My MIL let me know she put her pistol on top of her dresser and put a child proof handle on their door so that my two year old wouldn’t find it. They have two large gun safes but I guess a child proof door handle is safer.
I mean this was all very obvious I thought when the US government tried to stop 9/11 victims' families from suing the Saudi government right?
War hawks who bring up 9/11 never seem to have an answer for why we didn’t go to war with Saudi Arabia
Because those war hawks decided that Iran was the enemy, and it was extremely profitable to sell war shit to their cold war adversaries
Anybody seeing this kind of shit pop up locally? I had not heard of this site until I saw a link calling a murder victim a career criminal. Guess his race. If you don’t want to click it’s a wildly racist ‘conservative local news” site. Realnewsmichiana.com
theres been an enormous movement to leverage the vacuum of local news coverage into basically fake agitprop websites and twitter feeds theres just endless "news" twitter accounts that will share real news mixed with just deranged propaganda. seen lots of people on tmb even follow them and share them.
No, the issue with 9/11 families suing Saudi Arabia has more to do with protecting this country from being sued themselves. If American families sue Saudi Arabia then families from other countries will sue the US and when it’s all said and done the US would have a lot more lawsuits on their hands than any other countries.
I understand this was the given reason, but there is no way to discount that a big motivating factor was that the US doesn't want everyone to know explicitly how cozy it's relationship with Saudi Arabia was/is and helping basically fund terrorism.
I’d change my name to Joe Biden Lover if he tear gassed those chud protestors Saturday like Donnie did to the BLM
There’s no doubt that the US government does not want the public to know how close the US government is with terrorist and criminal cartel, that’s the reason why nothing further came out about the fast and furious situation. But I do believe that the primary reason that they don’t want citizens to sue Saudi Arabia or any other government is because of the risk that it exposes to the US and American companies.
There’s been a big movement in rural Texas where localized papers have gone away and been replaced by shit like this, where most of the content is farmed out to bad actors.
I think the given reason is the actual reason. Anybody who wants to know or actually cares beyond a 24 hours news cycle already knows our relationship with Saudi Arabia is morally bankrupt and mutually beneficial. It’s not a secret at all.
Weirdly (or it makes complete sense in today’s environment) half of them are explicitly designed to weave bat shit misinformation and propaganda into a seemingly “normal” “news site” as a means of co-opting unsuspecting people, and the other half are literally Macedonian teenagers with a laptop selling ads on the clicks and making 25k a month.
Can’t make any money on a war that would last about three weeks. “Ooh sorry, we’ve blockaded your two harbors and pulled out all our contractors that maintain your military and sent in a few marines to sit on top of your water sources sooooorry.” Saudi is the fucking worst. Other than maybe Turkey.
It just makes me laugh that when I use a fact checking site or AP, chuds will call those fake news and use these sites as their sources for stories. Me:
If you feel personally attacked by someone criticizing white supremacists and/or domestic terrorists maybe you should take a good hard look at yourself instead of attacking the person criticizing those things. Or at the very least if you’re reporting on someone reacting and getting defensive maybe report the story that way. Because that’s the real story.
Well, Trump is an expert on it as much like the rest of his life having tried, and failed, at it. Least successful white domestic terrorist ever.
