Having a hard time imagining something that would be worse for the US than getting involved in Mexico. Forever police action with no clear goal beyond killing bad guys, brutalizing and corrupting the army, feeding the flames of antihispanic racism, further destabilizing a country of 100 Million people on the US border, the US would be in a really bad place in 10 years

Nevermind that the cartels also have equal or superior training and equipment compared to average line troops.

GitS if anything under predicted the level of tech dystopia were heading too. If it were accurate peoples cyberbrains would be forced into eternal undying wage slavery and if you commit suicide they just restore a backup and punish the backup for it.

But it had a good pitch for a world of cyber terror and we’ve almost got to the literal brainwashing in reality.

BANDAIDS DON'T FIX BULLET HOLES

Those Mexico pligs (and all pligs as a whole) are excommunicated from the mormon church automatically as soon as they start practicing polygamy. It’s like ISIL getting kicked out of AQ for being too hardline.

The policy was put in place around the turn of the century so the Army would stop hunting church leadership and Congress would let Utah become a state. The Utah Territory at the time was occupied by the US Army and controlled by a military governor. Congress denied Utah statehood for a decade or so after they met the requirements because federal anti-polygamy laws only applied to territories, and Congress assumed Utah would just legalize it once getting statehood.

I'm a big fan about how her statement mentions supporting military survivors, but the word "survivor(s)" appears only five times in the statement: Once to say she'll support them, once to say she supported a bill to allow a survivor to break a lease within a year of a military spouse's death (which would have been nice when my wife died), and then three times in reference to sexual assault.

A gently caress death murder cult sounds a little more severe than "more weird".

Seriously, ervil lebaron was a loving psychopath linked to at least 25 murders, armed stand offs with Mexican locals, drug smuggling, and who knows what else.

If these are the same lebarons, I have no doubt that it was a cartel knocking out the competition, or the locals finally come to gently caress them up for digging 300 illegal wells in a drought stricken part of the country.

sounds extremely in keeping with the oldest Mormon traditions tbqf
