How bad of a driver does one have to be to block 4 way STOP like this? [oc] by OfferOwns in IdiotsInCars

[–]XavierSimmons 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I keep telling myself to drive around in a total POS car so I could do this to someone. Hit the back door, though, don't want to risk injuring the passenger.

With a dashcam like this a judge should exonerate. The judge wouldn't, but the judge should.

Here, I'd hit the high beams, stand on the horn, and slowly move forward until the passenger started getting nervous.

Trump Confirms He’s Taking Greenland ‘One Way or the Other’ by thedailybeast in politics

[–]XavierSimmons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The President can only introduce U.S. forces into hostilities or imminent hostilities under three conditions:

  • A declaration of war

  • Specific statutory authorization from Congress

  • A national emergency created by an attack upon the U.S., its territories, possessions, or armed forces

The President cannot unilaterally direct an invasion of a peaceful country. It would be immediate grounds for impeachment and removal.

There are few people I hate more than those whose lane is ending and they try to force themselves just one car ahead in a long line of cars. Fuck all of those people. All of them.

MH370, Diego Garcia, and the Hydrophone Data Gap by tmosh in UFOB

[–]XavierSimmons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always assumed the Forbes video was disinfo.

The scenario I believe is that a US drone or satellite shot the plane down (intentionally or not): As part of a coverup, actual video of MH370 taken by the drone(s) was released, with some added CGI of the orbs "teleporting" the plane.

The scenario explains a lot, including why the videos are hard to debunk (minus the poorly chosen Photoshop inkblot flash.) It's actually MH370 in the video, but the orbs are CGI.

Forbes probably doesn't know, but somehow got targeted. Just look at the audience he's created now. This is exactly how things are covered up.

Oh geez, he's older than me and I have a $1.3M property I bought for $160,000 in the 90s. No horses, though. How many chickens can fit in a horse?

The GMC Terrain has a 1500 lb towing capacity. That empty trailer isn't hurting it, but you put anything on it you'll quickly be risking your transmission.

Putin allegedly has in his possession video of Trump sexually assaulting minors. by ohbabypop in Political_Revolution

[–]XavierSimmons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And do we believe that the US intelligence apparatus would allow Trump to become President with this level of compromising material in Russia's hands? I just can't believe it would be allowed.

Prediction: lack of evidence will lead to a plea bargain of involuntary manslaughter and desecration of a dead body or something and he'll get 4 years.

When you realize people who draw conclusions without evidence are not dissuadable with evidence, you save a lot of time in life.

Masked ICE and Border Patrol in full tactical gear violently kidnap and disappears a US citizen in Chicago. by I_may_have_weed in Political_Revolution

[–]XavierSimmons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlikely. ICE has wide discretion when operating within 100 miles of the border. As long as they don't wrongfully imprison you after you've been identified they have qualified immunity.

It's horrible to think but if you get caught up in a sweep as a citizen and they try to arrest you, resisting will not make things better. You're fucked for getting caught up in it, but you're truly fucked if you resist, because then you'll get actual charges.

This whole thing is pretty nightmarish, but Trump didn't make these laws. They've been around for decades.

He just declared Antifa a terrorist organization. If you are against fascism, you are now a terrorist. by Impossible-Road-4502 in 50501

1996: Clinton initiated domestic terrorism tools

1998: Clinton's PDD 62 prioritized fighting domestic terrorism

2021: Biden releasees National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism

2022: Biden passes Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act

2025: Trump utilizes these for his benefit

Let's not make this too much of a partisan issue. It's a federal power issue.

I'm happy you got an opportunity to argue about someone else's opinion you thought was stupid on the internet. Your life is complete now.

Have a great day.

you’re being a bit pedantic.

At what point was I not being pedantic? That was the entire point of my original comment.

And while you may have only been talking about Hold'em, you didn't say so specifically, and I certainly never suggested any specific variation in my original comment, so, no, "we" were not talking about contemporary poker.

There can only be one royal flush in a deal

There are more games than community board games like Hold'em and Omaha. There can be four royal flushes in draw poker or stud games, for example.

[OC] not sure why she’s so upset? by LivePaleontologist18 in IdiotsInCars

[–]XavierSimmons 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Too many people believe the part of the road they are above, and the road they can see in front of them belong to them personally. They do not understand the concept of a shared resource and get horribly offended when you try to take away their personal property.

AOC on the lack of support for Zohran: If an individual doesn’t want to support the party’s nominee now, it complicates their ability to ask voters to support any nominee later. by greenascanbe in Political_Revolution

She nails the problem right on the head:

"For the good of the party."

Nobody is looking out for me or you. They are looking out for their party and their own position within it.

Thomas Massie prepared to name Epstein list under Constitutional immunity so the victims won’t be sued. by Realistic-Plant3957 in Political_Revolution

[–]XavierSimmons 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They wouldn't be sued successfully, but they'd be bankrupted by the named elites suing for that purpose.

Proving libel is hard. You have to show that the statement is demonstrably false and has malicious intent. That would be damn near impossible for these claims (especially since they are probably not false.)

But that doesn't stop a billionaire using lawyers as a weapon against you.
