Pro tip: if someone says something is anything based on race or regional group, they are likely lying to you. Double if group is asian. Double again if china. “Ancient Chinese wisdom” is actually, by some mathematical quirks, 103.7% likely to not be from china.

Hey I’m sending thoughts and prayers, the official sponsor of not doing shit to save children from being murdered.

Edit: apparently people don’t find American child protection systems to be effective… who’d have thunk it.

What action would you suggest, that will stop this in any way?

I said that will stop this in any way. Do you have an example of this working in the last 40 years?

Is there an example in the last 40 years of this working in the United States?

But I got the opportunity to make a dumb joke about math that you seemingly got mildly butthurt about, so really it all works out.

You criticized people for “not lifting a finger” and get mad when someone asks which finger you personally lifted? You are only allowed to criticize people for living their life if you are not a hypocrite. It sounds like of the items you listed I’d describe 60% as barely lifting a finger (phone canvas, minimal value; “vocal” online, zero value) and 40% as definitely lifting a finger (volunteering at unspecified org) which makes you not a hypocrite by my personal math.

I personally have no intention at all of answering your question because I didn’t make any statements as generally attacking as your own to start with, and feel no need to justify asking you to show your stripes.

I am not sure where guns came into play. However, I don’t think you should be owning guns: you don’t seem 100% stable given the disproportionate response, and I would worry that disproportionate response would come out while driving or other stressful activities.

Labor was free because of slavery, so the economics were not the same. Current engineering has the concept of “over engineering” which is what cracked-up addicts in wall street call “building to last”, due to the “expense” of not being shortsighted on a quarter by quarter basis.
