  • Here is the flaw in your logic: If you encourage corrupt people to run for office you can't guarantee that the people who run will actually care about their constituent's concerns. Allowing corruption just leads to more corruption and everyone gets hurt in the process.

  • If they don't prorate a refund then they're stealing from you. Obviously if this is a trial they can cancel immediately if you haven't paid but otherwise it's theft.

  • This type of program has existed for forever in the military. Some other careers that skip basic and get promoted to high ranks on joining are specialized doctors and lawyers. The military needs those types of specialists and they have to compete with the civilian compensation packages to attract people. Colonel pay is really high. Private First class, not so much.

  • Being ordered to an area isn’t illegal. Being ordered to shoot civilians is. Learn the distinction, clown. I’m not a traitor nor do i support the orange idiot.

  • Both democrats according to other reporting. The shooter was posing as a police officer and also shot the spouses of the politicians.

  • Then he needs to charge more if he can't afford to pay his employees more.

  • Septic shock is different but the main thing that causes blood problems in sepsis which leads to shock is the coagulation of your blood.

  • This is the right answer. Shock is one of the things you learn about in battlefield medicine because it happens very often in conflicts.

  • I don’t understand posting verifiable lies and then upvoting them.

    I don't know what op posted or if the upvotes are organic but don't forget that a lot of trolls use alt accounts to self upvote.

  • That and the whole there being three other books worth of material that the series just noped the fuck out of because amazon didn't want to keep making the series. They did the same thing with The Wheel of Time.

  • Hey at least Mel Brooks won't have to wear makeup to play Yogurt. Dude is 98.

  • What is your mood today on the mood chart?

  • Yeah, italian americans bastardized a bunch of italian words. I have to check my pronunciation in colombia when i talk to the italian shopkeeper near me because he has one way of saying the word. I have another. and the colombians have a third. It can be confusing at times.

  • I was going to say one of them should have been 50 times removed but Randall got me in the alt text:

    Grandma says that because of differences in primate and feline lifespans, the cat is actually my 17,000,000th cousin 14,000,000 times removed.

  • They haven’t been given illegal orders yet. And i’ve already said that they should disobey illegal orders. All soldiers are given classes on lawful orders and which orders should and shouldn’t be obeyed. If they “rise up” as you say they will just be courtmartialed and discharged at best or executed at worst.

    This is the real world not some fantasy that some of you seem to be living in. I was a soldier and i was deployed to a war i didn’t agree with. I understand what these soldiers are feeling.

  • I’m not confused. A soldier has to walk a fine line on what they can legally do. I won’t advocate for soldiers to do illegal things. I will advocate for soldiers to disobey illegal orders and to be a shitbag for any work details they think are undemocratic. Until we’re in a full blown civil war it’s better to lie low than get kicked out of the service from spying.

  • Well that would be treason which i’m not advocating for.

    Just being slow and fat fingering things are not traitorous things.

    Treason is punishable by the death penalty so keep that in mind. Especially with who is in charge currently.

  • Or you can stay in the service and be a sabot in the wheels. Being a shitty soldier will do more to hurt the fascist service than leaving it. Trust me, i was a shitty soldier.
