Some people deserve bad things to happen to them no matter how unethical it is to wish for, or do. Unethical maybe, but justified entirely. Our society is up against the clock on ecological and social issues and being ethical in the current system will not save it.

Politicians hide themselves away, they only started the war.

Great right from coin miners to the "AI" fad. Tons of carbon shot into the sky and for what? A more unequal society on both counts.

Planes have so much redundency that theres a lot that's uncritical, until suddenly it is critical.

Radio works outside the city too, and most of the time I see people tossing a HF mobile rig in there. A solid one of those can run 100w off a car battery and if you can get a random wire antenna over a 35-40 foot high branch you'd probably be able to cover the country on the lower bands so long as the ionosphere isn't too irregular. You can even get car appropriate sized antennas for the higher frequency, shorter range bands.

I know amateur radio operators who have emergency equipment stashed in containers designed to keep the radiation out so they have a backup in case literally everything else they have goes down.

Depends on what part of the planet you're talking about. America and Europe sure, but any sovereign nation with Lithium, well watch out, freedoms coming. Im just glad Trump was too dumb to make his Latin American coup work.

The sign of a man who commented on a chain without reading shit, and got caught. Just slinging some insults, and not even good ones. If I were you, other peoples apples would be the last thing im concerning myself with.

Did I not say if it becomes a distraction Id deal with it as a parent? Im aware of what a teacher does.

Pistol would be a tricky choice too, easier to conceal, and more than most pistols are also semi automatic. Bolt action small caliber would be a decent start I'd say.

Wouldn't make a mite of difference to me unless they've already prooven they're not responsible enough for a smart phone. Can't expect them to learn to stay focused if you eliminate all possible distractions, your just setting them up to fail for once they get old enough to make and buy their own distractions.

Idk what kind of art classes you had at middle school but creative is not how I'd describe it. You got assignments. You draw this bird. Has to be a bird. Okay now were doing clay, you have to make a pot. Music time you have to learn this song. I feel so creative.

Imagine jamming cell signal then an emergency happens. Oh the liability payout would be massive. And they say schools are underfunded now.

If I had a kid I'd straight up tell them do not listen to anyone who tells you you cant keep your phone on you, get in trouble if you must and I'll take care of the rest. If it becomes a distraction Ill deal with it as a parent, but the last thing I want is a kid caught in any kind of emergency without even a chance to phone help.

"But the teacher has a phone"

Okay I dont care. What if the teacher becomes the emergency? What if the teacher steps outside to see what that noise is and doesn't come back? Not leaving the safety of someone im responsible for in someone elses hands.

I can teach a kid anything they miss in elementary school. I can't re-alive the dead.

Same reason the Democrats keep saying shit like 'The country needs a Republican party'. Hell, same reason Bibi funded Hamas. When you find a Boogeyman that works, keep em in play.

QP 2024!

At this point I dont expect him to do anything that's not the political equivalent of a home run served up on a tee ball tee.

Its all true because to them the left is anyone that they dont like or agree with.
