She'll create more people that she'll need to help

2018-07-16 07:20:07 UTC

Depends. Unemployment from minimum wage hikes are usually only short term, so long as the hike is found to be tolerable.

2018-07-16 07:20:16 UTC

@Scarlet well, think about it this way. Democrats overwhelmingly support citizenship of illegal immigrants and oppose deportations. A lot of them also support open borders. The most famous authority that carries out deportations and tracks down illegal immigrants is ICE, so they are in direction opposition to the previously mentioned policies.
Hence, they want to abolish ICE.

2018-07-16 07:21:09 UTC

Yeah but if you sit down and think about it, it'd be better to repurpose the agency. I guess you could kill the agency and move the personnel to something else, but just exploding it and calling it a day

2018-07-16 07:21:12 UTC

would be pretty pointless

2018-07-16 07:21:16 UTC

Yep

2018-07-16 07:21:38 UTC

Some people on the Leftists faction dont want to abolish ICE, they want to reform it

2018-07-16 07:21:39 UTC

well it would have a point, it would serve to help to collapse the entire country

2018-07-16 07:21:41 UTC

which is the goal

2018-07-16 07:21:51 UTC

That seemed to be the general idea i saw until very recently

2018-07-16 07:22:06 UTC

Dunno where the 'Abolish ICE' people came from honestly.

2018-07-16 07:22:27 UTC

Im going to assume the fad will fade sooner or later.

2018-07-16 07:24:43 UTC

It will

2018-07-16 07:24:54 UTC

Not many people are in favor of abolishing border control

2018-07-16 07:25:26 UTC

Itll be like "common sense gun control"

2018-07-16 07:25:54 UTC

Some of it can be called 'common sense' like universal backround checks

2018-07-16 07:26:02 UTC

"common sense instant deportation of anyone that crosses illegally"

2018-07-16 07:26:05 UTC

There already is that IIRC

2018-07-16 07:26:07 UTC

Limiting the magazine to this or that, or making strange rules for what is and isnt allowed though

2018-07-16 07:26:13 UTC

Not so much

2018-07-16 07:27:24 UTC

can't have any of that dangerous black plastic

2018-07-16 07:27:47 UTC

black plastic makes bullets fired from the gun 86.4% more deadly to humans

2018-07-16 07:28:28 UTC

Just to humans?

2018-07-16 07:28:33 UTC

yes

2018-07-16 07:28:38 UTC

If people can only use a pistol you have a better chance of dodging the bullets.

2018-07-16 07:28:44 UTC

Hmm, the more you know

2018-07-16 07:28:57 UTC

What's black plastic? o.O

2018-07-16 07:29:24 UTC

Plastic. Dyed black. Presumably?

2018-07-16 07:29:25 UTC

Well, lets be fair, why would I shoot something that's easy to dodge

2018-07-16 07:29:59 UTC

"assault" weapons bans tend to target guns based on how they look, meaning one gun can be illegal while a gun that is functionally identical is legal

2018-07-16 07:30:02 UTC

Let's be fair why would you ever shoot a gun? It gives PTSD.

2018-07-16 07:30:06 UTC

I don't get how that's more dangerous to only humans o.O

2018-07-16 07:30:13 UTC

it was a joke

2018-07-16 07:30:18 UTC

Oh @_@

2018-07-16 07:30:22 UTC

I thought he was serious "OTZ

2018-07-16 07:30:26 UTC

Just like D&D?

2018-07-16 07:30:33 UTC

lmao

2018-07-16 07:30:45 UTC

D&D is amazing! You take that back! Or I'll keyboard warrior you!

2018-07-16 07:31:00 UTC

Fuck it, I'm tired, we'll fight another night

2018-07-16 07:31:11 UTC

I agree, but some snowflakes claim it gave then PTSD

2018-07-16 07:31:19 UTC

Them*

2018-07-16 07:31:39 UTC

It was hilarious @Ashers

2018-07-16 07:32:24 UTC

That is ... Nope, just nope, I'm going to bed xD No more of these silly people

2018-07-16 07:32:29 UTC

๐Ÿค”

2018-07-16 07:32:55 UTC

"one time i was in an imaginary scenario and it was a traumatic enough event to cause permanent mental damage to me"

2018-07-16 07:33:01 UTC

```The recoil bruised my shoulder, which can happen if you don't know what you're doing. The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face. The smell of sulfur and destruction made me sick. The explosions โ€” loud like a bomb โ€” gave me a temporary form of PTSD. For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable.```

2018-07-16 07:33:15 UTC

sounds like someone needs a straight jacket

2018-07-16 07:33:28 UTC

I can't format. rip

2018-07-16 07:33:41 UTC

Yay

2018-07-16 07:33:51 UTC

Im a Canadian thats never been near a fired gun

2018-07-16 07:33:55 UTC

But Jesus christ man

2018-07-16 07:33:56 UTC

i feel like these people don't know what ptsd is

2018-07-16 07:33:59 UTC

This is embarassing

2018-07-16 07:34:25 UTC

I think they're not lying, it's just how sheltered they are

2018-07-16 07:34:29 UTC

"i was anxious and irritable for a few hours" =/= PTSD

2018-07-16 07:35:29 UTC

It would've been amazing if the person filed for government assistance for the "PTSD"

2018-07-16 07:35:58 UTC

Well they did say 'temporary'

2018-07-16 07:36:06 UTC

I think they were just genuinely shaken by the experience.

2018-07-16 07:36:10 UTC

if you had PTSD fireworks would do to you what the fire alarm did to my cat

2018-07-16 07:36:16 UTC

And failed to describe that well

2018-07-16 07:36:59 UTC

Still, being so terrified of a firearm you yourself are firing is quite embarassing

2018-07-16 07:37:39 UTC

i can see it for some types of older guns from before we figured out how to reliably make them not explode in your hands

2018-07-16 07:37:45 UTC

but for a modern gun... yeeeeah

2018-07-16 07:37:56 UTC

Well, vulnerable little animals are startled by loud noises.

2018-07-16 07:38:35 UTC

Yes they are vulnerable little animals.

2018-07-16 07:38:37 UTC

I can imagine that happening if i fired a musket

2018-07-16 07:38:54 UTC

I dunno

2018-07-16 07:39:00 UTC

Maybe actually knowing how a gun works mechanically

2018-07-16 07:39:05 UTC

Really dispels alot of this

2018-07-16 07:39:11 UTC

He probably has zero idea

2018-07-16 07:39:13 UTC

Being irritable for hours?. It's usually a liberating experience

2018-07-16 07:39:23 UTC

... Is it?

2018-07-16 07:39:32 UTC

probably depends on your mindset going into it

2018-07-16 07:39:39 UTC

Long term irritability rarely happens for healthy reasons

2018-07-16 07:39:44 UTC

Often its due to stress

2018-07-16 07:39:57 UTC

It's definitely liberating

2018-07-16 07:40:02 UTC

i haven't shot a gun in a looooooong time but i remember my dad letting me shoot cans with his .22 when i was little and my reaction was just childlike wonder

2018-07-16 07:40:19 UTC

I've shot a lot. Very fun.

2018-07-16 07:40:32 UTC

"this is so coooOOOOOOooool" -me, age ~8

2018-07-16 07:41:07 UTC

And if it feels intimidating, just imagine what you're shooting is Karl Marx

2018-07-16 07:41:16 UTC

lmao

2018-07-16 07:41:38 UTC

https://youtu.be/UujtfN7hCdo I'm gonna leave this here

2018-07-16 07:43:01 UTC

that intro lmao

2018-07-16 07:43:21 UTC

"does it go here? does it go... heeeere? does it g-oh it snapped into place i guess it goes there"

2018-07-16 07:44:02 UTC

I have some footage of my 25mm bushmaster hits from when I was in the Navy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8EStax1-To https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTPSnSaaXHY

2018-07-16 07:44:12 UTC

Good times.

2018-07-16 07:45:02 UTC

Isnt that the thing they mount on the Kodiak?

2018-07-16 07:45:08 UTC

(The bushmaster)

2018-07-16 07:45:27 UTC

That looks oddly dope

2018-07-16 07:45:45 UTC

Yeah, it is.

2018-07-16 07:45:50 UTC

That might be a 30mm version of it.

2018-07-16 07:46:03 UTC

that's pretty lit

2018-07-16 07:46:11 UTC

Nope, 25mm M242

2018-07-16 07:46:16 UTC

O wait ya it says 25mm.

2018-07-16 07:46:21 UTC

So that's what I used.

2018-07-16 07:46:30 UTC

Just on a different platform.

2018-07-16 07:46:35 UTC

Seems like it.

2018-07-16 07:47:13 UTC

man civillian-owned LAV's when tbh
