What if I blew up a water tower?

Or burned down every grocery store in the city? (At night, while no-one was there to get hurt)

In other words, you can’t use violence against an empty car dealership in the middle of the night. So it’s not violent.

Enough damage to that dealership costs someone money. That's harm.

Maybe not a lot of harm. But it's harm.

Most of our government seems to be.

This isn't a case of logic, it's a case of observation.

It's also a joke. There are very few Democrat leaders that get involved in gay sex scandles, not because they don't have gay sex, but that their base doesn't care. Most of us just call it "sex" unless we have a specific need to differentiate. Some additional factor is required to make it a scandal.

Republicans, though, officially disapprove of gay sex. So anytime one of them is caught having any, automatic scandal.

It's honestly not too bad an idea, provided they are old enough.

I have no expectation of inheriting anything. Between medical bills and consumer debt, and the fact that my family is poor as shit anyway, there will be nothing to inherit. They might as well run that credit card debt up, because it dies with them.

I might feel differently if I had any reason whatever to feel bad about cheating credit card companies out of their money, but banks and financiers as a whole address not on my list of favorite people.

This is why gatekeeping is actually important. But you've got to be sure you're keeping out the people who want to change the group, rather than people who want to join it.

I actually stopped buying their products.

No huge loss. Black beans are black beans.

The broadside cruiser trait seems like exactly what I want for my Galaxy.

If I wanted to be noticed, I'd go outside. The reason I liked reddit, more than any other social media, was because my identity was practically irrelevant. Only my posts mattered.

I would be suspicious of any big company trying to set up a manufacturing facility. Jobs, yes. We need jobs. But the company is not here to provide jobs, they are here for cheap labor. They area here because they hope the desire for good jobs will blind people to the environmental risks of the project.

And I would expect a Chinese company operating in America to be more of a risk then any other combination I'm aware of. The American people don't trust regulations. The American government doesn't enforce regulations. And the Chinese culture, as far as I can tell, believes that regulations exist to be broken. Three groups that have no use for anything that will protect the environment is a recipe for toxic waste releases.

I'm relented reminded of the joke about the medical students.
