. As for 'this recent turn of events', its neither recent, nor a turn, its an established pattern. There is zero evidence that it was about the election and there is... well... an alleged safe full of evidence that it was a matter of regular personal image maintenance - again, cant have it both ways, either its something he wouldve done regardless, or its not... and it appears that it is something he wouldve done. The fact that the campaign stimulated the market for dirt, does not in any regard, negate the fact that he has an established history handling such issues, with payoffs. Therefore, it simply does not pass the 'campaign expenditure' test. But, you dont have to believe that, you can just wait for the great and mighty nothing thats going to happen about it. Context matters, you cant simply isolate an event from a chain and concoct a history and future around it.

  21741. +Chairun Siregar You have made no valid argument and I hadnt seen your replies until now. I asked you to diagram the sentence for a specific reason, not just to be snarky... as well as my inquiry about your indigenous language. Sentence structure maybe similar in modern standard, but meaning is not. The short answer here, is that the second part, 'Right to keep arms shall not be infringed' is the independent clause and the first part 'militia being necessary for security' is the depended clause. Necessity of a militia is an explanation, not a constraint. 'Shall not be infringed' is the constraint. But, if you want to delve into that, we need to understand the contemporary meaning of 'militia' and 'regulated'. This can easily be researched, but Ill go ahead and give another short answer - 'militia' = 'armed Citizenry', or anyone capable of presenting arms. 'Regulated' = 'standardized' in equipment and technique. Because a Citizenry armed with 'regular' equipment and training is necessary for securing Freedom, the People have the Right to be armed. The security of a Free state, is a justification for having a militia. Therefore, the militia clause can be extracted, leaving us with 'necessity for security' as reason for a Right of the People to keep 'regular' arms. But, this is academic, as the Right of the People, everywhere else it occurs, is well understood and established to mean Individuals, not states, or organizations, or with any other conditions - The Right of the People, unconditionally means a Right of the unaffiliated individual. The Right of the People is what is being described and however one interprets the rest of the sentence, one part remains clear and unalterable - the Right of individual Citizens to possess arms shall not be infringed. The regulated militia clause describes what kind of arms they have Right to keep and bare - 'regular' arms suitable to secure Freedom. The dependent clause operates as an explanation, not as a requisite. But, again academic, as SCOTUS has ruled that it is an individual Right, independent of participation in any organization. But lets assume for argument that the militia clause is a constraint. Then what you are actually arguing, is not that we shouldnt have guns, but that we should all be training in militia. However, the Right to maintain a militia is more severely degraded and infringed, than the Right to be armed. To gun control advocates, 'Militia' has connotations more negative than 'pedophile'. 9/11 was allowed to happen, because President Clinton, obsessed with the 'militia threat', had 70% of our security apparatus turned on domestic militia. Look into the California Viper Militia. Viper Militia was created by ATF, if I recall correctly, as a 'domestic terrorism' honeypot and ultimately netted arrest of 3 federal agents from FBI and DEA, who had infiltrated a 'dangerous extremist cell' and two young men whom the undercover ATF approached in a bar and laboriously talked into coming out to the camp to learn about bomb making - the two men were cleared when a judge determined that they had no prior interest in criminal or 'extremist' activity, until persistently recuited by ATF agents. It was a huge embarrassment and extremely disturbing incident. So, perhaps, what we should really be discussing, is systematic stigmatization and infringement of the Right to maintain regular militia? I vehemently encourage you to read what the authors had to say about writing the Second Amendment (and all the Amendments, for that matter). It is well documented what the authors meant and intended. This is a bit inefficient and chaotic, but its past my bed time. Perhaps Ill write up a more considered response later.

  21742. +Chairun Siregar No. Historically, James Madison believed the maintenance of standing militia was an untenable burden and therefore the best compromise was for the Citizenry to be appropriately armed, equipped and self-drilled, as to be called upon to form the militia, as needed. But, as previously noted, its a moot argument, as precedent establishes Rights of the People, to be UNCONDITIONAL Rights of the individual. This is affirmed in many SCOTUS decisions regarding eligibility for Civil Rights - that an individual Right may not be tied to, or conditioned upon participation in any organization(notably, the 'Press')or payment of tax(notably, equal representation). SCOTUS has unequivocally affirmed the Second Amendment as an individual Right. However, if you wish to press such an argument, then the issue is that militia may not be organized, until properly equipped with the military appropriate arms that are denied to common Citizens - ie machineguns and explosive ordnance. But, as noted, aside from SCOTUS rulings on this and related Rights eligibility issues, the author of the Second Amendment was clear in accompanying documents, that militarily competent armament of the Citizenry precedes any obligation to militia service. This is a no brainer, when you understand(and mostly, ACCEPT) the difference between militia and army; militia being self-equipped, self-drilled individuals prepared to volunteer service as necessary and when not a financial, professional, or familial burden. No, there is no 'militia' to join so as to be trained and equipped, that is the 'army'. My neighborhood has a technical militia, as do most rural communities(where people actually know their neighbors) - self regulated individuals who are prepared to form together for common service. Your deconstruction of the Second Amendment is neither unique, nor valid. Your attempt is to attack it on technicality of modern language standards. This is fallacious at first principle and you and others attempting to do this, are profoundly short-sighted of changing the meaning of laws and Constitutional Rights, predicated upon current common meaning of the words that comprise it. It means whatvit says in the context of the period in which it was written; and to clarify that context, the authors of the Constitution wrote dozens of treatises in explanation and justification of its component clauses. This is how SCOTUS has traditionally informed its rulings and what, in fact, is being 'handwaved away'. ...and to address the absurd notion that inability of a militia or armed Citizens to defeat a standing army, somehow invalidates the Right to be armed... The dominance of electronic media renders the First Amendment obsolete. But its moot anyway, unless you are a member of the obsolete Press. The efficacy of modern surveillance renders the 4th Amendment moot and therefore invalid - no more warrants needed, because you cant hide anything anyway, nor do you carry 'papers'. The outclassing of Public Defense by the State and public prejudice, renders the 5th and 14th Amendments obsolete and invalid - if they want to get you, you cant defend yourself and if the public has decided your guilt, a trial is just a waste of resources. So, no more lawyers, trials or court rulings required to deprive a Citizen of their Rights. Etc. Oh yeah and youre completely wrong, as evidenced by much of history and by current conflicts, where the most powerful and technologically advanced military in Human history, has been repeatedly and effectively resisted by barefoot cavemen, wielding 60 year old rifles and rusted ammunition they dug up out of the sand.

  21745. +Chairun Siregar You completely misunderstood the example. Foreign conflict between 'state actors' is relatively unconstrained in a conventional paradigm. Note that in Lybia and Syria, the international community intervened to prevent or dramatically limit the gvt's use of armor and airpower against rebels, while in the Sandbox, UK, US and Germany have used armor and airpower with impunity, against a similar class of combatant. You really believe there wouldnt be half a dozen major world powers looking to intervene on part of American rebels??? A better question is who WOULDNT take that opportunity. The Civil War is a false analogy, as those were uniformed forces conducting a classic 'gentelmen's' war, not an insurgency where the 'enemy' is literally EVERYWHERE... even in your own uniforms. Those soldiers have friends and family, who they are not going to fight against, motivating substantial defection rates; defectors/deserters taking everything they can carry and sabotaging everything they cant, on the way out the door. Those tanks, planes and drones(tanks, planes and drones that will be denied or significantly limited in application, by foreign intervention) neither operate, nor maintain themselves; soft bodied people do. This can get very long winded very quickly, so lets just throw a couple numbers: US militay maintains less than 300k deployable land combat forces. There are appx 100 million LAWFUL gun owners in America and an estimated 15 - 40 million Prohibited Possessors and or possessors of restricted weapons. If 1% of the non-military component chose to fight, US infantry forces would be outnumbered more than 2::1, by an ununiformed adversary thats standing right next to them on the street. This assumes 100% availability for domestic deployment and doesnt include force depleting defectors/deserters, or soldiers who simply refuse to engage other Americans; inclusion of which would likely drive the disparity well beyond 3::1. At 2% of nonmilitary participation, the disparity grows unmanageable by any conventional means. As for training, many of those civilians have military training, combat experience and even leadership experience. Many civilians have training that surpasses nominal military training in combat skills, as well as military specialty skills. In fact, about 70% of military technical training and about 30% of advanced combat training is provided by civilian contractors, whose skills exceed military specification by an order of magnitude. As well, much of the military's theatre intelligence is provided by civilian contractors. I know, because Im a private military contractor and ex-Army intelligence analyst.

  22397.  @BabyBird691  They are looking at a central depot being cleared, not at a decreasing amount of surplus. The point being that he implies and outright makes fallacious assumptions, based on a quite literally surface level review of low grade imagery and public defense industry information. Chief among the several reasons the large depots are being cleared, is dispersal. Ukraine has hit a few storage depots with ineffectual drone attacks. However, the fact that they did attempt to strike them, is an imperative to disperse their contents. Second is deployment, which does not imply replacement of a loss; this is perhaps the most pervasive fallacy. As for loss counts, the only source everyone cites, Oryx, has flawed methodology and clear biases. For example, counting the same vehicle multiple times, from multiple different images and counting Ukrainian vehicles as Russian. One specific example of this was a disabled Russian tank that was counted multiple times, as it was moved from location to location during recovery; another is a disabled Ukrainian BTR3, destroyed while in Russian possession during recovery and counted by Oryx as a Russian loss. There's a maxim we followed to keep everyone's head straight - 'Information is not intelligence, facts do not imply conclusion, you cannot tell the truth with a lie, you can tell a lie with the truth'. Ill give a broadstroke example of actual imagery analysis. On my first assignment, working on the operational planning for the 'Left Hook' in Desert Storm, the team I was on spent almost 3 months studying soil composition, sand grain structure and local botany, so that we were able to identify, from space, whether a truck was carrying personnel, subsistence materiel, or ordnance, based upon the color and distribution of surrounding vegetation. If youve ever wondered what it feels like to have a superpower, that comes pretty close. An example of assumption, is BDA for the 3 major armor engagements, where the Bradley and Abrams got their fearsome rep. We spent almost a year afterwards, re-counting the destroyed vehicles and sorting out the battles to provide combat assessment (weapon system and crew performance). The Bradley, first off, was responsible for the overwhelming majority of blue on blue, because they were largely detached from the main armor formations and able to engage well beyond positive identification range. Secondly, the Bradley killcount went down dramatically from initial reports, when we started performing onsite BDA of vehicles and found that most had been hit from angles that indicated top down attacks(airstrikes), prior to being shot up by Bradleys. They were just rolling around quickdrawing on anything that popped up in their sights. Destroyed tanks, friendly tanks, etc. They also frequently misidentified AFVs as tanks, from extended range under thermals; leading to its reputation as a 'tank killer'. The perceived superiority of Challengers and Abrams was extremely exaggerated, as about 40% of the armor that Iraq fielded, was non-deployable by US DoD standards. They suffered from a range of issues such as broken hydraulics, faulty electrical, poorly maintained/worn out engines, low fuel, low/no/improper ammunition etc. A large percentage of engaged armor was broken down, or out of fuel, or out of ammo, or just abandoned by crews that didn't want to fight. They fired canister shot at Challengers from 3 times its antipersonnel range because they didn't have proper ammo. Large numbers of tanks were parked on berms firing indirect, because they were immobile, or their turrets wouldn't traverse, or their guns wouldn't elevate. These all being revelations gleaned from combat assessment following the initial BDA and after action reporting that showed only counts and ratios. I mean, we figured out over a month later that an enemy kill credited to a Bradley, was a blue on blue that didnt even slow down the friendly. Yet, it was officially recorded as an enemy kill. The point being that while Iraq indeed had the largest armor force and densest, most up to date air defenses in the region, it was all shot up, broken down, worn out junk from 10 years of them and Iran tuning each other up. Thats what we steamrolled over. These are mistakes made by the mighty US military, best in the world at everything and unlimited resources. Now, go figure the quality of work from internet neckbeards. Analysis is more than looking at pictures and counting things. Thats just information. One of the biggest problems the Soviets had was massive information gathering with no analytical capability. Lots of people taking lots of pictures and lots of people counting and describing things in the pictures, with no one trying to understand why the things were there.

  22702. Michael RCH What it showed, was general accuracy of models that were based upon historical trends. In other words, extending established patterns worked out somewhat, but when they introduced specific 'man made' influences in an effort to confirm hypotheses, the models became ridiculously unreliable. Its a fantastic case study in confirmation bias. One such blindspot is the 'accurate collection of data'(aka records that fit) only beginning well into the industrial age, fallaciously linking the two data sets. Though historical records dont include satellite data, they did record frequent climate shifts(for this purpose, environment trends lasting more than a decade) which have forced populations from one region to another... and then back again. Furthermore, the single most glaringly absent factor in 'climate change' modeling, is celestial mechanics and solar outputs. Wait... no... the single most profound exception, is that of rampant urbanization. Of course, youll never see the millions of square miles of concrete and mirrored glass, dammed rivers, diverted tributaries, elevated basins and massive deforestation featured as prominent sources of 'manmade climate change', because thats temple, where the clerics live. You wont see the 'climate change' industry rasing the alarm about the accelerating buildup of CO2, despite continued reduction of emmissions and corellation between that buildup and the aforementioned urbanization. Sure, your easy food supply on every corner and mass transit to your every desire, in 15 minutes or less, may make you FEEL safer by not facing up to the reality that its far more destructive to Humanity than my 20 year old car, but doing so makes us all much more unsafe.

  22797. Bob Lazar is a dupe. His story has evolved several times, but lets return to the core of his account. He saw this craft in a hangar somewhere out in the desert at a site called 'S4' near Area 51. He gave a description of the craft and the security measures guarding it, in particular some scifi hand scanners and turnstiles. 1) S4 is the USAF designation for maintenance. So a hangar at an 'S4' facility, would house aircraft in various states of disassembly. 2) description of the 'craft' citing two versions; a large one and a smaller version that he called the 'sport model' https://www.thedrive.com/content-b/message-editor%2F1592424914618-uyqsevijcc0spv2cjggi.jpg?quality=60 https://www.thedrive.com/content-b/message-editor%2F1592425942069-tamgetc0rzz5mczqkwmj1.jpg?quality=60 http://notreally.info/transport/planes/have_blue/img/_werc/smak/prev//have_blue_HBbottomsm.png    Sport model https://external-preview.redd.it/RFjLe09sOHJyNb7mKJO50kEktrbLZUOM06vOB6YVZTA.jpg?auto=webp&s=ce505aa6eb64c41d4f2ab830d6ac37a2914a9589 http://notreally.info/transport/planes/have_blue/img/_werc/smak/prev//have_blue_300-have_blue_and_senior_trend_silhouette.png He saw it at night hovering motionless for hous https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/haveblue1-640x891.jpg    Boeing had one, too https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/northropxst.jpg 4) hand scanners at the facility, exactly as described https://s3.amazonaws.com/the-drive-staging/message-editor%2F1517862619824-jjajaj113.jpg https://s3.amazonaws.com/the-drive-staging/message-editor%2F1517859169640-kkakd14.jpg https://www.thedrive.com/content/2018/02/aajjaj13.jpg?quality=85&width=1920&quality=70 5) They employed disinformation and decoys as cover    a) they had a prop device with red flashing lights, they loaded onto an A7 and flew it around, claimed to be an experimental 'cloaking device' to make the plane invisible to sensors... but they just couldn't get it to work https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/c_fit,f_auto,g_center,pg_1,q_60,w_1165/tzaw3zg1eylptxb5xeg4.jpg    b) when reporters or politicians came around to checkout rumors about the 'invisible plane' they were testing, they were shown an empty hangar with a ladder and cables and a helmet suspended on wires to look like they were hooked up to an invisible plane. They were informed that it was a 'joke' that got out of hand. https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/c_fit,f_auto,g_center,pg_1,q_60,w_1165/u6v5sjxqopfuy9hyqgwe.jpg So, think this over. Lazar is contracted to do some work at Tonapah's S4 facility, peeks through a window he wasnt supposed to and sees something shocking. He gets curious and starts sneaking more peeks. Incredulous at the things hes seeing and hearing around the water cooler, he starts asking questions and talking to people off-base. Concerned they have a security issue, some 'men in black' pull him into a room and pump him to the gills with crazy bullshit. Ask yourself, if hes a contractor, working on deciphering the most highly classified technology in history, why would they loop him in on all the spicy alien politics?

  22940. Spinning what, exactly? Ooohhh... you meant spinning the spin, or rather unspinning it? This is indeed a rabbit hole, that this bush league lawyer has thrown his client into. This is going to end up in subpoena of her financials and then everyone is going to see what her real profession is and how many times shes shaken down someone for payoffs - if you think Trump is the only one, youre hopelessly dumb. But the idiot lawyer has just put himself in a position to be sued into oblivion for defamation, or be forced to explain how he obtained other people's banking records - actual crime; and a rather serious one at that. What happened here, is that the washed-up pornstar held some stock (Banged Donald Trump, Ltd) and prior to the elections, that investment was about to tank, so she sold off for pennies on the dollar, to get out from under it. Then, it rebounded and went off the charts and she got greedy. Her idiot lawyer sees nothing but the next payoff and thinks hes going to get famous for 'taking down President Trump'. Problem is, he doesn't know WTF hes doing and who wouldve guessed, but his client who takes 12 dicks in the ass on camera, to pay for a new purse, thinks this is the best idea, EVER. Really, all politics aside, its mindnumbing how fucking stoooopud he must be, to have let her do that SNL appearance. But, like I said, gotta get PAID! Simply the fact that shes used her porn name throughout the entire ordeal and constantly talked about how shes 'worried that this is overshadowing her movies', should tell you everything you need to know about the motivation and substance of it. Unless of course, youre one of those people who believes the girl in the video really is super heartbroken that the bucket of dicks for her to eat, is empty?

  23286.  @ichdgaming9637  Ukraine has lost at last publicized account, 30% of their Western supplied armor and ~20% of their NATO model personnel. That was nearly a month ago. Under US Army doctrine, that is combat ineffective. Where they are now, is teetering on operationally ineffective. Ukraine is ramping up for a Roman column, where they're going to have to just pick a spot and march their army into it like a meat drill. Russia is currently absorbing Ukraine's attacks in the grey zone, forward of their first defensive order. Their defense lines are not lines, but zones setup in arcs, where any point on the arc can fire on any other point on the arc. To 'capture' territory, they must penetrate two or more zones and collapse a broad enough area of the zone's mutual support, to create a safe zone out of range of the the enemy's fire. Take a moment to wrap your head around that task... They haven't yet collapsed a significant portion of the first 'line'. Theyve only taken control of unfortified half-heartedly defended grey zone territory. When they do commit their army, which they have to do very soon, the Russian defenses are going to absorb it like kevlar vest and then use those 100,000+ troops just kinda hanging out at the Kharkiv AO. You 'people' are so stoopud™ brainwashed, you actually have convinced yourself that the side with 20% of their country occupied by nearly half a million troops, while 0 troops occupy 0% of the enemy's territory, 6 cities reduced to rubble, 3 cities and countless villages erased, negative GDP, 70% unemployment, half the country without power 70% of the time, losing 5000 personnel per week, incurring massive losses to plant a flag in a grey zone village for a selfie before getting shelled to pieces, resorting to attacking civilian targets for headlines and completely dependent upon foreign charity, is winning 🥳

  23652. @ABC123 You are partially correct and partially wrong. Most of the common vaccines were developed in 12 -18 months, but trialed on an average of ~7 years; typically if the kinks aren't worked out in 10 years, its considered a bust and scrapped. Some vaccines confer strong immunity, but it depends on the virus. Just a few years ago, it was believed coronaviruses were impossible to immunize against. Flu is also extremely tough, which is why they have to reformulate the vaxxes every season and they are about as effective as the corona vaxxes. People are failing to realize that a vaccine trains your system to fight a virus, so for it to fight, you must be infected . Once infected, your system recognizes it and attacks, before the viral load is high enough to produce symptoms. Sometimes symptoms begin to appear before your system fights it off and you have a so called 'breakthrough'. But, if you were going to get infected, it doesn't matter if you're vaxxed or not. Where it matters is how quickly your system fights it off. This is how vaccines have always worked, just some do it better than others. The stark line between mild/asymptomatic covid and deadly covid, is because it exploits slow or lazy immune response, as opposed to weak response. Indeed, strong immune response is what causes the problems. It seems that it 'simmers' and the immune system doesn't see it as a threat. Then it erupts with an extreme amplification and the immune system overreacts and goes nuclear and starts attacking everything. This is why steroids, broad spectrum antibiotics and antiparasitics appear to have benefit, if administered early, because those drugs muster the immune system to start producing generalized antibodies. Those antibodies find it and trigger the immune system to start making the right antibodies to fight it. These vaccines work phenomenally well, considering what they're fighting. That said, not killing you like cyanide as it goes in, is not remotely the same thing as safe. It needs to go through the same trial period and considering the paradigm shift in method and mechanism, from conventional vaxxes, it probably needs to go through a much longer trial, before its considered safe. The concern isnt the mRNA delivery mechanism, but the long term effects of repeatedly exposing your system to '2-dimensional' pathogens. Conventional vaxxes show your system the whole virus; mRNA vax shows it an outline of a single surface feature - like using a photocopy of a face, to fool a camera. But, to the point, the vaxxes work great and are /probably/ safe, but safety and efficacy is not the issue. Covid simply doesn't merit compulsory vaccination. The high mortality at the beginning, was due to the medical system overreacting like the infected's immune system and 'overtreating' patients. We know better and early treatment has brought mortality down comparable with flu. But, at its absolute worst, its nowhere near the 30% mortality of smallpox, which is historically known as a civilization destroyer.

  24276.  @rodgersericv  You dont know that. The point of 'secret weapons' is to hold them in reserve until they are needed, or to use covertly, so an adversary cant develop a defense. As it stands, the US has no apparent need for dedicated antiship missiles, because a number of other weapon systems fill the bill. As long as an enemy thinks the US doesnt have such weapons, they might believe their ships are safe, as long as they have their own secret defense to the known systems. We know for fact, that the US has 'unveiled' various operational EW weapons, only after they were discovered by enemies or press. Its reasonable to assume the US has an array of EW systems, the existence of which are secret. As long as the acknowledged arsenal provides adequate deterrent, there is no value in disclosing more advanced systems, until needed to restore balance. That said, some weapons are meant exclusively to be used, not brandished. I have first hand knowledge in this. After the Gulf War(513th MI-BDE), I rolled with a survey and documentation team, inspecting targets that had been hit with precision munitions. We saw LGB/GBU hits, TLAM hits and Harpoon hits. We also saw some hits from weapons we couldnt identify. The film was taken directly from the cameras, notes, debris and residue samples collected and put into a locked case with a 'civilian auditor' and team members searched, all before leaving the site. For sure, Ive been somewhat out of the loop, but Ive been to the sandbox recently and seen the work of all the currently acknowledged weapons and to date, nothing Im familiar with, matches the signatures we saw. Maybe a developmental precursor to current weapons? Maybe an abandoned project? Maybe something no one knows about... yet...

  24408.  @truthsRsung  'Those people' thought the Americans were going to leave them a functional gvt and effective military. I spent the better part of a decade on the NTM-I and NTM-A programs, developing military and police forces in Astan and Iraq. When we build up a foreign force like ANA, we build it to fail-safe. Thst is, we make it dependent upon our logistical support and informational systems, so that at any time, we can simply withhold our approval and they will be unable to perform any sophisticated operations. The gvt is setup the same way. They were dependant upon NATO combat controllers, they used our CASEVAC and combat medical facilities, they used our tactical intelligence and sat imagery, they depended upon US airstrikes and CAS and most importantly, they were using our combat network communications. When we left, we rolled all that up and took it with us. We took away all of their sophisticated capabilities and essentially stripped them down to small arms and walkies. Sure, we left a lot of sophisticated equipment. Trouble is, they don't know how to operate or maintain it, without our help. ANA is a 1st gen army. This gvt has been around for less than 20 years and every day of that, holding America's hand. What happened, is Glorious leader was in such a hurry to get out the door, he just yanked the cord and unplugged Afghanistan. There is a substantial corruption problem and a lot of split loyalties, but generally speaking they're like any other army; the majority is just guys putting bread on the table. So, while those who don't fully grasp the situation, see cowards who just surrendered, people like myself see a bunch of guys who suffered Vietnam scale losses, with NATO support and probably just didn't want spend 4 hrs driving their blown up buddy in the back of a pickup, to an afghan hospital after running out of ammo. All the sophisticated equipment left behind is our responsibility. Blaming the ANA is like blaming a 10 year old for losing their gun after you drove off and left them in the woods. It was the President's duty to see that the gvt and military were self-sustainable, before we shutdown our support. Thats the promise America made 15 years ago and its an obligation that comes with the Presidency. Thats how Biden is to blame for this.

  24487. What happened is a perceived victory of identity politics, by the Left, in '08. President Obama won election on his own merits and message, but the radicals, as the election neared, launched a Blitzkrieg campaign of identity and virtue politics. When Obama won, they errantly credited their own efforts and have continued to double down, on every election since. Yes, we remember evil Nazi white supremacist McCain with the robot arms and misogynist slaver Romney who is cruel to puppies. What needs to be clearly understood, is this had nothing to do with Trump, but was already prepacked. Already in 2014, the Internet forums were flooded with '[TO BE ANNOUNCED] is a racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, xenophobic... you name it!' rhetoric. Literally, comments like "Whoever slithers onto the stage, is going to be the most vile racist, homophobic creature from the trailer park sewer, you just know it". What got Trump elected, was the behavior of these people, in believing that they had already won and could drop the facade; their abject contempt and violence toward half the country. What sent them over the edge, was inconceivably losing and getting caught with their molotov in their hand. What continues to drive them faster and harder, over that cliff, is that Trump is a NY Liberal and former Democrat, who uses their own tactics. He's just not playing right; Republicans are expected to stand upright, with a dignity stick up their ass, as they're viciously attacked with the most vile and spiteful, emotionally motivated assaults on their character. Trump responds in kind and they lose the f'n minds.

  24650.  @Jagonath  This conflict is at a critical point. Russia has a definite advantage, but Ukraine has enough accumulated combat power, that if they throw everything they have at the right places and Russia completely screws the pooch, they can deal a reeling blow. However, they're not going to defeat Russia, or push them out. The best they can hope for is to stay alive awhile longer. Russia on the other hand, doesnt need to do much more than withdraw on heavy contact, back to their prepared defensive positions and wait for Ukraine to gas out; because Ukraine doesn't have the resources or manpower to maintain high intensity operations for long enough to just brute force it. Eventually, they'll have to commit their main body of forces somewhere and then hope Russia isnt ready to start taking risks; Russia didnt come to blow stuff up and leave, they're there to stay and are prepared to do this forever . Bottom line, if Ukraine makes all good decisions and Russia makes mostly bad ones, Ukraine can extend the war. If vice versa, Russia has a high potential to force negotiations and end it, by this Fall. In summary, I dont think Russia need to take much more territory. If they do the right things over the next couple months, I think Ukraine will finally come to some sense. I hope everyone does and sees the obvious solution - independent, demilitarized and neutral Donbas, with equal access for both sides. The problem is Kiev has been trying to bomb the villagers and hillbillies out of Donbas for a decade, for a reason and thats not something they're going to just give up. Especially not as long as US/UK are making promises Ukraine's blood has to keep.

  24724.  @ShellyOB1  Thats not entirely correct. Or, rather needs context. I was an analyst for 10 years (297th MI-BN) and we routinely distributed the class of information that was leaked, to press outlets and regional governments; as well as adversary and ally gvts and even to the target itself, anywhere from 30min to 48hrs prior to strikes. It was a deconfliction/nonescalation protocol. The information that was leaked was pretty mundane and benign. The issue is that it was a leak, i.e. unintentionally distributed to someone 'listening in the hallway'. That is a huge issue. Just because it didn't bite them doesn't mean, by any means, that it couldn't or won't next time. Its like, if the daily countersign got leaked, making it through the day with nobody getting jacked up, wouldnt mean it was ok and no big deal. No one seems to be getting this right. The breathless dramatics about 'putting service members at risk' is disingenuous political theater and the shrugging that nothing happened and the information wasnt important anyway, is pure denial and cringy cope. The leak didn't put anyone at risk or reveal anything that we didn't undoubtedly inform every gvt in the region, China and Russia with at least an hour before. The leak merely happening, however, has done severe damage to credibility, public confidence, internal confidence and ally confidence; and has revealed a very serious problem with professionalism and operational security. For my part, having endured a counterintelligence audit when a supervisor left a portable SCIF(kind of like a big hardware encrypted flash drive) in the break room when he was hitting on a subordinate, I would be giving Waltz an industrial colonoscopy to account for every phonecall, txt message, email, internet post, dollar deposited and mile travelled for the past 2 years. Because from my perspective, this doesn't look at all like an 'accident'.

  24826.  @TheBitter73  The only valid measure, is how they are performing against Ukraine. Any objective assessment, will conclude that Ukraine is circling the drain and the only thing keeping them fighting, is constant influx of minimally effective light weapons, from the West. Another key point is the seemingly universal belligerent refusal to acknowledge Russia's actual objectives, in lieu of pathological projection of Western doctrine and motives onto Russia. If your assumption is that Putin is trying to conquer and hold Ukraine, then they indeed are incomp8, bumbling fools that just got their ass kicked. When you accept that the objective was to destroy Ukraine's military and secure the territory from Crimea to Donbas, things look strikingly different. All the propaganda is about Russian losses, while Ukrainian losses aren't even reported. According to Ukrainian gvt, the only thing Russia does is kill women and children, because its afraid to fight Ukrainian men. The point about US capability, is that everyone's analysis, is predicated upon US invasion of Iraq, as a standard. The problem with that is the US didn't invade Iraq, a NATO coalition did and met minimal resistance. Tge biggest challenge they faced, was dealing with the mass surrenders(which they really screwed up by just taking their guns snd sending them home) The occupation? Not so impressive. As well, the invasions of Iraq and Astan, saw more civilian casualties, in the same amount if time, than the Ukraine invasion's civilian + Russian casualties. Not a very proud yardstick. Overall, the point remains that everyone LOL'ng at sTuPiD rUsSiA, is standing on a mountain of Ukrainian bodies to do it and are under the tragically mistaken notion, that some other 'good' (aka Western) country could roll over the Russian Army, by itself, the way NATO did Saddam. The reality is it would be a fucking bloodbath of historic proportion and I sincerely doubt that today's America, could tolerate the casualties they would incur against an actual developed Army that shoots back with comparable weapons.

  24828.  @roblangada4516  Way to completely miss the point. I was in Desert Storm(Army) and Iraq/Astan as a contractor(CSTC-A/NTM-A, NTM-I) and thats not exactly what happened. The first time around, we sat on the border, openly prepping the invasion of Kuwait, for 6 months. We dumped nearly a million troops into Desert Storm from a dozen countries. Against a 3rd World army that was at best 60% strength. Half the tanks we destroyed, were immobile and and practically unarmed, using them as artillery to fire a couple rounds before the crew abandoned it. The reason they invaded Kuwait in the first place, is because they were broke and hungry after fighting Iran. The '03 Iraq invasion met practically no resistance. The biggest fight they put up, were sporadic RPG attacks against tank columns. The Iraqi Army mass surrendered and we just took their rifles and waved them by. We found piles of uniforms littered everywhere, where they just waited until the Americans were out of sight, took off their uniforms and went home. When the insurgent attacks started, things got a lot less fun. Oh and they did wreak fucking havoc on convoys, because the spearhead drove off and left the support elements unprotected. While regular army deaths might have been low, there were a lot of contractor and SF casualties that don't appear in official accounts. One of the main reasons for the low casualties, was the indifference to civilians. There was no tolerance for any blocking tank columns or harrassing soldiers bullshit.

  25638. 'War crime' - effective tactic we can't counter How conveniently selective the amnesia is https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CowOdkKNb0A Lest we also forget that all the MSM networks had their cameras setup in 'safe zones' waiting for the fireworks scheduled for 9PM Central. Remember how you cheered? Remember how impressed and proud you were? There is no 'civilian infrastructure'. Its strategic infrastructure. The entire working population of the country is supporting the war. While they're working to keep the power and communications on, they're not producing war materials, fueling or packing trucks, sending care packages to the front, etc. Command and control cant communicate, has to constantly relocate and bunker and has to take regular headcounts. Its strategically sound to wait until now to do it, because its an urgent matter that cant be ignored and gives the Ukrainians no time to adapt. Note that Russia is only striking substations that are easily repaired. Its to redirect the workforce's efforts to maintenance, instead of production. Knocking out power and communications is standard operational procedure for any military with the capability and anyone who pretends otherwise is being disingenuous. I conducted ISR(ISTAR) for Desert Storm and Noble Anvil and bridges, power grids and comms infrastructure were tier 1 targets that we obliterated on literally day one. Everyone is just mad now, because they've spent the past 7 months lol'ng about how stupid and weak and ineffectual Russia is, because they didn't do this on day 1. You don't have to like Russia, you don't have to like what they're doing, but pretending this isn't legitimate, solid strategy is just dishonest.

The conclusion in the report, was that they didnt have evidence that he, personally, was politically motivated to help Hillary, or hurt Trump. That does, in no way, establish that he wasnt acting in support of anyone elses political motivation, or even that he himself wasnt politically motivated; only that they found no proof, such as they did with 'those two FBI agents'. Now, onto 'those two FBI agents'. The FBI and Mueller 'probes' are a counterintelligence operation. When a COINTELOP discovers a compromised asset, the first order of business, is to service all the seals and check the locks. The operation then proceeds under the 'mousehole' protocol - the 'rat' you see, represents more that you dont. This means your operation is considered to be compromised, until everyone has been vetted. This didnt happen, either with the FBI's or Mueller's operations; the compromised asset was simply swept under the rug; removed and distanced. This in itself, indicates that theyre far more concerned with an image, than finding Truth. BTW, Ive worked in intelligence, and had to endure more than one COINTEL sweep, over trivial shit; 'those two FBI agents' arent trivial shit, they are the rats you see, squeaking and chattering about more that you dont. That should concern you, if you have any integrity. Because you better know that this can happen to someone you like.

  26584.  @iriemon1796  Ukraine lost the war two years ago. Its been nothing but senseless destruction since. They committed and lost 10 - 14 brigades of their best equipped, best trained troops at Bakhmut, against convicts and mercenaries whose losses had little to no effect on the Russian Army's force disposition. It was almost its own separate side war with an ally. Since then, Ukraine has been continuously conscripting and throwing all new brigades of un/under trained troops at the front to plug holes. That was the the first domino in an unstoppable collapse. Since then, Ukraine has made nothing but absolutely stupid and desperate strategic decisions that have completely destroyed their army and cities. Think where they might be now if, instead of LOL'ng at how stupid and desperate Russia is digging defenses because they're scared Ukraine is going to take Russia, they had stopped YOLO'ng across open fields at them and pulled back to dig their own defensive line to launch their Glorious 🤫 February March April May June Counteroffensive from? Or even just not abandoned the Eastern front to send their best trained, most experienced troops and finest Western equipment on a deathmarch into Kursk for the clicks and clout. From the start, Ukraine has made their most critical strategic decisions like a Twitter 5h17post. Remember how Russia was stuck a few miles from their own border, unable to advance and everyone said they weren't doing deep strikes on infrastructure and logistics because they lacked the capability? Then Ukraine attacked the Kerch bridge and still nothing happened? So Zelensky went on Twitter at 1am to troll Putin for his birthday? The missiles haven't stopped falling since and everything with a pipe or cable coming out if it is in ruins. Zelensky is a 12 year old and anyone who cares anything at all about Ukraine besides rooting for their favorite sports team, should want to see him gone

  26998. The first and most important piece of evidence is that Ukraine always knows exactly what kind of missile it was, before the echo from the blast dies. They've dropped dozens of SAM on their own people and always get away with accusing Russia of intentionally targeting civilians. That is pure evil. The only time they didn't get away with it, was the one they sent into Poland and they were about to, until Twitter neckbeards busted the plot. NATO air defenses and ISR knew exactly where it came from in real time, made no attempt to intercept it, kept quiet while Zelensky invoked Article 5 on Poland's behalf and convened an emergency meeting of the NATO General Staff. Then, the internet ruined it. The Kramatorsk missile was unquestionably a Ukrainian missile and appears to have been targeting a Russian civilian settlement; though the target is speculation. In the attack video, like this one, people turn and look in the direction of the incoming and in the reflection of the windows behind them is visible one missile, then another, coming over the pink building across the street, then BOOM and cars on the street side of the station on fire. The missile tail section, which always falls uprange, was on the street side and the serial numbers were aired in an Italian news report. No investigation, Russia did it because they're losing. Its a very well established pattern and for me, is justification to always assume Ukraine is the guilty party, until proven otherwise. Which it never is. 'Russia is still responsible' is a low integrity copout. Thats no different than shooting through the walls in your house and killing your children and saying 'Well, its ultimately the burglar's fault 🤷🏽‍♀️'. That may work with the law or your own weak conscience, but it wont work with your wife, or with God. If Ukraine kills its own people, what makes Russia the bad guy? Maximum effective range of an excuse is 0m.

  27071. 'Juden Verboten' 'Whites Only' Perfect corollary, genius. Of course it wouldnt surprise me, if you tried to make some argument that 'Jews dont count'. You apparently have such bad reading comprehension, you dont understand your own comments - read again. Yes, by YOUR expressed standard of a company 'using tax dollars'(I guess meaning that it exists withing the CONUS), Mattel(a toy company)making a dildo(a type of toy) for a client, as a custom item, is exactly the same as a baker(of cakes) making a (gay themed) cake. If you had familiarized yourself with the particulars, before your little moral superiority lecture, youd understand that a 'wedding cake' is a special order, not a shelf item; they are not being asked to sell a cake, they are being demanded of, to create a to-order variant of a base class of product. BTW, if you had familiarized yourself with your own arguments, before getting morally superior, youd realize why I chose Mattel as an example - lets see if you can redeem yourself and figure out why? Furthermore, the 'cake cases', in question, all included a demand for some direct expression of political speech, either in text, or imagery - like as a gay baker being targeted to make a 'Rick Santorum for President' cake. As for personal service providers, do I really need to step back to your 'is that what you would tell blacks' hyperbole, to make a point about compelling person service? I suppose a gay florist or caterer, is compelled to service a Klan rally, yes? Your argument is that a 'tax benefitting' business(WTF ever that rationalization actually means) may not refuse a client as moral objection. Therefore, the toy producer must produce the toy I demand and the gay tailor must make Klan hoods and the Jew must provide non-kosher sandwiches. Im gay, BTW, so you really need to STFU while a protected class is talking and apologize to the Internet, for your insults against me and appropriation of my strife. Bigot.

  27424.  @LionelLordOfTheThundercats  You must not have been paying attention? Perhaps look back at the past year, at all the false reports, inflammatory language and unsubstantiated accusations CNN has made. For Pete's sake, there is a whole school full of children, whose lives are legitimately in danger as a direct result of the media's 'Fuck Trump' fetish. No one seems to care that Andersen Cooper is a CIA asset, because he says what the sycophants want to hear. Lemon is blatantly racist and constantly defending Leftist violence and racism. Cuomo, is just a useful idiot. I want to like him, because when he interviews, hes actually a good journalist, but when he 'reports', hes like a completely different person; no objectivity, no ring of authenticity, just a corporate hand puppet, selling a narrative. The difference between propaganda and news, is news tell you what happened and leaves you to decide what it means and how to feel. Its usually short and boring. Propaganda informs you in what it means and how to feel about what happened; like week long 24 hour coverage of a misspelled word in a tweet. FOX has plenty of opinion and sensationalism, but they separate it from news reporting, whereas CNN reports opinion and editorial as news, under auspice of fact. For example, when Cooper has a 20 minute segment on a 5 word quote, do you think that is news, or propaganda? Eventually there is going to actually be real violence(like shooting up a bunch of Republicans playing baseball, only worse), as a result of their rhetoric and propaganda and CNN, et al, is going to just shrug and say '1st Amendment'

  28541. I guarantee Democrats have been investigating this since they first heard of it and I guarantee they have more than theyre letting on. What they have probably amounts to nothing, or they wouldve dropped a sack of hammers on him by now. But be assured that they will put off her testimony down to the final moment, then they will drag out her testimony with as many delays, interruptions and timeouts as they can, then a new witness will come forward for the same routine and when everyone has had all of that theyre going to tolerate, a new accuser will come forward to start the whole process again. Theyre not going to do anything big, that forces a withdrawal, because Trump will just throw Barrett at them and have her confirmed in a week. They want to drag it out until they can get control of the Legislature and just deny everything Trump, or as a backup plan they can delegitimize him like theyve done Trump. This is their new goto strategy. Theyve gotten away with it with Trump, so now every appointment or election they lose, theyll delegitimize and endlessly investigate, to neutralize their opponents. As loathsome as it may be in a Free society, the only way to stop this madness, will be to find a way to attach and enforce criminal liability to these tactics. This is a serendipitous moment, because keeping the DoJ and SCOTUS as a political enforcement organ, is precisely what stopping Kavanaugh is about. This has nothing to do with abortion and everything with being able to legislate by judicial fiat and maliciously investigate political rivals to paralyze and delegitimize them.

  28578. Schiff slammed his hand in the drawer. If this were serious and anything but a Democrat oppo project, Schiff wouldn't have been allowed anywhere near the Senate trial. Every time he speaks, he comes off as less and less genuine, more and more desperate and continues to dig the hole deeper and deeper, for himself and the Bidens. Of all the ways to have played this, he has, with his Orange colored tunnel vision, inextricably tied Hunter Biden to Ukrainian corruption. By virtue of the argument he keeps pounding on the table, he has made Hunter Biden a profoundly relevant witness. By virtue of Schiff's argument, it is crucial to the case to show that Biden's involvement with Burisma was legitimate, so as to prove that investigation of Burisma and Biden's role, was not of legitimate national interest. Schiff's self-contradictory arguments about the necessity of only prosecution witnesses, but not witnesses that can potentially disprove his core case, is going to blow up in all their faces. The defendant is who is entitled to certain presumptions, not witnesses. So, to claim moral outrage at the demand for certain witnesses, gives the glaring appearance of something to hide. After all, Hunter Biden's testimony, providing the Biden's have done nothing wrong, could nail Trump's coffin shut. Yet, they are desperate to keep him silent. This is somewhat analogous to a rape case, where the defense claims mutual consent and the prosecution attempts to block the alleged victim's testimony, as 'immaterial', asserting that this is about the accused, not the victim. Really think over that last part - this is about the accused, not the accuser - and imagine sitting as a sworn juror in an actual courtroom and see which case rings as a coverup.

  29080. It hasn't 'failed', its 'failing'. They clearly planned it, substituting their own propaganda for intelligence. They expected the Russians to throw down their guns and run for their lives, under the withering firepower of invincible NATO tanks. This is evident in their employment of massing tactics to lead the initial assaults. For the civilians out there, this means they lead the offensive with tactics designed to jam a bunch of troops into a hole in the lines, before the enemy can react to the breach. This, necessitates there be a hole to jam them into. The only reasonable conclusion, is they expected Russia to simply abandon those positions, without a fight. The only reasonable conclusion to draw from that, is they were high on their own supply about Russian troops being stupid, drunk, untrained, demoralized and unarmed.... as well as just how much better German tanks are, than Russian tanks. Now, they're preparing a 'Roman column'; lining up an entire army and marching it continuously into one battle, like a meat drill. It has the advantage of continuos contact, with continuous troop rotation, against a fixed position that cant break contact to rotate troops, or repair fortifications. The disadvantage is it rapidly depletes combat power and results in massive losses when a breaktrough is achieved and the column finds itself in contact along its length. In order to 'capture' territory against Russian defenses, the attack must penetrate in multiple locations along a wide enough area of the front, to break its mutual support from the flanks and rear. That is, they would need to penetrate multiple belts along a wide enough area, to keep from pocketing themselves. This is a big ask against Russias lines, as they are built on arcs, not lines, where any point on the line, can fire on any other point on the line; and retrograde progressively reinforces the next line. Like a kevlar vest. Right now, Russia is waiting for Ukraine to commit their army to an objective and then they will launch 1 or 2, possibly 3 major offensives, where Ukraine cant redeploy to address it. The result is Ukraine will likely make a spectacular penetration of the lines, capture a big chunk of territory, pump their fists and be gloriously praised all over the Western media, while Russia steamrolls through Kherson and or Kharkiv.

  29292. They are making the worst possible decisions... again. That territory is lost. Its gone and the only way any of it will come back, is humble negotiation. There is no amount of men and weapons that Ukraine can muster to throw at the front, to even inhibit Russia's advance. Bakhmut was the first domino in an unmitigable collapse. They unrecoverably lost 10 - 14 brigades of their best trained, best equipped and most experienced, against convicts and mercenaries. Convicts and mercenaries whose own losses had no impact on the Russian force posture. It was in essence, a private side war, separate from Russia's. Then, Ukraine pressed an offensive with substantially reduced force strength, while Russia simply held while they fortified the rear lines along the entire front. Ukraine should have sacrificed a little bit of territory to retrograde and do the same. Had they done that, it may have actually stopped Russia's advance and forced a negotiation. Instead, everyone, including Ukraine just ROTFFLMFAOOL 🤣😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣😅 at Russia panicking and digging holes because they were afraid Ukraine was going to take Russia with their NLAWS. We don't even need to talk about Glorious February March April May June Counteroffensive. Now, they're stripping their deep defenses for pickets against a bulldozer. If Ukraine keeps this course, Russian planes are going to be over Ukrainian cities in a month. Inept Soviet legacy leadership and childish intransigence has been devastating for Ukraine. From late 2022, they've had all their eggs in the p r o p a g a n d a basket fighting a Twitter war, expecting NATO to jump in any moment and whip Russia like Desert Storm (a disturbing number of people really do think Russia is weaker than Iraq). They've doubled down on that so many times, they are so deep in a hole they cant see the top. So, they just keep on digging, hoping to break through the bottom.

  29613.  @MrPoooch  There is no contextual mitigation for his bread line remarks; he was defending Soviet Communism. It applies now, as it is pursuant to the same circumstances of mass unemployment. Raising minimum wage is a faulty policy, from first principle. Minimum wage, is not, nor ever was, intended to be a 'living wage'. It is a wage paid to people learning how to work a job, kids working for party money and unskilled, imminently replaceable and or unnecessary workers. Unfortunately, some people do have to live on it, but there are plentiful public assistance programs and benefits to supplement their wages. I don't need anyone to bring me my plate, I pay someone to do it, as a convenience. If the price is too high, I do it myself. This is the root of the maxim that we cannot become prosperous, doing each other's laundry. The ultimate goal of a minimum wage employee, is supposed to be a more productive job with more responsibility, not simply more money. The ethics of minimum wage aside, cost of living, is primarily driven by minimum wage industries, ie. cashiers and shelf stockers, etc. When these wages increase, the prices of retail goods, also rise. The only way to mitigate that, is to fix prices, which I hope we can agree, is a no go, in just about every possible aspect. In short, you cant simply give the bottom rung more money. I spent 6 years in the Army, giving blood and body parts to my country; then spent almost 17 of the 20 following years working my ass off, sacrificing and going without(including living in a tent for two tears), to earn a MA(have never worked in my studied field) and a couple STEM AAS degrees. My first 'real' job, with my first tech degree, paid ~$20/hr. Im not making a whole lot more now, considering what I put into it. Im not rich, Im not even upper-middleclass. Im a wage slave. So, will I get a comparable wage adjustment, to reflect my efforts, my value to society and my irreplaceability, in the workplace? If my wages go up, then the price of my industry's products also go up. Now, we are looking at production cost increase, plus retail price increase. The economy is an overunity system that tries to output more than is input. Its an exceedingly delicate equilibrium that has taken centuries to stabilize and can go tits-up, at a hard glance. TL;DR Min wage employees don't need or deserve more money, we need to find productive jobs for them, that provide value to society, so those menial positions are available for new workers learning how to be productive.

  29997. +Attila the Fun Its not really that hypocritical, rather its a solid, time tested Left strategy. You may note of voting records, that Democrats often publically denounce a Republican position, while lending just enough Democrat votes, or abstentions for it to pass. This way, they get to support a position and ensure it becomes policy, while blaming the Right, for its consequences. The Left also employs a tactic of introducing completely outrageous and untenable propositions, with a minor social initiative attached, as an indictment, or vice versa, a popular proposal with an attached spoiler. An example might be a completely unpassable regulation bill, with a free school lunches provision for minority children - 'see, those evil racist Republicans want brown babies to starve'. Its not even a secret - its actually taught in practically every political sciences course. This is a large part of why Democrats have lost the government, at every level and are going to lose the rest of their power, if they dont get it together. Liberals are fed up with identity politics and dichotometric partisanship. Progressives have, in typical Millennial fashion, taken all they can get their hands on and given nothing back. Theyve exploited and completely used up every bit of true progess Liberalsim has made, over the last century, with their entitlement complex. They took daddy's sensible family sedan, that he worked a lifetime for and blew the engine, seeing how fast itll go with all their friends smoking weed, in the backseat. Liberals are deserting the Democrats like a burning barn... they need to bar the door behind them and let the Progressives burn with it.

  30615. You know there was the rape/murder case in Texas in the late 80s. A woman jogging in a park, was dragged into the woods, assaulted and murdered. The prime suspect worked at a restaurant she went to. When interviewed, the suspect produced an alibi. There was only evidence of one perpetrator, but the alibi held tight and did not himself, have an alibi, so this revealed to the police, that the suspect had a partner, because there was no doubt that the suspect was their perpetrator. The family of the victim was skeptical, so the police reassured her parents, with a minutely detailed description of an hour long ordeal of their taking turns repeatedly raping, torturing and making their daughter beg for her life, before murdering her. Well, the evidence and story presented in court, was that the entire attack lasted about 5 minutes and her death was probably accidental, but they did convince the parents that the two suspects were guilty, so it didnt really matter that the story changed to 'just what we can prove' in court. Seeing the airtight case against them, the suspect takes a plea deal to avoid the needle and spills his guts about how they planned it as a robbery, but the alibi, was the real mastermind and decided to rape and torture her; he just went along with it and took a couple turns, because he was scared of his partner. Long story short, two vicious animals, devoid of any Human qualities or consideration, are taken off the street and put away for life without parole. Except... that after serving 13 years of a life sentence for rape/torture/murder, the Innocence Project cleared them as neither one even remotely possibly being the perpetrator. Well, despite having their conviction vacated after a 10min hearing with the new evidence and the DA declining to pursue a new case, in order to officially have their names cleared, the lead investigator and prosecutor of the case must give an official statement that they now believe the defendants are not the perpetrators. So, faced with an overturned conviction, based upon getting a suspect to testify against the alibi, under threat of death; and DNA evidence not remotely matching either party, the sheriff and DA had the tough job of manning up and publicly announcing that... waaaaaiiiit for it... they had made an unforgivable mistake and let the third partner get away to rape, torture and murder, unknown numbers of young girls, for the past 13 years. Theres a moral to this story. I wonder if anyone has the morals to recognize it?

  30897.  @HereComeMrCee-Jay  People really need to get their heads around the fact that Russia has different laws, different force structure and different doctrine, from the US. Russia is sandbagging in Ukraine. 'Special Military Operation' is not a euphemism, it is a legal constraint on the number and types of troops and equipment they can deploy, without a formal declaration of war. They don't maintain a fully constituted standing army the way the US does. Generally speaking, only officers and specialists are full-time professional soldiers. Recruits train through the standing units for about a year and go directly to reserves; like if the US sent everyone home after AIT. This allows them to maintain a very large minimally trained force, for rapid mobilization. This is why the invasion force was so disproportionately officer heavy; and they lead with their oldest, least sophisticated equipment. Not because 'lol they just make everyone a colonel'. Its also why their force strength has been kept to around 150k and they haven't made extensive use of their air force or ballistic missiles; or attacked strategic infrastructure in the interior of the country. The SMO restricts targeting to military assets directly engaged with Russian forces. For example, if they observed weapon shipments entering the country, they couldn't target them until they reach a distribution point that has deployed weapons to the battlefield. Same for training facilities and infrastructure. This is why Ukraine still has power and phones and bridges, etc. The real danger fir Ukraine, is that Russia will declare the SMO completed with the annexation of Donbas and restructure for a ATO(Anti-Terrorist Operation), which will basically throw out any notion of ROE and allow unrestricted targeting of leadership and infrastructure and permit more extensive use of strategic weapons, such as high altitude bombing, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles.

  31168.  @2xkiller  Ohhhh, good try.... goooood try. But google won't help you. I challenged you for your maths, not Google's formulae. I should've also mentioned I have a AAS in Piping Design (that's an engineering discipline). Basic trig is all that's required for this problem. The formulae you cited, are only necessary to calculate impact energy, after deflection; neither of which are applicable to your assertion (see what you did there 🤦). Try again, this time fill in the numbers? You know, projectile mass, muzzle velocity, ballistic coefficient, distance to target, PBR, 'shoot on slope' corrections, etc. And dont skimp on the details, like how you calculated all the angles and distances, etc. As former 35F, I look forward to your presentation😉 'Anyone with experience with this equipment wouldn't make that claim' '89 - '95 513th MI-BDE. Following the ceasefire and official end of hostility, I was assigned to a survey and inspection team, documenting targets hit with precision ordnance, including TLAM, AGM84E, Paveway and GBU variant guided weapons. That project saw more ground action(and casualties) than the infantry did during the 'war'. My first three way, was with Iraqi security forces and Iraqi rebels - Abdul tried to stop our leaving a site with documents and swabs, while a half dozen rebels outside, tried to do everyone inside. 10 man team: myself, a guy from ONI, a 'civilian observer'(definitely a spook), a 'civilian analyst'(pretty sure from Raytheon) and 6 man SF escort. We rolled in 2 Vs and a deuce. I started with a M16A2 'Destroyer of Worlds' 5.56mm, Gas Operated, Magazine Fed, Machine Rifle and finished with the first iteration of the M4 Carbine; a shortened A2 upper, on a complete A1 lower. '05 - '06, 08 NTM-I '08 CSTC-A '09 - '10 NTM-A '11 NTM-I Iraq - hated the place, liked the people Astan - loved the place, despised the people To present Circuit contractor for domestic and foreign military/LE force dev; TCLEOSE/TCOLE; CRSO(12 years); assistant armorer(4 years). Ya just never know who you're bullshitting on the Interwebz, do you?

  31625.  Ashitaka  The key is where and when they saw these things; and their own clearance to get answers. There were a number of reports associated with 'stealth' test flights, where the craft were intentionally exposed to defense facilities and other aircraft, as ORE(Operational Readiness Exercise). People did see it and did report it, but had no clearance to get answers about it, so were given BS and waived off. Id have to assume that many 'UFO' sightings are of a similar nature. In fact, at the time Lazar allegedly worked at Groom Lake(S4, is the USAF designation for maintenance division) there were a number of 'stealth' aircraft being intensively tested. If you apply what we now know, as a filter for his story, it seems almost certain that he saw some things he wasnt meant to, or was a bit too loose lipped about the nations biggest secret since the atomic bomb and so they fed him a bunch of crazy disinfo, to seal off a security threat. Even if the technical stuff he claimed, were true, there is zero reason they would've given him unnecessary information about aliens and where they're from and everything else. I mean, this stuff has become so commonplace that everyone has forgotten how shocking it was when it was revealed... https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--EUjqPOyo--/c_scale,f_auto,fl_progressive,q_80,w_800/tamgetc0rzz5mczqkwmj.jpg https://thumbs-prod.si-cdn.com/P-BQbwYGZXVbNy-w5UBy8WtfniI=/420x240/https://public-media.si-cdn.com/filer/f6/34/f634cd4a-3de5-4fb4-814f-dc58e3ccaf04/stealth-pilots-billboard.jpg https://cdn.japantimes.2xx.jp/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/f-b2mission-a-20171030.jpg

  31822. +The True Texan American Its all torture. You dont get to dismiss it, until youve sampled it. Sleep dep, food aversion, water boarding, etc., is fucking torture. Ive done it and without some sort of intensive training, 24 hours of lights on and off, with the same verse of a song playing on seamless loop, theres nothing you wont say or do for 5 minutes of silence in the dark. Waterboarding is evil. Even if you understand what it is(which I doubt you do), unless you've done it, you dont get to call it 'alternative methods'. Of course we dont know what we dont know, but to my knowledge, there hasnt been any justifiable applications of torture. If torturing someone would stop a 9/11, thats probably justifiable, but no less inhumane or acceptable in a civilized world. But no, torture to obtain tactical intelligence, or locations of HVT, is NOT justifiable. I understand how politicians, who have never really experienced violence, can look at things like sleep dep and think its nothing, but anyone who has been close to this stuff, damned well knows better. LE gets away with things all the time, that would be considered torture, in conduct of war. They get away with it, because people minimalize and rationalize it as benign. They snatch up some teenager, put them in a room on a hard chair, for 10+ hours tag teaming them with all the ways theyre going to get that needle into their arm and the only way to save their own life is to confess... thats torture, no different than spinning a revolver cylinder and then putting to their head - click! click! Youre running out if time, your buddy is telling us everything, let me help you? click!

  32083. ​​​ @nickhutt6264  Not really. In WWII, propaganda exploited core values and common national interests. The Axis had to be defeated, because they were tough and smart and determined. When the won, it was motivation to fight harder. When they lost, it was because we were supermen. We no longer have any shared values, so the propaganda targets what our society does have; narcissism, entitlement to success and exemption from accountability. The enemy is stupid and weak and demoralized and does nothing but lose lol 🤣🤣😁😂😂😅😅🤣. Which is why any loss or failure is impossible to process. Take Bakhmut, for example. Instead of losing a hard battle, to a tough, smart, determined enemy, Kiev sent 10s of 1000s of their most glorious heros to be uselessly butchered by a stupid hotdog vendor with a shovel and left rotting in the puddle of shit everyone has been flinging for a year. People are still doubling down and haven't learned yet that propaganda blows back, like gas. What you say of the other side, is the standard by which you measure your own success and failure. So when you lose to a stupid, demoralized, incompetent, unarmed, retreating enemy, all that shit blows back all over your own side. Prigozhin understands that well and made Wagner look that much stronger by honoring his defeated enemy as glorious heros doing their duty for their people. NATO, MSM and all their brainwashed sycophants, have reduced Ukraine's fallen, to useless trash to be swept under the rug and denied as an embarrassment.

  32469. Ok, Im going to defend Trump here just a little bit. Yes, hes an adult and President and should be able to handle things like this a bit better. But, his frequent double downs without clarification, are oppositional defiance of an institutionally dishonest media that, as he put it 'since he came down the escalator', has without exception hyperbolized and wilfully malinterpreted every single word he says. So, hes just being petulant and not getting sucked into expending all his time and attention to endlessly explaining and defending his every word like he did last time. I am the same way about arguing with dishonest people. When I first heard the Gaza thing, I was a bit aghast too. But, after thinking some about how he speaks and thinks and his background in real estate, it made a lot more sense. Still not a fantastic idea and somewhat shortsighted, but my take is that he sees Gaza as an unlivable post apocalyptic wasteland. So, he wants the US to act as a guardian of sorts to take responsibility and restore it while regional partners put up the residents until they can return. Then build a great big beautiful privacy wall with a great big door in it. Just like you would do during renovation of a NYC hirise apt. Its an intriguing Humanitarian proposition that would necessitate unprecedented Middle East cooperation. It could be a Renaissance project, or a catastrophe. But, if he could get the whole region to cooperate on it, that would stand to substantially stabilize the entire Middle East. Exactly the opposite of America's typical Freedom from Above and Precision Guided Democracy. But, again, hes unnecessarily alarming the people he means to help, by stubbornly refusing to explain himself to the media.

  32971. Half right. The Kharkiv region's strategic value is greatly exaggerated. When Russia was taking it months ago, no one thought it was that important and Ukraine made no significant attempts to retake it; which is why defenses were light or non existent. Kherson is important which is why they threw thousands of men into a grinder trying to take it. US intelligence simply served them up a consolation prize by telling them which objectives were minimally defended, or outright abandoned and Ukraine just walked in. Right now the front is fully open and impossible to defend, so Ukraine just pressured the entire front and penetrated the soft spots. However, in a few weeks, the weather is going to close it and restrict movement to a handful of improved roads and narrow corridors that whomever occupies those positions, will have to supply and reinforce by. Those restrictive routes dramatically shorten the killchain, making occupying forces very easy to find and fix. Russia took the region to begin with, by backing off to deep defensive positions and just hammering the dogshit out of those routes with artillery and missiles, until reinforcement stopped coming. Then they just walked in. I anticipate Ukraine will try to hold out until winter and then vacate those positions too and just attempt to deny it to Russian reoccupation. The real problem for Ukrainian forces, is that when winter sets in and stabilizes the lines and fixes Ukrainian forces, Russia is going surge 20-30k troops and new uprated equipment into their rear fortifications, while beating on all those positions and routes with artillery and airstrikes. This will bring their troop strength up to ~90% of the initial force, but with better equipment and an established foothold.

Been to the best and worst places in the world and you really can take my word for it, when I tell you that taking things away from people, has ZERO effect on their committment and ability to harm others. Whether you realize it or not, you are making the argument that incident X, would not have ocurred, had the perpetrator not had access to their weapon of choice. There is not only no evidence to support such an argument, but countless points in evidence, to contradict it. Take this Vegas shooting, for example; the perpetrator was apparently prepared to use a bomb, but chose the rifle, for whatever reason. So then, for a moment, imagine even a modest, man portable bomb, in such an environment. Deaths may or may not have been greater or less, but the non fatal injuries would have been devastating and the panic greater. The Aurora shooter, was prepared to chain the doors and use fire; how would that have affected the casualty count? There are a plethora of other examples of rampage murderers and or terrorists using alternate and even mundane weapons to create mass casualties, in regions where firearms were difficult to obtain. You can say 'we have to do SOMETHING' and I get that, but just doing 'SOMETHING' without a rational imperative, is both ineffective in solving the problem and abusive to everyone who is not the problem. In the US, we have the inalienable Right to arm ourselves. The well documented intent of that Right, being for Citizens to have parity, with the common soldier. That means civilians have a Right to possess high performance, militarily useful rifles and body armor. The Constitution details an estabilished, legal, tried and true method of changing this condition, but no one has used it.

  33545. Machineguns should be 'easier' to get, but absolutely NO to just walking out of Academy with one. Ive had enough neighbors to know that I don't want them having machineguns, when they hear a bump in the night, or go on a bender. Take my current neighbor, for example. Ive called the cops on him, no joke, about 50 times for shooting across the fence, onto my property; drunken donuts in his backyard shooting out the window of his truck; beating on the door with the butt of his shotgun after his wife locked him out and jacking off rounds in the air; ramming the side of his house, repeatedly with his truck, after his wife locked him out and screaming 'get out here bitch, Im gonna blow your fuckin head off!'; spotlighting me in my own yard at night, knowing hes drunk and has a fucking gun on me. On and on and no one does anything, because hes a local businessman. Now, should that motherfucker be able to get a machinegun? Well, you might say he shouldn't have any guns, but he does and if it were that easy to get a machinegun, he would have one of those, too. Besides that, most people can barely control their semiauto rifle. Why does the noob go on point? If you watch too many movies, you think its because hes worth less and gets to take the first hit. To the contrary, its because you dont want the 19 year old standing behind you with a Goddamned machinegun, the first time shit gets loud. The Infantry doesnt even use full auto. DoD has been studying since Vietnam, how to limit soldiers to semiauto, until authorized. If the military could issue autofire on demand, you had better believe semiauto would be GI.

  34080.  @HonorWrought  Because A) that would happen and B) US would be all on its own. Ok, so, that would also be fairly quick. I have to assume you're talking about a conventional attack, for there to be any utility in the argument. The US is huge, with assets pretty evenly diffused throughout the continent and a significant stationed and deployed force, all around the world, within hours reach of any location on Earth. Long before an attack, they would have to make overt movements that would put NATO on high alert. That massive mobilization has a massive price tag in every aspect, not the least of which is vulnerability. The US alone, has enough raw firepower, to decimate such a force with a first strike. Baghdad 'Shock and Awe' was planned for 3 - 5 days, at that intensity, at dozens of targets around the country. UK and Germany said they wouldn't have any part of it, so it was scaled back to a few hours over Baghdad, to save the coalition. The first month of the Iraq War, was just disposing of old munitions. I was MI in the Gulf War and yes, the Iraqi military was no match for anyone, but no one wouldve faired significantly better against the weaponry and tactics employed. We know the Iraqi ADS were functional and accurate, because they were shooting at the bombs coming off the F117s. TLAM and Harpoons were unstoppable. I worked with a survey team that documented cruise missile targets. We saw structures in heavily defended areas hit multiple times, from multiple directions, with foot-scale precision. We saw structures reduced to rubble and no significant damage to its neighbors. TL;DR Zero chance of pulling off a sneak attack and the US could deliver such a punishing initial blow, it wouldn't be worth trying it. Dude, the Sandbox is the US screwing around and trying to fight a war without hurting anyone's feelings.

  34240. +Ronald Reed So did SA, China, NK, Canada, UK, Germany, Israel. Likewise, the US meddled in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Canada, UK, Germany, Russia, Croatia, Ukraine, Egypt, Lybia, Burma, Morocco, France, Greece, Turkey, etc. To understand the 'Russia' narrative, you need to understand the institutional false dichotomy of the Left, in particular, President Obama and Secretary Clinton. A couple prime examples: President Obama was slumping in the poles, so he and Hillary concocted the strategy of attacking Lybia, because Reagan attacked Lybia and skyrocketed in popularity. Conservatives = Republicans and Republicans love Reagan, therefore Conservatives must love Obama for attacking Lybia, or theyve betrayed Reagan and are therefore hypocrites. Likewise, Reagan hated Russians, therefore Conservatives must hate Russians, therefore Republicans must love Hillary, because Russians tattled on her. President Obama also employed this 'Reagan did it' strategy in his gun control initiatives and Hillary attempted it in numerous issues, during the 2016 campaign. The problem here, is that its all a projection of the DNC's own sins. The Republican Party is an open party, welcoming anyone of any ideology to put an R by their name and let the voters decide if they represent the Party. In contrast, the DNC employs ideological purity tests and administratively controls who may campaign as a Democrat. Hence the term 'unified party'. In other words, Republicans, Libertarians and Independents are allowed to disagree, but Democrats are not; and that is why the 'Russia' narrative has abjectly failed, everywhere but in the echochamber. Furthermore the Democrats, constrained by that echochamber, are unable or unwilling to look ahead to the next election cycle and the standard theyve set for discrediting people. If you thing 2016 was ugly, just wait until the 'Russian connection' standard is applied to Democrats. They still havent adapted to the Information age and expect their constituents to hear only what they tell them. Thats why theyve lost over a thousand popular elections in the past 6 years. The overarching point being that 'Russian collusion' is nonsense, because even if everything that is speculated is true, none of it is illegal and none of it is anything that every President since Roosevelt and a majority of the more prominent Reps and Senators havent done... including the last President. Its merely a play on the 'Reagan hates Russia' dichotomy, in an attempt to taint the Trump Presidency. Its a political feces fling.

  34341. Its not vindictive, its disciplinary. Different things. I was required to maintain a TS/SCI clearance for 10 years as an analyst and it was made very clear that it could and would be revoked, along with my job, for inappropriate behavior. Exploiting the status and or benefits of your clearance to propagate an unsanctioned information operation, would fall squarely under that condition. As for holding clearance beyond end of service, that's complete and utter nonsense. That's a self-enrichment scheme people cooked up for themselves decades ago, to keep a foot in the door and keep themselves in the loop to maintain influence; the epitome of 'deepstate'. I was called in 3 different times at the outset of GWOT, for review and brief on some combat assessments I did for, at the time, classified weapon systems during Desert Storm and Noble Anvil. New weapons that had only been used a couple times before and they just wanted to talk to someone with first hand knowledge. I was an ideal choice because I had tasked them, performed BDA afterwards and wrote performance assessments (at different times over a 10 year period). At the time they brought me back, I was into some different things that would've complicated a security clearance, so I was issued what we called a 'day pass'; a temporary, limited access clearance high enough to eyes only anything they needed to talk to me about and expired when I left the building. A little surreal, but not all that unexpected to need a clearance to review reports that I had written. Especially when I recalled them from memory in greater detail than they wanted. We did that all the time, when I was in. Its the same way Reps and Senators get SCIF access, or read into certain programs. So, the claim that people need to keep their clearances to brief successors, is blatant boolshehut. There is zero legitimate reason for anyone not actively employed and or working on legitimate operations, to have a clearance 'just in case'.

  34438.  @kurousagi8155  Again, not true. Kharkiv was defended by militarized police units(like SWAT) and local militia. They pulled out without heavy engagement or casualties and Ukrainian forces chased them all the way to their rear defensive lines, where they took 40 - 60% casualties before withdrawing to Kharkiv. Now, Ukrainian defenses in Kharkiv and Donetsk have been depleted to reinforce Bakhmut. Russia has trickled large numbers of armor into Donetsk for the past couple of months, but they haven't been committed to any fighting, so they're just dispersed around the AO. Russia has been conducting probing operations around the Donetsk lines and exposed substantial softening. They made their move in Soledar and are starting to push harder at Bakhmut, as a result of disrupted Ukrainian logistics. There are a substantial force of Russian regular and special forces in the Bakhmut rear lines. The past 3 large scale airstrikes, Ukraine has been unable or unwilling to restore power beyond 50%, indicating taxed logistics. Russia hasn't been targeting power generation, rather power distribution. Specifically substations, which have a predictable repair time and cost, making it a good measure of their capabilities. Their failure to fully restore power 3 times in a row, Bakhmut AO falling apart and softened lines at Donetsk, are a go signal for a new phase, which is why Russia has shifted their leadership from an air combat General, to an armor and maneuver expert. My projection is when Bakhmut starts to tip over, the massed force in the rear is going to overrun it, coupled with a minor offensive in Kharkiv, to try and draw more forces away Donetsk, for a major maneuver and attempt at breakthrough.

  34477. Yeah, Europe and North America are not the world, bro. The overwhelming majority of the Human race, is against NATO and its interests; and specifically against US and UK. You don't need to believe them, you just need to be prepared. Because, the rest of the world isnt sitting around anymore, waiting for their special delivery of Freedom from above and precision guided Democracy. Theres a very real chance that we're a generation or less, away from seeing a 'coalition of the willing' to disarm the US. You just think it cant happen, because we haven't fought an industrialized adversary, with an actual military, in 4 generations. The moment a F16 arrives in Ukraine, China is going to hand Russia a menu and start a tab. China will be very interested in studying and shooting down F16s. Once that door opens, they're not going to limit their engagement, to standing around on the porch. Then, China can run NATO into the ground, just like we did USSR... and make America pay for it. And if we get too uppity, China can show everyone what real sanctions look like. Provoke China just a little bit more and Taiwan is gone. China will send a txt message and half of Taiwan's defense forces will turn off their equipment and walk away. Then, theyll surround the island in hours and swallow Taiwan like a baby octopus. There will be no aid. There will be no weapons. There will be no Taiwan. And the only thing NATO could do about it, is cry to the UNSC, so the whole world can watch Russia, China, the ME, and half of South America, say 'Womp-womp'

  34491.  @downix  Fictitious numbers. For some context, my background is former 513th MI-BDE/297th MI-BN (BDA; ISR/RSTA; Combat Assessment) Operations: Desert Storm, Southern Watch, Gothic Serpent (SIGINT), Noble Anvil. Special Projects: Backstage (Desert Storm/Southern Watch); Roundhammer (Noble Anvil) I performed RSTA for F117 and B2 mission planning in Iraq and Yugoslavia(air defense and terrain mapping). Mission packages have crazy flight plans, not just for the wild snakey vector changes, but with aerobatic type maneuvers such as wing tipping and dives/climbs at preplanned waypoints, to present the plane's lowest aspect to enemy RADAR. Your perceptions of 'stealth' are a fantasy, as is DoD's public facing threat assessments; all I should need to say to make that particular point is 'mobile anthrax labs' and 'yellowcake'. But if thats not enough, just remember Iraq's 'largest armor force in the world' and 'densest, most modern air defense in the hemisphere', etc. Which was all broken down, shot up junk, out of fuel, crews and ammo from them and Iran tuning each other up for a decade. Yemen's air defenses are routinely penetrated by conventional aircraft, because their arsenal consists of scattered, non-integrated short and midrange assets with coverage gaps like swiss cheese. The B2 was chosen for this operation for two reasons: 1) mission duration, altitude and standoff range; so it wouldn't come within range of ADS 2) optics. We're still trying to scare everyone with 'stealth' like its the 80s. Stealth is a magic trick and everytime you do it, exponentially increases the risk youll blow it and get caught. Just like happened in Yugoslavia. That wasn't luck, someone figured out the trick and burned us. What we believe happened is they had moved a number of short range ADS into the RADAR gaps we had been exploiting and used forward observers to report attack aircraft sorties. Then estimated flight time and started strobing all their RADARs on and off until they made contact. Why we dont fly stealth missions, rather fly in observable mode with the RADAR reflectors deployed, whenever adversary RADAR is operating, is to prevent adversaries from compiling a RADAR profile. Remember when Turkey got booted from the F35 program for operating Russian ADS? TL;DR there is exactly zero chance they flew a solo stealth mission against Yemen's bad joke of an air defense network, in an area where it would be exposed to adversary search RADAR from multiple directions. It was a publicity stunt.

  34700. ​ @unbreakable7633  And just think how differently Afghanistan would've gone, if they had capable air defenses. Desert Storm is an illusion and you people really need to end your victory lap for it. I was there - 513th MI-BDE/297th MI-BN. I performed ISR/RSTA; BDA and Combat Assessment. I worked on the operational planning for the 'Left Hook', air defense and geo mapping for F117 strikes and onsite BDA for PGMs, after the ceasefire. The 'mechanized army' you're talking about was junk. They didn't invade Kuwait for resources because they were strong and doing swell. 40% of the armor we wrecked was non deployable by US Army standards. They had broken hydraulics, faulty electrical, worn out engines and drivetrains, low or no fuel and ammo. Their air defenses were in the same condition. They were popping antipersonnel canister shot 3 or 4 times its effective antipersonnel range, at Challengers because they didn't have any anti armor ammo. They rolled until they ran out of gas, fired the few rounds they had and abandoned their vehicle to get banged by an Apache or A10. They had a large number of their tanks parked on berms as artillery pieces, because they were immobile and or couldn't operate the turrets. Entire companies surrendered for a MRE and a bottle of water. We processed hundreds of prisoners with uniforms literally rotting off their bodies like castaways. We didn't win in Korea and lost in Vietnam. China and India throw rocks at each other on the border, but sure, Indians throw rocks better so that will certainly be an advantage when China opens up with artillery from the mountains and sends 1000s of drones. You should really pay attention to US aircraft absentee ratios before talking about other air forces. China's 'blue water navy' is better than it needs to be. They aren't trying to threaten every nation on the planet with it, only secure their own. And you have apparently not been paying any attention, China has the most powerful ships ever conceived, that can cripple your country at anchor in port. FA with China and youll FO what real sanctions are and how they work when you're begging for them to invade in 3 months, just to bring you stuff. Want a preview of war with China? Go round your house and gather up everything with a made in China component or material and throw it in the trash. Just be careful not to accidentally divide by zero trying to throw your Chinese trashcan into your Chinese trashcan. We spent 6 months assembling a million man NATO+ army on Iraq's doorstep to kick 100k starving, ill equipped Iraqis out of Kuwait, that tried to run away when it got loud. You people really need to quit thinking thats something to thump your chest about. That hubris is what directly led to the disasters in Iraq and Afghanistan. None of you are learning anything from Ukraine either, because you're too high on the p r o p a g a n d a. War is about pain and you astonishingly think you have a higher tolerance for pain and privation than Russians and Chinese.

  34886. Um... ok. Well, your point is valid, but that's not really the question she was asking. It goes to math, like music, being a pure concept; an imagination. As thus, it is not real, but just something we daydreamed up, to describe the physicality of things. Now, heres where the assumptions come into play. We assume that math 'exists', because we get the right answers about the Universe, with it and we have all our math-based technology. But, thats only an assumption, that the answers are correct, because we have no one else's system to compare. Really wrap your head around using math to make computers, to do more math that you could never do in a lifetime worth of lifetimes. But, what if at its core, its just a cloudgazing fantasy and has actually been holding humanity back from the Universe? I mean, we used to think the stars, were backlit holes in a physical veil over the world. We still had the same brain structure and mental capacity then, so whether math is real or imaginary, it was already there. And here we are, still making up stories about the Universe and things we can never actually examine and using the language of math to tell them. As for history, not its not real, either. It is creative deduction(kinda like that other thing). If an artifact is not in possession, ie if you cant measure it, then the thing never existed/happened. Conversely, think about the amount of evidence you produce that proves your existence. Now imagine out of all that, for all the people you've ever come into contact with, one of their boss' notebook is found in 500 years. The story that notebook tells about you is 'history'. Archaeology is fun, but it requires a special kind of arrogance to take it seriously.

  35007. No, where it all started coming off the rails was when Zelensky pulled out his photo album and stuck it in Trump's face and started his charity routine. You can see Trump is angry. This is because they tried to sign this trade deal days earlier but Zelensky insisted on doing it at the White House, because his plan was to get Trump in front of a camera and shake him down for more weapons. He knew the terms of the deal they had agreed to and came to the White House under false pretenses, with no intention of signing it. Its a rehearsed routine hes done every time he meets a Western leader in their Capitol. He expected Trump to give him the room to do his little presentation, while Trump sits somberly shaking his head and saying how horrible Putin is, before praising him as the savior of the free world and pledging whatever it takes for Ukraine to win. That didn't work, so he turned to threatening consequences for America if he didn't get what he wanted. That is when Trump had enough of him. Everyone also seems to have missed Zelensky huffing and calling Vance 'suka' because he wasn't getting his way. Zelensky obviously didn't get the message, because they kicked him out of the White House and then he and Lindsey Graham went on air to say they were done with him because he can't be trusted and they cant deal with him and they can't move forward until hes gone. I don't think people have realized what just happened. Ill be surprised if Zelensky is still in power in 2 weeks, because you know his Generals are thinking they can act like an adult and make a deal with Trump. The only reason they've let him stay in power till now, is because he has been able to beg money off everyone.

  35823. The Abrams that are going to Ukraine are going to be a purpose fitted, medium intelligence 'Ukraine' variant that may have a different engine and possibly a different gun; and stripped down to basic, simple systems. But, they will still be a tin can. People expecting Western tanks to outperform Russian tanks are going to be tragically disappointed. The reason Russian/Ukrainian tanks are blowing up, isn't anything to do with an autoloader, or 'weak armor' or any other 'design flaw'. Its because they're loaded to the gills with HE ammo. All the 'blowout' protections are to prevent overpressuring the compartment in a propellant cookoff with kinetic rounds. They're not carrying kinetic rounds, because they're not engaging other tanks as a primary. If a magazine full of HE gets penetrated, its going to go up like Hiroshima, regardless of what hemisphere it was built in. All of these tanks were designed and built when ATGM were a crew served special weapon. Now, everyone can individual mobile a weapon capable of, at the minimum, disabling any tank on the battlefield. Neither Leopard, Abrams, Challenger, T72, or T90 will stand up to ATGM or artillery. The only existing tank that can possibly operationally survive a tandem charge missile or artillery strike, is the T14 and theres simply not enough of them to be deployable. Any talk of 'using them wrong', is just Monday morning quarterbacking. Ukraine has been a denied airspace since very early on and without air support, tanks can't be used 'right'.

  36023.  @LeechyKun  Examine and compare key objects, like vehicles and launch gantries. Of course the Google image is lower resolution, but not that much lower. Google does have slightly higher rez images than that, depending upon location and public interest in the target. When examining key structures on the Iranian image, we can determine a resolution of around 10cm(4 in) - shadow edges, windows, doors, vehicle wheels, etc. Right now, international treaty limits native realtime imaging, to 25cm rez, but enhanced static images not regulated and are commercially available at <13cm. In any case, the image that everyone is so outraged about, is only slightly more detailed than what is typically released for circulation (they usually release Google comparable images); and is nowhere near the limits of US imaging capability, which is widely known to be <7cm; theoretical limit for good atmospheric conditions, is around 50mm(size of atmospheric eddies, known as 'air cells' - the wavy distortion you see in the distance) for realtime imagining, so it can be assumed that the US has pretty close to that capability. The newer generation of satellites almost certainly have the capability to precisely aim multiple sensors at the same target, to achieve synthetic aperture imaging of considerably less than 50mm. Essentially, two things have everyone hot and brothered about this and neither are of any consequence: First and foremost - ORANGE MAN VERY, VERY BAD! Secondarily, for those who actually think a little more deeply into it - the image seems unusually detailed because its in monochrome (probably originally in IR) and its from lower than usual angle, affording more shadowing and thus higher contrast than what is familiar to the average person. However, this has nothing to do with with the per pixel resolution of the image. In essence its just better photographic composition than what people are accustomed to; not necessarily better technical imaging.

  36237.  @mikester9er  Makes perfect sense. When Sen. Obama's campaign hit the Red Zone and started the mad play for those last few votes, they started the 'You have to vote for Obama, or your a racist' and 'My opponent is a Nazi' strategy. Obama won on his own merits, but the radicals believed it was the 'race card' that pulled it off. So, they dialed it up to 'white supremacist' and 'hes going to put black people back in chains' against Romney, who was literally the laughing stock of the Republican party, the year before. Again, Obama won, because he had no competition and again, the radicals believed their hate rhetoric was to credit. So, in 2016, they just twisted the dial off that shit. You could see it, before anyone had even announced candidacy, they were already starting with the '[INSERT REPUBLICAN] is a racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic... you name it' - just fill in the blank with whatever you hate and thats what the Republican and their voters are. It has nothing to do with Trump, this is all planned and canned and would be the same no matter who it was. The main point of over the top outrage, is that it didnt work this time, so they must have been cheated. The point being that the Republican President is "... racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic... you name it", by predetermination, since 2008. So, it makes perfect sense that Trump is a racist for literally any and every thing he says and does. ...and it will definitely work this time, because their only failure last time, was not being hateful, vicious and divisive enough 😒

  36312.  @bl3778  Uh, no. Let us review... you asked if I understood the oaths. I replied that I do. Then, you asked where there is any mention of service to the President; already a divergence from the matter at hand. I responded with reference to Oath of Enlistment (which explicitly specifies duty to the President, before duty to Officers and UCMJ). Then, you attempted to further reframe the issue, around the Officer Corps, completely discounting answer to your previous challenge. Oath of Office is an extension of the Oath of Enlistment(as it does not explicitly rescind said oath), which everyone takes, first. But, its entirely irrelevant to the issue. Are you actually trying to argue that the Officer Corps does not answer to anyone??? Because, that is the implication. The military falls under jurisdiction of the Executive Branch and the President is the Chief Executive; you know, that Constitutional element of their oath. Congress has the 'power of the purse' to constrain the President's immediate use of military assets. But, command of the military falls entirely with the President. All commissions are at the pleasure of the President, who may bestow, or rescind a commission, at any time, for any reason (the President typically delegates that authority, for minor commissions, but has the power to review and approve or, deny any and all commissions). When the President gives an order, an Officer has two options: resign their commission, at which point their Oath of Enlistment reasserts(because Oath of Office supercedes, but does not rescind it) and they are directly sworn to follow the President's orders, with no responsibility for those orders; or, resign from service. They don't simply get to say nah and do their own thing 🤨 If you are in the military, you serve the White House. Your only choice is to follow orders, or GTFO. The only exception being that Officers may refuse clearly illegal orders, with no repercussions; they do not enjoy the privilege of conscientious or political objection.
