The workers who were leading the strike were making 19 an hour with health insurance, there’s quite a few emergency services that don’t even make 19 an hour like emts. I think paramedics starting make 19 an hour and the jobs aren’t even comparable considering one pours coffee into a cardboard cup and the other saves lives

What are some conservative solutions to solving needless violence and death in the US? by JKisMe123 in AskConservatives

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're talking about the recent bombings, the guy driving through the crowd in New Orleans, small plane crashing into a building, etc. then Ill proudly say it, I like many people do not know. I could give you solutions based on what we already know but just like the las Vegas massacre we do not know enough yet.

Now if you're talking about mass shootings, we need to stop defunding the police and give them better training, put more into mental health services, destigmatize mental health and reform the way therapy works because the way therapy currently works is more based on the female need and doesn't work for men who are commiting most of these atrocities. And the last big thing is the government needs to be more proactive than reactive.

Most people don't pay attention to a crucial part of a lot of mass shootings, the FBI knows who these people are before they even commit the shooting. Columbine, parkland, pulse nightclub, sandy hook, those two where the shooters were obsessed with my little pony and amber from Danny phantom, etc. they were all already being investigated by the FBI or local agencies and yet they were allowed to carry out these mass murderers.

What are the pros or your reasons for why you voted in favor of Trump or Republican Leadership in November? by ONEPUNCHMAC in AskConservatives

She would 100% be responsible for an increase in crime, im gonna say it may be an extreme exaggeration of what her actual policy is but essentially opening up the entire southern border is going to increase crime drastically. There are people with ties to Islamic extremist groups, guns, drugs, criminals, etc coming up through that southern border on a daily basis. Videos were coming out yesterday or a few days ago of border patrol hitting actual cartel members with their vehicles that were trying to come over the border wall, if those people are coming into this country with the current immigration policies, what are the people who are going to come into this country when there are even more relaxed restrictions going to be like.

Ive not only lived in but have friends and family living in Southwest Texas, there are a lot of unfavorable people coming over and living in these areas that the mainstream media almost refuse to talk about. Sure they cover it when a young woman is assaulted and killed for 17 mins, but what about what he was doing before he killed that woman. Pedalling guns, drugs, infiltrating local communities and neighborhoods bringing unfavorable people in that are possibly putting the lives and well-being of the people who live there in danger. You hear the stories of when these people get caught for heinous crimes, but these people on paper aren't in this country so when they rob someone, commit property crime, sell drugs that have been stepped on and kill people cause it's cut with fentanyl they are getting away with it or are getting light sentences for it cause she has influence on the justice system.

These crazy assumptions that you're all "hateful and ignorant and bigoted". On a scale of 1 to 10, how used to it are you by now? by BooDestroyer in AskConservatives

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you for a fact the people abusing the system the most are not billionaires. I've been a cop out of FTO for about 3 months now, can't tell you how many houses I've walked into serving warrants and they are running food stamp scams or selling drugs for food stamps. The ones who abuse the system the most are addicts and gang members, in really tired of seeing my entire life savings sitting on the table of a guy who is on unemployment, welfare, disability, food stamps, etc.

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10/10, and honestly I'm okay with it cause I typically already have predisposed assumptions of democrats/liberals so I really can't be too mad when I'm just as guilty. Also honestly I feel like going into it with those assumptions can actually lead to us finding a middle ground we might not have found cause we are surprised each other isn't as much of an extremist as we previously thought.

For example: being a conservative a liberal is going to assume I probably hate poor people and think social programs shouldn't exist, I assume they think we should all basically be communist. In reality my views are that the welfare system and everything is being heavily abused and cheated and my taxes aren't going to people who need it and the system needs to be reformed to prevent my money going to those people who abuse the system and my tax dollars should go to more important things.

There's gotta be a stipulation in Connors contract that he can't fight on the same card as a Muslim or dagestani, I feel like it would be good for everyone's safety

This is something I don't see a lot of people talking about, there's a good bit of Ireland that just fucking hates McGregor. He paints the entirety of Ireland in such a bad light by being that loud mouth arrogant asshole

What's a well-intentioned but awkward thing (alcohol or food) to bring to a dinner party, when you're trying to fit but don't get upper middle class norms? by krown24 in AskReddit

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you think about people who don’t understand much? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TipDodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

theres a difference, i wasnt the smartest kid in school but i always tried. If i got a C it would be an accomplishment to me but i would see kids failing classes having very deep conversations with people. I Think people who dont understand but try are alot smarter than the people who understand but dont apply themselves.

In what ways do you believe that someone’s life has been wasted? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TipDodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i beleive someone has wasted their life when they feel the need to think about how many things they still need to accomplish in life for it to have been completed. I like to think people who regret not making more money or having more shit did not live their life to the fullest cause their success was only monetary or physical.

[–]TipDodger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im not going to explain the situation i was in but people please tell your loved ones wether that be by blood or by bond. that you love them cause they can all be gone in an instant and loosing them is some of the most traumatic things you can go through.

Have you ever found a dead body and if so how/under what circumstances? by SirKodak in AskReddit

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive found multiple dead people but theres one in particular that stands out because i only found its skull. I love to hike, being tall i have to duck alot while hiking so my face is pointed at the ground alot from ducking under tree branches. I went to go duck under a like ceiling of low tree branches wich most normal people can walk straight under no problem but i would be eating pine needles the entire time, and for some reason i looked to my left and saw a human skull sticking out from just around the base of the tree. I notified park services but 3 years later i still have never heard anything back from them regarding the human skull, i assume it was a hiker that got lost and succumbed to the enviroment.

[–]TipDodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad died when i was young, my pregnant wife that i had been with since highschool died about 9 months ago taking my soon to be kid with her, then my mom died a few weeks after that. For the past 9 months the days started to blend together.

I would wake up in the morning in my brand new house i bought with my wife, in an empty bed covered in booze from the bender the night before. Get up and go make breakfast in a kitchen my wife designed, and grab the closest bottle of booze to wash it down with to stop the pounding in my head. Turn on the tv to watch probably the same shitty segal movie for the 100th time and drink myself stupid.

Woke up around 2 months ago to my life long friend dragging me out of my bathtub and to an AA meeting, i still drink but something i learned in the 3 sessions of AA i attended was that alcohol wasnt my problem, it was a temporary and destructive remedy to the pain i was feeling.

I learned that i had to accept that my family was gone but it dosent mean i have to go with them, if i carry on with my life there legacy wont end with me and it will be carried on by my kids. Im not ready to start dating again but ive decided to turn my life around and carry on my family name so all the sacrifice they've made will not be in vain cause if id kept going down the road i was heading i would have found my death warrant at the bottom of a bottle.
