Heat is heat, “low density large volume” or whatever, they’ve successfully used it in cold climate locations to heat residential homes already.

C-O-C-A-I-N-E!

I think it’s more of a fear of getting hit on a road, kinda thing. Not necessarily that they’re lazy.

Of course they can. They might get in trouble or even fired. But they can still say whatever they want. They are also protesting on both sides of it, too, as is the right. The great American discourse.

Well, book burning is kinda dumb because most of them, if not all, are already digitized. It’s a statement at this point in time. While really stupid and backwards, expression is still a right and freedom that Americans enjoy.

This is unlike other countries where you can be thrown in jail for something even lesser and never have a recourse or trial.

And that makes the image being censored ‘okay’?

Maybe The Other Guys (2010)

Is Kim running low on food again? I feel I read something about a missile being fired every other week.

Still getting used to Lemmy! I’m not getting notifications about when I’m being responded to. I dunno.

The “good guy with a gun” thing is absolutely hard to swallow, I can agree with that. But you must concede that if it wasn’t true, why would the President and most politicians making gun laws have a security detail with guys that are armed with guns? Why would the police carry guns? Why do banks have security guards that carry guns?

It’s also a weird argument to say that I have a 1/100 chance of being rescued by a guy with gun Vs being killed.

So the answer to defending yourself or others from the guy with the knife is what? Wait for someone else, like Uvalde? Be a meat shield? Even if it’s 1 out of 100, I would rather not wait to be hurt.

Devil’s advocate here, maybe he would’ve been stopped by a teacher with a gun before he got to even 1.

EDIT - or someone. If you were personally there with the ability to stop a madman with a knife and defend a child, are you saying you wouldn’t use that power to stop him? I’m not talking anybody else here, I’m talking you, the reader.

EDIT2 - so what’s the answer to this situation? I want to hear the ideas of those downvoting. Discourse is the opportunity, not a wall.
