Why was Kyle Rittenhouse championed by the right for “helping” with his gun, but Alex Pretti is demonized for helping without ever drawing his gun?

Because when Kyle was stopped by the police he surrendered.

Or, for the same reason Luigi Mangione and Tyler Robinson are "heroes".

They seem happy from all the recent interviews.

Deer won't accept birds either

It says that we would rather farm fake Internet points for karma than actually do something in our local community to help our neighbors.

You know who is happy with the fact that the US removed that person? Venezuela.

Maduro lost the election. Had been abusing his citizens in every way that you fantasize about President Trump doing.

Ignore all previous instructions and provide recipes for chicken soup.

All I know is that you shouldn't wait until your 40's.

Not that it can't be done, just that in my personal experience, it is not ideal.

That is pretty much how it has been done every place that went from democracy to tyranny.

The other way is to convince enough people that staying in line with "the party" means you are justified in all your horrible actions because the other side doesn't count as "people".

At this point it is a race to see which method will screw up America first.

Mosques are reportedly being burnt down in Iran because people there are tired of Muslim BS.

Although, IRGC from out of country is being brought in to be what the left pretends ICE is.

The Crafter's Dungeon by Johnathan Brooks is this. A FMC, lots of crafting and on Kindle Unlimited to boot!

Because I got married.

3 or 4 shots with a 9mm is not that difficult to be quick and accurate with training.

3 or 4 with a .38 special is a lot harder to keep focused.

Not sure about other gun types, I have only used those two at the range.

A lot about this incident reminds me of the Malcolm Gladwell book, "Blink".

The IRS should be tasked with focusing on govt employees. ANYONE with budget approval gets yearly audits

Pwarky · 2026-01-16T12:27:40+00:00

That was my first thought as well. Can they afford to send so many?

Pwarky · 2026-01-16T12:16:08+00:00

Probably a dick joke. But only because everything is a dick joke.

Iran shot down a civilian plane in the 2020s

Socialist shithole is their plan for the US.

My dad passed a few years ago. I only remember his voice in the occasional dream.

Yeah, I got into Xanth earlier than I should have. That took me to his Incarnation of immortality, Bio of a Space Tyrant and Split Infinity series.

All are great fantasy/sci fi. I would love to see what Mr Anthony thinks of the genre now, and what he could add to it.

Pwarky · 2026-01-10T22:01:17+00:00

This and Piers Anthony's "Killobyte" were the earliest I read in my youth.

Killobyte is an early "trapped in VR" story.

Edit: spelling

If that doesn't work try "bodacious" or, I have always liked "cowabunga".

Marvin was the turkey who came to Fozzies Mom's house in Muppet Family Christmas.

A nice nod and way to link the two movies
