This article implies that you wouldn’t be breaking the law if you shot a cop entering your home unannounced and without a warrant:

It also says that the cops are allowed to kill you, so having followed the law and being innocent will be small comfort.

They kept the records, but treated them as state secrets.

Sorry what?

Are you implying that the 1960s and 1970s were more politically or economically just than today?

In the sense that the wealth disparity was less, okay? Maybe? Is that all that you mean?

Met CO₂ het laaghangende fruit is stoppen met fossiele bedrijven subsidiëren. Dat kunnen we niet doen, waarschijnlijk. 😔

I don’t think that Nazi Germany is a great analogy for the US right now. Honestly there isn’t a very good analogy. The Republicans are using a lot of things from fascist playbooks, but… history doesn’t repeat itself

Caves of Qud. I don’t even like it much, but for some reason I can’t stop.

Is dat waar? Ik dacht de grootste deel van de stikstof probleem komt uit boerderijen? Dus geen oplossing zonder minder vlees productie. Klinkt moeilijk.

My prediction is a war with Iran starting in about a year, to boost GoP poll numbers before the midterms.

Why would you ever take those boots off?!

Amazing

I know, but I still want you to say it.

Why did you mention them not being US citizens then? 🤔

Could be Canadian, eh?

My own reading of that amendment is that it puts requirements on the US government, period. It does not limit things to US citizens.

Of course, I know that’s not the way the courts interpret the amendment. 😔

If it’s the same two women every day then you could say hello and introduce yourself?

World War 1 was so traumatic for Europe because the terrible weapons of mass destruction that they had been using to dominate the rest of the world were suddenly being used on them.

I think this is probably similar for people in the US who are not in a minority now, along the lines you describe.

For real. After the Trump/Biden debate the entire world could see that Biden was too far gone to be President.

Trump can do whatever he wants. The Supreme Court said so, Congress won’t complain, and he has already completed the first round of purges of the executive branch.

He could declare a horse his co-consul and the only downside would be some snarky mentions in some histories written by the senatorial classes.

Can you give some examples? Do you mean the Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage in 2015? The #metoo movement in 2017? Black Lives Matter protests in 2020?

What do you think has gone too far?

You can be both?
