I'd go as far as to suggest a sit in. On a rational level i thought the violence that occurred at the capitol would only harm us, and was the worst thing we could have done. It was only a small group of rabble rouses, and now we're painted as terrorists. We need to remind them that if not all Muslims are terrorists, as they loved to remind us, then neither are we.

Anyone who has studies this knows that the second you resort to violence you lose the moral high ground. If the media is against you? They will do everything they can now to snuff you out.

MLK Jr. is the way we need to play this. Peaceful protests, sit in's, etc. Don't bring guns and use intimidated (beleive me i love guns, i own like 50, and I think we should be able to order full auto 50 cals on gun broker right to our doors). Give them zero reason to be violent towards you, and then when they are? make sure the cameras are rolling.

This is the only way we'll begin to change hearts and minds. If we perpetrate violence, we lose public opinion. As much as it pains me to say, if we march open carrying weapons, we lose public opinion. Public opinion should not matter, but it has and it does.

He takes breaks every year, this isn't incredibly unusual for him. Though i do miss his voice.

finally someone who gets it. He never once called for riots. I think he legit thought Pence was going to help us, but also wanted the congress and senate to see how many people were pissed. You don't have to burn shit down to show you're pissed like a bunch of aunt tiffa faggots.

I've been familiar with this case for a while and used to make a similar argument. I believe part of what made this case unique was that the Company was providing a role that the government typically provided. IE They ran a town.

This argument i believe was used in a case that had to do with public access television being run by a private company, and said private company was a bunch of dirty commie cock suckers. As i recall the judge said Marsh V. Alabama didn't apply because the private entity was not taking on a government role.

Unfortunately I don't think we'll get a win in the courts referencing this case. unless we get rid of 230, we're all fucked when it comes to facecunt and twatter

This to me is almost more shocking than Trump being platformed. This man is responsible for my path away from the left back when I was in college.

I'm looking for ammo to use against people who said trump called for violence. I'm aware of the comments he made AFTER the fact, but what the the comments he made before and during calling for peace?

Agreed. Trump has redefined the republican party, and if they won't play the new game he has more than enough support to start the MAGA party.

I think his chances for a 2024 run are non existent though. Not as long as TW/FB/IG/etc have the ability to ban people they disagree with. Section 230 needs to go.

Does it make sense to host an onion node on tor?

As long as we have national debt sending money to any foreign country will almost always be inexcusable (there MAY occasionally be situations where it's warranted). After we have a national surplus instead of a national debt, we should then use that money to take care of every single veteran who suffers due to their sacrifice for our country. After that, i'm not opposed to some kind of publics works efforts to help the homeless, those with no job skills, People on wellfare should be put to work. Pick up trash on the sidewalk, scrub graffiti, do busy work, something, except for those with straight up disabilities you should be working for that government cheese.... I'm off topic, but then and only then would i even consider sending money to foreign governments as acceptable

Should be, but really does need to be said.

Reporting in. Although if I didn't have elderly parents here and run a successful business I'd be gone to a state that didn't hate me for my guns

I know this is off topic, but having used holosun and RMR's red dot optics, i am sad to say I think the holosun optics are better than RMR's. the 509T is definitely better than the aimpoint acro. the 507k is better than the rmrcc.

I've used the 508 and the 507c that buddies had after being an RMR only dude.

that said this laser is a POS and i don't know why anyone would want it for something other than airsoft.

The issue is with mobile devices. Android or Apple. You are linked to them no matter what. Use ad blockers, starve them of revenue, and look for as many alternative sources for your media as you can find
