Enjoy? sure.

Legitimately and wholeheartedly defend, even to yourself? Less sure.

Inb4 he gets caught on camera doing something morally reprehensible and uses this as a defense

The Portuguese were definitely nice to the natives, and we know this because of all the Portugese accounts saying so. 👍

Remember when they were called “rare earth metals” before he called them “rare earths” in a demented stupor that one time. And now it’s just accepted terminology. I hate my country

But vasectomies don’t make it so you can’t have babies, they just change the color of the babies.

…right? :(

“The aforementioned case” just means “the case that was mentioned previously.”

Yes, it is 100% in the public interest to break confidentiality to report instances of egregious bodily harm to other human beings. The confessional seal should not be more important than justice for victims of crimes. This is why many countries have mandatory reporting requirements.

It is not for the priest to decide whether someone is at risk of reoffending. We should not trust bad people to police themselves. And if the situation is someone confessing to hurting another person, they have already breached the trust placed in them by society. If you just ask them to turn themselves in, they will often breach that trust again.

Bro what is the purpose of this confidently incorrect diatribe you’ve been on? It just seems like you have some sort of superiority complex and it is readily apparent that you are coming into this from a place of bare ignorance. No, deer cannot see blaze orange. Yes, it comes in multiple patterns of camo in addition to solid. People wear either, both, or none depending on what they’re hunting and what the laws are locally. You’re not going to call a turkey into shotgun range wearing that shit. I mean, anything is possible but it would be far more difficult.

Is it strictly necessary to wear camouflage to harvest an animal? No. But it will improve your chances profoundly. And the assertion that hunters didn’t wear camouflage in the US until after GWOT is just so…bizarre. Mossy Oak has been around since the 80s; maybe you should blame all of this on the invasion of Grenada. Makes about as much sense. No one’s dressing up like an operator and cosplaying convoy security in Kandahar to go hunt, man. They’re putting their clothes on, going into the woods with equipment that does the job, and going home to make some fried backstrap and gravy or roast a turkey. Most of us do this shit to eat.

I get it, a lot of southerners are pieces of shit and their bloodlines should have been cut short long ago, and hunting is a culturally significant activity for that demographic, so it must be beneath you. But please don’t just make shit up just for the hell of it. Or if you do, make it more fun to read. I’m not even sure what point you’ve been trying to make this whole time.

Well, I’ve been a paramedic for a long time, a paramedic instructor for half as long, and a firefighter longer than either of the other two. Your friend sounds like a pompous dipshit, and his attitude is the reason we keep killing ourselves.

The ones who think they’re coping just fine are usually taking it out on their body or their family, in my experience. If you are exposed to shit like that at work, it always catches up with you eventually. Some people last years, some last decades, and some last one call. It’s the nature of the work.

Which is why you should always provide those resources. It saves lives. I really don’t see anything to suggest that the plaintiff is lying about having PTSD or is just trying to make money; I think that’s just the social stigma of PTSD providing you with rationalizations for your own problematic beliefs.

I mean, by that same logic, we shouldn’t offer mental health counseling to first responders because they knew what they were getting into when they signed up for it. You can say there’s a difference between naiveté and stupidity, but it’s entirely arbitrary.

Idk man, I feel like you’re really missing the point here. If you’re going to hire people to do a job that involves exposure to traumatic material, you need to provide resources for them to process and recover from it.

Yeah fuck Elon but starlink has actually been incredible for rural areas.

Y’all’d’ve (YAWL-duh if your drawl is heavy enough): You all would have

I have zero idea how you can look at the democratic party’s behavior, leadership and priorities over the past 20 years and believe this in good faith.

So when a tradesman’s back finally gives out and he gets fired for not showing up to work, he should not be eligible for unemployment, medicaid, medicare, food stamps, housing assistance, subsidized health insurance, or any other publicly funded assistance. That’s his problem to solve.

After all, the data has always shown that this is the sacrifice you make by not going to college. Degrees have always been economically worth it in the long run, and that information was always readily available, so why is it everyone else’s problem and cross to bear when one more plumber decides he actually can’t do this job until he’s in his mid sixties? We should just let people die for making poor choices.

OR

We live in a society that requires a variety of skill sets and knowledge bases, including the trades, retail, food service, the sciences, the humanities, medicine, and plenty of other fields that require postsecondary study. We should remove all financial barriers to education, and we should eliminate student debt, because it serves no purpose other than lining the pockets of large financial institutions. And generally speaking, you know, we should take care of glaring issues we see in our society, like a plumber who can’t work for medical reasons or a Ph.D who can’t effectively contribute to society because he’s crushed by student debt. And we should do all of those things with public assistance programs.

Also, “should have read the fine print” is a dead giveaway for being on the unethical side of an argument.

Nah, no one would choose to be in debt.

Bro chose to get an education. Big difference.

Well, it’s impossible for anyone who owns a red sports car to become homeless, so he must have been lying.

Nah plenty of people use them dawg. Maybe you just haven’t been exposed to it.

Yep. It’s quite literally an expression of power for them. Pointing it out does nothing but feed them.

By calling it “[your] expected outcome” I believe you’ve answered your own question there.

Consent is important, dickweed. Cry about it.
