Perhaps he simply wasn't armed. I'm against gun control but am also not armed 24/7 either. Unlike most on the website, I've been in the situation of having to approach a shooter. Some of us still believe what we did before that after.
This isn't a "gotcha". I'm a big fan of classic cars but that doesn't mean I'll stand there when one is driving fast straight at me.
Oh look, an Aussie that needs you know that. Yes yes, everything is better there, it has to be, why else would y'all spend so much time trying to convince everyone of it.
Are you a foreign to the USA trucker who spent a good portion of the last 7 years south of the border? No? I am, and know exactly what I'm talking about, intimately familiar with farm/ranch end prices and also wholesale prices as I now own a restaurant. I'm the rare person who's worked at every end of the food industry and the middle too, as well as being a frequent customer in 22 states and 8 provinces. and very familiar with currency conversions from all the commodity rates, shipping and ordering. Meanwhile you are some fucking guy saying "nuh uh" who likely needs to go to wikipedia to try describe current American farm subsidy policy.
I'm sorry you're a moron, and I don't take financial advice from people who can't figure out something as simple as tipping protocol. And quit lying, food is definitely cheaper on average in the states, and greater quantity too.
I don't think a lot of Lemmy understands it doesn't matter how you are subsidizing the wages, you're doing it regardless. Like this clown who thinks food will be cheaper if more cash goes through the owner to the waiter instead of straight to the waiter. Regardless of system the customer is paying for everything, not the owner, unless of course his business is failing. Imagine the entitlement required to desire everyone change their model to make things cheaper for you, at a business that is completely a luxury. You could simply learn to cook instead of whining about tipping.
Dude, everyone understands the tipping system, the market isn't gonna correct if it goes away because you'll still be paying the exact same amount.
I'm starting to feel you know and just don't like it. Which is fair, it's kinda awful.
It's almost.....Like when everyone in government is of the same religion, it's similar to everyone in government being of no religion at all.
idk guys, maybe she needed the plane there and it made more sense than driving across the city, then driving back to get on the plane.
You ever consider why China is building aircraft carriers now, when previously they had no need, as their interests were limited to places they could access by land?
NATO is exactly the same beast, to those not in it. All those pre WW1 alliances were M.A.D. prototypes, same as NATO.
