    Everyone has PTSD these days.  I'm tired of this disorder being used by everyone to feel like they are victims.  You got some real bad PTSD lady.   I wonder if she hears fireworks and thinks she's being attacked.  I wonder how much black out drinking she did before she got help.  I wonder if she has a normal sleeping schedule.  I wonder if she's constantly on guard for potential  threats? Does she fear that she might accidently attack someone after a misunderstanding led to her feeling her life was threatened. Did she get into a bunch of sensless fights and arguments while binge drinking? Does she still do that when not taking her meds? Did she look at the face of her loved ones crying as she recovers from an episode.  Did she abuse drugs to feel better?  Does she think about death and killing everyday?  How much sleep did she lose last night? Did wake up alone and in pool of sweat again.  Does she see her dead friends.  Does she look at a homeless man and think that could be her one day without the right help?  My bet is no.  Fuck her and her fake PTSD and fuck anyone claiming they have it for sympathy.

    denigrating an alleged rape victim because her trauma isn't traumatic enough for you or fits your personal threshold is a new low.

    A lot of personal pref, so shoot various ones if possible. Big Glock fan, I think the 43X MOS with choose-your-optic is a solid conceal carry option and my pref (I’ve shot every other like-model competitor out there). Several good options out there. 

    G43 on the blue label program is hard to beat...simple, reliable, no safeties to mess with. but as mentioned above, it depends on your application.

    Are you suggesting because of what some priests did that makes what the Dalai Lama did ok?  This was in the news for one day at the most and that was it.  I’m sure if the Pope did the same thing it would have been in the news for more than a day…

    you seem more concerned with the media aspect than the actual abuses involved.

    If this was done by a Catholic Bishop or the Pope, or a leader in the Baptist church, you wouldn’t hear the end of it from the majority of the media.

    I'm sure the catholic church has plenty of controls to prevent any sort of abuse in their ranks 😂

    Did you actually read his post?

    i did...he quoted me where I asked to specify metrics to illustrate his point, and he didn't.

    As a Christian, yes, but that's not my point.

    ok, cool. Let's use Honduras as an (extreme) example. By what metric are they better than America?

    China is built on a communist ideology.  Converting China from a communist (and therefore atheist) ideology to a Christian one would undermine everything it is built on and likely make it collapse, especially if that was largely done in one person's lifetime.  We are just doing the opposite (going from Christian to atheist).  The United States surviving (at least in any form that even remotely resembles our current one) that quick transition as a country/culture/power seems unlikely.

    What you call conversion, I call progress. We have just about the entirety of human knowledge at our fingertips, so for someone to question some religious parable and realize it just doesn't add up (Noah's Ark?)...that's ok with me.

    Thanks for the discussion.🍻

    Great, but you still haven't answered my question. Saying "America sucks" because less people believe in an invisible man in the sky that gives kids cancer is just an opinion, even if it is held by multiple people.

    Are you insinuating that countries with a higher percentage of the population that subscribe to a judeo-christian faith are better?

    I broken rule number rule about arguing on the internet.  

    As we've resorted to childish taunts, I'm clearly hurting sensitive feelings.

    I'll stop de-railing the woke thread. 

    Back to the discussion of how to have community without religion.  Good luck with that.

    break the wrist, walk away

    Wow, what an astute argument. Are you trolling, or do you actually think a parental leadership vacuum makes no difference in a child’s direction in life? 

    not trolling, and i agree that shitty parents (male or female) cause plenty of issues. but saying they are "absolutely the root cause of the majority of what is wrong with America" is a pretty definitive statement with a lot of other variables at play (eg, social media).

    So admittedly I don't know where I got 200M from, probably just poor memory, big numbers and getting old. But here is the visual capitalist article on the timeline I was thinking about.

    🤔 even that article says $4M:

    pro tip: you can go to the SEC website and check for insider transactions (which is exactly what I did to refute your claim)

    AI is going to be life changing for so many people. There are a lot of admin task we do day to day in the AF that AI can solve in a matter of seconds. There are a lot of tactical applications that haven't even been investigated yet. 

    watch the first video here...pretty cool stuff

  11. No retirement or pension, so I try to max out both (employer-sponsored (with some matching) traditional 401K and private Roth IRA through Vanguard). I realize not everyone can do that (we're DINKs), so it's strictly retirement planning with no inheritance considerations. I plan to draw both when the time comes assuming I make it to that age, which should be a lower tax bracket than current. Let's hope social security is still a thing then too.

    Medical experts, Intel experts, border experts....seems to be a recurring theme on one side of the aisle.
