look everywhere except at the billionaires, monopolies, and private equity actually behind it. You know, the ones who own the politicians riling people up against each other. Now where did I put my guillotine?

lol. Well, fat is lighter than muscle, and usually distributed differently, but yeah, I also seriously doubt those stats.

Don't shoot, cut. It will require at least one of the others to stop to render first aid, reduces the chances of harm to people behind them (and behind you when they shoot back), and there are several easily accessible arteries not protected by standard body armour.

Also, when I say research, I mean real research. I was a professional researcher when I was young. And I recognise that is an almost impossible bar for most. It would be heartening to see more people do actual research, though, instead of social media and Google.

I would have more respect for my fellow citizens, and less fear for the future of my country, if I knew I could trust others to do the same. It saddens me that I can't realistically have that expectation of my fellow Canadians.

To be fair, I have never watched arguments between talking heads to help me decide how to vote in my over 40 years of eligibility to vote in Canada. I have always researched the problems, proposed solutions, voting history, and character of the candidates from which I can choose.

six masked individuals abduct woman and no one interferes. The fear of the ICEtapo is disgusting.

Just thought I'd look this up: "in Alberta, the poverty line can be as high as $40,777 for areas with a population under 30,000, while in British Columbia, it can be as low as $37,153 in rural areas" both of which are higher than $34,000. Why is any income below the poverty line even taxable?

Are the 1 in 5 prepared to die to carry it out? Because I, and 5 in 5 Canadians I know, are prepared to kill to stop it. (No teasing me about only knowing 5 people, I'm shy)

That would imply that if you invade my country I am not a good guy if I use violence to throw you out. I am prepared to go to hell so the rest of my people don't have to live there. And for those who are worried they're looking for an excuse for martial law, get creative with "accidents."

Does anyone else find it just a bit disturbing that the ICEtapo has neither issues staffing nor any reports of injured agents whatsoever. It's almost like no one is even trying hard to stop them.

As a Canadian IT professional, I say, nah, don't worry about your CISA staff. You don't need to protect your government systems, especially if you're going invade your neighbours. You're fine.

Have they even been seen recently? And what does their protection detail look like, protectors, or controllers?

Are they sure they didn't just catch fire on their own? They are Teslas, after all.

They may have elections, but they'll be no more legitimate than the Russian ones.

Big fan of this presentation. I'm spending the week chasing down and reading through all the references. Thank you.
