20:08 immibis; DaemonFC: either way the state is making you pay something. The state is who said you had to live outside of walking distance of the gun store, by the way.

20:08 immibis; paying for a phone call to the state police is unconstitutional too

20:09 immibis; does the government guarantee everyone a cellphone with unlimited local calling and a free place to charge it?

20:09 DaemonFC; <immibis> does the government guarantee everyone a cellphone with unlimited local calling and a free place to charge it?

20:09 DaemonFC; Black people

20:10 DaemonFC; (Obamaphones, which were expanded under the COVID "emergency".)

20:10 immibis; DaemonFC: everyone, or else it's unconstitutional. And do they really come with free charging?

20:11 kingoffrance; there was/is a maxim or precedent noone can be charged/taxed for a basic right (ignoring whether that means anything or where/how it is applied), but "owning a firearm" is a different right than "right to purchase"

20:12 kingoffrance; that is just to say...i wouldnt expect consistency

20:12 DaemonFC; <immibis> DaemonFC: everyone, or else it's unconstitutional. And do they really come with free charging?

20:12 DaemonFC; Yeah, while they're washing their ass in the bathroom at McDonalds, they can charge their phone.

20:40 immibis; DaemonFC: Does the government provide free transportation to McDonald's?

20:40 immibis; kingoffrance: the government charges most people for most things, it's silly to make this one different

20:41 immibis; in fact, if paying $10 to have a firearm is unconstitutional, paying TAX on the firearm is unconstitutional

20:41 immibis; so is paying tax on the fuel you use to travel to get the firearm. Even if the fuel is a free market thing and therefore allowed - the tax isn't.

19:56 activelow; Zelensky subverted Northstream project, to keep control over energy supplies into EU with pipelines he controls, with a surplus margin asked for routing gas, illegally diverting gas supplies, etc; that's fact

19:57 activelow; Ukraine economy issues, demands for Visa-free travel into EU; that's a fact too

19:57 Snap[$]; thats the price of freedom

19:58 activelow; Ukraine denied almost all "humanitarian corridors", into Russia/WhiteRussia

19:58 psydroid2; that's called being petty

19:58 activelow; little later, media spectacle, burning buildings... borders opened.

19:58 psydroid2; and putting your own people at risk

19:59 psydroid2; not to mention foreigners who are your guests

19:59 psydroid2; and who have nothing to do with your war

8 PM, March 17

20:00 activelow; what Russian military did, was securing military facilities, shutting down air-ports, and ensure pipelines remained operational

20:00 activelow; Russia had no incentive i could think of, to ignite.

20:03 activelow; it was Poland/Ukraine who insisted Northstream2 was stopped, so they could continue burning gas cheaply, and re-sell into EU/Germany with a surplus-margin

20:03 Snap[$]; the russian only demolish civilian buildings because the aren't in up to standers with russian legislation

20:04 Snap[$]; energetic rating c

20:04 activelow; it's not at least verified which buildings, when, and how they were destroyed

20:04 psydroid2; if that's all your economy is based on, you have bigger problems on your hands

20:04 activelow; some images presented recently, weren't taken a few days ago, those were images from year 2014

20:05 activelow; anyway, Ukraine wanted to join EU, yet then had to pay EU prices for Oil/Gas, without the friendship discount from Russia

20:06 activelow; furthermore, Ukraine could not have associated with EU, as long as they had access to Crimea fleet with nuclear carriers, since this violated Budapest Memorandum

20:07 activelow; then, USA fiddled into, offering to "provide lethal aid to Ukraine" with the aim to "un-balance Russia"

20:07 activelow; ballistic missiles placed at the borders of the russian federation

20:09 activelow; all this, of cause, is based upon the assumption at least some credible reporting existed anywhere

20:10 immibis; activelow: who cares - russia invaded ukraine, which is bad, end of story
