Being an idiot is not against the law
It doesn't need to be, if you are an idiot then it is more than likely you will at some point break the law. All one has to do is wait. Btw, that very amusing argument that Clease proposes leads to the suggestion that criminal rehabilitation would never work. Just on principle.
 
He's generalizing, of course. The video ought to be funny. A lot of not that intelligent people know about their lack of intellect.

Many criminals aren't stupid, but the stupid ones are caught easier. The clever ones are bank managers, politicians, leaders of organized crime etc ... people in positions of power of whatever kind.

Criminal rehab fails rather often indeed. It depends on the person. Some people change to the better and become an acceptable person. Others won't. "Good" people obey most laws out of conviction ("you shall not steal") or because they see a greater good in them (they don't cross the street when the "don't walk" light is on and children are around, to give them an example). They don't even need laws about obvious matters, like theft, robbery, murder etc., they only need laws about complicated matters. "Evil" people need a kind of "obey the law or suffer" rehab.

I believe it was Michael Crichton who discussed this in fairly entertaining fashion, in his 1975 The Great Train Robbery (which most people don't know he wrote). Progressive culture finds the concept of the "criminal mastermind" useful, particularly when blaming a Republican President who they otherwise refer to as a chimpanzee or simpleton, because they like to believe a fantasy that criminal behavior correlates with inferior mental capability except in abnormal circumstances.

In reality, crime has been repeatedly shown to span social & economic dimensions (and class distinctions, where applicable) despite Progressives' desperate attempts to claim otherwise. There's always pseudo-science involved, whether IQ tests or phrenology. Frequently there are thought experiments like stealing a loaf of bread to feed a starving child, when the obvious truth involves thousand-dollar flat-screen Smart TV's, or embezzlement and fraud, not Wonder Bread.

Progressives always want to blame the system, or The Man, or Trump. Even though they are the ones who prefer "the system" in their hatred of personal responsibility and morality.

Because otherwise they have to admit that they and their beliefs are full of crap, and that there's a moral dimension to the Universe which deep down they know they, like criminals, stand in opposition to.

EDIT:
It doesn't need to be, if you are an idiot then it is more than likely you will at some point break the law. All one has to do is wait.
The objective of the Progressive State, of course, is that breaking the law becomes unavoidable. This allows the rule of "Man" to supersede the rule of "Law", as intended. Also commonly phrased as "It's not what you know, it's WHO you know."

Yes, Proselytism is something we use in our prison systems to help criminally minded people see the errors of their ways. Which is basically installing fear and it also implies that these people are somewhat evil in that we need to do this. I've heard the other argument from police that criminally minded people are considered primitive minded people as in 'its the animal behaviour' in us that takes over some peoples minds. Not something I subscribe to myself, everything always seems to boil down to chemistry imo.

Again, that's due to the ability to blame something other than yourself for your actions.

"The Devil made me do it" for the modern age, pretending that humans are no better than dumb animals driven by lusts & fears.

It must be the progressives then. :ROFLMAO:
 
But you were first at deciding that they are fascists, maoists, racists, criminals etc etc, so it doesn't count, right? Or is this a "plus and minus cancel out each other" issue?
 
These idiots are literally weaponizing the disease and I seriously can't blame the use of force against them. Maybe it will all end in the use of live rounds, I've always considered the MK19 and ideal crowd control weapon. Even if you are not allowed to load it up with grenades it still makes for the best way to pile rubber bullets into those pests.

Pests like the Lutheran minister, the Marine vet who lost his arm in combat and the woman who sets up the video bingo for the people at the old folks home? They are the 3 leaders of our local protests.

I haven't seen one protester not wearing a mask. Can't say the same thing for the weekend Trump boat rally at the reservoir. Nobody there was masked up and their boats were all tied together so you could walk from one to another. We all know who the plague rats are and who they vote for.

Yeah, pretty much. People have had decades to protest over police brutality but they chose now to do it. The whole BLM revolt are all made up of people who are looking for a way to break lock-down because they can not handle it. Most of them are whities too which says a lot. The people leading them are truly evil, criminally so. Taking elderly people and kids out to these gatherings so they can be used as human shields, it is terrible what they are getting away with. These so called leaders should be arrested and then shot. No stand on them, shoot them then arrest them and shoot them again.

Save some rubber bullets and flash bangs for the journalists covering the protests. <rollseyes>

Anyone who is mad about things that the protesters have done, I ask you, why are you more mad about those things than you are about white supremacy and racism?

Also, some of the stuff people are saying in this thread sounds like they're advocating murder? Should that be allowed here? 😬
You get a pass for advocating murder if you are a good conservative and vote Trump 2020.
 
What is happening now in Portland...

 
DHS is now detaining and or arresting citizens for *Future-Crimes in Portland. In their spare time, they beat the shit out of US vets and teargas your mom.



*The acting head of the DHS is calling these "proactive arrests".

I believe kris directed this at me - I'm trying to be technical, so I really didn't understand the jibe, if that was what was intended? Maybe definitions would help?
  • Progressive: someone who believes bigger centralized government is better government. Those who want to regulate industry & freedom for the citizens' own good.
  • Socialists: Progressives who believe centralized State control of more than just traditional fields of government (i.e. military, law enforcement, courts, international policy)
  • Fascists: Socialists who believes in the encompassing power of the State, ala Mussolini's definition. This encompasses Chinese "State Capitalism" and American "Corporatism" depending on your stance, but generally Fascists enjoy the benefits of
  • Communists: Socialists who believe that the ephemeral "People", meaning State enterprises, are more fair than the Fascist model.
  • Marxists: Communists who believe Karl Marx' model for establishing the COMmunist INTERNational, i.e. world-wide Communism.
  • Maoists: Communists who believe that traditional society must be forcibly eliminated and citizens re-educated, rather than expecting the COMINTERN to naturally occur when "Workers of the World, unite".

Anyone who is mad about things that the protesters have done, I ask you, why are you more mad about those things than you are about white supremacy and racism?
I don't believe you ever bothered to answer my subsequent set of questions in the other thread, though maybe I missed it. But no, I'm not more mad about white supremacy because there are so few white supremacists that the Progressive fascist Establishment and the Maoist rioters have to manufacture their existence in order to have an excuse for their own conduct.

, BLM founder]A lot of people are really attacking our pages. They’re like, ‘Oh, you support the looters.’ And yeah, we do, 100%. That’s reparations. And like however people choose to protest, especially if it was definitely in line with what happened with the shooting, which would be powerful to see people reacting … without organizers just being like, ‘We’re angry and this is what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna take the power back.’
In other words, they plan to steal goods and shoot people, and call it 'reparations'.

As for racism, I suppose you might not know that prior to Obama's deliberate campaign of race-hatred, Americans largely believed that race relations were quite good. It's fun & easy to blame Trump for it, including the fabrication about his claiming the neo-Nazi buffoons were 'good people', but it's not factually supportable.

P.S. Interesting to see the "ACAB" claim - for those who don't know, it stands for "All Cops Are Bastards". I, for one, heartily support your interest in living in a world without law enforcement (which Leo assured me in the other thread isn't what is intended). Unfortunately, as we saw with the libertarian argument
over the contracted fire department, I suspect those making the assertion now would be the same ones screaming their moronic little heads off when things get ugly.

Sadly, there's no support for building a wall around these places and making the advocates live with their demands. The example I gave of Alaska in the other thread isn't even popular with conservatives, and more's the pity.

For those of you "furriners", you may have heard that the violence has spread to the rural city of Kenosha, Wisconsin, which lies to the South of Milwaukee (Southerners, amirite?).

Kenosha exploded in violence when police gunned down an innocent man named Jacob Blake in cold blood with his children in the car (when responding to a domestic violence call against Mr. Blake, whose rap sheet is as long as my arm and against whom an active restraining order by his prior victim, the caller). Mr Blake was merely intervening in a domestic disturbance (what's a restraining order among, er, friends?) was unarmed (other than the wicked-looking "Karambit" knife which he had apparently just been tazered for threatening the officers with). Mr. Blake is currently in hospital and is likely to be paralyzed. It's not proven that he violently raped a 16-year old girl, because "minor" has a specific legal definition, after all.

In response, mostly peaceful protestors rioted, burning businesses & stealing SUV's from car dealerships, as well as defacing a church and a Jewish temple. Because truth to power, or something, particularly if you can get a free car, and the Jews are always to blame anyways so it's all good.

On Tuesday night, an armed vigilante (who had previously been interviewed guarding one of the car dealerships, rendering first aid to BLM rioters, and being thanked by Kenosha police apparently for acting as a police auxiliary) mercilessly shot down three innocent (white child-abusing ex-convict) protestors (who were attempting to kill him). Two have since died; the one whose arm had a giant chunk missing is in hospital (no information is available regarding the handgun with which he was planning to slaughter Mr. Rittenhouse). Mr. Rittenhouse has been arrested on charges of 1st Degree Murder, and obviously the New York Times is under intense fire for actually doing journalism kinda stuff that might allow a claim of self-defense. What are you going to believe, multiple on-location videos or Jesse Jackson's arrival to ensure the situation gets the appropriate amount of... encouragement?

Anyway, to answer Elly's original question, polling has started to show the ongoing riots are hurting Democrat chances. Joe Biden was already torn away from his pudding cup and the pre-teen girl assigned for his nipple-fondling pleasure in order to condemn the riots. So the BLM protest marches and accompanying riots by Maoists will end quite soon, or at least as soon as a conference with Nazi collaborator George Soros can be arranged, and will end with a whimper rather than a bang. Republicans and most of all the BADORANGEMAN have already been blamed for everything, ever.

P.S. I've found plenty more video which runs contrary to what you'll be told from the mainstream media, but nobody here is interested in the facts anyways, because ACAB. Of course, I work with a large number of police, even though I'm technically their number one suspect (risk assessment wise).

Contrary to Leo, I believe people when they say they want to defund and disband the police. I really, truly wish everyone here the ultimate success with their endeavors to that end. Because the only thing my recent survivalist experience demonstrated that I'm lacking is a decent generator, and I can always "liberate" one of those.
