Your political worldview means nothing to me. I get that you need to utilise these tabloid caricatures, because you have allowed yourself to become so deeply immersed in that mindset, but it's a foreign language to me.

Shoehorn away all you like, but just understand that you may as well be quoting quantum physics in Swahili down the line at this monitor.

It's not my reality.

im honestly surprised people think the rational thing is going to happen here...

 

[Snake_Baker]

I'm a libertarian, so at the end of the day you either choose the citizen or the government.

SDS would see the end to most citizen's freedoms and the strengthening of easily the biggest murderer of the past 100 plus years......government.

His type all want their wishes to be facilitated by big brother, whilst at the same time being blissfully unaware of the ugly monster that they feed.

They are gullible people with limited depth of thought.

He’ll walk, they’ll claim he was there protecting property against an unruly mob. Nothing to do with protestors they were looters...

He’ll have a lot of sympathisers, have a look at the way the cops thanked them before and after..

I haven’t watched any of the videos of the incident. I just can’t get my head around someone could leave their house, go somewhere armed and kill two people and claim self defence.

Isn’t there circumstances where people have been charged for shooting someone who’s broken into their house?

Going by the clip, you think it’s down to racism?

Agree. It makes you wonder if these are the actual facts & circumstances, hey?

 

[Val Keating]

That clip by childish gambino is all about racism. Look it ip

 

[Snake_Baker]

That clip by childish gambino is all about racism. Look it ip

It looks like the happy meal of racism statements.

 

[Val Keating]

I’ve said it many times. I’m glad I live in Australia. The world has some crazy spots and America is right up there at the moment

It’s actually a brilliant video. There’s so much going on in it. It’s probably the best thing Glovers done

 

[DesertRoo]

Going by the clip, you think it’s down to racism?

Absolutely, to do with institutionalised racism and inequality.

im not discussing right or wrong here..
I’m saying the kid who thought it was his civil duty to protect land owners property from an unruly mob. He took an military rifle in an attempt to do this.
Its a long tradition of American society, dating back to the slave patrols. It’s the non spoken reason why they have right to bare arms.

It’s messed up on so many levels, the country is so polarised.

The country has been deliberately polarised for many decades and individual gun ownership rights has **** all to do with it.

If they were truly an issue, they wouldn't have them. It's just another distraction.

I think I would prefer it there these days.

Sure, I acknowledge it's more violent, but they aren't so incredibly apathetic and accepting of government interference in their lives. They would go go down with a bang, whereas we are going down without a whimper.

You’re campaigning for the libs. You quote news ltd, bolt, Latham, Trump. Rah rah greta.


You’ve realised that youre in intellectual lockstep with a bunch of shriekers you used to dismiss pretty easily. Im sure thats why you turn debates around to the mental health of those pointing out youre full of shit.

I used to see you as a free thinker. But social media has had a pretty massive impact on your world view.

 

[DesertRoo]

Why do you think their society has been pushed that way, the middle class having to protect themselves from the lower class?

 

[LuvtheKangas]

He drove from Illinois to Wisconsin with an AR-15 to engage protesters.

This is fact.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Why do you think their society has been pushed that way in the media, the middle class having to protect themselves from the lower class?

It's always about the rich & powerful, in a corporate state or a government controlled state.

It's just that the corporate state tends to leave the people with a few more things of their own, and spend money more productively.

If I have to choose between overt corporatism and overt bureaucracy, I am going with the corporatism.

 

[Snake_Baker]

He drove from Illinois to Wisconsin with an AR-15 to engage protesters.

This is fact.

He might have driven everywhere in his entire life with an AR-15. He has that right.

Do you have factual evidence that your claim was his sole purpose?

We’re going down?

 

[Snake_Baker]

We’re going down?

We're virtually gone mate.

We are big brothers crash test dummy.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

He might have driven everywhere in his entire life with an AR-15. He has that right.

Of course not, but as a betting man, I would willingly take a bet that he has not "driven everywhere in his entire life with an AR-15".

The courts will establish the facts eventually. At this point, I can't see how his actions are justified.

Probably not when he was a minor, no.

I suspect that would get the closest to the pin.

At this point, I can't see how his actions are justified.

Not surprising. It's a foreign cultural trait.

 

[DesertRoo]

So you’ve claimed the kid is a right wing terrorist, deliberately armed to engage protestors, like Tarrant did in NZ, do you still hold those views?

 

[Val Keating]

He might have driven everywhere in his entire life with an AR-15. He has that right.

His mum drove him there
