Biden 2020

Again I don't see things going well for them. From religious folks trying to push various religions onto them, to folks who wish to exploit them for easy labor and their resources, to folks who see them as something to purge, there's a lot of things that could end badly.

Again, just look at our own personal history. What typically happens when a far more advanced society meets a more primitive one?

And again, this is things we did to our own kind. I shudder to think how things would play out against another species.

I mean keeping it non religious and only a small team would be in a station or spaceship above and only that small team would be able to even legally land on the planet without getting blown up or arrested and sent to prison and they sign an oath not to interfere like I think in star trek if they interfered with primitive civilizations. If we were a type 2 or 3 civilization though and they were at almost type 1 like we are or at that level I feel it would be okay to show ourselves gradually and have only diplomatic starships be allowed to enter their home system because they probably know there are aliens out there they just don't know what we look like

[Meliva]

That would be a good way to handle things, but whether or not we would do so like that is another matter entirely. Humanity has a poor track record so far, and sadly I don't expect it to get better. Though thankfully, that means that If I'm wrong, I'll be pleasantly surprised

Back on topic of Biden, gotta say, hilarious how he wants to accuse trump of making the riots worse when trump is the one who keeps offering to send feds to clean them up, but the dems have been letting their cities burn out of spite.

[PhoenixKnight]

Mel, I am afraid you don’t have the full facts on that one. Being in one of those cities I can tell you I have seen the Feds kidnapping people and beating people who have protest permits and just standing in the designated location with their signs. That behavior brought out more and more people and then the Feds used rubber bullets too.
When they withdrew only the people from the original protest remained. Trump’s orders and his administration way of handling things are what is escalating the problems.

Sorry, but any sympathy I may have had for anyone who wanted to simply protest is gone once they continued to promote chaos, destruction and murder. If the feds have done those actions that's a shame, but the fact that people still went out to "protest" while riots happened is idiotic, and disgusting. If I had gone out to peacefully protest, and I saw rioters started destroying buildings and killing innocent people, I would immediately drop my protest, and go home I would also condemn the rioters. But the fact that people still go out to protest, and don't seem to care that so many people are being killed, or having their livelihoods ruined, makes me have little sympathy if those same people end up suffering.

We also don't have the full info on what the feds are doing. Maybe the folks they "kidnapped" were folks who they had info were rioters from previous days. As federal agents they can arrest folks they suspect of crimes. Not to mention the fact that while the feds may have used rubber bullets, it sure as hell wasn't a rubber bullet when BLM killed that trump supporter. It sure as hell wasn't a rubber bullet when they shot and killed David Dorn. So before anyone goes crying about getting hit by a rubber bullet, thank your lucky stars that the feds aren't gunning them down like they did to those folks. The way some of these folks are acting like animals, to be frank, some of them would deserve it.

So yeah, don't have any sympathy left for most of these folks. That got burned up pretty quick. Sort of like all those buildings they looted.

being from a city is not the same as being there in the center of the drama.
i have several associates i argue with in several cities that are there in the middle of it and they have video and have joined in throwing frozen piss in water bottle, shone lasers in officers eyes to permanently damge their eyes ... and worse acts of violence towards officers and anyone not sharing the mob mentality
i sometimes do police accountability and 1st amendment audits with some of my other associates
so i would be the first to say police reform is a needed thing but when you say defund or eradicate them it makes you seem less than intelligent

now as for less than lethal tactics they should use them more often of course the crying would not end despite less lethal deaths then it would be what it has become now ... they used less lethal waah waaah waah
first and foremost as a protestor your job if you wish to block streets is to obtain a permit and the police will block the road and highlight an alternative route for others as opposed to blocking mobbing and destroying other citizens property.
you also without a permit must otherwise protest in normal forums ie sidewalks and public foyers but you cannot hinder any business it may be
basically protesting is a gathering of people to voice their concern or unhappiness with something and that does not include rioting, looting, or in any other way depriving other citizens of their rights... the second you do its not a protest it is a riot and less lethal should be used.

now as to the question of why more than one gun thats easy....

you see 1 antifa thug on your property smashing windows yelling some protest
you whip out your diablo double barrel black powder shotgun pistol (not even classified as a firearm even a felon can use and carry it) and chop him in half property defended

you see 3 antifa thugs vandalising your property and now there is a possible problem 2 barrels 2 slugs diablo isnt going to work so you slam your clip into your italian 40 caliber wildcat run outside issue a loud cease and desist and call the coronor for those who refused to listen... property defended

you see 10 antifa thugs vandalising your property now you could show off some pistols with 100 round clips but in a practical situation outside of target practice they arent all that practical so you grab your fs 2000 and step out and begin spring cleaning

you see 20 antifa thugs creating havoc on your property and begin to get squeamish (most people are around that many roaches) and you snap your fingers run to the gun safe and grab your best home defense weapon check to make sure its still fully loaded in both tubes heft your ksg-25 up and step outside and watch em scatter or writhe on the ground like the roaches they are


ooooh you are so evil

WHAT?

defund the police
disarm the police
free criminals or allow them to loot and burn at will
911 wont work if they are defunded so good thing i like guns


* antifa thug can be subbed for anything that calls for you defending your life or property
** aresenal gets better if the * title includes a tyrannical government or anything governmental in the title

[The Lamb]

That was awesome! +100

[Leo]

I'm not even going to reply... this is getting stupid. It's obvious that you don't understand ANYTHING, so I'm not even going to bother. Phoenix, you are wasting your time with these racist Trump-loving fascists.

[The Lamb]

LMAO!!!! Like i said, you obviously dont know the meaning of fascism. Oh and i understand more than you think, when last I was tested I was only at 146 for IQ putting me in the 99.98 percentile. Now granted thats not close to Einstein at 160, but with average being 100 its safe to say that i can comprehend everything your saying, your just wrong. But, that was a few years ago, and as im sure you know IQ decreases with age sadly, so im prob hovering in the upper 130's. So if you ever want to compare brain pans let me know

So back to the topic.

Fascism
noun
(sometimes initial capital letter) a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.

We have been touting since this started that we believe in more individual rights and freedoms, equality of everyone, freedom of speech and capitalism. We are actually, by any definition, the exact opposite of fascists.

Blue i hate to break it to you, but your beliefs actually fall in line with fascism. And dont be shocked, Mussolini invented it as a way to merge socialism and nationalism.

The easiest way to throw people off a persons trail is to accuse others of what you are doing to put them on the defensive so they dont have time to look at the the accuser. Kind of a slight of hand. You know like when CNN and the dems were accusing Trump of Russian collusion, and it turns out the only ones colluding with the Russians were the accusers. Fascists believe in violence and intimidation because to them its the right reasons... hmmmm

I think you have been tricked into taking a position that actually, by definition, is what you claim to hate And before you say your not a racist, blaming a whole race for the problems of another race is racism at its best, even if its your own race your blaming. Throughout history were some people of a race and some people of another race doing bad things at different times.

Im going to take my tennis raquet and go play some baseball, because i thought it was silly to own a bunch of different type clubs that where all just for hitting balls.


By the way shooting is an olymipic sport.
There are shooting events in both the summer and winter olympics.
