Your constitution guarantees that you have a right to own one.
Arguing wether you need it or not is shifting the discussion towards gradual regulation of firearms.
I think this is a very dumb discussion. If you outlaw guns you dont make people less dangerous. There are so many ways a unstable person can inflict massive and extreme damage.
No. We are depending on a strong american military that guarantees european safety. If we can not recieve credible american protection we will be forced to create a credible defense outside of transatlantic cooperation. It is in american interest to prevent a credible european military force operating in Europe outside of american influence.
There is a very big difference within various european regions offcourse, but in general i think the above is true.
Biden does not look good. Dont mix european news with european sentiment.
Victoria "fuck the eu" nuland. Spying on merkel. Flirting with erdogan. Fucking with european randzone stability.
Biden is weak .
Yes, we may dislike western leadership, but out soldiers are still out soldiers
We will se what happens.
In the meantime Rasmussen released a report stating that 51 % of the american population believes there is cheating in the american election.
Good luck Democrats!
I cant wait to see the result
Hooah!
Lets get em boys!
She doesnt believe what she says.
She has no problem with using police against her opponents.
If we imagine that there were no cheating in the election. Trump increased his voterbase from roughly 63 million to 74 million in 2020.
Trump created 11 million trumpvoters after his first election. How many will he create after his second? How many trumpvoters will Biden create?
Biden is a trainwreck. He is a dement corrupt president with a drugaddickted son. His Vicepresident might be the most unpopular VP of all time. Noone likes her, not even democrats. Just look at her results in the primary election.
Bidens foreign policy is appaling. He called Putin a killer, bombs the middleeast, is weak on china, fumbles with Iran. I can go on, but you get my picture.
The gas prices are skyrocketing and the economy is falling.
Border crisis is exploding to such gamebreaking heights he might literally be forced to build Trumps wall.
How many trumpvoters will Biden create?
Good point. English is not my first language so nuances might be lost. I do agree that being smart and being wise is not the same.
IQ is a good determinator of ability, but it is not perfect. It is good for statistical use, but it is not accurate enough to precisely describe individuals.
-
Norwegian schools might be less fucked than american schools, but I have largely good experiences with STEM and professional studies.

I disagree, I believe IQ to be atleast partially genetic and it has extreme impact on individuals. You are however probably correct about that learning to think, logic and critical thinking are crucial to have a healthy mind.
There is a large amount of people who have a higher than average IQ but they are still not that smart. 100 IQ is just average.
I both agree and disagree. Education doesnt really matter outside professional studies and STEM.
I have far more respect for fishermen, farmers, nurses than a random dude with 5 years of educational crap.
On the other hand i do believe iq matter å lot. It is not everything, but it raises your potential.
Smart =/= educated
A lot of educated people today are probably not smart enough. Increased amount of educated people means that the average iq is lower.
“They are rightfully upset/mad about it and it is destroying morale,"
This night be by design.
Agreed. We should have something similar here aswell.
Have you been to europe?
If yes, where did you go?
I am Norwegian. We have strict gun control. We also have a large trust in our government. Europeans have (until recently) largely had a high level of trust in our government and our society. Thats the major difference. Take away that trust and you will see similar attitudes.
At the same time we have a strict gun control legislation, I also grew up learning to shoot rifles in school. We also dont have had (until recently) a issue with illegal/black market weaponry. So the argument that we need weapons to defend ourselves privately does not exist yet in the mainstream discourse.
Historically the guns were used to kill other europeans through organized national warfare not used for self defence to protect individual wealth and property.
My uncle had a G3 service rifle in his attic just in case the russians came across the border. Currently my HK416 is locked in a depot, but that could be changed quickly if necessary. The best way to defend our homeland was through organized militias and national defence policy.
We are watching our societies get split along demografic and societal faultlines with the introduction of free market and free travel, weaponization of police, large scale smuggling of people, weapons, money and drugs and deterioration of internal trust.
I believe the historic sentiment of national defence is going to skew towards a more "american" view aka self defence.
Your welcome.
but Im not an expert on Swedish politics
The greens(Miljöpartiet) are extremely unpopular, they are struggling to survive and get into the swedish parliament. They are somewhere around 4% and they need to have over 4%. They were 3,9% in November and up to 4,4% now. That difference is statistic insignificant.
In other more important news, The Liberals have anounced that they are going to align with Sweden Democrats(who are hated by the media) and the Moderates(who are more like the "right of center" party in sweden)
Media is Reeeeeeeing pretty hard atm about this
Im Norwegian, so take everything I say with a grain of salt.
Upvoted for being a good husband!
You are her father. You must not forget to tell her that you love her once in a while.
She might be a rude, arrogant, crazy, difficult (or whatever description fit her best) liberal. But she is YOUR daughter first...
Good luck pede
That is not what his purpose is. To make accurate predictions i mean.
His purpose is to spread inaccurate predictions.
He is a liar.
Could be deception. This is a great way to get everyones attention while someone is doing something else behind the scenes.
Dont. Just because you dont like Biden doesnt mean that a american loss to Russia is good for you.
