Just asking why...
Why do you need a AR15 rifle in your home? Why is it you need a Automatic pistol or smg?
Lose the fucking weapons and be like the rest of the world.. Gun freaks...
Be like the rest of the world? With an average of 17 million dead annually in genocides of disarmed innocents throughout the 20th Century? NO THANK AND FUCK YOU, genocide freaks...

Escalation...
If the officer hadn't apparently got out of his car to be within grabbing range of Mike Brown (who by all accounts, was walking in the street; not a reason to arrest someone) and instead used his PA to tell MB to get on the sidewalk (if there was one), and if MB didn't get out of the street then he could have used his sirens to annoy MB out of it, then used his car to slowly physically usher/block him out of it, then if he still insisted on walking in the street, then the cop could have said "ok dude, it's your right to commit suicide". All this would have been recorded on the dash cam and shown he was reasonable in leaving.
If you're in a deadly weapon on wheels, what's the military lingo? Button the fuck up.
Some of the most settled case law... police have no duty to protect anyone, whether it's suicidal people walking in the street from oncoming traffic, or the oncoming traffic from suicidal people in the street.

If not for Jim Crow laws, there would have been some sane, law-abiding witnesses able to exercise the right to self-defense against the police officer if he was really summarily executing Brown.

Actually the main and important point is that it is a right in the USA and a privilege in most other countries.
And interestingly, now with Bitcoin the question arises whether fiat currency is a right of the State, or may it be a privilege. And whether the people have a right to their own currency, or is it just a privilege. This may prove to be equally important as the 1st and 2nd Amendments in it's effects on nations across the world. Interesting point. And on the gun issue: The coming 3D printers will make it very easy for anyone anywhere to manufacture a gun, in the future it might be the ammo that is restricted instead. At some point someone will invent ammo that can be 3D printed. And as long as that technological leap will be made, I hope the inventor can also make the 3D printed bullets render people unconscious Star Trek style, but never be able to kill them. Well, or equally likely, alternative means of high energy projectile launching. I'd personally like a 3d printed hypervelocity railgun pistol that shot sewing needles. For a rifle, a compressed air operated 800 foot per second beer can launcher would do nicely. Not talking empty cans here... Same. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FWbu2ARJ.jpg&t=663&c=6t8VHasmVxSsAg)

How would someone get your cell number? Why to give it away to people?
It's my Google Voice #, I don't have a cell. I want people to buy stuff from me.

Taking down the government? That's what elections are for. But obviously many people here don't believe in democracy. You think you can win an armed fight against the majority of the people?
It depends on the country but in a lot of western country the voting turnout is so low that the Democracy isn't actually representing the people at all. But if the people doesn't want to vote, then that is also a part of the democracy, not voting is a kind of voting in it self, a way to say I don't care or I'm happy as it is. We want to see our votes counted and the worst possible evil to NOT "win" whenever it counts. Only one of these actually happens, so why should we waste our time on a discarded vote? "There are three and only three ways to reform our Congressional legislation, familiarly called, the ballot box, the jury box and the cartridge box". -Stephen Decatur Miller We are at the jury box stage right now. If the courts refuse to obey the law and SCOTUS rules to the effect of "there is no right to self-defense, so disarmament and subsequent genocide is absolutely legal", then there will be a full-blown civil war in the U.S. again, but between the tyrannical, undemocratically unelected tyrants, and we the people.

Elections are for the government to count the votes in favor of the worst possible evil. Electoral fraud is the rule, not the exception.

I wish they'd stop texting me repeatedly. Just because they change their caller ID doesn't mean I'm going to suddenly change my policy.

<gribble> Bitstamp | A market order to buy 22500 bitcoins right now would take 14951251.0172 USD and would take the last price up to 1199.9900 USD, resulting in an average price of 664.5000 USD/BTC. | Data vintage: 36.1918 seconds
If you're not going to drop $14,951,251 USD on BTC right now and hodl it long time, then it will continue to fall.

Nobody wants to go to the trouble, and all I have is a Mac so I'm not dealing with daily BSOD.

Now is an excellent time to buy.
$1 is. People will probably stop committing economic suicide at that point.

Why didn't Ferguson PD summarily execute every black rioter in the city? These are the mysteries of the universe.
