    Why does the US support Israel?

    Part of the problem with capitalism isn’t just wealth inequality but also a propensity for overworking. Yet if everyone got angry at working too hard then they might forget that they risk self-harming their own belief system of hard work when they endanger even harder working countries to become...

    A limit of gun rights is that if everyone tried to be the strongest version of themselves then anyone stronger and more relaxed than you is immediately helped by knowing their own passive baseline is stronger than your most energetic or angriest self. This happens consensually in sports...

    Owen Wilson’s ultimate attempt to escape a war-torn country away to peaceful Vietnam almost parodies an attempt to flee a gun zone to a socialist gun control zone. It almost symbolises how few people are willing to declare an emergency to escape to a local gun control zone ASAP: No Escape 2015...

    WHY MARIJUANA SHOULD BE LEGAL EVERYWHERE

    When alcohol was banned during the prohibition era in America gangsters like Al Capone were willing to sell illegal alcohol and kill rival gangs. The same is happening in Mexico with the likes of crack cocaine. Yet is there a risk that some illegal drugs are a bit exaggerated if nicotine and...

    It’s possible to exploit loopholes in gun control where theoretically a criminal could release several guard dogs against you only that someone walking with so many strong dogs would likely be visible to many pedestrians.

    I’d a dream last night in which a man on a horse approached from behind and hit a woman on the head with a golf club. So who knows whether gun ownership could appear less ridiculous if horses were frequently used by criminals. Although it might be easier to hear a horse galloping towards you...

    I’ll pre-empt the social rejection of my thread by musing that gun ownership is a cultural identity crisis relative to gun control! Perhaps America is caught between a rock and a hard place by having a love/hate relationship with both Europe and Asia such that Americans failed to unite their...

    Ukraine's Uniform

    Putin’s nuclear genocide threats isn’t always viewed as being anti-Russian as much as it is anti-Ukrainian due to the threat of nuclear retaliation and mutually assured destruction. Who knows if the Cold War ended because too many people didn’t even care about nuclear war to even bother...

    In unenforced gun control zones it can still be ethical to brace people for the risk of mass shooters even if you don’t have a gun to shoot back(!): Heart-rending Titanic Most Emotive Violin Scene

    Religious War

    A problem with stronger people is that they can accidentally appear more serious than they intended on an issue because they were serious about some other life issue or social problem. So some people from a larger country who agree with a political issue might actually do so passively without...

    Religious War

    Perhaps carrying swords might lead to a temptation to be more aggressive as a person to defend against weaker people knowing that they’d always be guaranteed to have a small chance of defeating you. Swordfighting might look like it’d take a long time to learn but axes and hatchets are so...

    “95% of American public schools drill students on lockdown procedures. Yet, there is almost no research affirming the value of these drills for preventing school shootings or protecting the school community when shootings do occur.” https://www.everytown.org/solutions/active-shooter-drills/...

    One way flawed self-defence policies can be aggravated is that mass shooters really aren’t meant to be even a tiny bit redeemed in “stress testing” a self-defence policy because the educational ability of evil people wouldn’t be needed if engineers were assigned to pre-empt such policy failures...

    Religious War

    One reason gun rights didn’t descend into much higher casualties is because an entire society can adapt passively by being very polite to everyone. So it’s still amazing why there aren’t way more sniping and mass shootings in a gun zone if it guns were only recently reintroduced in an original...

    Religious War

    One reason gun ownership can be redemptive is because there’s no limit to self-deprecation. For example Wonka was sincere in trying to be sarcastic but might have underestimated just how sarcastic they were about England to those who didn’t care too much about England! So the Catholic monks were...
