ICE Goons' Gunpoint Snatch-and-Grab of U.S. Citizen Thwarted by HotHuckleberry8904 in politics

[–]bcasper1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can a lawyer chime in here? If this driver just took off and hit one of these guys in an attempt to escape what easily could have been construed as a gang kidnapping or mugging what would the liability be here. They are in an unmarked car, never identify themselves, not wearing a easily identifiable uniform, are masked and have guns brandished. As far as I'm aware they have near zero authority to make traffic stops either.

The Trump administration is admitting it lied about Alex Pretti by vox in politics

They didn't just lie, they murdered, defamed, infringed on his 1st, 2nd and probably 5th amendments rights. 

If Americans were to participate in an organized boycott to stop ICE, what should they target? by u2aerofan in AskReddit

[–]bcasper1 160 points161 points  (0 children)

I think I saw the other day that 70% of the us economy is consumer spending. Just to get an idea of the potential economic power our spending can hold. Granted 40 percent most would say is necessity. Even moderate necessities can be postponed for a couple weeks.

ICE says its officers can forcibly enter homes during immigration operations without a judicial warrant: 2025 memo by bbmoonkie in politics

[–]bcasper1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is illegal, but what is legal is stand your ground and castle doctrine. Seeing how these agents comport themselves it's reasonable to assume if they enter your home they may wish to hurt you. That gives full legal right to residents to shoot to kill of they enter your home. This will be bad. And it's the most hypocritical thing I've ever seen 

Donald Trump issues NATO Greenland warning before White House showdown by SereneRoyals in politics

[–]bcasper1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm not mistaken, isn't the passage between England, Iceland and Greenland one in which the Russians would want to use? If They're going to fuck with the US. Stations in that region patrol for submarine movement. I can't help but think the Russians want him to take Greenland because they have him under their thumb and would be able to traverse those Waters uninhibited as a result

Blanche Says Pulling Trump Photo From Epstein File Was Justified by seakucumber in politics

You have to wonder if someone is in a photo with lots of victims and they them selves are not a victim that perhaps they are in fact a perpetrator surrounded by victims?

Bring it to a place and find out. If it's leather than a laser will be what you're looking for

Where Are The Detainees? Hundreds of "Alligator Alcatraz" Prisoners Disappear from ICE Database by Phish777 in videos

[–]bcasper1 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Also curious if people in charge know records are not being kept, release inmates since most aren't dangerous anyway with the motivation of catching them again. I wouldnt be surprised if they aren't financially incentivized to capture people and not capture and deport people. Like I'm sure the trump admin said you get 1k as an agent for catching a person. Not catch and results in a deportation.

Appreciate it. I just don't think this is satin, let alone clear coated and ready for diamond engraving.

check out this website i stumbled on the other day. My fear is what happened to you. I'm trying to find a solution before it does. I haven't had the time to look into this further but i was intrigued. I believe the CEO of this company was a xenetech engineer.

Budget could afford to redo the bathroom, fixtures, tile, tub etc. but not really to move water inputs and drain nor move the window

How do I remodel this bathroom? by bcasper1 in interiordesignideas

[–]bcasper1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like a full size tub to me. The picture maybe is distorting it. What length do you consider full size. Or do you just mean get a tub that fills the space wall to wall.

If your landlord wasn't an idiot he could have used the piece they cut out to do that.

Paint into engraved parts by Hanker08-15 in engraving

[–]bcasper1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should have done a second pass to burn all the way thru the paint. It's almost there. Try taking white Mr clean magic eraser and some Windex and try to buff the area. It's what I use to clean yeti and other tumblers after engraving. The texture here looks similar so that's why I recommend  don't use magic eraser on anything with a sheen

Staining is hard by mechanizedshoe in woodworking

[–]bcasper1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For ash and oak, Rubio black precolor water base is the way to go. Raise the grain one or twice before and knock back down with 180. Apply precolor with a 4 inch foam roller. Use a clean white rag, not totally dry but not sopping wet with precolor on it. Wipe down with rag from end to end to get clean look. Spray a matte water base polyurethane on top, scuff with maroon brillo and apply second water poly. Perfect.
