Trump's inauguration crowd still stings eh?

True, but the argument itself suggests the rogue government would have a military we need to protect ourselves from with said rifles.

The public might have access to nearly equivalent rifles, but not the funds to buy those in great numbers. How many people do you know with a .50 caliber and the skills to use it?
Then there's all the weaponry you can't have. Grenades. Mortars. Armored armed vehicles. Drones. Navy guns. Missiles. I R scanning and other optical tech. Training. There's a lot more to the military than rifles.

With high tech warfare, guerrilla tactics should be far less effective than Vietnam, and Americans don't seem up to suicide bombing as a main tactic. It could sting them, but I don't think it could last like Red Dawn.

Once again, I'm pro gun, I have guns, I just think it's ludicrous to think they could fight the military. I'd be lucky to get a second shot off.

Float like a butterfly, sting like an angry lumberjack.

Great news...the Japanese Giant Hornet has recently established itself in Washington state.

Giant hornets are bee predators. They can decimate a hive in hours. Japanese honey bees have a defense against them...they can vibrate their bodies generating enough heat to kill the hornets but not enough to kill themselves. Italian and other European bee species don't have that defense. If giant hornets spread, they could be a death nail in the already struggling American bee/honey industries.
Also worth noting, they kill up to 50 people a year in Japan, but far more in China. They could be worse than killer bees in multiple ways. For instance, they can sting through a bee suit, each one can sting multiple times, and they can thrive in cold that killer bees can't survive.

To paraphrase Sting: I hope the Russians hate the Iranians too.

"I hope the Russians love their children too."

Russians -Sting

Yes, you have. You probably thought you were being complimentary or empathetic. Edit: At least that was my assumption, and why I didn't complain.

A: Severe population control....preferably 30+ years ago. Today, it requires a massive cull and birth control. Maximum human population capped at 1 billion, preferably less.

Clearly you don't hear me....you hear what you want to hear, like this phantom SOS. You just have Sting constantly playing in the background and are insistent it's me putting that message in a bottle, no matter how often I tell you it's not.
Remember, the Nostromo assumed they heard an SOS too....didn't work out well that time. ;-)

Keep in mind that Spock was half human. Otherwise he would have just been cold AI. Only dead people are cold.

Somewhere, out there, are a group of kids in a garage learning and practicing to use the weapons they chose to fight with. They are honing their skills and putting every effort into being marksmen.

Their weapons of choice have been proven to be highly efficient and affective in a clandestine way. Not by design but by happenstance.

Their dream is to be the next big hit rock band.

What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream -Pink Floyd

But to make it to the top their words and crafted notes must penetrate the heart where they will be stored and remembered when the time comes. The message:

Seems I'm not alone at being alone
A hundred billion castaways
Looking for a home -Sting

The people who are violated by those that hate are sent to a place that is very hard to reach. They only hope someone will hear them. Outside the wall.

You can hear them in music.

Isn't this where -Pink Floyd

This is where you come in. Don't forget your mighty pen. Your dream is at stake.

Your video, Tommy Chong - Sting Operation: When the DEA Is Onto You, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

What gets me is the dog is in better tune for that one "ROOXXXXXXXXAAAAANNNE!!!!111!1one" Sting does near the end.

I can't help but agree that the Jail systems in the US are a HUGE problem!! Jails should NEVER be a for profit business.

Hitting quotas for prisoners is the most disgusting thing I can think of when it comes to crime.

I guess, the biggest question here is the reasoning behind the Sting operation. Is this to fight a car robbery streak, or is this to fill quotas. That's a good thing the public should be asking - because that matters, and makes a huge difference.

Sorry, I just... this is fucking horrible.

I accidentally upvoted it and it's genuinely upsetting to me how unbelievably awful this is.

And I don't even hate Sting, but this..... it's just a travesty.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad both Jimi and SRV are dead, purely so they don't have to see this abortion of something beautiful they created.

this guy is such a dummy; I sure hope he doesn't get killed by a sting ray

I don't know if it has the same sting, but at least he was sentenced compared to most of the other cops who walk. Crossing my fingers that one life is saved because a cop in the future sees this and takes one extra second before killing someone.
