wins32767 posted:Having built and shipped applications for Oracle, I'll just say that you shouldn't trust them to have your interests at heart or be a good partner. They are a cash extracting machine and they'll set things up in a way to put you over a barrel if you aren't extremely detail oriented. The lawsuit was of a piece of the other stuff they had us do to maximize legal leverage to optimize for cash extraction. Oracle took Sun, a company who basically worked hand in hand with Open Source, and gutted it to turn it into a revenue generator. gently caress them. Google sucks, but I'll take Google over Oracle anyday. I hope this ruling turns around and fucks Casio as well.

Vincent Van Goatse posted:Reptiles don't deserve to be compared to this sack of poo poo. Hell, I'm not sure poo poo deserves to be compared to Stephen Miller because poo poo can be repurposed as fertilizer. In other Miller news, apparently he's trying to setup a Alt-Right answer to the ACLU, called America First Legal. I don't think Stephen Miller realizes the only reason he got away with what he did was Barr/Trump's love of ignoring and outright going around the law and human rights.

wins32767 posted:The fact that many tasers use a grip and trigger similar to handguns is a real problem when you have the same people armed with both. Training is only so effective, and it's an indication of the lack of the responsiveness of police departments that they keep buying devices that are so easy to confuse for a gun. I think its safer to say they don't need access to firearms if they cannot deal with them. "Training is only so effective" is such a poor excuse given how often this happens accidentally or on purpose.

Naramyth posted:A gun without a bullet in the chamber is just an awkward club. If you are openly carrying a firearm for defense it better be ready to go on the draw. And let's be honest: We need to remove guns from normal police. They've proven they are incapable of having the discipline or self-control in handling a firearm.

BIG HEADLINE posted:This won't happen without open and concealed carry going away, and that won't stop criminals and mass shooters from breaking the law and using guns anyway, and as the response to protests nationwide have proven, when you remove lethal force from the equation and provide LEO with an abundance of less-lethal options, they use the less-lethal options to lethal extents and extremes, like braining someone with a tear gas canister at close range or purposely shooting pepperballs and rubber bullets at no-go areas. Given that police have shown they are absolutely inept and unwilling to deal with concealed carry and open carry people anyways (usually because they are white) what difference does it make if they have a gun or not? https://twitter.com/irishrygirl/status/1381754869900529665?s=20 These guys had guns and did nothing except for one single case.

Meshka posted:A portion of people are not inherently good no matter how well a society runs itself and will always take advantage of the weaker without a mechanism to discourage that type of behavior. Saying abolish all police makes you sound like a child and will never be accepted by majority of people. Ahhhh, the Purge realist has logged on. This is the sort of person that also argues that without the threat of divine punishment, everyone would become debauched murderers and rapists. Abolish All Police and replace them with Social Programs and Special Response teams.

PeterCat posted:I'm going to repost a post I made in CA . but....ordinary people DON'T deal with biker games, for a couple reasons: Because neither do the cops, because often the bikers include cops/ex-cops and/or associations via White Supremacist groups that are associated with both, and for another reason being that Biker Gangs are not actually roaming the streets like that. But get associated with bikers, knowing what Biker Gangs tend to include, you might get killed. Biker Gangs have white privilege that protects them normally.

Meshka posted:Lets assume your hypothetical world where law enforcement does not exist. Do you believe that everyone will act in the beat interests of society and others? Okay, first off: Cops OVERWHELMINGLY apply the law unevenly to allow this to already happen. White privilege allows white people to do some outright absurd stuff with little to no consequences, and cops are most often the one utilizing that white privilege to inhibit the rights of minorities and people of color. Cops DO NOT enforce the "best interest of society" unless you are openly admitting that the best interest of society is murdering Americans in their cars, on their streets, brutalizing them, oppressing them, and jailing them for minor infractions. If you think guns are going to save you, you should probably already being carrying, because those not acting in the best interests are already here. They wear uniforms. The best interest of society was apparently kneeling on a Black Americans neck till he died and spraying a United States Military officer in the face with mace and threatening him.

Meshka posted:I am not saying everything is great, large and DoJ mandated reforms are absolutely needed. But you cant say things like we do not need law enforcement, it is needed in every society in all time periods. Model something new using some European practices, but it will take a long time. You cannot reform a system built from the ground up to expressly enforce racist ideals of justice.

wins32767 posted:This may be a sign that perhaps kneejerk responses aren't the best idea. This isn't doing anything for the victim, if they were doing anything for the victim we wouldn't have another dead black American. Manslaughter charges haven't stopped cops from using excessive force to the point of death, and depending on what the result of the ongoing trial against Derek Chauvin results in, you can read the room on what these charges will result in.... Right now, there is a literal army being fielded against protestors who RIGHTFULLY are protesting multiple police killings against Black Americans, and their "punishment" for protesting these travesties of justice is.....more violence against them.
