yes, there are more poor white people in pure numbers. that's a function of white people being the majority of the population.

people of colour are more likely to be poor than white people though, which is what I was referring to

.yes I knoq but you dont acknowledge the rest of the post.ya know about how weed is far from a poor people thing

it is racist because it has a disproportionately large effect on poor people, and people of colour are proportionately more likely to be poor

I feel there are just as many poor white people. plenty of non poor white people smoke weed. Drugs are far from just a poor people problem. At least when talking about weed. Which weed shouldnt be a problem cause hell even the most conservative of my co workers say theyd rather deal with a dorm full of stoned inmates rather than drunk inmates. Why? Cause stoned people arent known for starting fights for petty ass reasons.

Yup.

Imagine if every employer made you do a lie detector test asking if you had been drunk at all within the past 30 days and made hiring decisions based on that.

People would find that absolutely ridiculous.

.dont need a lie detector test. Blood test will do the trick.

If it helps, I made an Inhumans reference when my only exposure to em was from the Future Avengers anime, due to me watching that recently :P

Tv movies and video games is pretty much most of my marvel exposure. Ive read a deadpool graphic novel and the graphic novel the marvels. Thats about it.

I actually liked the deadpool and captain america video games. Deadpool is basically a b grade devil may cry and cap america a b grade arkham asylum. But I only paid like 20 bucks for each game

Unless you're a known pro player, any top rank on a competitive game with the w/l ratio highly skewed will be suspect, especially in fighters.

That's why i was proud of just being top 2000 im anything but a pro player. I put no effort into learning the finer nuances of thr mechanics, tier lists or anything like that. I used to often call myself the king of average joes. Put me against a casual and id walk all over them. Put me against someone who dedicated themself to learn the game and I would generally lose

Breaks are sort of a suggestion too. America is very anti-worker.

When I looked into labor law breaks where a legal requirement with exception to a few jobs. Fast food oddly being one. But most fast food places have it within their policy anyways. I guess why go through the trouble of "forcing" it as law when most places do it already anyways

Where I work there is no breaks and we work just a hair over 12 hours which generally is illegal. But it being considered a essential job it skirts by that law. And not essential in the way resturants are. Essential as in people would probably die if the job isn't being done.

I can understand GoT having it. Fantasy based on medevil era which was ripe with incest even among (probably especially among) royalty.

I have this comic panel saved to my phone somewhere though where a girl is trying to explain these sibling being in love with each othet to captain america and he simply cant seem to wrap his brain around it. Just uttering "but their siblings..."

Actually found it so here.

Holy shit lmao JACOB CURNOW? FUCK YES. I quoted him in my sig. Everything he says is golden.

Just to give an example of how awful this guy is:

He proudly advertises, at any given opportunity, that he is #1 ranked in Injustice.

On the PS4.

Aka the port released much later, has barely any players, and one he dedicates hours to just to remain #1.

He also rage quits any match he might lose, then denies it. He streams too, and when he is about to lose, he'll rage quit and cut the stream.

Dude is incredible.

To be honest I was highly proud of the fact I was in the top 2000 (of supposedly 20k active players) in SF 3 thirdstrike on the 360 and had beaten the number 1 ranked guy (granted only once out of 10 fights but it was the last time I fought him) all while 4 was in the height of its popularity.

Rage quitting I cant defend though. Closest to rage quitting ive done is giving up trying and letting them finish me. I'm at least honorable enough I'll let the match finish so they get the W on their record.

Since we're in the subject of roaches and sleeping. I was curious once to find out if roaches could bite, etc.

The answer I got was "yes"
The reason being since they're omnivorous and seeking food anywhere, if you're asleep they might be brave or desperate enough to give you a nibble in your sleep. It's like how wasps might try to take a bit of your flesh.

Now you'll really sleep soundly.

The bites only hurt just enough to be annoying.

It's straight up racist. This is another thing that needs to change under BLM. Along with legalizing weed in general.

BIPOC are definitely affected the most with both and the screening itself is useless.

Racist? Everyone gets tested at my job. And trust me plenty of white people smoke weed. I mean hippies where literally the stereotype for potheads for a long time.

I originally took the OP as meaning MCU wasnt cinema cause it wasnt exactly original content. They took pre existing stories threw their own spin on it and made a movie out of it.

Had a comic nerd explain to me thats why he gets annoyed at changes to the comic story. The comic itself is already a story board so they could cut their workload if they just stayed true to the source material.

The only time you should leave anything unlocked is if you live in an area with a 0% crime rate.

I can't see this being a success the way it's currently set up. What about customers who have their carts filled to the brim? Some of those shoppers are definitely not going to want to self-check out in that scenario. It would be very time consuming for many.

My walmart has two self check out linea that have the full coneyor belt like a regukar line. Honestly I can scan everything and bag it quicker than a cashier most of the time. Which to their defense they do it all day so fatigue affects their speed in sure

Ehh I'm not going to fully disagree, but at the same time I could see it being a 'we're busting this place up in protest anyway might as well'.

I definitely don't disagree some are in it to loot for loot's sake, there are always people that are going to take advantage of anything. But I think also no matter how good someone's intentions are, people are still people and they're going to sometimes give in to temptation.

Well yeah that was part of my class in criminal justice we where told majority of crime is crime of opportunity. Person saw a opportunity that appears low risk and they jump on it.

Like separate but semi related groups.

All going for the same goal, different factions. If that makes sense.

Not necessarily true. I'm sure plenty of rioters are doing it for the same reason as protesters but I'm betting most looters are just opportunist who see a chance to steal shit. Sure they might be mad about the same thing but they aint stealing a tv to prove a point they are stealing a tv cause they want the tv. They wanted to show they where pissed off then just join the rioters. Im sure some do both too.

You can't undonate what what else would you call boycotting them? The same thing with like Chick-fil-A 3 or 4 years ago

And chick-fil-A went on to be one of the most profitable fast food chains in a year. Cant remember if it was that year but ita safe to say it didnt hurt them. All these boycotts do is make the people who support the reasons you are boycotting just go there and support their business further out of spite.

This is really really really fucking stupid and anyone who has had even basic gun training knows this.

1. You can still die from a leg shot.
2. You can also be grazed from a leg shot and not be incapicated. Making you still dangerous if you're violent.
3. Shooting people in the leg is hard. Espescially if they are moving. It drastically increases your chances of missing and hitting innocent people.
If you are ever going to fire your gun, aim for the chest. Always aim for the chest. It's the safest thing to do and what anyone who uses firearms is taught.

This whole "Just shoot a limb" idealogy is based on Hollywood movies, not reality.

Edit:

Also cops shouldn't shoot protesters at all >_>

They should only shoot violent criminals when they have no other option

I thought that went without saying but apparently it doesn't

This. Hell in my qualification even headshots where less points than chest shots and for what I do lethal force is definitely authorized in the situation we need to use a gun. (Felons attempting an escape) we are taught too though to just let them flee if we even think there may be innocents anywhere near our line of fire.

But yeah in riots I figured OC spray, various gas munitions tazers and bean bag shotguns should be whats used and only when it gets violent.

And yet, there is no such thing as Soviet Hunters (from the family members that were in Gulags), but there are Nazi Hunters (from the family members that were in concentration camps). And before you say Gulags are not equal to CC, in there and in there people died by the hundreds.

Also, what you are essentially saying is... if you do not discriminate and kill every one, you are essentially not as bad as the one who does kill only one portion of nationals. GG.

That does bring up a interesting moral argument. Whats worse? One who kills indiscriminately or one who kills specific individuals he either fears, hates, finds inferior or some combination of the 3.
