“The time when countries use air drops, and these maritime piers, is usually if not always, in situations when you want to deliver humanitarian aid into enemy territory,”
That should have spelled it out enough for those that don’t understand. Gaza is considered enemy territory as a direct result of Hamas actions. So the US is trying to help the innocent in a hostile environment.
I hate everything leading up to this and what will lead after this with our political judiciary, hate that this was in no way brought up in good faith, but basing assistance on class is literally the best way to do it, and sell it to the people at large.
I lowkey find this ruling OK in a vacuum. Assistance should be based on wealth, not race.
You can be rich or poor, black or white, and still be left behind economically. Race is a good indicator because history, but doesn’t capture the fundamental underlying problem of oppressed underclasses.
When you base assistance on class/wealth, you help EVERYONE who needs help, and you both help and sidestep the hillbilly voters wondering why “Dem Blacks” have a hand up while their family farms (their lives for GENERATIONS) are left to rot and are left behind.
Seriously, pro-worker policies are possible in the US, it just has to be framed as pro-worker in general, not just pro-a-race-america-fucked-over policy.
There’s a lot of people standing in the way of any mental examination determining whether or not someone gets to have access to a gun. There’s a lot of people standing in the way of restricting anyone’s access to guns, period.
They’re perfectly fine with the switch from law abiding gun owner to mass shooter and never exploring what could have been done to prevent it. Namely making sure some people get their guns taken away or don’t get them at all.
More tangible. They’ve held actual polls for it, though the government called it illegal and tried to suppress it, and a lot of people boycotted it, so it wasn’t a valid result.
I guess I didn’t make my point the way I wanted to… I’m more complaining about the fact that every single company is tracking everything we do all day everyday and I don’t particularly want that happening. That being said of course and I want China randomly tracking our stuff either
Further proof that The Pentagon is taking us for a ride, when they claim to need over a billion in tax dollars each year, for drones and fighter jets. There are far more economical ways of exterminating foreign civilians available
This bears repeating. It’s only cheaper if you’re a fascist unconcerned with due process. So you should really just stop lying or take your Nazi rhetoric elsewhere.
How many appeals do they get currently? How many should they get? You said they typically don’t appeal because they are innocent, so what about the atypical cases where they are innocent?
Since the 70s, 1584 people have been executed, of which at least 197 have later been exonerated. So a cool 10%. How high would you like it to go to save money?
You’re right, but how expensive is it to make sure that the people you are punishing actually are criminals, and how expensive should it be to make sure that the punishment is proportional to the severity of the crime?
Also, is prison about punishment, or is it about reform? (Trick question)
Men’s Rights Activists(Whom I have many overlapping areas of agreement with)will revel in this news, just as Greens creemed their underroos over news of The Yangtze River Dolphins extinction… Such stories “prove” an activist’s gloom and doom worldview, without ever raising the question “How do we accumulate the public support necessary to gain the sort of political power that would prevent such things from occurring?”
