Same. I got a permaban on 9/12 with zero explanation as to why.

Bring it back? I wasn’t aware that it left.

I would say that’s pretty spot on actually.

No. And I’ll explain— I personally know a few good cops that have made reports against cops for breaking their oath. Two of which were excessive use of force. Do you know where those reports went? Straight to the trash because the “bad cop” knew more of the higher ups than the good cop that reported them. So what is the good cop supposed to do then? It takes way more than just one or two good cops reporting the bad ones. The people above them have to take the reports seriously. And I think that’s where the good cop credibility gets tossed out the window.

What are your honest thoughts on this? Id love for this to be an actual conversation and not a pissing argument of going back and forth.

So a good cop should quit instead of turning in the bad cops? Which would effectively just be ignoring the problem and solve nothing.

Likewise. It’s kind of why I’m here. I got very irate with someone on Reddit a few days ago. Something I had not done in a very long time. But I said some things that I should not have that got me a permaban from Reddit. So here I am with a fresh mind, trying to be a better person.

Ok first I wanna commend you for actually trying to understand. Even if pretending. It means a lot. To answer your list.

Climate change- no opinion. It changes daily. Or I’m just too dumb to understand it.

Trans ppl- I am a Christian so naturally I don’t agree with it. BUT, I am not like the crazed lunatic Christians that will belittle them, berate them and talk down upon them. Or tell them they are a “perversion of Gods creation” or an abomination. They’re still human. I am human also. Who am I to judge?

God- I am a Christian. More specifically a Southern Baptist Christian. Like I said previously though, I like to think not like some of the crazed lunatic Christians out there. From an early age I was taught to love all walks of life. My church has a saying. Be it cliche or whatever. But the saying is this— “Hate the sin. Love the sinner.”

Guns- Absolutely dangerous. I’m Pro-2A. There’s some unhinged ppl out there that just shouldn’t own firearms. Mental health evaluation and gun safety courses should be mandatory before being able to purchasing any firearm.

Immigration- 1000% ok. But only when done through the proper and legal channels. My family immigrated to the US many years ago from Ireland so I cannot get on board with illegal immigration.

Women- Human, obviously. None of us would be here without them.

State funded healthcare- not educated enough on this matter to have an opinion.

Public transport- could work in larger cities/metro areas. But what about rural areas? How well would that work? Genuinely asking.

Bikes(?)- motor or pedal? I don’t understand this one.

I got downvoted because I’m a big bag of contradictions. I’m neither “this” or “that” I hold beliefs and views from all sides. So it’s easier for folks to just downvote and belittle than try to understand.

That’s a fair assessment.

Completely agree. I’m a center aisle guy myself. Hell, I don’t even wanna be center. I don’t even wanna be in the same room 😂

None. There is zero definitive evidence of which side of the aisle he is on. The right wants him to be left and the left wants him to be right. Some on the right want justice, some want vengeance. Most on the left are celebrating either way, some didn’t agree with Kirk but didn’t believe he should die for his views.

Then you have the people in the center of the aisle that just want to be left alone and don’t care. Both the left and right hates these people.

I don’t like either of these fuckwads but this is rich (no pun intended) that has literally made money on the back of the Parkland tragedy. No one even knew who the hell David Hogg was until the Parkland shooting. And boy did he capitalize on that.
