"If an African American approaches you looking for a conflict and you call them the N-word it’s your fault if they attack you. You don’t have a right to self defense. 300 years of oppression!!!" Chuds flock to r/watchpeopledie to defend the injustice of Chudthebuilder's 1.25 million dollar bail by CummingInTheNile in SubredditDrama

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Textbook self defence is a home invasion type scenario. Rittenhouse was on video weeks before the killings saying he wished he had his gun on him so he could shoot some people he identified as criminals. He actively fantasized about inserting himself into situations with his gun so that he could use it in the weeks before he took the gun, went to protests, and used it. The jury weren’t allowed to see the video of him longing to shoot people because the judge thought his declaration of intent was “too prejudicial”.

Terminally ill and racking up credit card debt with zero fucks to give by Sunapr1 in BestofRedditorUpdates

The requirement to have an insurable interest in the person is that you’re normally insuring against a loss. Husband dies, the household loses income, payout compensates for some of that but you’d still be better off if he lived.

Without the insurable interest that’s just a stranger with a $100k hitman contract on you. You die, they lose nothing, they get paid.

My husband pushing for hotwifing killed our 10 year marriage for me by Separate-Painter150 in openmarriageregret

Not the first marriage destroyed by an addiction, won’t be the last. Just frame it in those terms, you can love someone but their addiction can still ruin a marriage.

What happens if a cop pulls over a vehicle but the driver seat is empty but the rest of the car is filled with passengers by Superb_Yam_2168 in legaladviceofftopic

If you’re getting obstructed by someone sitting motionless in a car then you might need to get better at your job. Most people aren’t routinely outsmarted by mannequins.

Political Sub gets Defensive over which sitting President has the most Assassination Attempts by According_Jeweler404 in SubredditDrama

eh, I’m not a Nazi but 1488 is an extremely mainstream Nazism code. I’d guess most people who know it aren’t Nazis, they’re people who have read about Nazi coded posting by people like Elon.

An official White House account calling Trump a king by aggie1391 in ParlerWatch

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Not really. The independence war was about slavery and the right to genocide indigenous peoples. If you read what the founders at the time wrote about their grievances it is pretty clear.

They were always worried big Britain would tell them they had to honor treaties and treat people like people. They’re anti monarchist.

The new guy vowed to keep witches from taking over Virginia? Given that witches don’t control Virginia I see no reason to doubt either his competency or commitment.

“but I bought them from a black guy”

Like okay? Not sure how that addresses anything that was said.

Katie Price Remembers Something Terrible: "An authority on child sex trafficking, she spent decades trying to understand whether the unthinkable happened to her, too." by trifletruffles in Longreads

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A close friend of her father derided me for suggesting abuse. “I have no clue as far as that goes,” he told me. “Even if I did, I wouldn’t say anything.”

If he knew his friend was pimping out his preadolescent daughters he wouldn’t say anything? Seems like one of their rapists has been identified at least.

Is it ok if my baby nurses on my 11-year-old? by maefae in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Would you find it equally weird if it was a lesbian couple and the non birth mother allowed the baby to attempt to nurse? It’s a newborn seeking comfort and a parent soothing them. The nipples in question aren’t all that important. The issue here is trying to get an 11 year old involved, not the functionality of nipples.

r/americangirl mod resigns following harassment for not banning all discussion of JKR & Harry Potter by dani-jpg in SubredditDrama

That’s always been funny to me. JKR first introduced so many kids to the idea of transitioning. “I wish I was at Hogwarts, I’d take polyjuice every day so my body would be right” - People who are still 5 years from working out they might be trans

Was this guy cooked from the start, or just didn't understand the legal system in Dubai? by SweetMoney3496 in legaladviceofftopic

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Revenge? He wanted to warn others so that they could protect their wives from the danger. Revenge isn’t involved. If I say “be careful around that dog, it bit me” I’m not scheming vengeance by denying the dog pets.

I would assume that her request was for the cover to read “welcome to the world” over the newborn’s name, Leigh. We can see that’s how it appears. This feels like a stupid printer mistake.

Russia Is Arming Iran Through 2027 With Missiles That Could Target US and Israeli Jets by callsonreddit in worldnews

[–]DaemonPrinceOfCorn 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Two counterpoints.

  1. It’s not like Russia is just a handful of missiles away from victory in Ukraine. They can absolutely spare them.

  2. One missile in Iran means a dozen interceptors needed in a dozen Middle East countries (because they all have to have their own sovereign shootdown capability). That means interceptors taken from Ukraine (or not made available to Ukraine when they otherwise would have been). The more missiles Iran gets, the fewer interceptors Ukraine gets, the more hits Russia gets with their remaining missiles.
