It’s funny how everyone wants to complain about cuts to this and that, yet they offer up zero solutions as to how to acquire the funds to support the programs receiving cuts.

Our country is going through a tumultuous time in industry, and unless we get that up and running efficiently by investing heavily in making Canadian products and finding new international buyers, there won’t be any money to spend on any social programs in the future either. According to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, those of security and sustenance and more important than the need for community. I know my answer sucks, but stable pyramids are built from the ground up and not the top down.

This is a long transition that, hopefully, in several years, will see us self sufficient and prosperous, and able to fully fund the needs of all Canadians. Until then, every community, every one, will feel the sting of financial hardship. The sooner we get up and running, the shorter the pain of the sting.

Because they can’t fight a ground war. You think American would just happily accept Trump’s assassination and move on? And Russia would happily accept Putin’s? There’d be terrible war, and since America would overwhelm Russia, the Russians would use their only ace in the hole and nuke America as they know America will show no quarter and they’d rather take as many with them before they go. You, and just almost all commenters in this thread, seem to underestimate the retardedness of the saber-rattling idiots that step in to fight to fill the void of the delusional dead leaders.

I’m done trying to talk sense in this thread. If you and every other pussy in this thread is as tough as their comments are, I implore you to head to Alaska and take these asshole leaders out. Either way, the world will be better off as there’s be fewer idiots left to dumb down our species.

How often do you down vote online comments as a joke? Well I got a whole bunch of em in this thread. I’m sure war is all jokes to the people here. Smh

War isn’t fought toe-to-toe anymore. It’s done remotely. Yes the Russian military is garbage now. But if even 3% of their nukes successfully land, the casualties would be in the tens of millions, if not hundreds.

Russia may be inept, but the threat of their nukes is not to be underestimated. I severely doubt the Russians that follow Putin would say thank you and leave it at that. Power vacuums create worse conditions than the conditions under the tyrants. It would get much worse before it ever got better.

I’m glad there’s one person with sense in this thread. Who would’ve thought my least popular comment in the Fediverse would be calling for caution over starting WW3?

These idiots here can forfeit their own lives if they want, but don’t forfeit my little girl’s life because you’re too lazy to open a psychology and a history book. You don’t assassinate world leaders on foreign soil and get away with it, scot free.

I certainly don’t feel like all cops are bad unless they let people die. I don’t know how you got that interpretation. I said the cops didn’t do their job and deserved a harsher penalty for failing to do so. I meant that not just for the two cops in the story, but for all their peers to witness the consequences of dereliction of duty too.

I also said this young man didn’t die due to the cops’ negligence, but to his own poor choices. He knew that medication was important and didn’t bring it. He knew sickle cell anemia weakened his organs. And he knew that his choices that night weren’t good for his body, especially with his condition. He chose to do all the things he did anyways, and he paid the ultimate price. Is this sad, yes. Is this preventable, also yes. Did he make the choices he needed to make to ensure his safety? No. He was found motionless less than an hour after being detained, and pronounced dead less than an hour after that. He was more than two hours away from home and his meds.

I see this as being not much different than lathering one’s self up in blood and taking a walk through the savannah. Sure there’s a chance you’ll make it out the other end ok, but most times not. Is it the lions fault that person died, or is it their own fault for not heeding warnings and making unsafe choices?

We all know what our system is. We need to keep that in mind if we do things that risk running afoul of it (And no, I don’t like our system much either, hence the acab statement). If we fail to heed the warnings of our family, friends, doctors and news outlets, well then we shouldn’t be so surprised when Darwinism happens.

Good. Let’s hope that federal domestic terrorists continue to have domestic terrorist threats thrust upon them. Make them terrified to go to work. Make them terrified to do their job. Make them terrified to be such shitty people. They deserve it. This crap needs to end so we don’t descend into another dark age.

Every military had it’s losses. Is America powerless because it couldn’t win the wars in the Middle East? Or on drugs? Or in Vietnam?

Remember when Putin supplanted the military uprising a couple years ago? I understand where you’re coming from and want to see Russia, as it is, end. But calling for mutually assured destruction is such a poor choice when there are solutions that don’t risk the start of WW3 to explore first.

If that were true the rest of the world would have swooped in and caused a regime change. Look at Ukraine. Do you really think Russia is powerless? If so, please enlist as a mercenary for the Ukrainians if you’re so sure Russia’ll be disposed of with pitchforks.

It’d certainly be nice to restrict them from thriving, developing and expanding. They don’t deserve it and the EU needs to grow some balls and do the right thing. Who the fuck cares what America’s opinion is on this matter. They’re unreliable and just as terrible as Israel. The EU doesn’t need goods or services from either country, and it’s time they stand apart from them.

While I love the idea of fighting back against Maga, won’t this lead to voting being a waste of time in the long run? This just sounds like a new way to rig an election so that democracy is no longer practiced.

It’d be nice if there was a plan to reset the gerrymandering, or institute electoral reform, after this one time election so we can all experience democracy, as intended.

I think you need to look at it more in depth. Would there be a power struggle? Yes, most assuredly, but not instantaneously. But if it were the other way around, and Russia lopped off Trump’s head, do you really think Maga wouldn’t retaliate and would instead fight over the presidency first? It’d be simultaneous, as those with their fingers on the bombs would use them to show they deserve the role of leader through force.

Are you suggesting someone starts WW3 by shooting Putin down? Because that’s what would happen. While I don’t like the US or Russia, I don’t think their citizens deserve to die as collateral damage from the nuclear blasts. These leaders and their government lackeys need to go, but the only safe way to have them offed (for the rest of the world) is through rebellious uprising by their own citizens.

I don’t recall saying he deserved to die. You’re putting words in my mouth.

I dug some more online and discovered he died from heart failure due to cocaine in his system after partying all night. He was pulled over at 7:45am and hadn’t slept yet. The guy seems to have made many poor choices and they caught up with him.

The cops here sucked, and this guy’s choices sucked. The cops deserved a much harsher penalty. The guy didn’t deserve to die due to cop negligence, and his death wasn’t a direct result of the negligence. He fafo’d with the limits of his body.

Did you read the article? The alleged criminal had sickle cell anemia but did not die from complications of that. The officers neglected to log that medical issue and did not allow him to get his medication for anemia.

I dug a little bit more for you Hacksaw. The guy was pulled over at 7:45 in the morning. He had been partying all night in a different city and hadn’t slept as he and his friend drove to Montreal after partying all night long. His cause of death was heart failure due to cocaine in his system. He was 23 and already had two outstanding warrants. I couldn’t find it what those were for, only that they were not related to weapons.

I’m firmly of the belief that acab. Well, 90% of them anyways. This dude, while not dangerous, was also not an upstanding citizen. He died from his poor choices.

I hope you learn to get as much info as you can before you go blasting people online. For the record, I volunteered in loss and bereavement for 8 years. “Passed” is a preferred term for the deceased.

Edited for an autocorrect error.

While I can understand that proper procedure was violated and this caused the reduction, these officers failed to do their duty properly and were caught. The criminal who passed did have two outstanding warrants. It seems to me like everybody sucks here, but the cops shouldn’t have gotten off so lightly with that suspension reduction.

I think it would be better if the Zionists resettled in South Sudan instead.

I wish more people who believe in justice had your attitude. We wouldn’t be degrading into Orwellian 1984 standards if the powers that be received just 2% pushback with the same magnitude of force they employ.

Democracy dies because Americans, the gun-toting, freedom-fighting, liberty-loving citizens they are, are in fact giant. fucking. cowards. In general.

I can get behind your sentiment of just blowing off steam, but I feel like it actually has the opposite long term effect that these people are going for. What I mean is that it creates a sense of complacency.

Unfortunately, I don’t think the Trump regime is going anywhere. There is no riding this out. You just have to turn on any news source to see the violations to peace, freedom and democracy he’s violating. It’s been 6 months and this much has already been done. Very sadly to me, I don’t think peaceful protest or voting will change anything.

We’ve all read history and we can surmise that this will only get worse. Much much worse. He’s coming for everyone who dissents one group at a time. We, with any kind of wisdom, know where this goes. The only positive change will call for crimson streets.

My suggestion to blow off steam is to learn to use a gun and how to use it well. Words are water off the backs of the pedo class. I hate this new world.

The problems with Americans that say this is that this sentence is the limit to the extent they’re willing to fight for their freedom. You’re not absolved of the responsibility for your government. Regardless of how much you hate them, they represent you. The government’s actions are yours.
