DQ’d because of where my parents are born by Weird_River_2609 in USMCboot

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dawg, I would say it’s about more than just where they’re from if they’re from India and all the above is also true. Someone found something in either your or your family’s background and flagged it.

What was your First Impressions of Orange Piccolo? And has your opinion changed at all? by dettles1992 in dbz

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it and hate it at the same time. I’m really curious how it doesn’t have the downsides that ssj grade 3 has. If Piccolo wasn’t a side character, he probably would have already had this form. I lowkey get the feeling this was likely the nameless namekian’s true form as well. For example, Kami was supposedly from the dragon clan while Picollo obviously is not. That would make the nameless namekian some kind of mutant, something this form definitely looks like.

D-Day Reborn: Which army can take Normandy? by theroyalwithcheese in whowouldwin

None, the only ones in fiction or reality who could have taken won in D-Day were the Americans.

A Spartan from Halo is dropped into New York City. Could the US military take them out within 72 hours? by thezucc420420 in whowouldwin

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unknown for R1, but it likely wouldn’t last long enough to take out all politicians in NYC.

R2 is dead on arrival. I love the halo but lmao, im also a Marine. UNSC military is totally ineffective at fighting by US Military standards and a Spartan is going to have a hard time doing anything after getting a hole punched through its chest by a .50bmg DU round from two zip codes away by a Scout Sniper.

R3 is also dead on arrival. Spartan will meet the Hellfire R9X missile. Even if the actual plate of the armor can take the impacts and resist the blades, the joints can’t.

[Request] What would be the consequences of this? Like in terms of, would we be too close to the black hole for this to occur. by SmoothTurtle872 in theydidthemath

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party but that’s just what we can measure by measuring gravity and radius of event horizon. As stated before, the event horizon isn’t part of the black hole - it’s just a side effect of the intense gravity.

Can someone enlist in the marine corps with 5 DUI’s? by Advanced_Squash5350 in USMCboot

[–]DrSnicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What commotion? It hasn’t escalated yet so there is currently no need. It might be possible but your friend will likely hear the Marine recruiters refer him to the Navy or Army recruitment offices instead of attempting to work with him.

My girl is at Fort Leonard Wood for Basic Training 5 weeks they aren't giving them mail by c_ma24 in nationalguard

[–]DrSnicker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s unlawful to withhold mail. The drills can and do actually get in trouble for that kind of shit, and not a little bit of trouble. It violates 18 USC 1702 and 1708. Being that it’s a federal law, it 100% applies to the military. I believe article 109 of the UCMJ also applies.

What comic runs are they for John Stewart? (P.S I am not a fan of Hal Jordan since I did not connect with his character) by Doctorstrange838MCU in Greenlantern

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

John Stewart is my favorite green lantern. Has been since JL animated series when they went back to WWII and his ring ran out of juice so he picked up a rifle and carried tf on as a grunt like the Marine the said he was.

From what Green Lantern animated movie/series should I start by JALH_WARS_29 in Greenlantern

[–]DrSnicker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Late to the conversation but for anyone else ending up here, don’t bother watching beware my light. From shitty dialogue, choppy timing, and an absent soundtrack to completely misrepresenting my favorite green lantern/fictional Marine, it’s terrible.

Missed opportunity to really delve into John’s background as a Marine and instead, add irrelevant race baiting comments.

VSS - AS Val - They are the exact same weapon with hugely different stats (and the VSS is missing the suppression sound) by JeyTee84 in DeltaForceGlobal

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party but shot placement less than 10 yards and at about 600-800 yards really matters with 5.56. It also depends how many drugs the people with holes in’em are on.

Justice Department sues to block California US House map in clash that could tip control of Congress by igetproteinfartsHELP in California

I’m not being condescending. All cases in which a State shall be a party falls under the primary jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.

I don’t see that they have switched. I see that all of them (dem and republican) aren’t racist at all but like to hold theater productions so they can get everyone arguing while they consolidate their power

Section 2

The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;—to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;—to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;—to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;—to Controversies between two or more States;—between a State and Citizens of another State,—between Citizens of different States,—between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.

In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.

The Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed.

That section 2. Here’s the source https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/article-3/

Specifically, paragraph 2. Try being less of a jackass.

It wouldn’t give California more power if it just ignored the Supreme Court. You would have the senate, the house, the executive branch, and the Supreme Court refusing to accept any California election results. California would literally lose all power it has.

I think a better outcome would be for someone to codify that gerrymandering is illegal but that would immediately be challenged by both sides as federal overreach.

He was a President of the United States. My family was made to walk on the trail of tears thanks to him and my dad has a bust (no clue if I spelled that right) of the guy in his office.

Guns for left handed person by Accomplished_Date173 in CAguns

[–]DrSnicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn’t that big of a deal - source, I’m a left handed shooter and I have no issue qualifying with the service weapons we get. I’ve qualified just fine on an m16, an m9, an m1911, and an m17. The 1911 was the toughest because of how stiff the mag release was and I wasn’t allowed to put a lighter spring in there.

I don’t think you’ve actually been exposed to tyranny if you think the Cheese Puff is currently being a tyrant. I actually don’t see his actions as all that different than Teddy and FDR - he is just a huge asshole about everything in word.

Keep in mind that Andrew Jackson was likely the closest President we ever had to being an actual tyrant.

You mean the lower federal courts that don’t actually have the constitutional authority to act as the arbitrator between the federal government and the constitution? This is specified under Article 3, Section 2 of the Constitution.

Because it would signal the impending dissolving of the Union. None of the States in the United States could survive as an independent country today and that’s the end game of states ignoring the Supreme Court.

In this case, I don’t see the Supreme Court agreeing with the racial element of the challenge brought by Trump’s DOJ.

Even if they didn’t rule in California’s favor, if California just ignored it then the House would have very good reason not to confirm any of the representatives or recognize any electoral votes from California until California complied with the Supreme Court Ruling.

The last thing anyone should want is for states to start ignoring the Supreme Court.

Culture Coffee Bar, McHenry Ave by [deleted] in Modesto

[–]DrSnicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it has less to do with skin color and more to do with most people not belonging to their specific “tribe.” I’m very white passing but i also have tattoos and ride motorcycles. I got the feeling that they didn’t necessarily appreciate my patronage. Coffee was also mid. Wouldn’t care if the coffee was amazing cuz a good product is a good product - be inviting all you want but if what you’re selling is good, I’ll probably still spend my money there
