I think you grossly overestimate this angle, and how people view it probably aligns with whatever angle they already had of the person. the government actively has been cracking down on whistle blowers so it's not like there isn't a rational reason to use those routes. The kinds of penalties...

Well first of all there is blanket censoring of the press, those dead babies never make it to ABC/CBS Prime time so it can sink into the judgement facilities of the average housewife. Those angles aren't covered by "the press" In fact there is a censoring of the press of ANY civilian casualty...

and falsely concluding that bullying some farmer in idaho they can prevent inner city crime which is what the vast majority of the gun crime comes from. actually activley admiting that the groups are unrelated. what you also don't factor in is that by disarming people who are willing to...

that's why it would be kinda swell if we didn't shit it up for everyone, and please we are talking the majority including WASPs, not a minority, there's plenty of reasons why spying on everyone is worse than picking on a minority. you're pretty close to playing a white mans guilt card there...

they did that to OTHER countries, and i'll argue it's not "legal" legal is very vague there, the total information awareness program was most definitley pretended to be defunded then built in secret how "legal" of it.

That's when progressive liberal democrats shed their most special unicorn tears.

None of those things "have to happen" and you are wrong, the murder and crime rate will go up, you will actually make society worse, the police don't ultimatly protect you, and legally can be shown to do and act as such, they just arrest criminals they have no charge to prevent crime. Your...

false analogy you can stop subscribing to soe, you can't stop subscribing to the usa, this is the fallacy of equating market capitalism and democracy. also "I just won't spend my life in an uproar. " what about our children, seriously, i've had 2 co workers say the same thing to me...

yeah just the act of responding to ridiculousness is an act of acknowledging it.

yeah it's not a conspiracy, it's "legal creep" it takes decades and it's a slow process, and it's all going in the wrong direction, honestly we need to go in the opposite direction and have our version of glasnost.

yes I am saying we are a sham of a democracy, what actual power does the public have when both parties agree on something, there is nobody to vote out when both sides agree, or you are "throwing your vote away". it's kind of hard to exercise any power beyond whatever an opinion poll*or a...

The schools are a place where the state manipulates the population on a broad scale, by the time those kids are adults and show up on opinion polls that matter and voting polls that matter they'll have a distorted memory of guns hysteria.

They decided to spy on everyone, it's a choice, how can we "let them do it" without the rulers deciding what they wanted to do.We let them(argueable, we(the public) were deceived at every turn for obvious reasons(watched rats behave differently than when they think they aren't being watched:emoji_nose: go...

No I don't think that but if support for a program is nebulous then You can't blame the public, it was the rulers that made the decision, they could have gone any way they wanted based on opinion at that time, that's what they chose to do. bush/cheney got it signed into law and as cheney...

nowhere do i see 51% support

This is why I say when you polarize politics it turns it into sports teams, the patriot act was never supported by a majority of the population at any time of it's introduction, you blame the supporters but they never had a majority, it's the leaders who made this happen and it's the leaders...

There was a case I'll have to find it again, A man accused the government of spying on him without a reason, the defense(the gov) accidently left a classified document proving they where spying on him in some kind of brief and the man's attorney got it, the judge ruled that even though they...

I am argueing against your point. you're saying nfa trust weapons make murder go up or otherwise your aguement is entirely asinine and pedantic. I'm saying gun demographics and murder are opposite the causality you assert, You have said many times the people who like guns are why the murder...

I was looking for nfa trust weapons involved in crimes so I could gauge the size of this loophole I couldn't find anything, I would say that my viewpoint that the demographics of gun ownership in relation to murder are contrary to your assertion.
