yep most RW people (me included) love it when a minor defends himself from a child rapist.. whats wrong with you that you dont? Are you one of those that is trying to normalize pedophilia or something?
What does gay-dar have to do with my analogy? You make no sense. Unless you're assuming that I'm male?
When do any habits start? Point is while there is the occasion burglary around about the place property crime per se isn't a major issue. I've lived in other areas where it was more common but even there its falling. Perhaps its because stealing 'stuff' from peoples home isn't anywhere near as profitable as it used to be but the stats say its down across the State by more than 10% over 5 years ago. In fact almost all crime types are down over the same period. The murder rate is 'stable' (on a per head of population basis) and the only major crime I know of that has increased is sexual assault. But that's mainly due to an increased willingness to report and authorities being more receptive to taking action etc.
Or to the victims of the racist Waukesha massacre which happened largely due to openly racist rhetoric from Biden and the MSM. We can never let the liberals forget that their terrorist inciting talk has cost decent law abiding people their lives.
Oh, don't fret, Kyle is 18 now. The most ardent fans can drop to their knees and do some worshipping. Although, judging by the age of consent to marry in many states, Conservatives have been finding "workarounds" for decades. Under God love is blind!
No. Thats just wrong. Facts are the majority of aborigines in Northern Australia live in rural communities. Depending on the season for cultural reasons many families will move out to what are called 'camps' on clan/family land some distance from the main communities (usually to be closer to their ancestral lands and totems etc) . These 'camps' are run by the community members themselves, not the government. Until recently there has been little or no COVID in the areas concerned but it recently arrived and as a result a few communities have gone into lock down/isolation.When this happens some members have chosen to go out to their remote camp sites to sit out the quarantine. If they took COVID with them when they left then the camp concerned might well be put into 'lock down' but I am not aware of whether or not this has happened anywhere. Also fact. There is one government run camp in the Northern Territory. Its in the main city and consists of de-mountable accommodation units (with all mod cons) and is used to house incoming overseas travelers for the duration of their 14 day quarantine period. They are charged a fee for their stay and then go on their way once cleared. There is no, repeat no mass roundups of Aboriginals going on in the area concerned and they are not being put into 'government run camps'.
Err ... how often does that scenario actually play out where you live? I mean I can think of very valid several reasons to own a firearm but 'Protecting myself or others from rampaging pedophiles' doesn't exactly make it anywhere near the top of the list. In fact it would be way somewhere down near 'to defend myself in case a grizzly bear ever breaks into my apartment'!
Are you confused on what thread your in? Or just clueless on what actually happened with Rittenhouse? Let me clue you in here. A child rapist pedophile that raped several kids aged 9 - 11 years old attacked Rittenhouse.. this thread is about the trial in where Rittenhouse used self defense against him and several other attacking rioters.
I didn't know people staying in concentration camps had individual air conditioned rooms, wi fi and catered meals. I also didn't know all the inmates of concentration camps were volunteers having been provided with all the relevant details in advance of making their bookings so they could decide if they really wanted or needed to go in the first place. Thank you for updating me. Your knowledge of history is truly awe inspiring.
No, not really. Are you confused by the English language? Because I didn't comment on what happened to Rittenhouse or the circumstances around it. I simply asked how often (as a justification for carrying a firearm) the specific circumstances you mentioned in your post would actually come up.
Well I was having a conversation.. specifically about what happened to Rittenhouse.. in a thread specific to the actions and trial of Rittenhouse and you jumped into the middle of it asking some random question that has nothing to do with what this thread is about or what my quote was about.. so that's why I was questioning if you posted in the wrong thread.. The justification for caring a firearm is because there is terrible humans in this world how many of them that are a pedophiles vs how many just want to kill you or rape you is irrelevant as far as the breakdown.. they are all bad so your question is both useless to the thread and useless in general
Well self defense is certainly a legitimate reason for carrying a firearm, at least in the US anyway. Albeit the country has ended up is a sort of arms race with itself i.e. you carry firearm because of the potential risks posed by other 'unknown' persons. Meanwhile someone nearby who doesn't know you ends up feeling the same need carry a firearm in order to to defend themselves from threats posed by others. In effect both of you end up arming yourself (theoretically against each other) even though neither one of you actually intends harm to anyone else. Not a dilemma with an easy solution not matter how you look at it.
The vast majority of CCW permit holders aren't arming themselves to protect against other CCW permit holders. They're overwhelmingly more concerned about the criminal elements in our society, who do very much intend to harm others.
Only has to come up one time in your lifetime, and poof you are dead! Sure it is! Very simple! You get a very as in 'very' polite society!
Of course, but that was sought of my point. Its not as if every CCW permit holder in the country gets those letters tattooed on the foreheads or is issued an official T-shirt that says 'I'm legally entitled to carry'. For that matter there's no rule that says a listened carrier can't go off the rails for whatever reason. Likewise the 'criminal element' are all running around wearing black hats. So the problem remains (and always will be) separating the sheep from the goats, the potential threats from those who aren't. If it can't be done you end up back where I started back at the internal arms race.
If it was as 'polite ' as you insist there wouldn't be threads like this. Or for that matter all the other sundry acts of violence and mayhem we all see on the nightly news.
I'm not surprised. You're missing the entire point that presentation and jury selection matters greatly. And where Rittenhouse defense team went all out, the prosecutor took 1 day to select their jury..... where normally other prosecutors take 2 to even 3 weeks for just the jury selection. You can perfectly well argue with those facts, that the prosecutor against Rittenhouse didn't take their job serious. And that's besides that some questions the prosecutors asked and answers it gave was totally helping out Rittenhouse.... which is just all adding to argue if the prosecutors took their job serious in trying to convict Rittenhouse. The other poster claims it all doesn't matter... while it highly probably did, since the defense went all out because they know it makes a big difference. And it seems you even agree with me... so And no, lots of defendants don't do practice jury things, since they simply can't afford it. This does hurt the poor community chances of getting an equal trial compares to the rich. And I note black people are over represented in poor communities.
He probably practiced that all week on that one... because he got nothing else to do. He dropped out of highschool. He tried to enroll in the police, fire brigade, and the marines.. and it was a no. He does some crash course of giving medical aid... online, that isn't giving him any kind of a degree as a medic/nurse. He does some odd unskilled jobs that highly probably only pay minimum wage. His father is an alcoholic drug abuser. He lives with his mother, who got a history of being evicted because she can't pay bills. Does it look like the kid is going places? I've heard he received job offers from right wing politicians... while he got no skills in politics at all. So he would be there as a mascot, until they get bored getting served coffee by him.
