It's extremely interesting that Charlie Kirk had a daily podcast, countless public appearances, and is generally one of the most recorded men on the planet and we are always being told, never shown, that he was an open minded civil debator

Why don't these charts ever have Larry Ellison on them? He was in on J6, his kid now owns Paramount/CBS (with his money, I'm sure). He did all Elon did in the shadows during Trump's 1st term before it was cool. He has more money than Bezos and Zuck and is actively destroying our country.

I understand how people get so disgusted with guns they just say "ban them all", but that's not a workable policy proposal in the US. if you want regulation then you'd better have people writing those regulations who understand what a firearm is- in a technical and a legal sense.

It's just that violent criminals are not the bulk of prisons anymore. There's white-collar criminals and non-violent drug offenders. Marginalized communities get sentenced more harshly, we've allowed our prisons to become profit sources, and let's just say it's messy and unkind.
Apocalypse Hound (@apocalypsehound.bsky.social) reply parent
Well, we all know how the justice system works for marginalized communities. At least I hope we do. And no, jails and prisons do not predominantly hold people that have committed serious violent crimes.

Thank you. We have had, what? Two trans mass shooters? Each incident is tragic, but there's something in common with the vast majority of all of them. That will never be an item of concern, though.
Apocalypse Hound (@apocalypsehound.bsky.social) reply parent
If they were trans, they were trans. I've just seen many come out the door claiming shooters were trans when they aren't. I didn't have any info at that time. People can be trans and homocidal lunatics at the same time. Just too often it's used to demonize the community.

I have wondered that, too. I've seen the one pic with their hair tied out of the way, as if that is a gendered thing.

Also for your physical security, you can get stun guns really cheap. The ones for the public won't knock anyone out but they are noisy AF and that will deter most. They certainly hurt. Not a bad idea to carry when walking your dog in case they get attacked. That's a big fear of mine.

People really need to be better about personal security. 2FA, a second account available for recovery, having your personal devices set up with tracking and the ability to wipe from afar, password managers and quality passwords, not using biometrics to login, etc. #security #cybersecurty
