Hey, at least some of them fought for the whole war, unlike you. They actually declared war on the Germans, and suffered because they have a long border with them (plus Belgium). Some people had to chicken the War out until somebody declared war on them...
Even if any of that were true, it still doesn't explain why such a tiny, safe flyspeck village needs better armaments than the average combat battalion.
This. Because of course Communist Eastern Europe, the USSR and China are/were glorious examples of lack of crime.
Except how do you end up with so many 'criminals' in gulags or digging canals?
No, authoritarianism just makes it easier to lock people up on the slightest whim, not to actually make anyone safer or reduce crime. Unless reporting crime stats is a crime so not done...
Most EU companies aren't remotely ready either. But as long as you can show you are working towards being compliant that covers a lot of initial problems.

It covers any personal data tied to personal identifiers, including (ugh) IP addresses. So if there is a way to tie your 'anonymous' comment to your (then) IP address, that may count in. But it's a huge fluffy area which will probably take some litigation to clarify, unfortunately.
Your second line rather breaks people controlling their own lives. It's hard when some random cowardly psychopath with a murdertoy fetish can come along and end your life suddenly. Or instead of a cop killing you, a serial killer might.

IF Obama had had any kind of foreign help, especially Russian (they were still the "baddies" then, remember?), the GOP would have been shouting that from the rooftops, instead of pathetic and belated attempts to pretend someone born in Hawai'i had been born in Kenya to a non-American mother.
Cartman is hardly the poster boy for "innocent white boy hard done-by unfair laws protecting minorities", especially as it's hard to imagine him throwing rocks at a minority without accompanying insults.
Besides, throwing rocks at someone is assault, so certainly police could be involved. Wspecially those school police you employ to make sure all the black kids get shuffled efficiently into the school-jail pipeline, while the white kids learn that the police are there to call on black people they don't like being in "their" public places, amirite?
Following that logic, look for the NRA to push that the government mandates that everyone in the US MUST carry/possess guns, or else they are "denying someone the 'right' to carry a murdertoy".
Funny how that "apparent absence of evidence so let's dial it to 11" standard gets dropped when evaluating Global Warming. Oh wait, because any actual evidence is anathema.
