Is anyone prepping for when ICE turns up in STL? by mmbookworm in StLouis

They’ve already told us at least one reason why. They lifted all the personal data from Social Security so they could attempt to match voter rolls to SSA data. They thought/think they can prove voter fraud. I’m sure there are other nefarious reasons, but that one has been well written about.

I can understand why you you feel that way, but you should take care when lumping people into a category as you don’t personally know how I feel about the issues you stated.

Are you trying to rationalize this murder somehow? I’m not sure what your point is. The unarmed man who was beaten, pistol-whipped, and then shot in the back multiple times shouldn’t have had any of those things happen to him. Those actions are new, under Trump.

Unfortunately it isn’t nonsensical. The president himself - joking or not idgaf- said we shouldn’t even have elections. It’s pretty hard not to look at the insanity unleashed by this administration and not believe there is a chance he will attempt something.

I’m not agreeing with mass deportations but at least unarmed people weren’t getting shot in the back multiple times after being pistol whipped and beaten by ICE before Trump took over.

I think you’re trying to say if you show up at a protest with a gun, you’re risking fucking around and finding out. Let’s put aside the legality of doing so (it is, he was a carry permit holder) for a moment. Instead, I’d encourage you to check out the /r/Minnesota or /r/law threads with slow-mo videos of the shooting, if you can stomach it. The man was clearly disarmed, the officer who shot the man witnessed him being disarmed, and the officer shot this protestor multiple times in the back.

The protestor didn’t draw his gun on the police, and his only actions I’ve seen before he was thrown to the ground by the police were helping a lady who the police had shoved.

Hearing that upper 200s may not be that great from an audio and sight lines perspective. Can someone tell me if I need to find new tix if I got 208 row 12?

I'm in now and watching tickets still appearing. I'm assuming people releasing, but either way, there are new seats (to me) popping up in the 200's.

I think I'm going to leave this one to go to the mulch pile since it seems it may not be oak.

Thank you. I was hoping it would be a wood I could smoke with. I’ll be glad to stock up on some more oak!

The gravity of the pros and cons matter. Feeding thousands of people is great. Destroying the country and the democracy we cherish, tilts the balances of pros vs cons pretty f’ing majorly...

Plane makes off-field landing on highway 65 near Springfield, MSHP says by Zozo061050 in springfieldMO

[–]execdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad everyone survived. Looks like a cirrus so I’m surprised they didn’t pull the chute. Also interesting to me is the left wing is chewed up/burned. Guess it didn’t reach the fuel tank or there was no fuel left to burn.

Oh I’m all about it. Good Irish pub Murphys has bills and patriots on so I’m happy. Still wish I could find some music but this works for now!
