CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

There you go. You were mistaken. No apology necessary.He said something stupid a couple of years ago and continue to say stupid stuff now.
The journalist and former CNN anchor had suggested on podcast The Left Hook with Wajahat Ali that "Black people, brown people of all stripes" should "legally" get a gun in case their homes were visited. He also added he was "not condoning or promoting violence."

You tell me what guns are for.
That’s your own interpretation.
Yeah that’s what I’ve been saying for years against those second amendment “don’t tread on me” types. This is just their right wing foolishness being reflected back and no surprise, you guys don’t like it.
Not at all. It’s been the right that has advocated for gun ownership to protect against a tyrant. Now the left is joining them.
We should be glad we’ve found some common ground!
Floyd did not have that option. He was submitted and subdued and restrained with an officer on his neck for almost 10 minutes. That’s why he died.
No one is calling for violence. Arming oneself is a constitutional right. Advocating for an legally armed citizenry is a constitutional right.
Someone should tell all the right wing militias about this. It’ll be news to them.

AI and I stumbled on something huge that could change the world in the next few years

I'll eventually build a prototype sometime when I finally could but I don't see it happening in the next few years.
If it fails, it wouldn't be the first time someone attempting to invent something failed in the first few attempts. Thomas Edison went through 1000 failed attempts isn't?
I won't go that far though. I'll probably give up after a few failed attempts unless the failures were trivial like some parts getting stuck or breaking. Most the principles involved are well established in mechanical engineering and failures concerning operational principles shouldn't be too hard to investigate that after few failed attempts, it would be very clear.
For the moment, it's clear beyond doubt it's not violating the most important 1st law of energy.
This is what air molecules may resemble at ambient temperatures and my engine concept theoretically extracts work from them collectively. At room temperature, the average speed of air molecules is approximately 1,100 mph which is really high in terms of energy density, like trying to run a wind turbine with 1,100 mph wind! What I'm trying to do seem ridiculous but what's more ridiculous is for more than a century nobody tried to exploit that enormous energy density contained in room temperature gas. Extract work from these and you're simply ending up with very cold gas and energy is conserved.
If successful this tech will usher in the next stage of advancement of the human civilization - The "Post-Energy-Scarcity Age" as well as the end of global warming. Current renewable energy sources won't make them happen due to very low power densities and massive ecological footprint. They may not emit air pollution but can still affect the environment in big ways, generate significant waste heat, and have very high capital expenditures due to massive structures/large quantities of expensive components, and huge land areas required. The low power densities would eventually fail to meet demand of the rapidly growing population and shrinking spaces (including offshore) to place these units.

What did you think the guns are for? And he saying that he is not condoning violence is rubbish. He wants people to take out guns at ICE and shoot ICE agents. Again us a really bad idea to take out a gun in law enforcement. This will cost lives but I guess you condone that kind of thing.
I would submit and then sue the hell out of them. If George Floyd would have done that he would still be alive today.
What bothers me is the call for violence by your leftist side that is not protected under the constitution. No where is the second amendment does it give anyone the right to draw guns against law enforcement. Your side disobedience nonsense cost people’s lives.
Former Trump supporter Pamela Hemphill refuses Jan. 6 pardon; apparently the only one to do so (ETA: there is another...)

Related to the J6 pardons, I didn't want to make a new thread and the main one is locked.
At this point, I don't think most of the pardons will matter. More than a few seem to want to find their way back to prison.

I suspect they think that Trump will pardon them again, since they are just trying to "help" get rid of the "traitors." Unfortunately, he is charged under New York State law, meaning if he can't get it moved to Federal Court, he has no chance of a pardon.
