War of northern aggression⦠havenâ(TM)t heard that phrase since I moved out of SC about 15 years agoâ¦

If you organized a community who reported the real time position of the officer, that would be legal in most cases. Just like the ICE protesters did.

Not disagreeing with the point you were trying to make, just the specifics you used to try to make it.

Traffic violation cameras are also required by law to be disclosed in many areas. Where I live there are multiple signs letting you know they exist on roads they are used.

Considering my LG TV just updated last week with a "no class action lawsuit" T&C clause, I'm pretty sure what they're saying is "yeah, we're screwing you, but we're hoping you accept these new T&C before you join a class."

I'll give you credit. You're great at picking sound bytes and quotes absent context to fake your point. Seems like you may be gunning for a FOX, Newsmax, or OAN "fact checker" in the future.

The Harvard lawsuit is still being adjudicated in the courts and proves nothing. It is an currently just an allegation at this point, which comes back to my previously, "guilty until proven innocent" comment. Thanks for helping to reinforce that point.

The FCC's broadcast license has historically been a technicality focused on making sure the equipment does not cause interference. But sure, in your world that means, "we don't like you, so we can take it away because.... reasons!" Show a single instance, prior to Trump, of the FCC doing what they are attempting now.

Just because you don't like the concept of DEI does not make it unlawful nor discriminatory. In fact, the proper venue for that is first a court, and if a court did happen to agree, a potential license review might be justified. This is "guilt until proven innocent", and it's solely done because the Orangeutan doesn't like their content, which is a blatant first amendment violation.

Your own link has citations that talk shows are considered news. Something that has held for decades until Trump and his ilk started panicking about TX turning blue.

Except that Fox Broadcasting does air Fox News segments. And no where did anyone say Kimmel wouldn't provide equal time to a Republican. Just as Colbert explicitly said they would, and they still got told to shelve the interview and put it on YouTube. Nice strawmen though.

If you were to constantly poke and prod an otherwise tame animal until it lashed out and bit you, is that your fault or the animal's?

That's the "support" and "blamed the victim" you are referring to. To pretend that Israel is completely innocent in what has happened to the west bank and Palestine over years (if not decades) is putting your own head in the sand. Did they deserve the Oct 7th attack? A reasonable person would likely say no. Did they provoke it via years of actions toward an occupied country that has often been described as "the world's largest open air jail"? I'd say genuine reasonable people can have a debate on that one.

The reality is the only reason the US isn't labeled a terrorist country is we won the war with England. The people of this country were poked and prodded until they decided their only solution was to rebel and respond. Had the US lost, it would have been labeled in the same way that every other subjugated country that lost an uprising has always been.

When was that? Around the time that the FCC decided to perform a never-before-done force renewal of ABC's broadcast licenses.

I guess /. is giving MAGA mod points because there's no reasonable justification for the parent to have a Troll label.

Livestreaming didn't do much to convince the MAGA's about Jan 6.

Dude, seriously, show us on the doll where rsilvergun hurt you... I don't agree or disagree with rsilvergun's posts, but to see the same AC BS every single time has gotten old.

As others pointed out, I was mistaken in that he was convicted of paying hush money to young boys who he sexually assaulted. I confused part of one Republican's scandal with another Republican's scandal (Larry Craig). My bad.

Feudalism worked because part of the deal was the means to survive. Bunkers aren't a means to survive, they're a tomb with a slow burning candle that when it runs out, so does the ability to live.

That was another point the guy made. You need farm land, skilled laborers, knowledge of how to plant and rotate crops, and when. These rich idiots with bunkers have literally none of that.

It's a bit like teaching self defense. If you give someone a bit of thought that they are better prepared in a bad situation, they are more likely to make that bad situation worse. A self defense trainee is more likely to attempt to fight a losing fight than run or do whatever other thing is more likely to help them get past the situation. A rich idiot with a bunker is more likely to ignore society and avoid engaging because they believe they can ride out the storm in said bunker. When the actual way would have been to help people, butild loyalty, and ensure a mutual means of survival for a close knit group.
