RIP, there goes home defense.

You’re the kind of person that will never serve on a jury because you believe that if someone is arrested, they must be guilty. Innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt is the American standard.
I’m a “bad actor” for defending both the Constitution and for expressing an opposing viewpoint? lol, ok then.
FWIF, I don’t know for sure what the percentage of the US population is that supports Trump, I just know that Trump is leading Biden slightly or is toe-to-toe with Biden in almost every single poll. I also know that according to a Gallup poll a couple of years ago, 36% of polled people say they are conservative and only 25% say they are liberal, with another 37% identifying as moderate. Considering that Trump is the moderate candidate at this point (Biden has moved consistently to the far left during his presidency), I’d say that assuming ~50% of the population supports or at least would vote for Trump based solely on policy isn’t the worst reasoning. https://news.gallup.com/poll/388988/political-ideology-steady-conservatives-moderates-tie.aspx
I suppose providing sources for my claims is further proof I’m a “bad actor”, eh?
Calling ~50% of the population “nutjobs” isn’t particularly conducive to productive political discourse. Solely using strawman and ad hominem fallacies just make you look like a partisan hack, not a serious person.
It’s totally off-topic, but I stand by what I said in that other thread. If you can show me that there is a correlation that evidences decreased violent crime and increased firearms regulation, please let me know, I’m eager to read it. FTR, I get my crime stats directly from the FBI.
I consider myself to be a classical liberal, someone who believes in the liberal values that allowed our great nation to be founded in the first place. To that end, I have no compunction calling out hypocrisy whenever I see it. Do I think Trump is a good person? Hell no. But between him and Biden, I believe that Trump makes the better president. The US and the entire World were objectively better off based on the stats under Trump than they are under Biden.
The implication is that without US assistance, Israel wouldn’t have been able to knock out all these missiles. That is unfounded, especially considering that Israel has one of the most advanced high-altitude SAM systems in the world, the Arrow and the Arrow II missile systems.
The Iron Dome only protects against short-range rockets. Israel’s Arrow and Arrow II Endospheric and Exospheric anti-missile defense systems are what most of the missiles that were intercepted by Israel were shot down with.
To be fair, the man is traveling constantly right now. I’d be exhausted if I were almost 80 and flying all the time.
What if Israeli government sites were located inside the homes of Israeli civilians? What if Israeli military sites were located underneath Israeli hospitals? Would that grant Israel immunity against Iran? Because your line of reasoning would be that the only way to prevent war is to put civilians in harms way, as Hamas has done repeatedly.
It’s not retaliatory unless Israel has (recently) attacked Iran, which they haven’t. It should be considered revenge, not retaliation.
Presumably Israel will respond in force. I’d hate to be living in Tehran right now.
False. A significant number of these Palestinian Arabs are members of the IDF, and there is no second-class citizenship in Israel. The Israeli government also does not prohibit employment based on race, ethnicity, or religious affiliation. Calling Israel “apartheid” is a tankie talking point and is observably and patently false. Do better.
The settler rioters were not terrorists by that definition, because they were not trying to accomplish a political aim, they were angry and lashing out because islamic terrorists from the West Bank kidnapped and killed (?) a 14 year old child.
20% of Israeli citizens are Palestinian Arabs and practicing Muslims. Your comment makes no sense.
So you would call the Black Lives Matter/George Floyd rioters terrorists then?
Lots of tankies/leftists in the Fediverse :(
Oct 7th was an organized invasion of Israel by Hamas, a known terrorist organization. They also entered Israel with the express and sole purpose of killing as many Jews/Israelis as possible. The rioters in the West Bank didn’t go there to kill people by all accounts. If they had, there would be more than just a single death.
A violent riot is not the same as terrorism.
Updates that change the .exe will always cause incompatibility with F4SE mods until F4SE can release a .dll update. Usually happens pretty fast though.
Keep in mind that Steam Deck compatibility/verification is a lot more than just performance. It also entails controller support, UI/UX scaling and compatibility, and functionality, like being able to pause when the steam deck goes to sleep.
Fallout 4 already works pretty well on deck vanilla, even better with some mods. But it’s always good news when devs take the steam deck into consideration. Also good news for linux gaming in general.
Any gun safe capable of being opened quickly by an authorized user would be able to be opened just as quickly by an unauthorized user, aka a child.
I agree with your assertion though, that keeping a gun handy in the presence of an adult is distinctly different from keeping a gun unsecured and not in the possession of an adult. Good point.
