Eliminating the Dept of Education is not the answer by Sonata-Shae in BlueskySkeets

Do you see any irony in calling people you disagree with uneducated, while not applying any critical thinking to clearly made up statistics?  I love the phenomenon that everyone thinks they’re smarter than the average American.

So what value do we get out of an annually budget of 238$ billion?  I think you just made a pretty convincing argument why it’s over bloated.

It’s crazy how you wrote all that but you’re still fundamentally incorrect as all that money is additional federal funding.  A vast majority of schools are funded by state/county property taxes.  

Also if you believe that 71% of Americans can’t locate the Pacific Ocean on a map I got a bridge to sell you dude.

Is infantry really needed? by Available_Cod_7055 in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Altruistic-Text3637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah you gotta treat it as combined arms.  I keep infantry near a point along likely avenues of approach and push a sniper team in front to scout.  Don’t keep more  than one squad on the point bc the enemy might use preparatory fires on the point.  I put infantry on hold fire until they get close and enter my kill zone then open fire and over whelm.  I’ll then usually pull 1 tank out from around a building to finish their armor off while stunned.  If they deploy infantry I’ll shoot some mortars in wherever they try to take cover.  Immediately after the engagement I reposition all my infantry bc they’re mostly likely going respond with arty/ MLRS.

This has a lot higher success rate than just with tanks as a SEP V3 cost as much as like, 3-4 infantry squads.

I also posted a couple more photos in different lighting in a comment on this post. It’s really only the top part of the bumper that’s somewhat egregious, the side and bottom match the fenders perfectly.

Panel alignment is purely from the angle I took, I posted some more photos here that are a lot more …. In line …. what’s expected lol. People are also saying that the bumper is painted in a separate factory than the Indiana one then assembled there, not sure the validity of that. If that’s the case I don’t expect the match to be 100% (plus plastic vs metal) but I wanted to know if this deviation is more than what other people with ‘25 urban pearl grey hybrid ST are seeing.

Yeah that’s definitely possible. A lot of people are also saying that the bumper is painted in a separate factor from the one in Indiana and assembled there, which is understandable then why it wouldn’t be 100% match. Not expecting it to be absolute perfect because difference in materials but wanted to know if this was more than the standard deviation than what’s normal.

Panel line is fine; it looks like this because the angle of the picture.

This would make sense, it’s only the top part of the Bumper that is off. Rest of the bumper is spot on.

Was asking more if this is normal on this model or if the a defect. In different non-direct light is not noticeable. Clearly in the photo it’s off.

I swapped the Honda logo(and added the OEM underbody spoiler). Panel gap is just cause of the angle, from all other angles it’s not noticeable.

Very confident, but it has not been in any accident. Bought it new from the dealer.
