  • 1- The second paragraph could very well be interpreted as suggesting that hypothetical threat allegations being fraudulent and therefore suggest the opposite. This is downright bad faith from your part.

    2- I’m being mad at someone calling me a “liar” and trying to continue to force their own erroneous interpretation of my own words after I immediately clarified it for them and who keeps doubling down on it even after further explanation.

    3- You call it “vague” and yet still claim that I “absolutely did” mean what you think I meant, once again giving yourself a completely unwarranted benefit of the doubt on the matter against the now overwhelming evidence.

    4- Everyone else interpreted it correctly except you.

    5- Why the fuck would I even accuse Anon of making death threats when they were never mentioned in the article to begin with? It is much telling that this is where your mind went immediately.

    6- You came here looking for something to get angry about and thought you found it by diagonally reading through my comment and jumped to conclusions. Now that I called you out on it you decided that it had to be my fault instead and are going further down the rabbit hole of inventing all sorts of malicious intents from my part.

    7- You don’t have to admit it to me, only yourself. Because you will be blocked as soon as I have sent this. You will be the first one I’ve ever blocked on Lemmy over a comment argument too. I thought I had left this crap behind me when I dumped Reddit years ago but some seem to have followed. Which by the way also refutes your new unsubstantiated accusation of having made my original “deliberately vague” as if I had created some sort of trap to attract people like you. You can now rest assured that I don’t want people like you in my life.




  • I find if interesting that you’ve read that first paragraph and interpreted it as a suggestion of one thing, then read the paragraph immediately below it that could have suggested the opposite, and not only completely ignore that second paragraph, but also fail to realize that they were hypothetical situations to explain a point. Everyone understood that but you.

    Sure, force a specific interpretation of my words that you’ve specifically cherry picked to make you sound right so you can feel better about yourself. It ain’t gonna be true and we’ll both know that whether you like it or not, but judging from the fact that you just came back 4 days later for this, I don’t think this fact will bother you. This is a 4 day old thread and nobody is left here to witness the level of mental gymnastics you’re capable of anyway. Go ahead, treat yourself.





  • I mean if someone makes death threats to someone else they should absolutely have their guns taken away.

    The problem is that the system is open to abuse. Anyone who wants to get back at someone can make up allegations and have their guns taken away with no due process.

    But on the other hand if you make this process too difficult you can allow someone who is actually dangerous to keep their guns.





  • No misconduct?

    So it is perfectly fine for a cop to break someone’s window and then punch them repeatedly while they’re not fighting back, while also there being no emergency or threat, all of it over a minor traffic violation that was clearly a bullshit one to begin with?

    The guy wanted to continue the interaction when the cop’s supervisor was present because he had reasonable suspicion that the cop’s intentions were malicious, and his suspicions were immediately proven right.
