Does it actually prevent them from pleading those? As far as I'm aware they're still able to make those pleass, albeit it's likely to be in contempt or is considered willfull blindness. I don't think a court order can actually prevent someone from pleading a certain way, but please let us know otherwise.

There's no incentive for moderation to take action as long as it aligns with their "curious discussion" initiative, regardless of how disruptive they are to the forum as a whole. It's basically sealioning.

I do - perhaps something is misconfigured on your end?

I wasn't aware that was grounds for an execution without trial, thanks for clarifying!

I agree we should generally accommodate as many people as possible for the greater good of our communities, regardless of how we may feel at the time.

What is your view when they don't extend the same courtesy? We convince them to vaccinate to protect those who cannot be vaccinated, however they still dig their heels in the "got mine, forget you" mentality until it affects them personally? (Abortion rights, school lunches, walkable neighborhoods, food shelters and donation centers)

I do not believe this, and I don't think I said I did. Rather, I'm attempting to curiously understand OPs viewpoint, as I don't think it's intellectually honest. (For context, original OP said that the victim was 'resisting arrest')

Thank you for this. As far as I understand it, the victim was filming the ICE agent(s). I'm sure you'll agree that counts as resisting arrest and even putting the agent(s) lives at risk.

What I've observed is that Americans like to put themselves higher than other cultures due to their second amendment rights (and first, but that's neither here nor there), but when push comes to shove there's actually no real positive outcomes that come from having a country with it's citizens armed to the extent that Americans are.

My place had previous owners who had the foresight to thread the wire through PVC tube behind the wall. This means that when I wanted to add extra access points, it was easy to thread another cat5 through and pull it to where I wanted.

I don't think it's that easy to interrupt politicians, especially these days as more and more protections are justifiably given to them.

Do you have an example where you personally interrupted a politician effectively?

What's the point of law if no one is willing to enforce it?

Annexation usually refers to the US officially claiming legal and territorial sovereignty over another country.

I think the terms client state or satellite state more accurately reflect the situation. Hope that helps!

> It also probably goes with the fact that it is a very big country sharing one culture

Some Americans, even here on HN, genuinely believe that different states have different cultures in the same way different countries in Europe have different cultures cultures.

I find it interesting when people such as the writer of the linked post take their experience and think it can just be applied to everyone else, and it'll always be a positive outcome.

Apparently you can?

Thank you for your analysis. This is the kind of nuanced discourse I come to this internet forum for.

If nothing else, I do hope that everyone involved gets the help and care they deserve. Post-trauma depression is a real thing and diagnosis is sketchy at best.

Got it, thanks for the clarification. I'm surprised the President of the US is friendly with criminal gangs to be honest - this forum has always said that the US espouses justice with a stern, firm hand.

What's the source on ICE being mostly pardoned criminals? I was under the impression this administration was against criminal gangs.

> You are aware we do make many things in America today, right?

As someone who owns quite a few American made garments (and has paid the price to do so), I'm amazed you got such a long response that basically dodged the question.

I understand this reference! Nice call back to dang.

Considering Americans are fine with kidnapping another country's leader these days, I would say they're more than happy to also decide what laws Germany gets to use as well.

As someone who knows a lot of New Yorkers and Texans, it's definitely curious that people would refer to themselves as from a city versus from the country itself.

> The average American thinks the U.S is the best country in the world.

If it wasn't, then why would the American school system teach American students that it is?

From the HN guidelines:

> Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, put asterisks around it and it will get italicized.

> All bookings in popular places or on popular dates are NON REFUNDABLE.

I'll be sure to let the places I booked in popular places (Nice, Paris, London and just recently Times Square) that had refundable rooms they should be not offering those rooms. After I refund my booking for Times Square, that is.

In some ways the rest of the world's McDonald's are simply plummeting to the low quality of those in the US.

One could say this is where the free market of schooling comes into play. Does it make more economic sense for businesses to choose those with social skills learnt from home schooling, or ones who have not been home schooled? Definitely curious to see where this goes.

The problem is that Cybertruck drivers are likely to have a boisterous driving style which may skew the results - what other kind of personality would purchase a vehicle that is less practical than other trucks, less practical than other EVs and, whether we like it or not, carries a signal to other people on the road.

I'm not 100% sure - there's quite a few YC founders who have been on the Forbes 30 under 30. As we're commenting on one of their sites, I feel obligated to point out how great it is as an accelerator as well!

Not entirely sure comparing an administrative error to burning someone's house down (how do you even know they live in a house?) and killing their family lines up with the HN guidelines.
