40 years ago I used to walk from my home with an uncased rifle on my shoulder across school property right past the school entrance to get to my hunting grounds bordering the school. Nobody thought twice about. These days if I tried that I’d be swarmed by the SWAT Team in military style vehicles and immediately taken down, maybe even shot. My how times have changed.
At this point, if you call 911 for a burglary in process you won't get a response. If you want a quick response report a dog off the leash.

That's why i keep my handgun loaded at the ready. The cops won't be quick enough, if they show up.

I'll quote the final post from that thread:

You have a choice to make. Drop it, or go elsewhere.
Yes sir commandant sir! Lol

Yep, totally agree.

In general and not responding specifically to Eighty, I don’t believe there is any true speech on the internet if you don’t own everything you’re communicating over. I will use two cups and a string for this example, with the cups being servers, the string being either satellites or land wires, and mouths being laptops. If a person owns cup A, cup B, and the string to connect them, then they can control all mouth communications from cup A to Cup B. If the person thought “cups are too expensive and I want to use Amazon’s cups and string to talk over”, then that person is subject to their terms of service. This simple example kind of holds true for every communication that’s not owned end to end by an individual. Maybe carrier pigeons are a good idea.
very true. But if an entity edits/blocks one point of view, then the opposing point of view must receive equal restriction. Seams too many people get feeling hurt, and feel the need to silence the opposition.
If you think about all the other(IMPO) raw, violent, and sexual content that peacock airs, Woody is pretty mild. Fair is fair, and I canceled them because it is my right.

Exactly. If only certain people with certain views get censored, canceled, etc then this isn’t a free country anymore. There is programming that offends me as well, I just don’t watch it or listen to it, but I support their right to say it.

Once again, the leftists can't do that. Hate speech is different than speech you hate
