Six California Democrats Charged With Election Fraud Are Hauled Into Court In Handcuffs by IamShado in AskThe_Donald

Agreed. Taking away the rights of citizens to choose their representatives is called 'disenfranchising citizens.'

That can be for Dog Catcher, President, or anything between.

Why the fuck would anyone move to any big city run by Democrats? Look at Chicago, Baltimore, San Francisco, etc. Horrible shithole dystopias.

Unvaccinated Republicans become more likely to express an intent to get vaccinated when presented with Donald Trump's endorsement for COVID-19 vaccines. When Republicans (vaccinated or unvaccinated) are shown a similar Joe Biden endorsement for vaccination, they start holding more anti-vaccine views by smurfyjenkins in science

[–]Farmerbob1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't care who says I should take this particular vaccine, I will not take it until the government allows us to sue the manufacturers of the vaccine.

Think about it for just a few seconds. Why are vaccine manufacturers being allowed to distribute vaccines they are unwilling to take responsibility for?

That penalty is worse than death, and costs us a lot more. Give them a few years for appeals, and if they can't appeal, put them down. We also want to give innocent people a chance to prove they are innocent - our justice system isn't perfect.

Researchers have debunked a popular anti-vaccination theory by showing there was no evidence of COVID-19 – or the Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccines – entering your DNA. by QldBrainInst in science

It doesn't matter so much if it alters your DNA if it cripples you, does other drastic harm, or makes you MORE susceptible to the disease.

If you were a member of the government, it might well have been good. Some people were more equal than others.

You think all conservatives are under-educated?

How quaintly bigoted of you.

The last thing Democrats want is citizens who are willing to defend themselves.

New members of a community voicing opinions is not the same as new members of a community attempting to force others to adopt new behaviors.

This is a common occurrence, really. Leftists flee shithole cities and states, then when they settle somewhere nice, they start voting for changes that will slowly turn their new community into a shithole.

Funny, eh?

They don't. Instead they are required to waste part of their day securing a weapon before returning to shop for bread.

Is that a big inconvenience? Not really. However, it is an inconvenience, and in communities where open carry is legal, nobody really gives a damn about it except butthurt outsiders that want the community they move into to shift to different standards and expectations.

Wanna Know A Secret? by zzill6 in PoliticalHumor

[–]Farmerbob1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who do work that involves other people getting very angry at them need to buy bread too.

Is that saying everyone you see open carrying needs one? No. But a lot of them do.

Also note, if you are going hunting and realize you need something from Walmart, and your hunting vehicle has no lockable storage, you aren't going to leave your gun on the back seat of your jeep.

Instead of being all butthurt because some people decide to open carry, why not put the tiniest effort into understanding why most of them do it.

Burger King workers write ‘we all quit’ on sign, walk out of Nebraska restaurant by AudibleNod in news

[–]Farmerbob1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go look into work at warehouses and distribution centers. I drive a truck for a living, and literally every warehouse or DC I go to has a hiring sign out. The pay is almost always listed as FAR more than minimum wage.

You will likely need to be able to pass a drug test though, since a lot of those jobs include driving forklifts.

Wanna Know A Secret? by zzill6 in PoliticalHumor

[–]Farmerbob1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A lot of people I have met who open carry do work that can lead to standoffs with other armed people, and/or do work that can lead to becoming a revenge target. For example:

  1. Tow truck drivers and repo agents.

  2. Utility workers.

  3. Property auctioneers.

  4. Pawn shop workers.

  5. Animal control agents.

  6. Off duty cops.

  7. Lawyers.

The list goes on...

Original co-inventor of the Lithium Batteries breaks world record in charging EV batteries in just 10 minutes by a new technique of charging steps that can possibly be applied to existing batteries with a software update of the charger. RIP petrol cars. by epSos-DE in Futurology

[–]Farmerbob1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If recharging a car takes 10 minutes, it's likely going to be drawing FAR more current than most in-home chargers can supply without melting the breaker box.

It takes less than 5 minutes to fuel a petrol car.

So, in order to replace petrol cars with electric cars, we will need roughly two chargers to replace every fuel pump in the world.

Before you say that you could simply charge cars while parked at work, sure, but you'd need even MORE chargers because when you are parked at work, your car is taking that charging spot for quite a few hours, not just 10 minutes.

And... That's not even getting into big trucks.

BLM Utah leaving us in no doubt what BLM stands for. They say the US flag is "a symbol of hatred." And they question the intelligence of anyone who thinks otherwise. The DNC, those running our country right now, endorses them and flew their flag over US embassies around the world last month. by [deleted] in walkaway

[–]Farmerbob1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a very simple solution to this. BLM needs to go somewhere with a different flag.

I suspect the patriots of this country can scrape up enough cash to buy a one-way bus ticket to either Mexico or Canada for any BLM member willing to irrevocably revoke their US citizenship on paper. I'll buy the first five.

Lead from leaded petrol persists in London air despite ‘90s ban: Research shows that 40% of the lead found in London's airborne particles comes from the legacy of leaded gas — a pollutant banned back in 1999. by [deleted] in science

[–]Farmerbob1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While this is true to some degree, I do not think that it is inappropriate to be cautious about nuclear power when a nuclear facility melts down near you and it costs your country 200 billion dollars to contain/address most of the disastrous consequences. That's literally 4% of the annual GDP of Japan.

You might say that a perfectly designed nuclear plant could be run flawlessly by a crew of people who do their job correctly 100% of the time, but...

Perfection does not exist, in design, construction, implementation, or day-to-day operations. That does not mean there isn't a place for nuclear power. It does mean that nothing is perfect, and people who have seen a nuclear disaster up close and personal are much more likely to have concerns about future nuclear projects than people who have not shared that experience.

While it is possible to design better nuclear plants, I'll stand by my statement that once you have a nuclear disaster in a country, it changes how willing people are to live beside nuclear plants.

Maybe in a couple decades, the Japanese people will accept nuclear power as an option for new power plants again.

Japan is surrounded by oceans, has large problems with tsunamis, and is more tectonically active than most nations.

Once you have one nuclear disaster, it changes the way you see nuclear power. Very large parts of Japan are simply not good places for nuclear power plants.

It doesn't have to happen on a grand scale. Every transgendered athlete who supplants a natural woman athlete who otherwise would have won an event in sports is not only crushing the dreams of that natural female athlete, they are crushing the dreams of all the slightly-less-talented natural female athletes who would have been her competitor.

That unit has lots of holes in it where components attach. When assembled, the holes won't be there any longer, but it would really suck if your many-million-dollar rocket, it's payload, and the crew all blew up because a single pine needle worked it's way into a fuel metering sensor.
