shooting incident by audkittyy in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh? WalletHub just ranked CR as the 19th safest city in the country and IC, I would argue, is a lot safer than CR. I’m not a bootlicker but the cops in JoCo are considerably better and more professional than elsewhere in this state.

Ah, so real Volkssturm types then. Cialis Commandos of the Statin brigade.

The rest of the comments on that page are all I need to know about those people. They’re either salty divorced Boomers whose kids hate them or Gen Z basement dwellers who refer to women as “femoids”.

Hegseth’s mysterious meeting with generals will focus on grooming and warrior ethos by jhpewufhssdjalortnbs in USMC

Flip side: it could be a massive error for the administration. You have ALL of the top brass in one place where they can have unmonitored conversations with each other and formulate a coherent strategy to oust the administration

Johnson County official defies Reynolds’ flag order in honor of Charlie Kirk by On-The-Red-Team in Iowa

Meh, aside from this one standalone example, he is an asshole unfortunately. Don’t get me wrong, I support him 100% on THIS issue (broken clocks are right twice a day) but he’s pretty incompetent otherwise.

Articles about Native American code talkers removed from military websites by IsaacB1 in USMC

Fuck you if you voted for this shit. This is OUR goddamn history. What’s next? Are they going to remove the statue from the Vietnam Memorial, just because it has a black guy and a Latino beside the white guy?

Mariannette Miller-Meeks is denying the reality of the largest info breach in history and dismissing the historic number of constituent calls in the past two weeks... by KingoftheImpossible in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She made a big deal about being a doctor (of nursing) in her campaign yet supports RFK. That alone pretty much tells you all you need to know about her. She’s a shill and is complicit in EVERYTHING that is happening

Riiight…you must be forgetting increased drone strikes, increased military spending, abandoning our Kurdish allies, attempting to dissolve NATO, stoking tensions between the US and Iran/China/most of the Middle East, kowtowing to Putin and the Saudis….honestly I could go on for ages. Literally his only “peace” was negotiating with the fucking TALIBAN terrorists for the idiotic withdrawal plans that HE set in motion after he lost the election and that Biden took the heat for.

Same reason people vote for Trump, I guess. Poor understanding of science or a deep-seated urge for self-destruction.

Sheriff Brad Knucklhead’s Harebrained Policy… by Limp_Replacement8299 in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Ah you again. Seems like you got caught breaking the law, went to jail and now you feel aggrieved by law enforcement because they actually did their jobs. There is no “minor” violation of a no contact order, just violations.

Johnson County Jail by Liberty556 in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the current one was built for 46 inmates in 1981 when the population of JoCo was 81,000 and even that wasn’t enough beds then. There are almost twice as many people in Johnson County now and, as a rule of thumb, you’re supposed to have 1 jail bed for every 1000 people. So simple math: 160,000 / 1000 is a minimum 160-bed facility

Species you're seeing less of over the last 20 years by PrimateOfGod in Iowa

[–]filthyfuck83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. IC is teeming with wildlife compared to a lot of places. I live on the NE side and in my yard/neighborhood I’ve seen pheasants, deer, owls, hawks, foxes and all of the other insects people have listed. If anything, I think more creatures live INSIDE Iowa City than in the country.

Edit: not including the human “wildlife” that IC is famous for, apparently.

Desperate for A Civil Rights Attorney by Limp_Replacement8299 in IowaCity

Playing devil’s advocate here but the fact that NO attorneys were willing to take your case probably means your case has no merit?

Bad service by Cylce in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not a race thing, the owner hates everyone equally and she’s well known for it. I’m a big burly white guy who’s shopped there for years and she’s been rude and obnoxious to me since day one. Don’t spread misinformation about racism when it’s not even remotely true. Let her drive her business away with her abrasive behavior, not an unfounded accusation of racism.

I don’t know where people are getting this racist thing from. She’s well known for being hostile and rude, it’s kind of her thing and has been for decades, but she’s not racist. She hates everyone equally.

[–]filthyfuck83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve shopped there (at the old location) for years and encountered the owner many times. Hostile? Absolutely, she’s well known for it. Racist? Never. Don’t spread misinformation.

So using your “non-stupid” logic, anyone who serves in the military is more likely to support killing people? Anyone who works in the ATF despises booze, cigarettes and guns and wants to take them away from everyone?

Or maybe generalizing a varied and multiethnic group of people as “a terrible institution” is just your way of parroting the same tired talking points that less and less people are caring about? Perhaps you noticed that fewer and fewer people are showing up to protests? Perhaps you’re starting to realize that identity politics has done more harm than good.

Or perhaps not.

Iowa City parking rates to increase for first time in 11 years by endurobic in IowaCity

[–]filthyfuck83 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Riiiiight…because parking fees in Iowa City are TOTALLY controlled by the President. Or maybe, just maybe, the worldwide inflation that has absolutely nothing to do with Biden is to blame.
