I’d love to not have a car, but there’s not a train that runs to the slopes and the busses cost more than twice as much as the gas to get there.

Do we actually know if he had a knife? Initial reporting was that the police knew he had a knife because he refused to take his hands out of his pockets. While he did threaten them, it was contingent upon them continuing to follow them. He did not actually attack them until after multiple officers attempted to tase him. Furthermore, so what if he had a knife? As far as we’re aware, he’s got a second amendment right to keep and bear arms. Being armed isn’t an excuse to be killed by cops because you are generally explicitly allowed to be armed.
All in all:
While that is textbook escalation, it really doesn’t seem like they shot him cause he had a knife. They shot him (and 3 others) cause he didn’t care about their authority and they couldn’t let the guy that was already on the train go. And all that came about because he tried to skip a fare that costs around the same amount as the bullets fired.
There are 5 basic rules for guns:
What I posted was a subset of the five then alluded to the full list.
Now watch as nearly half the voting population accepts this behavior.
There are VoIP options, sure, but not the actual phone bands.
Except the actual phone part.
It’s way more than just trigger discipline. There’s the traditional rules of course:
But there’s also reasonable shit beyond the 5 basic rules:
Oh s—, my gun just went off
Weird, I’d been told they don’t do that.
properly documenting the people who enter our country is vital for providing public services …
Not really. We can track that the same way we track non-immigrants: census, job reports, bank accounts, change of address forms, buying private data hoards.
Frankly I’d be in favor of just letting people in and letting them legally work. Our current system allows people in but then they are just expected to lie around waiting for permission to stay. Meanwhile they aren’t contributing to the broader economy. Let them work while they’re here and more of them will get off the streets, there will be more money going towards taxes, and there will be a broadening pool of people that can actually afford to buy things.
Cause Trump is incapable of admitting fault. He wanted his supporters to kill his last VP because Pence recognized that America didn’t want Trump.
Ya want the truth? Lax gun laws led to public shootings as an easy way to gain notoriety. So many people took the school shooting route that they are now old hat. Want to get famous? Take out a prominent politician. What doesn’t help is Republicans blocking every effort to control access to guns (even those the majority of Republicans want) and Trump’s rhetoric stoking fear and normalizing violence.
Shoots dead activist
There are less clumsy ways of phrasing that Israel killed someone.
Now’s not the time
It’s a mental health issue
We need more guns in school
We need to require teachers to be ready to kill their students
We need (my) God in schools
Too many violent video games and movies
Its a “mag” not a “clip”
It’s a “hunting rifle” not an “assault rifle”
Wayne LaPierre can barely hit an elephant from point blank range but he still is more qualified to talk about guns than you
Your child’s life is an acceptable trade for my hobby
What a weird, insecure man.
I bet they actually don’t.
As long as you aren’t sleeping in your bed when the police get the wrong address, or sleeping in an encampment when the police decide to steal all your belongings for living while poor, or kicked out of the library for not having access to a bathroom, or finding yourself in a grocer, mall, concert hall, theatre, school, etc on a day a shooter decides to show up.
Also you can’t survive on $1 per day without someone caring for you. That will not keep you off the streets and fed, and it will most definitely not cover fees for access to self improvement resources or recovery.
He started forgiving student loan debt in August of 2022. The Republican Supreme Court keeps blocking him.
Meanwhile basically all of Palestine needs help to rebuild.
Cool! Now name them. What are those States, Donny Boi?
I’m not sure you understand the feasibility of biking 84 miles 2 times in a day in sub freezing weather with a total elevation change of 15,000ft with skis strapped to my back.
