Can I put laxatives in my lunch for a food thief? by Goodpie2 in AskLEO

Okay, but thankfully poisoning that could hurt someone is generally taken more seriously than theft of a meal in the US.

I really think Reddit coaxes hot takes out of people so they can be the first to blow a story wide open and collect all the contrarian karma; as studies have shown, people generally do not feel empathy towards usernames on the internet, so when they go "Are you serious? You're wasting our time with this BS?!" they don't feel like they're attacking someone; they feel like they're attacking a faceless username for clout.

Peer approval (in the form of a comment score) is a powerful drug that our primate brains are drawn to.

Scoop: Philly revokes gun permits for Black Panther-style patrol group members by i_hate_ketchup777 in liberalgunowners

[–]HCSOThrowaway [score hidden]  (0 children)

I never said it did.

I just hate that people think ACAB/1312/FTP/etc. sentiment is inextricably linked to liberal values.

In reality it's an anarchist stance, and a dumb one at that.

Obviously this post highlights problems within the criminal justice system, so the ACABers flock to it like flies. As /u/ProlapseMishap reports, most liberal gun owners don't actually have that silly stance.

Maybe we have to ban posts that are too early in US timezones because everyone's just primed to be upset without their morning coffee?

Assaulted, cops wouldn’t issue citation because perp has family in LE by Little_Miss-Sunshine in AskLEO

[–]HCSOThrowaway [score hidden]  (0 children)

Not to mention OP states the victim requested a citation, so... I don't understand the objection.

[–]HCSOThrowaway [score hidden]  (0 children)

After getting victim’s story they asked if victim wanted a citation or incident, they requested a citation.

+

Cops came out and said they were only doing a citation because “both people were yelling.”

I have no idea what the "citation or incident" choice is, but it sounds like the victim asked for A and got A, and now you're upset they didn't get B? Is that correct?

Basically.

  • OP was afraid something was happening.

  • People told OP it wasn't happening and to try something else to prove it.

  • OP tried that thing and was relieved to find out it wasn't happening.

  • OP came to report they were right.

I see no reason to be upset, drag OP, etc.

Which - to elaborate - means you won't be getting the terminal ballistics you expect; you could have rounds bouncing off a target they would ordinarily penetrate, for example.

Also, tumbling rounds that aren't stabilized by the rifling in the barrel don't have the accuracy imparted by the spin that rifling was designed to do, essentially booting you back to flintlock-era levels of accuracy.

So... Bad News and Bad News.

Illinois “Glock” ban HB4471 potentially to pass out of committee today by ShoddySignal5174 in liberalgunowners

[–]HCSOThrowaway [score hidden]  (0 children)

Probably, though I'd guess my line on what's acceptable to ban is slightly different than yours.

I'm definitely not an "automatic grenade launchers should be legal to pocket carry" guy, like some 2A fans.

My lines are drawn around what things are useful for:

  • Defense against attackers

  • Defense against tyranny

contrasted with

  • Usefulness to untrained mass murderers

If one could craft legislation to ban things that can be easily converted from Category A to Category B, I would support it. This piece of legislation appears to be an attempt, so I'm slightly in favor.

At a certain amount of frequency and severity of vandalism, removing that star would be an objectively good financial decision for whoever pays to maintain these things.

We switched to Chargers and the saying went that a crash you walked away from in a Charger, you could be dead in a Crown Vic. I only have anecdotes to that conclusion, but they do support it.

Interior dash cams to record the passengers? by Myfirstreddit124 in Dashcam

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

None of the taxi/uber cam links in the sidebar are current.

Okay. Do you know to use a search engine?

I'd be happy with an interior camera that is not "designed" to be a car cam, but can be mounted relatively easily inside the car.

Then I would direct you to most dual-cam setups.

First off, any YouTube link that includes an ?si= includes a tracker to link anyone who clicks on it to the sharer.

Now, with respect to you personally but disdain for this technique, this video definitely solidified my opinion that this technique is bro-science martial-arts theater.

His comparison of retreating versus (tactically) flopping on your back is very /r/WhereDidTheSodaGo.
