A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.

You can just see his awful face as they told him what happened to them, pretending to be a caring Christian or however he presents himself. We all know full well he didn't give a shit about them or what happened and will only work to obstruct and serve Trump/himself. He's an awful, awful person.

Footage from a Chinese factory was found on the camera of a downed Russian ‘Geran’ UAV. The video shows testing of the A40 Pro Viewpro camera, manufactured in Shenzhen at the Aotexing Science Park technology hub — the exact site where the footage was recorded.

The issue there is finding someone who resonates with the arseholes who voted for him because there doesn't seem to be another obvious candidate.

This one does not make any sense whatsoever to me.

I would also argue that going somewhere with a loaded gun on full display is threatening in and of itself. Hence why I don't think any civilians should have guns, let alone loaded ones, open carry.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
No, not at all - you're way off. Something being legal or illegal does not automatically decide whether it is morally correct. Hence why I mentioned the difference between rights and obligations. Take extramarital affairs. They are legal. Are they morally right?

Like I said, I am not debating in bad faith. I do appreciate your civility too and commend you for it. I think this exchange was an endorsement of this platform over Twitter/X, say.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Absolutely not. Slavery was legal once - by that logic, you wouldn't question it. The reason your country is in such a state is because some many of you guys only think in terms of rights and laws, not social and moral obligations. Not what is actually right and wrong. That's why you're fucked.

I don't think you or anyone should be owning, let alone openly carrying a gun at all, in any situation, trying to play cowboys in a dangerous environment.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, they shouldn't have done. A lot of things that happened, should not have. But they're dead now and Rittenhouse is a far right posterboy capitalising on the fact that he got away with murder.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm not. I just don't think it is the actual point here.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Which question, be specific.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Open carry is beyond ridiculous. Just a recipe for disaster and escalation and why he ended up killing two people.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
No idea why you want this wild west society where it's fine to shoot someone due to your predetermined set of parameters. To the rest of the world it seems absolutely deranged.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
And most of them managed not to kill anyone. Probably why a 17 year old kid who doesn't know his arse from his elbow shouldn't be out there on his own with a military grade rifle.

No gun and not there - no problem.

Doesn't make it right, moral or the people he killed who otherwise would still be alive, any less dead.

I'd disagree in that vigilantes don't tend to do that but rather take the law into their own hands. He was not hired as a security guard. Was he trained, licensed and old enough to be one legally?
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Which question, sorry? I am debating in good faith - I just happen to completely disagree with you. I think the weapons culture in the US is completely sick and it boggles my mind that the US can watch thousands of children kill and be killed and do nothing about it.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Again, I feel like that is exactly what he was doing. The mere presence of an openly carried firearm is essentially a threat to anyone who sees it, in my opinion.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Sounds exactly like what Rittenhouse was doing to me. Should never have been there.

Top tip - don't be a vigilante, brandishing a firearm in public trying to do a job you aren't trained to do and aren't responsible for and that will never happen.

I'm not down for shooting anyone. That's why I don't think anyone should have guns and that vigilantism is also a bloody stupid idea. Furthermore, something being lawful doesn't make it morally acceptable and I can't see how this was at all.

You're just one big walking pile of contradictions, aren't you? 😂 Presume you're all for 'small government' while being Marxist too, eh? Big left-wing supporter of a MAGA posterboy murderer, defending him taking out an AR15 despite being anti-gun. Like honestly, this is just beyond parody.

According to Rittenhouse. Because the other parties are unable to speak for themselves, he killed them. None of what happened is remotely acceptable in civilised society but that's what you got when you voted for Trump. And you obviously did.

All of what you're saying is complete nonsense 😂 It's comical how far gone you are. Was it the COVID lockdown that sent you down this path?

That's not a remotely legitimate reason to be there, nor was it his job or responsibility. He went there, with a loaded gun, to shoot people and shoot people he did.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
What a load of crap. Why was he there, exactly, with a loaded firearm? Just completely randomly and by chance? He's a murdering lunatic who should be in prison now and for decades. It's an absolutely horrific miscarriage of justice that he's out.

It's very hard to say why they didn't, so I'm not sure how they'd be able to tell tbh but in any case, it was a stupid, self-destructive thing to do. Gaza is a good example because it makes absolutely no sense as a reason given what trump has done has been worse.

Kerosene will be primarily transported by rail, though, so taking out their ability to move it is arguably more important. It's useless if it is just sitting there. Logistics are incredibly important in wars.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
Exactly - which is why it would be difficult for them to bring in the parts to repair the rails, which are already in massively short supply because the orcs can't make them and are difficult to obtain due to the sanctions.
Hopak Shakur (@hopakshakur.bsky.social) reply parent
IMO they are the reason she lost. They had a clear choice of two candidates whether they liked it or not and any abstention or a vote for a third party was a vote for a trump in this situation. I do understand that they wanted a better candidate but there's a time and a place for that argument

If anything, it makes it worse. Being apathetic to the things that putin has done is vile. But more importantly, it's also incredibly annoying to that all of these things happened despite all the warnings that they would. The Americans acting surprised at trump's actions, for e.g, they were told.
