Truth,

"We attacked them twice within 7 months"

Why did we?

"If they stop what will prevent America and Israel from attacking them again in 6 months?"

Why would they?

On what grounds would the US attack if Iran stayed on their side of the line?

Clown,

"What are they supposed to be learning?"

1. Ultimately, it's not their water way to control.

2. Iran and their allies must stop firing missiles.

I would think that's about it.

You think it's any more complicated than that?

Iran is not going to win.

Trump will not stop until they are out of the Straight and Iran stops firing missiles.

That is my prediction.

Iran will never learn.

We'll have to obliterate them before they cry uncle.

Clown,

I'm not reading the link.

You explain it.

Summarize is fine.

Clown,

You have to answer my question or that makes you just a troll.

And don't deflect.

Clown,

"Kyle Rittenhouse and George Zimmerman, heroes to MAGAts from coast to coast."

Please explain.

How do you think anyone sees them as heroes?

Dan,

"Remember when you said the same about Kyle Rittenhouse?"

Did he not end up in court, charged with homicide and having to defend his actions?

You still think bringing guns to a protest is a great idea?

Doc,

This AI technology has been a long time coming.

In all seriousness, this was predicted with HAL.

I think we've always realized AI could escape man's control.

Trivia...Microsoft has an inside nerd joke of sorts naming a low level part of Windows, Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL).

It started with Windows NT 3.1 and is still part of Windows.

This could be one of the scarier things I've read about AI...if this is actually true.

Eff,

You're seeing what you want to see.

I'm using common sense.

Zed,

A protest is not a good place to bring a gun. If it is so bad you might need one, then stay home.

Even cops leave theirs behind when entering prisons.

It could be grabbed from them.

The very nature of a protest and one where the anger is as high as the one he attended, bringing a gun is a bad idea unless you are extremely responsible.

He got involved to the point he was rolling on the ground. That showed me he didn't take carrying a gun serious enough.

Redial,

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.

It wasn't very prudent to bring a gun to a protest.

I would like to ask him what was his reason for bringing it.

What kind of scenero did he think he might use it?

I was juror on a gang shoutout once. One thing I learned about guns was your average person would likely not do well because they lack the instinct and training to use it and lack the instinct to pull the trigger quick enough. I learned gang members don't carry guns exercising their 2nd amendment right. They don't care about that. They carry guns for defense.

If liberals would think about it, guns have limited uses.

What on earth did he bring a gun to a protest for?

Did he imagine getting into a shoot-out like in the movies?

Did he imagine a cop would draw on him and he had to defend himself?

It may very well have been legal for him to be armed.

Here is my opinion why he brought a gun with him.

He was just a fool.

Snoofy,

"You can't take a stand."

Sure I do.

I'm taking a stand when I say you're a kook.

But not just you. There plenty others on this site.

Snoofy,

You're a kook.

Eff,

"Mr. Pretti never showed his gun."

From what I have read, Pretti had the gun on his person, but he never displayed it.

During the struggle on the street, an agent discovered the gun in his waistband or holster and removed it while others were yelling, "gun."

My personal suspicion is that the agents were not communicating clearly and that whoever fired was not aware the gun had already been removed by an agent.

Pretti had also behaved aggressively during an earlier encounter with federal agents. Bringing a gun into a volatile confrontation certainly increased the potential for confusion. Also, they had not been aware he had a gun so it came as a surprise and their training kicked in.

Does that excuse the shooting or establish that it was justified?

No.

It is just an attempt to understand what the agents may have perceived and how the situation went so badly wrong.

Db,

"Which you seem to revel in"

I have a valid point and you know it, so you accuse of being happy about it.

Really....that's just ugly and pathetic.

Sent,

"Even most of the pro-Trump MAGAs are starting to realize how having a government organization that murders with impunity could be detrimental to them"

I believe protestors too, are learning something.

Being too assertive during a protest and acting in ways that are not typical and especially bringing a gun, can get you killed just because ICE is not sure of your intentions and believe they might be at risk.

Not everything is totally ICE's fault.

Sometimes people do things that might contribute to a bad outcome.

Db,

If you live long enough.

Snoofy,

"You understand criminal only happens when there's a crime?"

Going over borders without being there legally is a crime.

A crime is unlawful activity.

AI has been created in man's image.

It will be the best and worse of us.

Snoofy,

"These millions of illegal immigrants aren't criminals."

You probably think men can have babies too.

Strange times we're living in.

Red,

First off, anything that starts with someone elses name isn't my concern. I dont think you quite grasp how I read information but avoid commentary and political speeches and most videos. I'm old school and prefer reading.

It is pure coincidence if my words are similar to anyone elses.
