Oh yeah then why do my glasses have two pieces of polycarbonate lenses

Probably start with buying them dinner first
Upkeep can be a PITA, mentally as well as financially.
I found out that local housing co-ops offer 3 bedroom 2 baths for rent at like 800, honestly I’d prefer that over owning a home.
Sorry, the website doesn’t make it clear to me, what are these numbers indicating they’re a recipient for? Are these direct donations from Israel?
Which meds are you referring to? He did an insulin price cap, does that count?
Well one is far more feasible to get than the other. Half the country supports a man who is openly soliciting bribes from oil companies ffs.
Hasn’t this been in the works for over a year now, with the congressional hearing a while back?
Feels pretty bad if 2/4 years of stuff doesn’t count.
On one hand, some really are hilarious, on the other it irks me that these start to normalize deep fakes.
There’s a nuanced difference between odds of being someone being killed by x versus y, and the number of deaths resulting from x vs y.
My hunch is that spraying into a crowd with an automatic results in more deaths at a faster rate than someone actively aiming, but quite frankly my personal belief is that having a knife severely limited the number of deaths when compared to any firearm.
To put it succinctly, just because you can’t hit your intended target with an automatic firearm doesn’t mean the danger goes away - oftentimes bystanders get hurt, which is mentioned in the quote you brought up.
I’d say the reason the military did that is probably because they’re not shooting into crowds of inattentive, unsuspecting bystanders, and you can’t really compare military tactics to a dude shooting up a mall where folks are unarmed, but this is getting pretty far into the theoretical weeds.
Inaccurate, but it doesn’t say anything about less lethal.
Bystanders and buildings have been struck by the bullet spray of modified Glocks
You are once again assuming that the individual is aiming at particular targets, but instead they’re in a shopping center with strangers.
Finally, even with your provided one year of data, it’s correlation vs causation.
Okay this is a blatant disregard for correlation vs causation, with a side of no shared data to boot.
What I’m saying is that depending on the shopping center, you could very easily “shoot everywhere” and still hit many people, for example, the bump stock fueled 2017 Vegas shooting.
I definitely haven’t, lol. My assumption is this guy wouldn’t need to aim to hit folks in a shopping center, but that’s just a guess. Given that automatics are illegal where I’m from they’re kind of a mythical concept haha.
I personally think I’m grateful this guy didn’t have a firearm of any sort. There’s a picture of a guy armed with a bollard having a standoff with him to protect his family. This would be a very different article if the slasher was armed even with a pistol.
Probably because in a shopping mall you don’t need to be accurate in the slightest to kill others.
Okay, so now that we’ve cleared that up, we’re still selling Ukraine arms, as of 4 days ago…
Genocide Joe does abuse his presidential powers. He does it for israel /when Republicans are blocking their weapons. He does not do it for Ukraine. /
Can we talk about the conditional you put on your statement here?
Are you just going to pretend that doesn’t exist?
Point of clarification - yes, the individual may be employed as a security guard elsewhere, but he was importantly NOT a security guard in this situation. He’s just a dude who dropped his kid off for a class nearby and deemed it necessary to “patrol” the area to go on power trips. He’s a bully with a gun.
