this is gonna end well
8 hours a day is to much, i even went working 2 days a week 8 hours a day for would say close to $2k a month and it was to much so i quit after a year cause it think its important to work at something you enjoy that way it feels like you put 0 hour of work a day
ai cars still have a way to go
would be interesting to see the us vs pretty much the us
given how many NATO countries are using us weapons systems
losers finally understand how superpowers work
yes
superpower about to find out what made it a superpower in the first place
lol this pic
cause someone here was throwing hypocrisy left and right
this guy never disappoints https://www.themirror.com/news/politics/breaking-trump-says-election-should-1601480?%253F23=
people would call me a dictator if I did dictator things
thats assuming the US doesnt just activate the killswitch in every modern bit of tech
every F35 the EU sends against us gets set to return to andrews
marshall china have it on busses and more
they don't even have to put explosives on mobile device you could probably rig a lithium cell phone battery to do just that
you realize the venezuela had top notch chinese and russian defense systems right? and they never saw a thing coming
america is really good at brainwashing its citizens that's for sure
I never claimed they would not be able to do a successful military operation in greenland btw
might makes right is just not something that's sustainable in the long term
tbh the shit ive seen and cant talk about with us military infrastructure...
yeah they keep saying they could nuke russia before a response too π
sure
nah nukes are on a totally different wavelength
US space carrier concept
yes
you attack a country that pays what $100 soldier wage and have high expectation
its stupid funny
MARINE muscles are required intelligence not essential
you forget how much killing a cornfed inbread facker will do for 3 meals and a cot

Welcome back to Le...
i always love these counters when most people break like 20 laws a day, 99.999% of them will never get prosecuted
only reason us is still standing its cause it exports debts, prints money out of thin air, as long a the dollar is strong its in human nature to be corrupt thats why politician around the world sell out their natural resources so easily, surprised Venezuela lasted this long and survived so many coup attempts
first of, who's breaking 20 laws a day, second not getting prosecuted does not make it not a crime
Only law that matter is physics, what you can do and can't do tbh
hell i break the law by not storing my ammo 'correctly'
its all in a sealed, hard shell container, but your supposed to separate the ammo by rounds
I don't think most people do those things on a regular basis tbh
physics
haha
and also I don't see how these petty crimes are related to the head of state commiting fraud and shit on a daily basis
never said they were equivalent
just funny how many people think THEY dont break any laws
when comparing themselvs to anyone else
allright then
tbh steam customer support better
American car repair in two simple steps, easy to remember
tbh american cars suck balls
why do they all do that gut wrenching fugly botox/plastic surgery? who the fuck actually finds that attractive?
anyone ever had this issue cause of heat
never had cheap recolors of my cars but ive seen them
they look expensive
expensive and about as useful as spinning rims
interestingly same demographic
but like REAL recolors are stripping the paint of the panel, then redoing it properly
not this essentially shrink wrap solution
I need to go to sleep before the matrix collapses https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5675182-trump-launches-jan6-website/

why would you want the middle east
I feel I do.
second one was more too BUSY
the whole movie felt like one long action shot
vs the first independence day where is was a slow ramp up to the action then ramp down, then ramp up for the final main scene

That's why you are short on ideas.
They should keep going.
Eventually, they'll lose enough jarheads to become totally pacifist. One can hope....
Either that, or a marine corps will drag the white house out to the field and say, "YOU go fight. We'll sign the orders."
Yay!
Oh, please. You must learn to discriminate.
There's myspy and hispy.

It's all true. It's all F@#$!ing true.
No worries. Greenland will stand strong.
The snow-howitzers are already being readied.
They are going to buy it
@mild gust
Lol. He really hates India's silent treatment, doesn't he?
He really, truly doesn't like it, when he's ignored by someone.
BREAKING: U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, has informed Congress that the United States intends to purchase Greenland.
Well you know the choices they will have
--- Indian state-owned refiners are buying Russian oil for future deliveries amid U.S. warnings of more tariffs. ---
Lmao. So, they are buying in advance to circumvent future tariffs.
"User Experience"
That reminds me.
I have to cut my MS Office subscription this April and switch to Zoho. Fun times.
ugggh
I hope they were strong words
There were f* bombs.
least they wernt A* bombs
Then one of their politicians got censured for being impolite.
Total war: Three Kingdoms is free on epic
Never
Time to invade then! π£
The Marshall bandits face the wrath of the Ponkkissian villagers.
Volley!
Isn't that a trend is snowy areas
they definitely have money to spare right now
germany is promising protection of ukraine and greenland
we know how this ends
maybe they wanna be the good guys this time around
How many bitcoins is greenland?
at least three fiddy
If the US steals Greenland for it's military advantages in terms of being able to use it to station and transport between the US and Europe/Russia in times of war, and nobody can do anything about it because it's not an easy place to get the hardware of war transported to, I have to ask the question..... will they have a McDonalds and will it adhere to the free refill policy?
30 minutes until my bakery dungeon run ποΈ !
mmm baked goods
Im going to eat three Shredded Wheat
OMG. I asked Path of Exile to do one of their old Boss vs Boss videos (they used to be popular a few years ago but they stopped doing them) and they bloody well went and did it !

Oh yeah, I remember that.
Donald Duck needs to store his diet coke somewhere to keep it cold
they already have military bases there btw
you can just walk if yuo want
I will compromise and jog.
Happy?
sure
yeah? I didn't know that. I wonder why they want to own it then. Maybe there has been some oil discovery π
there's valuable minerals
and with global warming the shipping routes there open up and become very important
you'd be surprised how little of anything the USAs part of the americas has
also, every time a leader is very unpopular with they population, taking extra territory is the move
they were lucky to get alaska
USAs primary exports, entertainment and weapons
while needing basically everything they dont have π
Trump said, "We have to win the mid-terms, or I might get impeached." Now, why would that happen to such a nice guy?
Bestest guy, bigly leader.
He can't lose, you heathen! He can fail to win though.
So, you can't have that.
These people had a bad time invading us.
it'll be voter fraud if they lose the mid terms
surprised he didnt set that up in advance
He has tried, but the Supreme Court isn't entirely backing him.
Even Lord Beer is sticking to the constitution, or his interpretation of it over the Overlord Orange's needs.
don't threaten me with a good time
I apologise.
Good news, he'll burn the other side of the White House down tomorrow.
I bet he doesnt even get his ballroom finished in his term
just like he never finished his wall
It won't.
They already said it wouldn't be finished, I think.
ONE of the reasons he wants to be there for the THIRD term.
it's a great funnel for bribes though
Of course, IF he does play a stupid con and run for a third term, he can go up against Barack. π
Trump wont even beat Clinton let alone Obama π
I suppose the Bush boys might double team him
Only black man the M00ricans respect, honestly.
The worst the uneducated idiots can even say about him is, "DRONE STRIKES!!!!"
The best part of that is, Biden's worst ratings were primarily because of how they handled his health issues, and his optics.
M00RICA!!!!
Everyone just piled on Obama because he was an easy target
They tried, you mean. But they had nothing to say honestly, and he left one of the most popular US presidents in history.
Heck, the democrats wanted HIM for a 3rd term.
I don't know if you remember, but I loved seeing that rally, where everyone was shouting, "ONE MORE TIME!"
I mean, he did wear a tan suit, idk if we can ever forgive him for that
And the pure grace of the man who replied, "No, no, no! We have a constitution."
He did inherit quite the shit show tbh
Should've worn a white suit, honestly.
Would've been more inclusive.
Obama the President who dropped the most amount of bombs and won a nobel peace prize
Trump is soooo jelly and wants his boots
and the racists should be happy too, cause obama actually deported more people than trump
which shows you how effective this ICE bullshit is
I love how Stephen Miller was like, "You need to deport MOARRRR people," to ICE.
Trump is an actor so its all about optics, the reality totally never mattered
he's basically temu Reagan
You know what enough people aren't talking about - how Trump is going to send all the Venezuelan refugees in the US right back to camps in Venezuela.
I freed your country, now go back to your shithole.
Disclaimer: A prediction. Not reality, for the uneducated... yet.
he also needs greenland
the USA deserves it
bigly
this is all just to distract you from the Links Gaza starting construction
also apparently only 1% of the epstein files have been released so far
Brb, bakery raid in progress.
I hurt my neck looking at it
A lot of ads for that guy (there is no bad ad they say).

you need mecha musk like the end of wolfenstein

he needs the money for his ballroom
not to mention restore righteous democracy.
They are going to starve Venezuela and want the oil for free, law of the jungle
you cant help yourself πΊπΈ
yeah, "will be controlled by me" is definitely gonna end well
also, that's peanuts to the amount of money the US spends in a single day
read that's how much they produce in 30 days so if they are not starving now what about then
so idk how the venezuelan and US people are gonna benefit
think us politicians underestimate patriotism in this case
bread will take over the world
which nutrients?
seriously ?
apparently most nutrients are even added (at least for white bread)
not that i would call that bread but rather sweets π
dieter bread some say have more nutrients
Apparently, honey can't be consumed anymore ||in Manor Lords||.
I heard theres actually very little oil left like in saudi arabia and thats the real reason for venezuela and greenland
yeah US bread is dogshit
no social measures in us only capitalism profit thats why your society is falling
they make the most plain thing with nothing of value and then add everything they want back in
and sugar for some reason
Ben's not American - referring to the 'your'.
correct, but we were talking about us bread
you go visit us for a week and come back having cancer lol
it's not wonder they're all obese tbh
I knew a guy that went to disneyland and he ordered a cinamon bun
that shit had 3500kcal
that's more than daily intake for someone doing heavy manual labor
They need the energy, given the amount of chest thumping they do on a daily basis.
@median wraith Does Spain have these magic goats?
you have your math and history all wrong bud
Venezuela actually ended at a loss
I guess Indians should rise up and demand their home back and deport all the black and whites just cause
Slavery is no dead is just called capitalism nowdays, you control the money you control the people and the world
one trade capitalism to socialism
you are still forced to use the $ if not we bomb you, any country that tries to move away from the dollar get overthrown, Lybia is the best example there is
You create money out of thin air, why pay taxes when gov prints money

Give me some mins cuz on street
Hevedy sent me this one yesterday
Or the demon Goaroo, the Terrible?
Goatolf the grey
the goat from goat simulator went off and worked on this fantasy franchise
its what we call a goat-like
this is just one of the outfits, we have goat armour and everything
Horny horns too?

what is this from, feels like either empyrion or SE2
could it be... Eve π
Eve online
this surprises you?
Well, yeah. 'Cuz those visas are FEW and not just during Trump's reign.
god i lost so much time and effort into eve because of the stupid fortizar update after moving over from my old station
3.4 billion isk worth of stock lost because i went on vacation for 2 weeks while they changed over the upkeep mechanic
ohhh boy, that sounds worse than any open world game Ive had to grind in
yeah i gave up after loosing my 45 million isk fort with all those supplies, not to battle, but to a mechanic update
some update got it someday
havent touched eve since
did you see gamers nexus of intel please safe us
nope.
Gonna be buried with my 3080 ti
intel got more things inhouse now
sad in already 12gb 3060
more Avengers: Doomsday hype
eve online ship
ironic that the 3060 had pretty much VRAM for a nvidia card of that class
and afaik it's even GDDR6
the more ram and the more dedicated gpu memory the larger the shared gpu memory, i did come across instance in unreal engine where i needed 50 gb of video memory, ram usage was close to 200 gb
The 3060 12gb was and remains the best performance per price point
Never had any complaints with it
haven't been in the market but i see GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 5070 Windforce OC SFF 12GB GDDR7 192-bit DLSS 4.0 goes for almost $ 700
Nvidia to stop selling consumer cards after the final run of 3060s
its all about the GPU now Grok Processing Unit

https://www.businessinsider.com/photos-venezuela-before-economic-collapse - This is a wonderful read.
is this about the ice agent shooting someone in their car while driving backwards?
killing*
Yep.
ICE says the woman tried to ram them.
Some video says otherwise.
Mayor just told ICE, "Get the F*@! out of Minnesota!"
this part ?
I guess.
do you want video from different angle lmao
I didn't ask.
I do.
I imagine games will get more complicated with AI NPCs anyway, with proper conversations and all involved.
So having someone help you through difficult patches might not be bad. In fact, having an AI makes things MOAR difficult if you are playing well, might not be a bad idea.
hmm for facts checking i guess
I still have no idea what this game is about, I just listen to its soundtrack, they have some good music 
idk why you waste your time on generic game when porn games is the way to go if you want to make money and its a whole different learning curve
I swear after seeing this video
immediately thought of
Take a deep breath
njoy the winter
trump definitely gonna tweet about him
Interesting
Kinda looks like she tried to escape and almost ran the guy over doing it. Then crashed because ice. Not ICE.
debatable since she turned right, "not my opinion"
Yes, I don't think she intended to run him over, she was just reckless.
s@#t like that don't happen in civilized countries and law enforcement is not that fast on the trigger at least where i'm from
I don't even see what happened other than she put her foot down and crashed into a car. At what point was she shot?
well if you get shot and your foot is on the gas
There was definitely shots fired in those clips
Avoiding the question?
I'm on my phone and the 8m one isn't loading, can't see much.
guy that shot
i think people have been brainwashed about russia tbh
In what way?
i mean to you want to see a guy holding a mg and not shooting at a speeding bike in russia ?
cop is runned over but does not shoot
Army bears?
As long as they use horses and dogs.
gun control, us is wild west but its an industry like drugs
gov knows how to make people fight each other over stupid topics like religion, sex, race whatever so they are not to blame, smoke an mirrors
How could the government make mistakes they are pefect beings created in a lab.
Keeps us busy
If you think the problem is your next door neighbour with a different hat to you then you don't see the real problem.
i mean take a serious thought about what it takes for a man to become a terrorist, the amount of brainwashing it takes and now days its used left and right, what would it take for you to become a suicide bomber, how low should your life become etc.
I blame the darn AI oligarchs.
Hopefully there will be a self aware AI to end it all π
It will realize humans suck

Xenu will set us free

Got something against jews?
religions like judaism that need to set the world on fire so their savior might come should be straight banned just an opinion
They only contributed about 1/4 of all nobel prizes
to many fanatics
i jus recently found out israel does not allow dna testing lol
Well seeing as you can test the dna of a lizard and have it come back as a jew
I believe them.
I wouldn't test my dna either
Fuck that lineage crap
All goobledegook
i think its mostly cause everyone is not from middle east as they would like it to think so they don't have a claim over palestine and most famous jews had their name changed
I think people care about it more than they probably need to personally.
would be a lot different if monkeys did not have the ability to lie

Ubisoft has shut down its Halifax Studio, just one month after 61 of its 71 workers voted to unionized. https://t.co/lYHZ8GQrF0
well working for a triple A studio not be in the top tier branch is worse than being a slave
top established studios have marketing relations they could have a krappy game compared to yours but still have more sales due to marketing
Lol
Now they can make the next expedition 33
yeah i don't get the final fantasy krap but it seems to sell
It's less intensive
Than some other rpg styles
I personally prefer the baldurs gate style
my next game is going to have only two buttons tops for control preferably only mouse, audience getting dumber by the year and it seems over two buttons is to much π€£
Click and spacebar
Make it like runescape
Spacebar to skip dialog
So they can drift off
nah only mouse to keep at least one hand free with changeable button in case of left hand, going to be a porn game 
Tell your players to buy a special mouse
That has multiple buttons
Then startup a mouse company
That sells said mouse
probably has already been done by an established company
You think someone else made a porn game and specifically made a mouse for it?
imagine of type of platform but made into gaming and with ai its going to be a killer
what has the us come to? How can they say they are going well?

Numenor π€ Mordor
So that means the King of Denmark could be President of the USA?
sounds like a good deal π
I mean he's a known russian puppet so
even more openly than trump
They are all puppets mic runs the show, warmongering for profit when conflicts have already been agreed on rest is show and circus and idiots dying for nothing
that is some tinfoil shit right there
Think about it for a second, take ukraine conflict, could russia drop a bomb on the parliament and on zelensky and be done with it like us did in 03 with iraq ? idea is to have endless war they generate most profit, take Afghanistan as prime example, trillions of dollars of tax payers money in 20 years just to have taliban replaced by the taliban
who's mic?
military industrial complex, the ones that sell you bananas about democracy and justice bullshit to take your money to make weapons lmao π€£
russia is emptying it's physical gold reserve into their stupid war, I don't think it's the "mic"
you have an inside man checking on their gold levels ? compare the russia defense budget to the us budget π«’ russia needed a pretext to rearm and restock the tech was very old you have to sell the bs to both side of the population to support the military spending
its a bit like this pic but putin is missing from it
what? they are spending fortunes on sign on and death payments for soldiers, the MIC is just a boogeyman, war is happening cus they want more territory
that very narrow minded or tunnel vision way to look at things, check the lobbyists and whos making bank and you find the truth, follow the money
territory annexation is literally 90% of what they want, the other 10% is having a pliable government installed. This was supposed to take them a week, remember
it's like saying the toilet industrial complex is the reason you need to take a piss
you do realize there has been a war going on since 2014 right that over 10 years now
US and Russia are the worlds two largest weapons exporters
its not a business interest to make peace
or is that too tinfoil π
tinfoil is saying russia gold reserves are depleting π
do yourselves a favour and stop watching judging freedom, ben davis, the duran and all those other loons
US decoupled $ from gold standard and coupled it with oil for over 50 years now i believe
imagine what the world could accomplish together if it didnt waste Trillions on military spending
power, law of the jungle do as i say or i kill you, there will always be profiteers
amen, sadly in this age, there are still places that want to build empire by force
EU was a good standard in atleast trying to spend the least on military, and now it's got them caught behind the pack when some crap starts
human behavior hasn't changed for 20000 years only thing that did is technology and new way we kill each other
we never learn though do we, only takes a small pandemic to shake things up, thankfully it wasnt that bad but it could be far worse next time... none of those weapons will save us
EU is trash especially the laws that are coming out of late, my god, turning into USSR with each passing day and worse
EU is based
good food standards and regulations, literally the only state atleast making some real effort to push against tech monopolies
oh well, while US and Russia have a pissing contest we'll see China walk on the moon
china probably wants to walk somewhere else..
not anymore capitalism and corruption has taken over, social measures are downgrading, no long till they come hunt you down for disliking a political post
they have some goofy stuff, but they have millennia to go to catch up to the literal dungeon style political oppression in russia and other states
no state is perfect
Probably, increasing their nuclear arsenal too, look what us and russia are doing, nuclear power attacking non nuclear states
Like the UK? π
I always find it mildly amusing the US tried its hardest to stay out of global affairs and WW2
after that, its like a pack of rabid people chanting "USA USA"
love it or hate it, 'merica is pretty strong
Trying to survive day to day life, lack of proper education, people don't have time to day dream and yet alone research topic, read books, study history, that how it was when we were still bow hunting and main concern was food before we had food supply chains, so keep the sheep distracted fight amongs them while we do what we want
strength doesnt determine good character though does it
as long as gas is cheap
Id argue its their strength which causes so much instability in the world to begin with, many of these conflict zones are because of US interference
america has for a long time been a dependable ally for its friends tbh
us does not have allies only interests, check how many military bases it has around the world and how many foreign military bases are in us
Putin literally cruised down in a submarine to the G20 and the US couldnt do a thing to stop him in the Pacific
a lot of those bases are there at the delight of the state, trip wires that used to allow those states to focus on their own economies and people rather than having to build up giant deterrent forces against aggressor states
aggressor states like the US?
its called colonialism
my point is if we wernt friends with the US we wouldnt even need the deterrent
the only state that has been consistently using force to expand its territory and dominion for the last 25 years is really just Russia, some others too but not at the scale and rapidity
why us said no to russia when it wanted to join nato lol
the US generally is acting at the behest of some ally, rather than it's own empire
gee I wonder
see US Empire, where the British Empire has let colonies go consistently to the point its no longer an Empire
the US does not have colonies, it's influence is basically economic and cultural.
not going to say thats all been for the better but letting go of the Commonwealth was the good thing to do
yeah like in Venezuela, total cultural victory
like Iraq, another huge cultural win
we'll see how well the cultural victory in Greenland goes
can't tell if your trolling or not
deposing dictators is not exactly the same as razing grozny city
yeah Australia totally railroaded the US into helping after 9/11
or trying to cut pieces of moldova, or georgia off, or unlawfully occupying territory
they completely flattened baghdad there was nothing left
if thats what you call deposing dictators
us is a dictatorship its called the deep state, you are just under the illusion of democracy and free election π€£
iraq had like, a big military, which they bombed
every us colony has a permanent state in place
culture bombed apparently
dropped Dr Dre CDs on their heads
wow you guys are really just a pair of EU and US hating russia bots aren't ya
They are
Throat full of commie dik
checks out
I just hate people who think freedom is by force
dont give a shit which part of Earth theyre from
how's that mcdonalds job working out for ya
US posion that shit
Dude
might as well huff Teflon
I only get to work 8 fucking hours this week
And that's today
No way in hell I'm getting all my gardening stuff before it's time to start planting early
What happened to being full time like they promised id be

you should work for KFC atleast they use real chickens even if they are mutant
just dont ask whats in the nuggets
don't be a Kentuckcist.
Im just promoting Australianism
if you gonna put meat down your throat make sure its big and bulky
not like Mr Small Hands
Punch, surely? π
if you like hypocrisy and double standards
They couldn't punch as they hopped off the plate.
australian beef is the best beef, no corn involved all gods green grass
take that US
GMO corn at that
You go 'n git your kuntry off of mee ma's military basis, ya hear?!!! β
there is so much of that crap corn now they are turning it into ethenol and watering down the petrol
my honest reaction: sucks to be iran
corn, shmorn!
Real indie devs eat bread!
humans already have a ton of plastic in their blood stream
I wonder how much these big Arab cities are making off Yankee troops
what was it, $500 for a coke
the way cia work in my opinion, provoke civil unrest before moving in
ahhh yes F35s, the plane no one can afford to fly into battle π
We had some guy from Iran here a week or two ago. His messages are deleted. Wonder how he's doing...
shoot down one of our F35s and thats basically our entire countries education budget down in smoke
hopefully not a protestor
I saw a video of some guy walking through the US at night, there were all these homeless zombies lining this street he had to dodge
free zombies are the best zombies
Fent zombies?
Fent > Rent
if he is the one driving the car into police like this, compared to us case do you consider lethal force is authorized ?
we get Methanys here but not many fent zombies
US has so many you think Resident Evil is happenin irl
its not a protest is you are quiped with ak47's shooting at people is it now π
wheres the gta2 sound fx
did you see that Israeli guy celebrating new years with an LMG unloading at Gaza?
such patriot
much ammo
oh yeah we shoot at tasmania all the time
cant wait till US wins some culture points in Australia and we can have paramilitary randomly shooting people on the street
"they were an illegal immigrant... maybe..."
it's terrible what happened with that, but I can't help but feel it's one of those situations where you need to be aware of the situation you are in
yeah like that Aussie chick who ran up to police for help in the US and they shot her
she shoulda known better than to try to get help
shoulda just bought a gun and blasted away
iunno, if a bunch of armed paramilitary guys were in my window telling me to stop, get out or whatever, I'd probably just comply instead of rolling the dice
especially the notorious ones
yeah isnt it great when you dont even know whos side theyre on
it's not about sides, it's about their training and so many unknowns
it is about sides, when you cant tell narcos from cartel
i'd rather not take the chance esp for a fine or some short detainment
They way i see it "tinfoil hat on" Putin-Trump conflict ending, agreed on Venezuela and Iran, with the next proxy MIC war being in Iran ? with usual theatrics we condem this and that for the average joe
thing is I get called a communist sympathiser for being against facism in the US, its fucking lunacy
iran just needs to come to the most obvious realization that positioning yourself as israels mortal enemy never goes well
we have crime here in Australia but if you run up on a cop they wont draw and fire out of fear
the US is so scared all the time of something and I dont understand why
because most people are more scared of them lol
this is a quote from the land of the free, it boggles my mind why its so insular, that this isnt seen as a fundamental breech of freedoms in a country lead by "the leader of the free world"
US are just a huge lot of posers, not free, never were
Israel its a made up state like Kosovo, safe haven for most notorious criminals in the world, its population is not even from the middle east to claim any heritage
I bet the free ones all live in gated communities protected by heavily armed HOA πΉ πΉ
you cant park there sir... BOOM
have you seen the gated jewish community in cyprus ?
cant say that I have, I used to live in Applecross in Perth some of those houses were worth an absolute mint
entirely not gated π
infact most gated communities here and retirement villages to keep the old folks in at night so they dont have to chase around a crowd of dimentia paitents
are you doing a segway from russia did nothing wrong and doesn't want land, to boilerplate antisemitism
oh here comes the antisemitism calling π€£
its not antisemitism if they put themselves in the gated community of their own volition π
so the new avengers movie will have x-men in it. i have a feeling this will be a hot mess trying to juggle all of these characters into one movie
so hevedy spain not have leading on unemployment rate anymore finland is new leader
We use makeup for the data
If you shoot her, you get free, life-long pension from ICE.
The lady in the GIF. I was making a gallows humour link to the ICE shooting earlier.
π€ In trying to close my jumbo loan credit card, I am asked to list a reason for said closure. One of the options is, "Leaving the country." I am glad India provides for all scenarios.
I'm generally a supporter of ice, but damn, he really just murderfaced her.
I am not sure if I heard correctly on the news, but her husband was also in the car and their kid too - I think.
Her husband at least.
Apparently he was shouting about it after she was shot.
Honestly, if you're attempting to run over ice agents, I'm totally okay with them shooting you, but she wasn't. And the guy clearly moved out of the way.
(before shooting her)
Yes, but remember that their cult is the poorly educated.
Angles, collision, clear avenues of travel - such things are not their forte.
Heh
I do feel for the guy, though, even though it was a massive overreaction.
The woman clearly accelerated at him.
He was just trigger happy.
Maybe he was just practising for his gun quals.
sometimes I am left wondering if these people are trained that when they set their weapon on someone, that person dies for real
How fast can you empty the chamber?
I'd say he passed. Headshot!
AND he qualified for traffic stop posts, too.
I dunno. He did cause a car accident!
Oi! He stopped a fugitive attempting to run away!
It'll be the basis for Police Simulator 10!
You jest, but she should have been arrested. All these people getting in the way of ice should be.
If you disrupt federal agents going about their lawful business, it's a crime.
If you aid and abet people escaping federal agents, you should also be arrested.
they won't be able to justify killing her, this is probably gonna cause a shitshow beyond what we have seen
She wasnt just a regular civvy though she was there as an observer to make sure ICE did their job properly
which they clearly won that review
Except she wasn't an observer.
She was actively preventing them from doing their job.
Ive not see any evidence of that so I wont comment
the double tap on the smuggler boat, this, bolton and other indictments, things are looking rough eh
all I saw was the aftermath where they wouldnt even let someone check her pulse
I haven't checked their laws, but on MS NOW, one of the anchors is saying that ICE agents don't have the authority to stop and inspect cars. That belongs to the local police only.
Not sure if that's true, but π€·ββοΈ
Also not sure that even matters in Donny's world.
theres just no way in the world they will make intent to murder the officer stick to what's on video
which is the only justification for shooting at her
they are just fucking cowboys
Most probably, he won't be prosecuted. There's some kind of immunity for officers in shootings.
It takes one heck of a prosecutor and administrative support to put the screws on them.
at this rate, I think they have more to fear from an angry mob
From what I can see, she pulled out intentionally in front of an ice vehicle to block its path.
if they had sense they would investigate it properly and lay responsibility, but if they just pretend shit like this is justified, it's gonna make a mess
They weren't trying to inspect it, I think, but get her out of the car and move it out of the way themselves.
Yeah, they don't have the authority to do that, according to the anchor - to make her get out of the car.
Ive seen ICE guys tackle a Marine in civvys cuz he wasnt white enough so I dunno how much I can trust em at this point
they didnt even identify themselves just started questioning him
then just before tackling him they pulled the badge
like rip tackle that fast
fuck due process right
Guess we'll see. I'm sure they can arrest her for interfering with a federal warrant.
I just think its silly to expect a civvy to act like robot and just obey orders straight up, especially in a tense situation. ICE are...
well should be trained for this type of thing, not to overreact
Ive seen em just hammer on peoples windows and smash em just because they wanted ICE to identify themselves
sorry but a masked guy coming up without identifying themselves isnt a federal agent at that point
do you still believe in the rule of law π€£ its wild west
a bit of velcro saying police isnt federal identification
cowboy and indians, you have s@#t we want you either give it to us or we kill u π
Im gonna walk around the US in a paintball outfit pulling over cars
Pretty much. Under any other dept. of justice, they'd be pulled up and suspended. But that's not the donny world.
dont get me wrong Im all for being strong on criminals, especially federal crimes but I believe in smart police work not whatever this cowboy hotdog dogshit is
ever since I saw that US cop shoot that dog Ive never been a fan of how law enforcement is done over there. Just jump over someones fence, shoot their dog and they wernt even in the right place, criminal ran off in the other direction
that poor owner, holding the dog crying telling the cop the dog wouldnt have hurt him
US cop shoot dog? Do you mean the HS secretary Christy Noam shooting her dog? Or another dog?
too quick to the trigger not quick enough to the brains
or how about that cop who was in a high speed car chase and unloaded 2 clips driving single handed and shooting out his front windscreen
that was only acouple of years back
seriously, if a cop did that here...
why is the world on fire? can't we just get along
Not the world, really. Just about 10-12 out of 195 countries.
I wonder if we can solve the problem by reducing their frame rates enough.
if we have enough AI we dont need humans anymore
therefore we can get rid of everyone who doesnt get along
am I doing the facism right?
I'll ask an AI to evaluate you.
you will ask andarians to evaluate you to windus OS
such a thing doesn't exist. take the red pill.
yeah linux is more superior than windows
SteamOS mustardface
That would be illegal.
its illegal for federal agents to do it without identifying themselves too π
but the US doesnt care for any laws anymore
teflon extends to the whole federal government as long as Don is the Godfather
Having a velcro thing saying "police" or "ice" is enough to initially identify you as somebody that should be listened to. If you want to ask for identification after you've been pulled over and gotten out of the vehicle or, at least, opened your window, then sure.
good luck with that
glad I'll never have to deal with it
CES the keynote coverage from gaming nexus so top notch
reminds me of that scene in Elysium where the robot cop breaks his arm for cracking a joke, mind you he was a parole so maybe he had it coming
There is no blanket federal law requiring them to wear visible uniforms, display badges at all times, or unmask
yes but if they wish to conduct law enforcement duties they have to identify themselves. What youre talking about is for undercover operatives
undercover mons calamary operatives
for instance if an undercover cop tackles you and arrests you without identifying themselves first, that is not a lawful arrest
if they wish to command you around with any authority they have to first prove they have said authority
And how do they do that if you're trying to escape in a vehicle, as in the Minnesota escapades?
well in her case Im entirely not sure, in the other 4 or 5 cases Ive seen of ICE going too far... they could have just identified themselves first before resorting to violent behaviour
call me crazy but if an armed paramilitary guy knocked on my window I might panic, epescially if Im getting conflicting orders from both sides of the car
Problem is, they can't stop vehicles unless they are sure the occupant of the vehicle has a non-immigrant/illegal immigrant status.
So, unless they KNEW that she was an illegal (had paperwork proving so) or had a warrant, stopping that vehicle was a no-no.
well actually lets be real, he tried to forcefully remove her from the car for... Im not sure what the charge would have been
But again, no one's getting prosecuted, so.....
impeding a federal vehicle that was stuck in snow or something
I think ideally, such operations are conducted with other federal agencies on-site, like the FBI, or local law enforcement, for precisely such situations.
Anyway, it's great material for UE games.
so he popped three shots into her car in self defense rather than moving out the way and putting out a BOLO
apparently the cop on her other side was telling her to keep moving along
who has rank, the guy with the bigger velcro?
The kangaroo.
Call me crazy but these guys are federal cops, they should know how to operate under these conditions more than any civvy. What is a priority for their department or maybe not to freak out if you stand on the road where cars might drive
just seems like its always self defense when a cop pops off over there
I doubt they are trained to do much other than drag people into their vehicles to deport them.
Remember that several of them have been recruited 'recently'.
just think about that for a moment though, lets all of us consider what it would take for each of us to fire a loaded weapon at someone 3 times
for me it would take a hell of a big thing, thats a huge deal knowing you could take someones life by shooting even once
but to do it in the name of protecting the public safety without even considering where those bullets might end up after... yeah kick em off the force
The federal vehicle definitely wasn't stuck for any reason other than her car.
He did actually move out of the way before shooting her.
so youre telling me wasnt going to die
Nope.
I totally agree with you on this case that he didn't need to shoot her.
But, shooting practise, sir.
She did almost run him over, but he moved out of the way and then unloaded 3 rounds into her face.
so he def shot to kill then not to disable the vehicle
On a cool note, I reduced my monthly debt by a bigly amount. π πͺ
Shooting to disable the vehicle is quite ridiculous at that point.
well his excuse seems largely to protect the public from this crazy lady
Nice one!
If that's his excuse....
if she was free and clear maybe he coulda just let her go, hunt her down later
dont get me wrong Im not defending her, I just dont like bullies especially the ones with badges
theres definitely more behind it all, theres clearly tensions in the US I'll never entirely understand not having lived there
Active interference (e.g., blocking access to another occupant or resisting) β could constitute obstruction of federal officers under 18 U.S.C. Β§ 111 (a criminal offense), providing probable cause for arrest and removal.
Seems they do have the right.
yeah no doubts but did they really need to risk another George Floyd moment over it?
ICE regulations (8 C.F.R. Β§ 287.8) allow reasonable force if someone poses a threat or impedes duties.
Oh fuck no.
That guy has probably done more to harm ICE than Trump.
that sort of risk assessement and situational awareness is just as important to policing as knowing the law
I think there was a miscommunication between the officers on the scene too, one seemed to want to get in her car and arrest her the other wanted her out of the way
yeah I cant tell whats going on, footage is cut from the start
white car was the one apparently stuck in the snow
After finance work, time to eat π .
Wait.... there was a FIFTH Die Hard movie? π
in 2013. Gosh, I didn't know! Time to watch it! π₯
ponkkis so good that image
