@marie0516765 NHRA isn't perfect, but what people need to realize is... they are living within their means. IHRA was not. There is only so much money to go around in drag racing.
@aakashgupta "skilled service" 😂
Arguing that 17 freaking bucks an hour (for one table!) isn't enough for someone to take orders and carry plates is wild.
@handsomocity@TheLaurenChen I don't understand how we got to 20% being a normal tip? When I was younger, 10% was standard- reasonable and easy to figure. Then 15% (still my max). Now 20+%? It's a percentage- it doesn't need to account for inflation, that happens automatically due to the price of the meal!
@sned@michaelmalice Those factories were doing something productive and essential to society, and employed many people to do it. I'll take all the smokestack industries we can get, thanks. Let China have the data centers.
@SVRGNapparel@brockm@Timodc Yes, you 100% are allowed to harass law enforcement and make their lives miserable. Literally one of the foundations of this country is we can say whatever we want to and about govt agents. If you do break laws, then you may be arrested and tried accordingly- not executed.
@DVanLangenhove "Hit and dragged" wtf? He glanced off the front corner after being too retarded to move out of the way. No one in this situation was ever in ANY real danger until the idiot decided to pull his gun.
@OrionTanka0716@AylaSunsets@LouisianaLp "It does when you hit an officer" WTF does that mean? So make any kind of contact and it's suddenly open season on you? If there is a real and immediate threat to the officer's life that can only be stopped w/ deadly force, sure, but nothing in that video is even close to that.
@bonchieredstate Ok, even if we say he got hit decently hard, it was a glancing blow and he got thrown out of the way. What is the justification for shooting her? It's not like she was going to come back and finish the job, she was trying to GTFO at that point.
@FedUpMajority@mkhammer You're right. And it's equally insane to suggest that the ICE dipshits were in any real danger from the lady in her car. All she wanted to do was get away, she was obviously not trying to chase them and run them down. They simply needed to get out of the way of a moving car.
@mkhammer Yes, they're the same. And, unpopular opinion, neither were justified whatsoever. We tell cops, who have a monopoly on legal violence, that everyone is a threat and they should be paranoid and constantly envision worst case scenarios, and this is what happens.
@ClayTravis@washingtonpost Was he "hit" in the sense that the car contacted him? Maybe. Was there ever any real danger to any agent's life? Obviously not. They might have gotten a foot run over, MAYBE a broken leg. So what, that does not justify deadly force. It's a risk you take with a job like that.
@tonijguinn@RobAbramowitz@ClayTravis I fucking would. Any true patriot should wish nothing but the worst on IRS, ATF, EPA, etc thugs. Doesn't matter if they're "doing their jobs"- if you enforce illegitimate laws, you are evil and should be dealt with accordingly. Government. Is. Evil.
@ClayTravis What the fuck dude. Immigration is one of the few legitimate roles of gov, but that doesn't mean they get special treatment. I just don't understand conservatives right now- acting like gov agents should be literally untouchable after years of having the boot on our own necks.
@carbonmfg@RealDianeYap OMG the cop almost slipped on the ice! Poor baby. Seriously, this thought process that "better 100 people I disagree with die than one cop go home with a minor injury" is frightening. Would we have been saying the same if a Biden ATF agent did this to a right wing protester?
@Atomic_Dingo@RossSchumann@sell9000@JillFilipovic Lol right, jerking forward a little is "trying to crush someone with a car." Fucking pussy ass feds think everything is some grave danger to them. Immigration enforcement is one of the few legitimate roles of government, but the crying these pussies do about any pushback is sad.
