It's supposed to be chilling, in the sense that Ryan is a high level analyst, and now he's being exposed to the results of his analysis (he's actually seeing people die because of a call that he made). This is somewhat weakened when you realize that he was involved in a shootout with IRA terrorists at the beginning of the movie (where he kills one, with a gun he picks up from a dead cop) and also he's an ex-marine (though he saw no combat).

Scene would go better with "America, gently caress YEAH" over the top, much like this:

I hate to be the guy to bring up the whole race riots thing but the Tea Party posted about how the guy in Ferguson is clearly innocent and was clearly defending himself so working from my normal principle of 'the Tea Party are completely wrong' I can only assume that he did in fact murder a poor innocent black kid, or should I adopt the 'right twice a day' rule?

The "Tea Party" position is that Mike Brown deserved to die and nothing is wrong with the way the system works so just go home and don't be mad about it. Even if I grant them Mike Brown, the system is still hosed up and needs to be changed.

So the argument that the "Tea Party" is making is an argument for the status quo, and since the status quo is hosed the Tea Party is still wrong about the broader question.

tl;dr: This is the Internet, so I'll let a lunatic yelling on the street make my argument for me.

Increase police funding for training and hiring. Raise hiring standards (bust the PD's that don't want 'intelligent recruit' because they might think), increase the number of officers so no officer is patrolling alone, add funding for lapel cameras, add funding for more training and additional cops so that there isn't holes in the duty roster while other police officers are training...

Oh, wait, that means raising taxes and might actually work!

DISMANTLE THE POLICE FORCE! ANARCHY IS THE NATURAL STATE!

I really need to stop looking at the Tea Party's facebook but a while ago they were unironically calling for the abolishment of the IRS. I don't even know what to say at that point.

Pretty much. They seem to be having a very hard time understanding that I can be at the same time in favor of long prison terms for first degree murder, AND opposed to prison shower rape.

when they aren't just flat out accusing you of whatever they want

AreWeDrunkYet posted:

Stop being so loving disingenuous. I clearly said "non-violent drug offenders", not "simple possession cases".

Dance around it all you want, but you were explicitly arguing for imprisoning non-violent drug offenders earlier in the thread.

in reference to this

ActusRhesus posted:

now where exactly did I say I supported no knock raids, and where exactly did I say I supported jail time for simple posession? Because I'm pretty sure I said the opposite of that.




i have to stop myself every time a cruise ship thread comes up because i keep getting annoyed at people making up poo poo about them, for example that they discharge untreated sewage in port and use a cheap desalinator therefore you're drinking sewage
but knowing how they actually work (not like i've actually worked on a cruise ship sewage plant and freshwater generator) makes me a shill, apparently

Actually, it was in reference to this:


I don't see how to read that quote as anything but arguing for prosecuting people for drug crimes. And she did it over and over, responding to arguments about drug prosecutions with comments about possession cases.

i'll say it explicitly then

i absolutely support prosecuting even low level drug dealers

not so much for possession

Dead Reckoning posted:

The problem is that you were saying "Why do you want to send people to jail for non-violent drug offenses?" when you meant that you think every single non-violent drug offense is immoral to prosecute irrespective of drug, quantity, or intent to distribute. But the way you phrased it sounded like you're asking why she wants to send every single non-violent drug offender to jail... Which isn't the case, as she's reasonably explained a dozen times now.

You were asking about drug offenses as if they were a homogeneous category of crimes, but Actus Rhesus (and most other normal people) see possessing a joint as different from large scale heroin manufacture.

You are bad at communicating.

yeah but if this he took this into account his point would be pretty much null and void


i also support legalisation because all having them be illegal do is pushing money into the hands of the gangs

see why new zealand has major gang presences, because basically everyone smokes pot which they can't buy legally

Hahahahah holy gently caress

quote:

As explosives were detonated to attempt to blow a hole on the top of the airframe, the explosion ripped through the cabin area, immediately killing 20 passengers.[4] Using the same hole, the operators gained entry to the plane but in the confusion opened fire indiscriminately and killed and injured more passengers. In the ensuing chaos, passengers that managed to flee the plane were then gunned down by snipers in positions around the airport who mistook them for terrorists attempting to escape. The total number of passengers killed was 57, out of 88 total.
