Ahem. The Falklands War would like to speak with you. That was a direct Naval Engagement, involving two British Aircraft Carriers (the Invincible and the Hermes) whose presence literally dominated and warped the battlefield. If the Hermes and the Invincible had not been present, the British would have lost the…

That ignores the fact that the Department of Justice performed an exhaustive review of the circumstances surrounding Michael Brown’s death. All forensic evidence, and witnesses were reviewed, multiple times. The determination was that there was not sufficient evidence for any jury to convict Darren Wilson beyond a…

Dylann Roof complied with police instructions, didn’t assault a police officer, and thus is alive. The Police who approached his car had guns drawn. If he had not complied with instructions, he would likely have died that day.

He wasn’t ‘acting aggressive.’ He was actively assaulting a police officer, had attempted to steal his firearm, and was charging him, with the apparent intent to do bodily harm.

If you consider being followed a physical threat, you might be a bit paranoid. Especially because it is super hard to tell the difference between ‘following’ and ‘going to same way as you.’

Sorry, but ‘rightfully?’ The school should have intervened before this, but answering words with violence isn’t ‘rightful.’ The evidence is that a black young man assaulted a white young man, the white young man made a racial slur, and the black young man then assaulted him again.

Given that they were Syrian Democratic Forces, yes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syrian_Democratic_Forces

If this is a joke, um... funny?

Uhmmm... generally you don’t get a Plea Bargain before you enter a plea. Like... a plea of not guilty is at arraignment, which is the first step in the whole process. It can be a year, and sometimes even more before you actually face trial.

If any of these funds actually flow to the VA, your complaint will be valid. According to any of his proclamations, they will not. Instead, they will go to increasing the Military’s size, and lots of Nukes.

Nah. Hayao Miyazaki’s movies have way less naked cartwheels and nanomachines.

Browns have a win. Think the 2008 Lions still lose.

Wait, you know there is a football team in Detroit right? I mean the Browns are bad. But no one, but no one, will ever be worse than the 2008 Detroit Lions.

Pachinko has the same target audience as gambling, because Pachinko is gambling. Young Men (because men make more than women, especially in Japan, and young people have more disposable income because they don’t have kids). This is the same audience for video games, for the most part.

The issue with this perspective is that the F-35, F-15, and F-18 are all fundamentally worse at the A-10's job then the A-10. The truth is, they were never designed to do CAS. CAS has very different specifications than most missions, and the vast majority of aircraft designed by the USAF do it poorly. They don’t like…

Visa and entry are one and the same. A visa is the right to enter the country. That is all it is. To claim that one can bar entry without affecting the granting of Visas is a pretty silly proposition. Also, the Department of State disagrees with you, as under Trump’s executive order, they have begun cancelling Visas.

I am. The act states what it states. Also, the quotas have explicit exceptions they are not allowed to affect, which Trump’s order does not include. Even if he is using his quota setting authority, rather than the broad emergency authority (which he isn’t because the quota setting authority lacks the power to strip…

Fine, here is a citation: 8 USC 1152(a)(1)(A:)

Actually, if you are talking about IANA, no, no it doesn’t. It actually contains an express provision barring individuals from being ‘discriminated against’ based upon ‘national origin.’ So to bar people based on national origin... yeah. Thats forbidden by the law.

Oh no, I absolutely do, as I’ve said here. The police should respond to this kind of 911 call, but a single car should have probably shown up, and when it became clear that no crime had been committed, and no one was in distress, they should have left. This was a disgrace.
