Tell that to the people of Vietnam/Iraq/Afghanistan...those bigger guns cannot patrol a street corner. Occupation requires soldiers.

You know how you change the people who support you into rebels? Bomb the house right next to theirs and kill a few of them as well as the rebels.

A gun can be used in defense. I don't understand the want to remove the one thing that gives you a chance at survival, while a literal fascist is in power right now....one that just built a concentration camp and sells merchandise to it like it's funny...guns are dangerous, but they're the only thing that equalizes everyone when force comes into play.

You can buy a car at any age, with no insurance or license, drive it without on private land, and it can cross into any state in the nation.

You also cannot buy military hardware in 10 mins at your local store. All rifles in the USA that you purchase without a form 1 and a boat load of cash are bolt action or semi-auto. You cannot go to the store and buy a fully automatic or burst action rifle or handgun. I don't know where you got your info from but it's way way wrong.

Size of magazines also are a completely pointless exercise. Swapping a mag is a 1/2 second process, and with practice can get it down to even quicker.

Wasn't there a picture of a russian pilot flying with a garman or tomtom gps? I'm pretty sure this was taken during this war.

I think you're missing the point here. This is about research being locked behind a paywall that causes it to not be used.

The turnip won. It definitely helped

What's stopping them from doing this now?

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Or just say they ran out of paper. Like there are more pros than cons to this system. Nothing is going to be perfect.

I'm suggesting that if the abuse is large enough that it swings entire elections, then it should be looked into as a why it's happening vs saying we shouldn't do something about voter fraud because something else might happen.

Yea... I'm kinda seeing that. It's not a hard concept lol it's a paper receipt. Toss it away if you're worried about it.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world -2 points 1 week ago (18 children)

Sure while this is a concern, why aren't we instead looking into the abuse vs suggesting we no do something because of another problem?

You could literally just throw it away and then they wouldn't be able to do anything. If someone is threatening you to vote a certain way and they're doing this to enough people that it makes a change.... we've got much bigger problems than vote tracking.
