Correct. Trump told them to march peacefully, and that is what the majority of them did. It is a minority of people who acted with violence.
Incorrect.  Trump told the crowd to “fight like hell” and he would be right there with them.

Freedom of the press isn’t about how many questions Trump answers.  It’s about which members of the press are allowed to ask which questions and what they get to say about the answers.Every President must answer every question from every news agency ALL THE TIME!!!

*sigh* Again, freedom of the press has nothing to do with how many questions Trump does or doesn't answer.  If you don't like my definition, try this one:
Freedom of the press is the protected right to freely publish communications and expressions of opinions through various forms of media . Freedom of the press limits the government’s control or censorship over the media, except in the most severe national security risk potential. The right is guaranteed by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which states:

    “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech , or of the press ; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Trump's constant attacks on the media are not conducive to a free press;

It isn't trolling according to LD, when a president who has answered over 1500 questions from the press in 57 days, is somehow against freedom of the press.

And that is questions he has personally answered, not even counting the number of press briefings given by his administration!

LMMFAO!!!

MORE COMEDY GOLD!!!

You can't make this shit up!!!

Do the citizens have the constitutional right to threaten the life of the vice-president for doing his constitutionally mandated duty?

Yes, the specific way he was targeted was legitimate. The MAGA narrative is typically to find traitors guilty in a military tribunals and then hang them. Chants of "hang mike pence" are legitimate in the sense that they are calling for the military to hang him on charges of collusion and treason.
What makes you think that the mob had any intention of waiting for a military tribunal to convict Pence before hanging him?  Seems to me that they were ready for some good old fashioned vigilante justice.

The other thing you are forgetting (perhaps not, you probably just have no real clue) is that the US Capitol is a traditional public forum, and the citizens of the United States have a constitutional right to air their grievances in such a forum.
Do the citizens have the constitutional right to threaten the life of the vice-president for doing his constitutionally mandated duty?

Suspiciously, no one anywhere ever uses them!
Nonsense.  Over 2000 atomic and nuclear bombs have been used in test explosions over the years by at least 8 countries.

It's okay for you to admit you want more people in this war to die,
It seems to me that, as the aggressor, Putin is the one who wants more people to die.  Zelensky is the one who wants to defend his people and national sovereignty against Putin's aggression.  Trump is the one who wants to use the situation to profit off of Ukraine's strategic natural resources without guarantees to help assure their security against further aggression.

Flat Earth Community / Re: Your data is at risk if you use this app
« on: March 04, 2025, 03:43:36 AM »
It doesn't actually matter how insecure an application is. If you are knowingly employing methods to access passwords or data that you know you should not be looking at, this is considered unauthorized access to a computer system in many jurisdictions and you could face legal punishment. You are the criminal, regardless of the shoddyness of the programming. Many states have cybercrime laws which criminalize the unauthorized access of computer systems and the publication of methods to do so.
That's the point, Tom.  Shoddy security makes it far too easy for criminals to access your personal data.  Laws keep honest people honest.  They don't do much to discourage actual criminals.

This isn't smart to publicize this and how it works. Conspiracy Toonz is engaging in criminal behavior by publishing this and providing proof of concept scripts. Dave Weiss, or possibly anyone who has their data in the app, could press charges.
I'd be more likely to press charges against Dave Weiss for leaving such obvious and easy to exploit vulnerabilities in the app.

I just checked the Apple app store and the version history mentions security upgrade about 2 months ago, so the issues may (or may not) be fixed.

The ilk here want to support Zelensky, despite no free elections in the Ukraine, and that is exactly why he is a Nazi.
When is the last time that Russia had free elections?  What does that make Putin?

Zelensky knew he is low on soldiers, all of the peoples on the flat earth plane knows he is low on soldiers.
And yet Russia is the one calling in North Korean troops to fill their ranks.  Maybe Russia is low on troops too.

The idea of a speed of light limit is part of SR. However, this is a misconception of SR that things would suddenly stop accelerating.
SR does not say that "things suddenly stop accelerating" as they approach the speed of light.

Correct. That's what our visitors say.
That's also what your wiki says.

Correct. If others must suffer to fix government spending, it is a sacrifice worth making.
How much are you willing to suffer to fix government spending?  How much do you think that Trump or Musk are willing to suffer?  Or are you okay with it as long as it's "others" that do the suffering?  You can bet that none of Trump's billionaire buddies are going to suffer.

SR does not say that "things suddenly stop accelerating" as they approach the speed of light.  SR says that as things accelerate toward the speed of light, it approaches asymptotically.  It can get ever closer, but can never quite equal c.  It's right there in the velocity addition formula that is so well documented in your wiki article.

There's a well-known paradox in special relativity involving two rockets connected by a string, both accelerating equally and constantly. In an inertial frame relative to the rockets, they maintain a constant distance apart. The question is whether the string breaks. The most accepted answer is yes, due to length contraction.
It could probably be argued that the string would not break because the distance between the rockets would contract along with the length.
