7.62x39 is an inferior cartridge imo. There's a reason the russians switched everything to 5.45x39.

Is there somewhere we can see the raw footage from this shooting? I'm sick of all this editorialized bullshit.

Edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0DSTV7XT1E

Based on the video alone, I don't see and justification for the shooting. Maybe there was a gun visible in the car, who knows? I think I'll wait for more info before jumping to any conclusions.

If anyone has a better angle or more info please post it.

Thanks for source. Could still be MSM spin. It looks like just how they would frame it if the above original post was true.

This is how public school is. It's always been about indoctrination, the subjects just change from year to year. In a way, it is preparing you for the real world, where this shit will come from every angle at all times courtesy of the MSM.

  1. Educate yourself, learn about economics research your own arguments. Hear their arguments and research those as well.

  2. Remember the goal is not to "win the argument", the goal is to be correct. They can always win by dog piling you with a 10 on 1 debate, but that doesn't make them right.

  3. Keep in mind that your teacher will ultimately decide your grade. Be prepared to lie, or keep your knowledge to yourself if you need to. It's unfortunate, but this too reflects how the real world works. If you're researching their arguments and understanding them, then it's fairly easy to simulate that viewpoint.

Learning to approach an issue from your opponents perspective is very useful skill, so don't shy away from it.

Well the whole reason we have intelligence assets and whatnot is supposedly to protect our freedoms. So if those are being infringed in secret by the government, then I'd say the death of government assets is a necessary trade.

I'm sorry for any US agents that were harmed; but Snowden is an absolute hero in my book.

consults programming .... "it's not murder"

Thats how.

Step 1. [shutoff brain] Step 2. [say "her body her choice"] Step 3. [goto step 2]

I think the most reasonable answer is that it's a continuum.

Couple of cells right after conception = not murder Fully grown baby 1 day prior to birth = murder In between those two there's a gradient.

Because it's a fluid change, I can totally see how people would disagree on what the threshold is. The only thing I'm sure of is that people who say a baby 1 day from birth isn't alive are full of shit, and likewise for people who saw an egg just fertilized is the same as a baby.

Very interesting perspective.

Easy there. That's a risky assumption.

Seems like they're more active in legal battles. Check out their wikipedia articles.

MSM Boss: "Trump is talking up Hydroxychloroquine, so we need a smear piece about how it's terrible and dangerous asap"

Reporter: "Does it work?"

MSM Boss: "I don't see how that's relevant"

Let's be honest, he wasn't being "aggressive". He was definitely being non-compliant, but in a dead weight kind of way. I agree I don't think the knee to the neck killed him, but I think it's important to call a spade a spade.

The cop shouldn't have kneeled on his neck like that, especially with him motionless for several minutes, and given the fact that although completely non-compliant, he wasn't behaving violently in any way.

However.. it's clear from the video that this guy was messed up something fierce, and that combined with the autopsy makes is seem somewhat unlikely to me that the knee to the neck is what killed him.

Could be a scenario where you're shooting from concealment and have time to aim.

Lol, in one breath you say "it won't put a man on the ground easily", and that it's "more than enough for self defense". Those are 2 mutually exclusive statements.

If you shoot someone with a 22 and it causes them to bleed out 1hr later, then that doesn't help you at all. A .22 will not "puree" anything.

I wouldn't count on it. ..but I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end either.

It's like how I'd never consider .22 to be adequate for self defense, but it certainly wouldn't just stand there if I was being shot at with it.

If someone starts a fire or damages property that's a crime and you should be punished. But if person A commits a crime, and person B is nearby, then person B's rights aren't invalidated.

They're US citizens on US soil. I don't support them, but I do support their constitutional right to assemble. There are those among them committing crimes and I agree that those people should be dealt with.

If you can't even respect the constitution, what moral standing do you have?

Liberals condition themselves to shut their brains off if they think the current line of reasoning may lead to a racist conclusion. Not unlike crimestop in 1984.

It's not that simple, most of these mobs are a mix of regular protesters and belligerents. You can't just shoot into a crowd because one person in the crowd has a gun for example.
