NOTE: I have no intention of shooting anyone or anything. I don't own any weapons of any kind and loathe them. This is simply a hypothetical question expounding upon the seemingly common trope that 2nd amendment advocates posit about being able to defend themselves from any and all threats with impunity.
So since LEOs are a provable and documented threat to the safety of everyone and everything, should it then be reasonable that the general public can shoot them on sight? Just asking for some clarification.
I have a WeChat account that I use to keep in touch with many of my Chinese friends. I'm not a Chinese citizen, I'm a very white American. I did not need to use some other person to open my WeChat account. I even have a Weibo account, which linked to my WeChat account. Now, I can't do monetary transactions in WeChat because that does require having a Chinese ID card and bank account, which I, of course, don't have. But, the app and account itself are not restricted otherwise. There is something with this Australian story that doesn't make much sense.
like everything else from Musk. Musk is nothing but a master propagandist/conman who hires some talented people to come out with some nice, interesting tech. But, the conman in him always turns it to sh because Musk just can't be bothered to not be an ahole.
I look for all of my flights on Google Flights. Southwest doesn't show up on there, so I never fly Southwest. I'm not going to waste my time hunting down their fares when I can view everyone else's fares in one spot. Besides, I don't fly cattle class.
Re: Facebook is just a really large room of people ultimately
Social media amplifies the people, millions upon millions of times in some cases. This is the problem. Yes, there have always been assholes, but they didn't have audiences of millions of people all over the world at their disposal.
Again, you're simply pointing out one positive benefit that the cancer has provided. The cancer is still going to kill the patient, eventually, but at least he won't be obese, right?
O'Keefe and Project Veritas most likely ARE involved in the theft of the diaries. This is what they do. There is no likely reason to think otherwise because they have proven themselves to be criminals every single time. There is no such thing as "journalistic ethics" or morals in them. None. So stop with the bullshit about their "rights as journalists". You're just playing into their propaganda.
...but all social media makes life on Earth worse. Facebook is one of the larger problems, but all of it, Instagram, Twitter, etc. are an insidious and metastasizing cancer on all of humanity. The very few positive aspects are far outweighed by the negatives (like saying a cancerous tumor helps you lose weight, so it isn't all bad).
Nothing. Trump will ignore the law. Trump will fundraise on the "threats from libs!" The "law" won't do anything and Trump will continue to raise money and spew lies and propaganda all while the "libs!" wring their hands and moan about how unfair they're being treated and the Democrats in Congress argue about which verb or noun is more appropriate and continue to get absolutely nothing done.

LEOs are nothing but criminal gangs and terrorist organizations. And should be treated as such.
