The woman's murder prompted a call for tougher anti-stalking measures.

Sorry for this woman life, however in many cases of stalking measures, it also punish people who just still in love with their ex-lover by sending tons of e-mail. So it's nothing about actual violence.

The difference is the liberals wouldn't be dumb enough to take on the military.

Why would they? Historically they never liked them anyway.

Haven't you heard? It's now the MAGA losers that nickel and dime our allies and push for their surrender putting our military at risk.

Those lucky enough to get out of China should think twice before ever going back. A former Chinese student of mine returned to China after living in Hokkaido for a number of years and has never been heard from since.

for crying out loud, it's a film. There's no need to take anything in it personally. and if you don't like it, no one is forcing you to see it. See a different film. Or take a walk. It's your life. Just don't complain about it here.

The police don't carry that big of guns

In their trunks they do.

usually and the suburbs are not low in crime because they have more police.

Not in the areas that vote heavily Democrat, take your pick, and even the ones that do have a heavy police presence in blue states, most cops are not allowed to fully engage the suspects or when they are arrested they don't serve any real jail time.

Putin's election was rigged because he was the only candidate who could win regardless of the voting outcome.

How so? There were other candidates, who each received 3-4% of the votes. And these candidates were much more popular than Navalny, who the West calls the "major opposition".

The other "candidates" couldn't explain why there were running. Not gave a lame excuse why they were running, but literally too scared to say why they were running.

A pistol can be fired by pulling back and releasing the hammer, no trigger action required ! ever hear of fanning a pistol? Baldwins excuse is lame, it is always the shooters responsibility to ensure that the weapon is handles safely. Baldwin is guilty as well.

Did Keanu Reaves check every round on every firearm he discharged on the sets of the John Wick movies? Same for Bruce Willis, Arnold, Stallone, etc., every action actor.

This is the responsibility of the head armourer who's supposed to be an expert. It was determined she brought live rounds onto the set from her home and that she didn't follow basic firearm safety procedures. The question now is if Baldwin as one of the producers, is criminally responsible for hiring her.

The same leftist students and activists who passionately protested against NATO's actions confronting the Soviet Union in the '80s are now journalists and government leader enthusiastically advocating for NATO to go to war against Russia.

Strange times....

It's called growing up and becoming an adult.

whether you are spy or not, the commies need not proves, they just open the mouth and say, you are spy, then that is, you are gone and disappear, and you will get your lawyer only in your dream. Although i am Mr.Nobody, i will never go to china again. Even though there is 0.01% i will be detained for no reasons, nobody can take the risk, there are 190++ over countries in the world, why you need to spend the holiday in that God forsaken place?

Depending on who was President at the time, the other side with their EV's, plant-based climate alarmists with all of their colorful garb wouldn't stand a chance either. Remember, a coin has two sides.

The difference is the liberals wouldn't be dumb enough to take on the military.

Right, but live in fear of the high crime that they created in their city and states and then flee to the areas where people carry the big guns to protect them, so yes.

The police don't carry that big of guns usually and the suburbs are not low in crime because they have more police.

"For only love can conquer hate." M. Gaye.

The paradox is that a positive response to that involves some self-reflection which those who can only hate will be mostly incapable of. But this is still essentially our only hope.

controlled by the elites

To many extremists 'elites' is synonymous with 'bad guys', but for them 'elites' does not include their idols like Putin, one of the richest and most powerful people in the world, nor does it include their US idol, leader of a major political party/cartel, a serial conman with personal and business connections to others among the globe's richest and most powerful. Putin is well known for controlling media in his large sphere of influence and beyond, just like his fellow authoritarians around the world.

Buy a Staub or Le Creuset rice pot

Cost ¥25,000 to ¥50,000. Electric rice cooker ¥8,000. They last many years. I have one that is more than 20 years old.

I use a pair of Jamie Oliver frying pans. Very nice for cooking with.

They wouldn’t be fighting. 

They fight all the time. 

Of course. A side who stock up on guns and live in fear

Yes, proud of it.

and a side who don’t.

Right, but live in fear of the high crime that they created in their city and states and then flee to the areas where people carry the big guns to protect them, so yes.

You should only use a teflon pan for eggs. Use stainless steel, carbon steel, or cast iron pans for everything else. That includes when cooking rice. Don't buy an electric rice cooker. They are overpriced and break every five or so years. Buy a Staub or Le Creuset rice pot. They are much better and last forever. You can give it to your grandchildren.

Isn't Guterres the same clown who flies around the world at someone else's expense while scaring children with proclamations of "global boiling"? If he had any credibility at all, at least he'd do his job online.

But I guess the world isn't in that much danger at all from boiling oceans. This week the threat is nukular annihilation so it's OK to fly.

Out of a population of 143 million, there are 114 million registered voters. Putin received 76 million votes or 66% of the registered voters.

Yes, but the turnout was 77%. And out of those who voted, he got 87%. Try comparing that to elections won by leaders of NATO countries.
