I find your linked study intriguing, as an American who's aware of studies on my side of the Atlantic that show an inverse relationship between immigration and criminality - i.e. immigrants commit less crime than native born citize

Please don't stoop to the level of lawlessness. Rule of law is already dangerously hanging on by a thread, taking a chainsaw to that thread isn't helping reign in the current administration whatsoever, it's only provoking the

Of course not. But it's still more work than passing the KYC checks on US Federal Reserve notes (there are none at all), or just printing fake US Federal Reserve notes that are so good it forces the Bureau of Printing and Engraving has

I hate those ponzi schemes! Never buy a cutco knife or those crappy herbalife supplements. Alternatively, just make sure you keep things consensual, and keep yourself safe, no judgement or labels from me :)

Whoa, slow down there. You can't just go around asking people to read first-party sources and think critically on their own about an issue without getting their opinion from their feed or influencer of choice. That's an unreasonab
