I hope you can think about what you just said and realize how ridiculous you sound right now

Look at the site on mobile with no filters and it's immediately obvious that they are in the enshitification business, not news.

Missiles may not be fungible, but cash is. Supplying defensive weapons frees up budget for offensive weapons. No support for a genocidal regime is ethical.

My position is that I'm under no obligation to supply weapons to genocidal regimes, including defensive weapons, no matter how many of their children might suffer as a result. If we withdraw all aid then maybe they'd be forced to repurpose their offensive weapons to avoid the inevitable shit storm they've brought upon themselves. If you're so concerned about the children there are solutions that don't involve perpetuating the ability of the state to commit mass murder.

There's a reason war crimes are a thing. Most of humanity is on board with not targeting civilians, especially children; along with fair treatment of prisoners and not using indiscriminate weapons, because they hope their enemies will afford them the same mercy. When you violate those rules you place your entire country in grave danger. Israel knows this, but they act with impunity thinking they're untouchable. If it turns out that they can't defend themselves then it's their mistake and the results are natural and expected. It's tragic, but it's not unjustified.

Also, you don't get to win an argument on the internet by dismissing the person you're arguing with. Good afternoon.

I'm OK with children dying as long as they aren't my children. Is that what you want to hear? Israel doesn't get to murder thousands of children and then hide behind their own. Fuck off.

Keep fighting those strawmen, moron

If I make horrible decisions my kid will suffer the consequences. That's why I don't go around doing horrific crimes.

I just wanted to point out that the supreme court can effectively be ignored and provided an example. You're jumping to insane conclusions and getting really worked up about it. Chill the fuck out and go get yourself some counseling.

They should have considered the children before they went all in on bombing and starving other people's kids

2016 taught me the DNC isn't shy about putting a thumb on the scale.

She didn't lose as much as she wasn't picked.

Pretty worthless feature considering 99% of calls from unknown numbers are spoofed anyway

Depending on how often you feel the need to boil the crap out of it, it might end up having a greater environmental impact than just using paper filters.

I think that our society is going to drive certain people to do horrific things regardless of any regulations we could ever come up with, so imposing limitations on people's ability to defend themselves and their communities will only ever increase the body count. We need to fix the way we treat each other. We don't need to be worrying about what kind of handle is on a weapon.

When you live in a country where your vacation requests can be denied arbitrarily you might be tempted to just say 'fuck em' and let them know it's not optional the day before you skip work.

Thanks for proving my point. You don't give a shit what the supreme court has to say about it.

Nah, thoughts and prayers should be plenty. Maybe they wouldn't need an iron dome if they weren't constantly being insufferable belligerents.

Pretty whatever. Excuse me as I continue to doom scroll on my slave labor produced phone.

why is a background check for ammunition illegal?

I can't explain it as well as a district court judge, so here you go: https://casetext.com/case/rhode-v-bonta

Why don't you check your outrage a bit and try to address the actual point I was trying to make?
