it's not about knowing something like this is going to happen, it's about being prepared to capitalize on any potential crisis, which they did

in AL we have a senator who introduces a constitutional carry bill every year but it always dies in committee because the sheriff's association lobbies against it. They say it's because "tHiS iS hOw We TeLl ThE gOoD gUyS fRoM tHe BaD gUys", but the truth is they don't want to lose the income from issuing the permits

wholeheardedly agree. Work in management and HR are just soulless robots that unthinkingly spout "company policy" this or "company policy" that. They never help us when we have real performance-affecting problems with employees but if a good employee breaks some hidden policy, even accidentally, they will have them fired with a quickness.

Seriously, that shit is not good for you. I used to be a heavy soda drinker (I'd drink a 12 pack of Dr Pepper in like 2 days) but stopped once I turned 30 and lost about 40 pounds in 3-4 months and have kept it off since. Trying to convince my wife to stop but it's a decision you have to make on your own or it won't work.

Chinese-sponsored corporate facism

time for some good ol' weaponized autism

that wasnt an attempt at removing them> and that's the problem

damn I really want to believe

The other side already did it all summer this past year

Yep, this is a super easy li.tmus test we should use on every single candidate from here on out. Anything short of an emphatic yes is an immediate disqualification

and MacArthur wanted to nuke the commies in the 50s during the Korean War and was fired over it. If we'd done that while we were still the world's only nuclear power the world would probably be a lot better place.

I have conflicting opinions about H1Bs. I hate that they take American jobs and devalue our wages but the truth is they wouldn't be here if the companies that hire them didn't bring them here. I also feel bad for them because of how shitty they get treated as they're made to work way longer hours for way less pay. I think the whole system should be scrapped on both protectionism and humanitarian grounds.

Interesting, didn't know about that

Yep, the panhandle part of the real South, but the penninsula is this weird slurry of everything

But then we've got to deal with them shitting up Alabama! Start the line in South Tennessee, and so on etc.

fellow TW: Warhammer fan?

One of the main reasons smaller red states tend to be net receivers of federal money is because of federally mandated entitlement programs they required to pay for

That sucks pede, worst type of cross dominance to have in a right handed world. I'm left handed but right eye dominant, so I just shoot right handed. You can do it though, figure out what works for you and don't let it stop you Spez: sounds like you have a good excuse to train shooting with both eyes open, which is the better way to do it anyway it just takes getting used to

How was it "proven wrongful?" Just because a thief mugs you and steals your wallet, doesn't mean your claim of ownership to it was "proven wrongful". The garrison of Ft Sumter refusing to leave a then independent nation who didn't want them there was an act of war. Ultimately war isn't about who's right, it's about who's stronger, and the Union was stronger.

I read it in high school, and had a bunch of notes in the margins of my copy from class with a very based teacher who had us read it. I really wish I could find it again, especially now

This is why the Confederacy was so aggressive early on, it was basically a Hail Mary to end the war before the Union's war machine could really ramp up. The reason that plan failed is because they overextended - rather than going up to Pennsylvania they should have seiged DC.

Tell me something, do you really believe we're united? Do you even want to be "united" with the corrupt assclowns in power now and the beta faggots who support them? No common enemy could bring us together at this point, because there would be no such thing. We're a "United States" in name only

It's amazing how much Lincoln's dick gets sucked for being the first Republican president, regardless of the fact that a Democrat or Republican in 1860 are VASTLY different things that a Democrat or Republican in current year, or even current year -20, -30, -50, or -100

Excactly, the Feds were given 30 days to relinquish control of all federal property in Confederate terriory and the garrison as Ft. Sumpter refused. Even if the Confederates shot first they were justified because that garrison was now officially an invading force occupying their rightful territory
