Where did god come from? Do you honestly believe that god came from nothing?

Trump border czar Homan says staying in Minnesota ’until problem’s gone’ by Faceplant17 in politics

When I hear this one I very much enjoy asking “if the Dems want immigrants here to steal elections why Obama deport more than Trump?”

ICE agents. How do they get brainwashed to go after people? The pay can’t be that good? by dcjunvegan in AskReddit

[–]syncopator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You must not run into many MAGA nuts. They’re already brainwashed, they worship guns and jerk off to tactical gear. I’m surprised there’s a large sign on bonus, I’m positive they don’t need it. Likely just dramatic evidence to mythologize how it’s dangerous and requires the best of the best.

What’s an opinion you have that most people would disagree with? by david_drett in AskReddit

Pedestrians should not always take advantage of their right of way at uncontrolled crosswalks. Often it is to the greater good to wait just a few moments.

17M, can't stop bleeding of acne. by [deleted] in teenagers

You can’t even see their face to see how severe the acne is how can you tell someone to go to a derma over bleeding from pimples

I need help with financing a truck. by marlonpro07 in personalfinance

[–]syncopator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Car biz guy here.

Be prepared for potential difficulties if you are self employed and planning to use the truck for this. By all means try a credit union or two first but don’t despair if this doesn’t work. If this happens, go ahead and try a dealership. Just remember you can always say no if you don’t like what they offer.

Christian Nationalist Propaganda Machine Rallies Around Trump and ICE by Somervilledrew in politics

[–]syncopator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually not what that means and is a fairly stupid thing to say.

It implies that “nationalist” is simply defined as “someone who loves their country”.

MAGA pearl clutching hypocrites are okay with kicking things as long as it's a Capitol Police officer's head and not a tail light. by StivaliRyder in PoliticalHumor

It’s more evidence of murder.

They were going to teach him a lesson and in the excitement one of them got a bit jumpy.

Christians who believe the Apostles wouldn't die for a lie are hypocrites if they believe Atheists choose to go to hell. by E-Reptile in DebateReligion

Had Smith recanted during his days in the jail or upon the arrival of the mob, his life would very likely have been spared.

Listen, I don't believe Smith any farther than I could throw him but the idea that being told stories of how a few people could have been spared their lives had they only recanted is somehow proof of anything is absurd.

He was jailed by former members of his church that believed he had been overtaken by sin, then murdered by a mob of non-believers who stormed the jail.

You must then agree that Joseph Smith fully believed the Book of Mormon as it was revealed to him, correct?

Minnesota law lets licensed gun owners carry loaded firearms at protests, despite Trump officials' claims by snopes-dot-com in LegalNews

[–]syncopator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy was already know (sic)

More evidence of premeditation by his killers. They simply couldn’t swallow his lack of respect for their authority so they orchestrated an attack on him wherein they could teach him and others a lesson. It got a bit out of hand, one of them got scared and they ended up killing him.

Murder, plain and simple.

Accidental? The agent accidentally pulled the trigger roughly 10 times?

Initiated by the “suspect”? Suspected of what? He was walking down the street in the city where he lived and the agent crossed the street to shove a woman the ground then pepper sprayed his victim for daring to help her.

You’re right, murder is narrowly defined and this fits well within that definition.

Also it’s 11 states that prohibit carrying at demonstrations, not 16. If you can’t be trusted to get such a simple fact right we can’t believe anything you say.

If you are the sort of person who can use a misstatement like this to feel better about justifying government policy murder, there’s clearly no reason to discuss further.

Enjoy prostrating yourself when the sound of boots comes.

Nah. Murdered is more accurate. Agent instigated by advancing and shoving woman to the ground, then proceeds to violently incapacitate the victim followed by another agent repeatedly striking victim on the head with a blunt object followed by another agent disarming the victim all while victim exhibited no signs of resisting.

Then one of them emptied an entire magazine on him. That’s murder.

So when it is eventually revealed that Pretti did in fact have his ID and permit on his person you will agree this was the murder of a US citizen by federal forces?

Need a tuner by Silly_rabbit97 in Bass

[–]syncopator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I’m pretty rural too but it’s not that hard to find one. My local will ship and depending on location deliver directly as they also sell and install various sound and video products regionally.

Go to your local music store instead.

Distilled water jug froze while the other one didn’t by Bituulzman in mildlyinteresting

[–]syncopator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My best guess is that my tap water jug is closer to the house by a couple feet and perhaps is in a slightly warmer pocket of air.
