If you were born between 1980-1995 (generally).

Boomer is post WW2 , 1980-1995 would be genx

I don't know if he was banned or not, but sometimes accounts get nuked. The posts stay up but you can't view their profiles.

Doesn't seem to be the case here, but I'm curious how @AnGrYcRoW thought he was banned.

Saw his post was deleted and all options to start a conversation etc were gone , thought that meant he was pulled

Yup , my bad , I should know that , I am a gen x'r

You can’t tell me that after everything that has gone down at these protests, that every person attending doesn’t know that they are in serious danger just by attending. I’m not at all saying not to protest, or that they should be met with violence. I’m saying there’s no way they don’t know there is a HUGE probability that it will happen.

I would say it's far from huge , hundreds of thousands have protested and only a small percentage have been hurt at all let alone seriously

Been posting mercilessly in the Heavies for months to make it look legit. He'll slowly post more and more here until he becomes a staple.

Wouldn't matter, really. I can't tell some of those guys apart. And they have the nerve to call us NPCs lmao

Sometimes, I seriously start to doubt whether or not some of this guys are literally bots.

 

[tonni]

lol
You wanted people to be punished just for liking a post.

Sounds good.

We, as citizens, have constitutional rights that have been tested in the highest courts over and over and over again.

It is illegal to simply detain someone without reasonable suspicion, and it is illegal to arrest someone without probable cause.

So if the existence of these "secret police" is legal, they may still be acting illegally.

Notice how he completely avoids the core of the discussion, the worrying presence of masked federal officers whisking people into unmarked cars, to nitpick about its legality. That's his typical MO.

I thought conservatives were all about that "stand your ground" shit, and fighting off tyranny.

It's a fun game of pick and choose with them.

They will arm themselves and storm federal buildings because they want haircuts and don't want to wear a mask, but they cheer on a secret police force snatching up protesters.

They can't decide if the government is an evil force controlled by the phile Elite that no one should trust, or if they have the ultimate authority to do whatever they please with disregard for constitutional and human rights.

"I'll die before someone takes my guns!" but then "I don't have a problem with a secret federal police force that illegally detains and arrests protesters. Lmao fuck those libtards."

The way I see it there are three camps on the right when it comes to the issue of law and order vs government tyranny. On one end you have a fringe that is legitimately anti-government and certainly anti-cop. The worst of them are the neo-Nazi skinhead types in areas like the Pacific Northwest but among the South you also see people who are skeptical of cops and government authority. Think Southern Rebel types. They are more likely to be racist than your average American but not as racist as the skinheads and are likely not organized racists in that way. There are also some types that don't necessarily fit into either of those but are legitimately skeptical of government authority and they tend to identify as libertarian.

On the other end you have your suit and tie think tank right wingers and these are committed law and order types. They see nothing in common between them and the aforementioned right wingers, they just want to cut taxes and deregulate the economy. At best they may see those fringe types as useful idiots. But more often than not they want the security arm of the state to come down just as hard on those skinhead or Southern rebel types as they do on left wing mobs.

And then there's a mass in between that are the hypocrites, they support "law and order" when it works against leftist protestors or anti-racist activists but are against it when its inconvenient for them and suddenly become anti-government patriots. Many so called libertarians, I almost want to say most, are like this. They pretend to be anti-government but really lick the boots of cops and the armed forces.

@Prokofievian

Very late response but finally watched through that video


I don’t know if my gym just doesn’t have many who go for a double under or the way I play guard or have a strong preference to play from half guard that prevents me from getting many reps in defending this. Like I can’t remember the last time I had to defend and I usually try extending my legs out, make them heavy while sliding outward. Probably not the best option but I don’t run into it a lot so never cared to look for something better.

Some of that video reminds me of a half guard sweep I really like.

Can’t find the other videos but there’s variations that Caio Terra has to it. I really like stuffing that arm because even if I can’t get to the sweep and they get it out, I have a possible kimura while the arm is slipping out, a shoulder lock if I quickly choose to underhook that same side or I can shoot up real quick to octopus guard if they swim the arm through closer to their body.

I can’t remember your second post but sorry I couldn’t be as much help on that technique.

Lol at you guys butching about a conservative bias in the lounge thread they made for you so you could hide out and not have to talk politics with people with different views from you on a politics forum.

Oh, absolutely. Like @Fawlty Elizabeth said, it's the kind of "legal" that's almost certainly illegal and 100% unconstitutional, but has to be taken to a court. Meanwhile, unknown men in military garb are just snatching people. Like I said, if I see people jump out of a van and try to take someone, I'm not assuming "police", and will act accordingly.

I couldn't have said it better. I'm always confused as to why the right-wingers on this site hate me. We apparently believe in pretty much the same shit, as least as far as government and constitution. But uhhhhh....

I think the problem is that I'm consistent. I won't say something is okay for my side to do but not for theirs. I believe in the constitution and the Bill of Rights (outside of the one that redefined slavery). I love the first amendment. I love the second amendment. And so on and so forth.

But because we have some different social views, I'm a filthy Marxist who wants to ruin America with homosexuality and philia.

Every one of us posting in here are active in other threads.

And by the way, you're welcome to post here to. Do you have rebuttals. You want to debate your views in a casual chat thread? We can do that. There isn't a sign that says "no conservatives allowed". If Conservatives chose not to post here, that's on them.

So I mean; lol at you coming into a thread you're completely welcome to participate in just to attempt to poke fun at the people who actually post here?

There is an entire subforum called the Mayberry lounge. The moderation team literally made you guys a private lounge to hang out in and you use it to bitch about how the mods are unfair to you.

Because? Homer got banned for endorsing violence while already on dubs when there is literally a little box warning before you post that calling for or endorsing violence will lead to a ban.

Ooooooh. You're soooo persecuted.

Always cracks me up when people bitch about the lounge thread

Digging this vibe a lot too.

You're posting in here bitching for no reason.

You think you're dunking on us, but like...

Chill out dude. What do you wanna talk about?

I wonder how long before people start being straight up disappeared.

My guess is it's already happening. I said it before many times. When Trump is finally, unmercifully, preferably not forcibly, removed from office, the people who come after will find that things were far far worse than any of them likely imagined.
