  • Hundreds TO thousands. And crazy people.

    Hell, look at the Arlington Cemetery worker that is scared to press charges because of the threats of crazy people. You tell people that REAL LIFE (descendants of) NAZI'S exist down the street and who the fuck knows what they'll do. People can be monstrous, especially so when you give them a reason to despise/fear/be enraged at someone else.

  • Mate, you be huffing so much of that Fox News, you done lost the plot. Your a conservative think-tanks favorite sort of stupid - easily swayed by fear and rage, moldable to be whatever zealot they need, and able to parrot a talking point without actually knowing what your talking about. Your a sheep brother. Baa! Lol

  • Remember, nows not the time to talk about gun rights. Thoughts and prayers....unless this was a foreign minority, in which case we need to be enraged and angry about how immigrants are ruining this country. You know the ol' song and dance.

  • Yeah, sorta.

    • 311 is a shit show. You have to pretty much get involved with your local government officials to get literally anything done, otherwise you can just live with your pothole.
    • City officials have had a hard on for a minor league baseball stadium for fucking YEARS. They asked Richmond citizens for their vote on it, and every single time people said fuck no. It's $110 million that could have been used to repair crumbling infrastructure, provide support programs, add additional affordable housing, repair our busted streets....noooo, why do that when we can go to a fucking minor league baseball game. Good idea Stoney. It's getting built by 2026. That'll for sure bring in money Stoney. Wonder what sort of kick back he's getting as he's only been pushing it for like 5 years.
    • City officials also hard a hard on for a casino to bring in additional "needed money" that they planned to throw in absolutely terrible locations. No one wanted it. I think we had to vote it down like half a dozen times. Petersburg, a crumbling ruin struggling town is now voting to add it. Just what it needs.
    • Look up the history of Jackson Ward.
    • Shcokoe Bottome still has buildings were destroyed in the flood back 30 years ago that have yet to be revitalized (but a fucking stadium is fine, right?)

    Thats just off the top of my head. Love it here though. Just....lots of annoyances.

  • ...and how do you enforce it? No one is going to want to give up the land that they worked for and purchased themselves, or that they developed. Give up your rights or we imprison or kill you?

    And who controls this enforcing agency? The single party government? Because you can't have multiple parties.....how do you prevent the government from taking advantage of their position? Like, I don't think communism is this magical fix-all that you think it is.

  • Communism inevitably will always lead to dictatorship and totalitarianism.

    In order to become a communist state, you have to: 1.) Get a bit army or group of people to enforce the upcoming rules. 2.) Force people to get rid of private ownership or threaten them to give it up. This will piss a lot of people off. 3.) Get rid of them if they don't. This will piss a lot of people off. 4.) Realize that you've pissed a lot of people off, and that your the only power in the land, you definitely don't want to give this up. 5.) Enact a single party system.....oh, fuck....

    Communism doesn't work on a large-scale, and it's not sustainable. By it's very nature it's extremely prone to abuse, and fundamentally impossible to install any sort of checks and balances on a single party-system. Look how bad it is with a two-party system in the US.

  • As an American, my Brit friend took me to Gregg's. Told me that if I want to try actual British food, that's about par for the course. Those sausage rolls are cheap af, but taste pretty damn good. I will never understand your infatuation with flavorless Heinze beans though.
