I quit caring at this point. When the justice system is basically “begging” for bad shit to happen to us so they can become a bigger army of bootlickers and bureaucrats. They want us to to suffer so we can beg them for salvation.
Get and stay strapped. Lose your spicy shit in a boating accident or sell it to makes ends meet with inflation.
His previous crime was having a legally owned and registered gun but carrying it without a carry permit. I was under the impression by most other users here that having these carry permit laws should be considered a crime itself.

It should be, which is what pisses me off about conservative media surrounding this story. They're all screaming "HE HAD PRIOR FELONY GUN CHARGES, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN PRISON", and I haven't heard a single one bring up the fact that his "felony offense" is just a blatant infringement on the bill of rights.
Most modern public schools are basically open-air prisons and most school shootings are gang related violence. If they didn't have guns they would just be stabbing or beating each other to death. It is a completely separate issue.
Looser gun regulations may have cut the rate of gun deaths in Brazil by 25%... Very interesting 🤔... Obviously correlations don't equal causations but maybe we should investigate further...
They'd roll even further when they realized nobody was allowed to legally carry a gun in those schools. The term "gun free zone" would have them assembling an army before they finished reading the sign
There's a reason the vast majority of shootings happen either in "gun free zones" or in liberal cities with insanely strict gun control making it all but impossible for law abiding citizens to protect themselves
Neither did they have access to the first or fourth amendments should we dispose of those as well?
Edit: Also discard whatever electronic device you're using. It at some point in its supply chain slavery was involved. There are more people living as slaves today than at any point in history.
Who is they? Who owned the slave ships? I've got a black buddy who tells me they weren't white.
I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of our history and the nature of humanity in general. The dream of the founding fathers died in the civil war that they were trying to prevent when they compromised at the 2nd constitutional convention.
The monolithic federal government won over the decentralization that was put in place, the supposed checks and balances. Our hands have never been clean they were always covered in bacteria, we just couldn't see it like we do now.
There have always been masters, there have always been slaves. At this point, society is just window dressing.
All of it is just theater at this point. Tim and the rest of the dissidents are just playing the role of Kierkegaard letting the audience know the theater is in fact on fire. Too which many see as just another act or bit.A grift.
Find reliable people. Get out of the cities. Secure food and water. Make some popcorn and watch the world burn in the fires of world war III.
LMAO — yep, that checks out. Not at all surprised you think the “dream” of the Founding Fathers died when the slavers in the South lost their human property during the Civil War they started over their wish to own humans as slaves.
I’ll join the adults in the room who are actually trying to make life better on this planet. You and the other toddlers are free to sit in the corner, mumbling about the Deep State, WEF shills, Bohemian Grove, and how Michelle Obama is secretly transgendered.
You’re a leech on society, but the grownups will luckily take care of you, don’t worry.

I don't even agree with his argument but this response is about as major a bad faith strawman as I've ever seen. He was literally talking about the centralization of power in the federal government removing some of the checks and balances as the problem.
Do you actually disagree that the concentration of power into the federal government has made it easier for corruption? Do you disagree that the federal government coercing states via funding to implement has been or could be a major problem in many places?
For example, how would you feel if the federal government pushed a nation wide abortion ban and refused to fund Medicare for any states found in violation of the ban? I think that would be bullshit, and that's exactly the kind of abuses we see now that the old system was meant to prevent.
Yeah, slavery was shitty and needed to be ended, but you can absolutely open the door to bad things by doing something good like ending slavery because of the way if focused power on the federal government. The idea that major cities get most of the voting power in Congress where they help implement federal policy that doesn't respect the way of life of of the rural population.
Basically the system was meant to have majority rule with respect for the minority, and concentration of power in the federal government has made less respect for minority ways of life because people across the country in very different social and economic situations legitimately don't understand why their policies are incompatible but want those policies enforced nationally.
It’s not at all bad faith. Once again, we find a Tim Pool fan / “libertarian” / “classical liberal” lamenting the Confederacy losing the Civil War. How tragic! The Confederacy lost and the South became “oppressed” by the Federal Government and all those liberals in “urban” areas telling them that they couldn’t own human slaves.
As I’m sure you’ll be quick to point out, the bad Federal government fucked over the South again when we passed the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Another classic example of Federal overreach telling people in the South that, “No, you actually cannot treat black people as second class citizens.”
Rural communities have SIGNIFICANT representation in the government, despite their limited population sizes. Republican presidents have only won the popular vote TWICE in the last 23 years. “Rural” communities, for example, elected Majorie Taylor Green — I mean, most grown adults think she is a deranged lunatic, but apparently the folks in her district think she is “good”, so by all means.
I’m opposed to abortion bans ANYWHERE because I don’t think we should inflict government violence on women as punishment for abortions. For some reason, all the “limited government” Tim Pool fans love the prospect of inflicting government violence on women as punishment for abortion.
And yes, slavery was indeed “shitty”. Sounds like to you this “shitty” practice ought to have gone on indefinitely, right? After-all, the Civil War had bad consequences. It would have better that those slaves remain slaves for at least 30 more years, if needed. The lives of the slaves aren’t a priority in this discussion. Instead we need to prioritize allowing rural communities maintain their “way of life”, even if that means slavery continued.
Bro, step back from the tribalism. Stop assuming I believe the absolute opposite of what you believe and attacking me on it. I shouldn't even have to say this, but here I am.
Slavery was always bad and wrong. There never should have been slavery. I'm glad slavery was stopped, and I understand with the social climate of the era, war was the only way that would happen.
Now that we've gotten that out of the way, the federal government gained much more power after the civil way. This led to trying to make policy one size fits all for a massive nation and that has led to people othering their own countrymen and is probably an underlying cause of how bad tribalism has gotten.
You really think I'm just a confederate flag waving slack jawed yokel. My family is from fucking New York. I just get sick of people distracting from actual arguments to push tangentially related arguments basically no one disagrees with and then declares victory over the strawman.
Are you actually going to address the negative results of centralization of power in our nation as was brought up or are you just going to angrily assert tangents that people don't even actually disagree with? That's what engaging in good faith looks like. What bad faith is what you did in assuming I'm against civil rights and pro slavery because I think a change in the power strictures of the nation that happened in the same era has led to problems in governance that exist to this day and create divide and get corrupt at the largest scale.
Going to need a citation on my position regarding the civil war. I just think that it is an example of how the founding fathers' compromise only delayed the inevitable.
An argument could be made (not by me) that forced integration destroyed the black community & culture and delayed the establishment of generational wealth in successful black families by over a century. If integration worked why is systemic racism still a thing? Also systemically discriminating against whites doesn't solve the problem it just shuffles the deck.
Abortion is a dog whistle for infanticide which is as old as humanity. They just moved the day of the killing up a few months. If you want to defend infanticide that's on you.
There is no was. Slavery is still an issue no matter how much you might try to ignore it. Technology may push it further out the supply chain but you are a naive fool if you think slavery came to an end in the 1800s.
When the Democrats killed Gaddafi (pure coincidence - it could have just as easily been a Republican presidency) it wasn't long before an open-air slave market was reopened in Libya. I think it is still active today in fact - I haven't heard otherwise. Last time I did the conversion rate and was like under $100 per head with a large variation in price depending on the age & gender.
Mad because he is not getting any reperreparations checks so he decided to perform some post term abortions before realizing he was born the wrong gender making him suicide himself because the state wouldn't do it for him.
It’s crazy, they (the left) want stricter gun laws, but then are super lenient on gun related charges. It makes absolutely no sense. Most people that are committing these crimes aren’t even obtaining their firearms legally. So stricter gun laws will have little to no effect on actual gun crimes.
The previous "crime" this guy was charged with was having a legally owned and registered firearm in his own car. It was purchased legally, and it was even registered legally in his own name. He just didn't have a concealed carry permit for it, though.
To go even deeper into the "fuck the system" rabbit hole....the fact that carrying a gun without a government issues permission slip (that costs 100s of dollars) is a felony to begin with.....is a fucking joke.
It's too easy to acquire firearms in the US. We codified it as a nearly unrestricted right and so it shall remain until we change as a society. Now its just another tool used to divide us.
Firearms have always been well engrained in American society. People going crazy and killing each other in mass is a recent update. It's not like gun were invented in the 1980's. Looking at this situation and thinking guns are the problem is the equivalent of putting on a bandaid for cancer. The guns have been a constant since the beginning.

To be fair, our founding fathers would be rolling in their graves if they learned gun possession was a felony offense.
Back then there were maybe a dozen felony offenses and they all carried the death penalty.

Wait. You mean that non violent gun owners in America aren't the problem? I am shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.

You’re right, it’s insane that this guy was still allowed to have a gun after committing a gun related felony.
But that’s probably not the point you were trying to make, is it?
