Call me when any future Democratic AG’s do anything to prosecute any of this.
I’ll be holding my breath.


For better, or worse, American gun culture is rooted in legal guns, and gun laws.
Now those guns may end up being trafficked or sold illegally, but that’s not what the gun culture centered around.
The comment I was responding to was clearly a commentary on Texas gun culture, which is part of American gun culture, and again, that’s based around legal firearms, and gun laws.
Armored technicals with 50 cal M2 Brownings, are not tax stampable for civilian use, so definitely not a part of American, or Texan, gun culture.


I didn’t say they were.
My comment was a very specific response to the one above it.


I love shitting on American gun culture, but no, it’s not.
Americans may be allowed to get licenses for automatic weapons, or buy a 50 cal rifle off the shelf, but there’s no combination of tax stamps that will allow you to drive around in an armored technical with a mounted Browning M2 50 cal machine gun.
At least not yet, fingers crossed for the future. /s


So your proposal is to completely scrap how American liability laws work and create something new?
I don’t think that would be all bad, definitely ambitious.
What about the the current victims? How should they receive their restitution in the meantime?

“…the alleged abuses were allowed to continue for years…”
If you’ve lived in a small town than you know that word of this was in many households that stayed silent.
That’s just how small rural towns in America work on issues of abuse.
If you believe this was a completely contained secret, then I have a bridge to sell you.
But yes, many people who are completely innocent will be impacted. What’s your alternative solution?


In a community that’s small, there is no way many of these same families and homeowners weren’t aware of that predator.
The community enabled him and now the community has to pay for that choice.
What’s your alternative solution?


Western policy certainly paved the way for the Islamic revolution, but encroaching Western decadence is not the reason why they’re censoring women’s legs at the moment.


I’m a fan of his single $40 trillion dollar issue platform.
He’s got my vote.


After reading most of the article, because frankly even that was too much, it sounds like it’s people on Twitter trolling them.
Maybe it eventually got some buy-in from the unraptured, but that doesn’t appear to be where the idea started.


The irony of people downvoting you is that they probably also love to hate Tesla, or at least what it’s become under Elon.
I know I do. We all know Elon didn’t make shit, but he still thinks of it as his baby, that’s why I love to see these types of fails.


The Democrats never fail us, we just continually fail them.
Which is also a sentiment extremely popular on Lemmy.world, the biggest instance.


They are modeling this after Apple’s technical response to being forced to allow other app stores.
Would it shock you to learn that Apple revoked the certificates of developers who published apps they didn’t like on other app stores e.g. torrent client?
Google will do the same exact thing with apps that impact the profitability of their native services e.g. Newpipe.


Another win for New Labour.


It’s real. I used to buy Nike brand ecstasy all the time.
If you have a Nike store in your town, I recommend you go in and ask for the triple stacks.


Exactly, and I’m assuming you disliked Charlie Kirk .
So if his token gestures were enough to make you question his devotion to Israel, how do you think they were interpreted and received by his Gen Z audience, those already predisposed to liking him?


Kirk was devoted Zionist, full stop.
However, a large portion of his audience was Gen Z, and their negative views on Israel are more in line with their generation as a whole, then with the standard Republican platform.
So occasionally he had to give them a bone to make it look like he’s wasn’t who he actually was.
My hunch is that the OEM is looking to go after enterprise phone sales and views Graphene as a competitive advantage for that market.
Blackberry seems like a natural fit, but I don’t know what their manufacturing capacity is looking like these days.
