Anyone that hates on the Crusades for being shitty and unjust have no idea how ridiculous the Muslim conquest was after Muhammad's death. If the Hammer didn't stop them at Tours all of Western civilization may have fell.
I think it's crazy that we pump food into Africa in the name of preventing starvation when these people can't seem to understand that they need to stop banging out so many kids that they starve. We're literally exacerbating the problem with our kindness.
I mean, would Tesla even exist if it wasn't totally subsidized by the USG?
No offense to the electric-bois who love their cars, I'm just unsure if Tesla would even stand on its own as a company without serious government funding.
Obama was nominated for the award around the time of his election. He literally got it for being a black guy voted into the presidency.
The shit he did later obviously negates that, but it's even more asinine that he got it for no reason other than the color of his skin. At least when he was blowing people up later on, one could argue he was killing our enemies (mostly) and we are the international arbiters of peace. When he got nominated for the award he hadn't even done anything yet.
I'm thankful his attorney took the time to call out the point that the shitbag that got shot in the arm needs to be charged with something. I say attempted murder given his past history of being a dirtbag and given the fact that the mob was calling for the Kid to be killed.
It's cut and dry, as plain as day - the scumbags that tried to fuck that kid up were wrong and they got what was coming to them.
I think the left is going to find the next four years are not going to go how they want them to, starting November 4th.
Well, I agree for the notion of the big-name bought and paid for types like the legacy media. I think snuffing out the notion of journalism completely would either put dissemination of information into the hands of the government (very bad) or would make it a giant game of telephone, like it practically is now seeing as we have to learn about shit from word of mouth and video recordings over what these news anchors tell us - better but not ideal.
The Washington Post's motto, as much as I hate them: "Democracy Dies in Darkness." is actually pretty legit when you think about it. Problem is WaPo and all of these other big media outlets are utterly compromised.
So no, eliminating the profession of journalism is silly. Free people have a right to unbiased and objective information, our journalistic institutions are failing us at providing that. We need to fix journalism and bring back its integrity, and there are plenty of small, independent journalists and organizations trying to do just that.
Too bad the Kid is going to be set free. Worst case then pin him for carrying underage. Good luck keeping your courthouse from getting broken down brick by fucking brick for throwing a hero away over some bullshit like that.
This fucking shit... I don't believe many conspiracy theories, but I seriously doubt a guy that was knowledgeable about firearms would bring THAT MANY up into a hotel room to commit a single-man mass shooting. You don't 'New York reload' semi-automatic rifles, everyone knows that.
