The issue then was a standing army. Most Americans opposed the concept bitterly, assuming it would lead to an authoritarian state. In times of war, the idea was to raise an army of citizen soldiers who would return to civilian life asap Even after the war, the standing army was a small group meant to protect the president and congress.

There are a ton of “expat” Russians lobbing in Germany. Enjoying the west freedom but still “loving” Russia.

Oh, I wasn’t talking about this case. The Reggie guy does not exist. I was arguing against the user who said investigators have tons of ways to verify it was certainly a specific person even though they used cash. I was just adding that they could be walking (not sure why everyone keeps mentioning gas stations- normal corner markets are common), and that the camera might show the person looks and dresses like most people in the area.

People might take you a bit more seriously if you didn’t jump from one argument to another when confronted with a little pushback.

Interviews with all parties, videos, etc. they don’t fuck around with this stuff.

So what’s the appropriate response to one country invading and destroying another without a reason? What do we do when they invade the next country in line?

Thought that was about the Asian country Palestine for a moment.

Agreed. I see a lot of Ukrainian flags outside the houses of everyday conservative people. They may never flip Democratic, but they will definitely get pissed and stay home.

But the water is fine

You need to think that through a little. I’m not a fan of nuclear Armageddon.

Agreed, but it’s a government agency nonetheless that is simply here to placate people. It has no power to actually DO anything, which is why I think it’s a joke.

So apparently a lot of them are either Russian immigrants, or remnants of the East Germam political parties that leaned heavily towards Russia. The only reaso. You don’t see a lot of Soviet flags and Nazi stuff like at other protests is that the police were confiscating them.

That's some first-rate writing right there. Sheesh

I’m just saying there are plenty of street corner bodegas in my area. Cash only for lotto. Many people that buy lotto tickets are poor, and they don’t even have cars. Sometimes there are no neighboring businesses- just old houses that definitely don’t have Ring cameras. Lots of these junkies that buy lotto tickets look the same- baggy clothing, and wearing a hat with a hoodie on top. Probably even wearing sunglasses inside the market no matter the time of day. Basically Jesse Pinkman prototypes from Breaking Bad. No snitching culture is rampant.

Not a big deal though. If you possess the ticket, and you at least match the profile- you should obviously get the money. Any other scenario is just speculation or hypothetical. No entering of a debit pin, no use of a credit card, no license plate, generic profile that matches 70% of the street profile, cash payment- no DNA 🧬!

As for the hold up in payment, there is no disclaimer that says you can’t buy a lotto ticket in cash, while walking, while obscuring your face on camera, and look like a certain profile.

Meanwhile as someone that lives in Memphis, Tn... we are way overdue for one. Several decades in fact, or if you listen to others well over a century.

But this is all a moot point if somehow the fault has shutdown or w/e (is that even possible?).

My earthquake app doesn’t even notify me for a 3.7

And in other news East Palestine high school basketball and football teams are expected to go to state as all other teams have forfeit to avoid going to East Palestine.

People have given their lives so that these people have the right to do this.

Not even mad.

It doesn't distinguish between the militia and the citizenry. The purpose is to secure the state. You have the right to bear arms as part of a well regulated militia. That's your right as a "regular citizen".

This amendment has been completely perverted by traitors over time where now, people like you think it means that you, as an anti-government terrorist, dangerous lunatic, secessionist, white supremacist, serial killer, mass murder, or whatever other rogue element in society you belong to, believe that you have a constitutional right to threaten the security of the state.

They made stew out of her?
