Not so bad at genocide either

The hard “c” sound as you see in America is always a ‘k’ auf deutsch.

i didn’t mean to misrepresent myself. i speak german, but not natively. it is a fantastic language for terrifying phrases like “just chillin, how you?” or “weapons of mass destruction”. not doing it now because fuck the gimmick.

can’t disagree but it’s literally a stone age problem. the same logic has led to nuclear proliferation and doctrines of mutual assured destruction. that sounds much more terrifying in german but I can’t find the correct translation atm. not to mention capitalism and the proliferation of killing machines for profit.

in short, i think taking the bullets out of your stupid little gun is the right way to go. try it. you won’t die.

and that’s what your 2A right earns you. people with even less self-awareness or judgment than me are just walking around everywhere you go with guns in their pockets.

i’m a grownass middleaged dude who’s never shot anyone, just been very cautious and seen a lot of weird shit while enduring some mental health shit throughout. and i have a lifelong exposure to guns. I think I’ve been quite safe. if you don’t think i’m safe, then you absolutely should not be encouraging more firearm access.

i’m just not interested in killing anybody. i’m well-versed in crazy experiences, from inner city New Orleans to Sonora Desert meth heads or the average lunatic in Louisville. I am better off for not being prepared with a loaded gun many many times, because I definitely would have shot many different people.

yeah as a profligate alcoholic and terminally depressed person, i’m not hanging out with loaded guns. i’ve been trained to use them, been familiar with them for decades. also i’m just clumsy. i don’t have a military background, I know i can hit a target at a couple hundred yards with an M4, but that ancient Old Reliable .38 with no safety scares me.

i appreciate the detailed perspective. seems like the consensus is it’s very location-sensitive whether to call the cops on a given situation. i don’t know any of the emergency people around here. I know the County Sheriff is a politically active goofo who loves to be on TV wearing a giant hat. but i’m in the boundary of one small city or another.

edit: not sure why i went there, but german cops are less bad than US cops. maybe

yeah not relevant, but I ran into trouble with the transit cops in Berlin or Munich in the late hours once. I forget. I hadn’t bought a ticket, but I just got on the train. it took at least three cops to sternly issue me a ticket.

there are police in the US who would respond in this way. they’re actually prevalent. we just have some way fucked up laws and precedents and a lot of dickheads.

yeah the noise is not enough. it’s literally not a crime in this area and therefore not the interest of police.

personally i’m inured to the idea of people screaming at each other. don’t like it, don’t care. I don’t think it really hurts anybody outside of the screaming people. is that a crime in some places?

How could an AI know you shouldn’t combine PB with J? unless the J is homemade preserves. Did anyone tell the AI about homemade fucking preserves? Garbage in, garbage out. Ya’ll!
