Unless he’s fleeing DC a couple steps ahead of a mob with torches and pitchforks, he ain’t worried enough.

It was from when he flopped onto her hood to get a better angle to shoot her in the face.

Raytheon sells the Silent Guardian directly to law enforcement. ICE is the most well funded paramilitary law enforcement agency in the country.

I’d be shocked if they don’t have a bunch of them.

I absolutely believe it. The US has been working on directed energy crowd control tech since at least the early 2000s. There are tons of videos online of prototypes.

It does not.

Anything that transmits a signal can be found, just get that out of the way immediately. The only way to be 100% untraceable is to never transmit.

Mesh networks, however, are pretty safe. Triangulating the origin of a mesh transmission will just lead to the repeater node which, admittedly is a pain in the dick if they kill the repeater and the network goes dark, but it doesn’t lead directly back to a person, just a box they stuck on a cell tower or up on a hill somewhere.

I’d say telling the mod they have terrible reasoning is, in itself, pretty piss poor reasoning.

But you do you. Let’s see how quickly you can speedrun a ban.

Yup. You definitely have no idea how treaties or international relations work.

I get that it’s scary that the US is doing it, but this is far from the first time world leaders have blustered about wanting territory that wasn’t theirs.

The international community didn’t support preemptive action even when 50,000 troops were massed on Ukrainian borders, they’re not going to do it when a single US combat asset hasn’t moved towards Greenland yet, and not a single policy decision has been enacted.

Edit- don’t get me wrong, if we start blockading Greenland, massing naval and amphibious forces, or building up ground units on the base in Greenland, then absolutely bomb the shit out of them, but the international community will never support action before that. It’s ludicrous to think they would.

…because the last window of opportunity for anticipatory self-defense has been repeatedly ruled by the international community to not extend that far?

Troops massing at borders is precisely the situation that the last window of opportunity is referring to.

I’m starting to think you don’t actually know the statutes involved or their previous legal cases, because if you did you’d know your “argument” is completely worthless.

It’s not like he was hiding it. When he was arrested, all you needed to do was look up his Facebook, and there were members of his bone collectors group freaking out all over the place that bones they bought from him might be illegally sourced.

Dude seriously thought doing it in a private FB group actually meant private.

STOP PRETENDING TO BE A RANDOM USER IN ORDER TO SELL THINGS

I think this might be the most insulting trend in current advertising. You’re not fooling anyone. Just stop.

Once again, the sucking void that is Joe Rogan’s brain finally catches up with what everyone else already knows.

But it isn’t the same argument.

When DJs sample, they choose the samples, choose the pitch and playback speed, and choose where and when to put the sample in their songs.

There is no human intentionality in AI-created music. No one decided what the song should sound like, it’s a mash of what an algorithm calculates is the most predictable next sound based on its prompt, and it calculates what’s next by illegally using the intellectual properties of real humans.

Whoever used this argument with you isn’t arguing in good faith.

Edit - I didn’t even answer the overarching question. You’ll find, in almost all cases, that it isn’t the same argument because one or more things that factor into the decision will have changed. Very rarely is a situation entirely static, and if some variables have changed, then the entire argument must be reconsidered.

They’re shooting them in the face with birdshot. It’s very small and is much less likely to penetrate into body cavities or break bone, but causes extensive soft tissue damage. This is intended to maim people.

Not my kind of thing, but people should be able to have whatever fun they want with their bodies as long as they’re not hurting anyone.

Sorry, troll. I don’t buy it.

Have the day you deserve.

Was Richard Dadd seeing, thinking, and acting with greater clarity when he murdered his father, believing he was the devil?

When Gericault surrounded himself with baskets of severed heads and limbs, many of which were in advanced stages of decay, and kept the severed head of a man from the guillotine on the roof of his house, was he acting with greater clarity than normal people?

Very objectively superior.

Hoarding wealth is a mental illness like any other addiction.

One. Hunnert. Nazi. Scalps.

Good job!

Once they leave ICE, the only thing open to them should be living under a bridge. Leave them to rely on the kindness of their fellow humans.
