Any proof of that or is that just their wistful thinking so they can say see its both sides? He had some leftist posts, but given his interests, his band, and other things, its more likely he was trolling.

A Bad Poster posted:Didn't someone say that he wasn't actually on suicide watch anymore? Pretty sure I saw someone trustworthy saying that, I don't know what to believe anymore He was not on suicide watch anymore, it was officially withdrawn by the psychologists. So that angle is moot. There's no evidence at this time that they were coerced to do so.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:The technical principle is straightforward enough, but why? Russia couldn't exactly loiter them off our coast so there's no first strike advantage over ICBMs and SLBMs, and as far as I know Russian subs still provide them plenty of second strike capacity. Is it that these fly at lower trajectories so they can defeat anti ballistic countermeasures? There is no why it's all about Putin trying to gather morale material it it doesn't replace icbm's it doesn't replace sub-based missiles it's just neat toy for him to show off

bulletsponge13 posted:Historically, gun control has never been about safety. It's about keeping guns away from "undesirables" mostly the poor and minorities. While that may be true, it is not an argument against stricter gun control. Also: Libertarians are just GOP with Pot. They suck.

Steezo posted:The same police you can't trust with behavioral profiling because it always turns into racial profiling are the ones who would be executing this. Or we could just fix the police too. Nobody here is pretending that isnt an issue. The argument that gun control would be enforced by police isnt really a good argument against it.

Arc Light posted:Whereas people who joke about running over protestors might not actually go out and kill people on the roadway, but it's def a thing that happens, and they're totally cool with it irl. Which means it's not actually a joke. Yup. And they vote for people who openly try, and often succeed, to legalize this. Its like trolling: You can troll, but honestly most people who troll probably genuinely believe what they are saying deep down.

We have two P-3’s that do this, and a G-IV that flies around the storm and is boring. The Air Force has the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron that has 10 C-130’s that do similar missions to the P-3, but don’t do anywhere near the kind of research we do. This is awesome, you are awesome, and stay safe Wonder Free fam.
