@MVZD33@adammocklerr The #2 cause of kids accidentally causing death in the home is from unsecured guns. 150-250, 1000 if you add impulsive suicide. Doesn't matter if pools are #1.
Kids per year from intruder is 0-2 and the idea that those could be avoided by slightly faster gun access is silly.
@rleeinva@adammocklerr 150-250 kids kill themselves or others with unsecured guns. This doesn't include suicide. Unsecured guns, fired by kids, are the #2 cause of their accidental death.
Compare that to 0-2 deaths from kids accidentally killing themselves or others with sharps in the home.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC The only reason I kept talking to you was that I thought you were swept up in misinfo.
But, your belief beneath facade is that what happened was the correct thing, despite the letter of the law. You were happy to see Authoritarian Legalism applied to a "radical left lunatic".
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC Ignorance? We both know what happened. We both know it was extrajudicial execution. It's OK to admit it.
The key difference is: You think she should have just complied. That she deserved death for going against Trump and orders.
This is values issue, rather than ignorance.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC "she got what she deserved" Revel in it, I guess, if that's what gets you going.
Anyway. Nothing of substance, and we've been over this. Still doesn't hold up, and I think you know that. No point carrying on. Live in your world, enjoy your hate, and happy travels! ✌
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC First shot, lunged inward - Notice direction of wheels and turning radius. Not shown: Continued 3s steering wheel turning away from Ross, which he saw, before getting into safe position.
2nd shot - What danger?
3rd shot - What danger?
Going to defend each of these kill-shots?
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC Distortion. I'm def not saying that. Important distinction: Not safe distance, from a completely safe position - out of the path, no chance of being hit. Fired FROM that position, while the vehicle moved away. From where no danger existed. Not protecting his, or others, lives.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC Did you like it how NONE of the other officers were drawn? Because none of the many other officers saw a threat?
Bang, bang! - "Bitch!".
The signs of a professional execution 👍 Don't protect the bad ones, dude.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC You probably liked it though, cheered for it. Thought it was cool when the shooter called her a bitch before he fled the scene - Showing both contempt, and his state of mind that he knew it wasn't justified.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC Panicking or failing to instantly comply is not a capital offense. Video proves the agent was safely to the side of the car, not blocking it. Shooting into a moving vehicle violated standard use-of-force rules. Stop justifying excessive force.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC I mean, it's irrelevant to you if you're OK with that. Which I know you will be.
Just never think you're viewpoints and values are popular just because your echo chamber tells you they are. Those who think like you are still immensely unliked. Wear it like a badge, I guess.
@Skylor570310@TheJFreakinC Extrajudicial killing should concern everyone, regardless of party lines. The only people who think it's acceptable are Maga, who represent ~1% of the words population.
Virtually everyone on earth would consider your view reprehensible. Take the L.
@the_matt@briantylercohen The US birth rates were hit by an initial pandemic shock, which was then compounded by a severe, post-pandemic erosion of consumer buying power. Many people aren't feeling secure enough to have a kid.
This is happening all over the globe. It's nothing to do with democrats 👍
@Siwgth@nsedef@CBSNews Summary: "obama" drove 2,133 piles to bed rock to stop it sinking; stabilising the rapidly deteriorating underground pipe network. Replaced the bottom with durable, waterproof reinforced concrete. Added service trench for future pipe repair.
Trump painted it. That's it.
@Siwgth@nsedef@CBSNews Oh for sure, undercoat. Wouldn't fix the leak because the base was already sealed - It's the vast network of pipes beneath that the water is leaking from. Trump and co knew this, but easier to sell to the taxpayer if he pretended it wasn't just a paintjob. Still leaking.
