Nah, I'll stick to harsh language, bullets have gotten stupidly expensive with this whole pandemic thing.
Funny story about that, a big part of the reason that ammo is hard to find and expensive right now is that we had a huge influx of new gun owners this last year, lots of minorities and women, and that a big driver of that has been the feeling that things are out of control, that the state will not protect you, which is not new but is much more obvious than it has been in recent years. I can see it in the orientation classes for new members at my gun club, lots of danger hair and non-traditional demographics, and before you even think to say it, they get a warm welcome from the old fat white guy contingent, who are just thrilled to see the sport get passed on to a new generation.

Well if bullets are expensive then magic might do the trick
Black woman magic? remarkably impressive young lady

2 years ago, I pretty much knew nothing about American politics.
Now I am full of it.
I have the same policy towards both Americans and non-Americans when it comes to commenting on American politics: know what you're talking about. I will say that it's more annoying when people who don't live here try to lecture me about the situation on the ground though, I have a very low tolerance for the "well I read this article about it so I know better than you who actually live there" attitude, not that I ever get that from you.
1. I'm interested in discussions rather than mass debating.
2. I am not a hyperpartisan.
3 My focus is on unearthing the Truth.
4. My modus operandi is to wait for the facts to come in before I develop a hard opinion.
5. I have a man crush on you and Brictoria, so I will always defer to your way of thinking.
Why *would* you have a problem with me?

We might send you to Russia or China, where you belong.
They can "handle" you "appropriately".

Oops.
My comment about "stupid gun laws in America" must have rankled you.
You will live.
Prehaps "defunding the police" might ease peoples fears so they don't feel a need to buy weapons to protect themselves. <irony>

He will have to be less ambiguous if he isn't.

Now I am full of it.
I actually prefer American politics to Australian politics, these days.
I must have been an American in a former life.
Meh, As you said, it ain't against the rulz, so I will continue a yappin, y'all'.
I confess it really caught me off guard to see foreign nationals so vested in our politics. We Americans (ordinary citizens) generally don’t invest ourselves that deeply in anyone else’s politics. After all, each country has the right to govern itself in accordance with its own unique history, culture and preferences. While I accept outsiders will have opinions, and that sometimes a third party perspective is useful, the idea that a third party might attempt to influence events and opinions in someone else’s country is appalling to me. The difference can be a fine line, but I would hope outsiders will be wary of it.
There are also times when outsiders try to get inside the heads of Americans and, well, unless someone has lived here I really don’t see how they can believe they possibly can.

The New York Post reports four groups are behind a rally planned for Wednesday to boot Rittenhouse, 18, who revealed that he was an online student at the Tempe school and would like to live a quiet life on campus.
“KILLER OFF CAMPUS,” reads the flyer, calling for the university to “protect students from a violent, bloodthirsty murderer.”
A list of four demands includes getting the 18-year-old cleared killer withdrawn from ASU, as well as for the school to “release a statement against white supremacy and racist murderer Kyle Rittenhouse."

This website is an American one and is highly Amerian-centric.
If I could find an Australian autistic website that works for me, I'd probably be there more than here.
It is rarely my intention to try and influence anyone, especially hyperpartisans.
"You can take a horse to water, but you can't make it drink", sort of thing.
I have given up trying. It is pointless to put in the hard yakka research and reasoning.
If people don't want to listen, there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Q: How many psychiatrists does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: One, but the lightbulb has got to want to change.
Amerians aren't aliens.
It *is* possible to understand them.
They follower psychological patterns because they are humans.
I have spent a long time trying to explain why Nazi Germany involved itself in human atrocities, in terms of the human psyche.
Some will never get it even though you have modern examples of inhumanity via the Chinese persecution of the Tibetans and the Uyghurs, etc, as an example.
Some people just like to hate other tribes.
What can you do?
