That's not true in most the USA. Shopkeepers privilege allows them to confine you and/or the goods, which depending on state only requires something akin to "reasonably believed you were stealing." In my state a shopke

I will totally agree you have a valid point. But ponder this, both the democratic and republican parties have held fully stacked power at various times since 1798. Why didn't any of them repeal the alien enemies act, which is clearly

And 0% of them signed the constitution, declaration of independence, or any of the fictions which authorize their government. Being forced to pick between a couple assholes and then being damned for it can be really rich (oh yes you can vo

I know who to blame. I think I know exactly what protocol they were shaking down on this guy because my passport was flagged on a similar list after fighting in a Syrian militia for a US ally that US government employees often support. Wh

Guy folded like a tent in 90 minutes and gave up his contacts. Attorneys talk a big game about remaining silent, but in the end can't even stand up to a 90 minute intimidation session. I've been through the wringer including shac

The business decision of these tariffs very well be to just offshore American operations altogether. Better to keep most the world market and lose America. It's not a given businesses will choose to invest in an isolationist country

I would argue the spectra of human vocal speech is more constrained than the far wider spectra of radio waves. What most places do is just limit sound beyond a certain level rather than requiring a license to play electronic sounds or talk

It will make more sense once you realize DHS starts with the idea the immigrant is evil and then just works backward towards some plausible excuse. It doesn't matter what the excuse is, anti-Semitism could have been swapped out with &

Radio is the media. It just means you ought to be able to broadcast pirate radio without a permission slip from the government to use the airwaves in a constrained range of speech. Not that you ought to be able to take over someone else&#

Perhaps but it's because you two are talking past each other. The free speech some people refer to are that devised under the concept of classical liberalism which spawned the bill of rights, under which the right to free speech is a

Does knowingly blowing up a citizen with a drone count as denaturalization?

Absolutely true but it's worth noting this has only been done for a small fraction of marijuana crimes, and as far as I know not at all through the backdoor method commonly used (by all administrations) where they just prosecute otherw

The statute of limitations for many crimes exceed the term of any executive, so this is quite risky to rely on. You could just be prosecuted by the next guy for crimes done under the previous guy.

There is still a piece of truth to it. If I warehoused anything but dollars as a "fractional reserve", the first time the system fails (as the banking system has many times even under the federal reserve most notably in the great

That doesn't matter. The loophole is known, possibly even desirable, the point is to save face.

Hopefully not, Canada likes to peak into US records for stuff like a DUI from years ago from some guy who slept in his car at the bar so he would not drive home drunk, resulting in a policeman arresting him and then him being barred from th

Take this to the logic absurdity, you have a car you previously sold for $2 for $1 COGS. Tomorrow COGS is $1M for the car. Could you sell it for $1M+1? No you would lose your ass because your line of credit and investments would not be a

Because the market recognized value add is the capital investment and returns, including the credit basis on which inventories flow. These people are operating on a per $ basis, not a per shoe basis. If the margins % lower then the capita

Your country exchanges this information with the US, and the other five eyes countries. So it is even worse than just US CBP employees eyeing it.

It's my experience that once you get sent to secondary they have already decided to fuck you, they are just deciding which flimsy excuse they will use to do it. My totally non-legal conjecture (and livid experience) is if you are a ci

As a US citizen it is still a bit useful. You cannot be denied entry (CBP has told me they would deny me entry, but in the end they just threaten to revoke your passport which is also a lie). If they have decided they want to search your

Even though I 100% agree with you, the one piece of merit here is that the world is pissed shows that they recognize they lost something. They would not care if we were merely shooting ourselves. Now if they are pissed and totally lost tru

Unless of course you try to transmit it to someplace your bank or the government doesn't like, or the bank has dumb AML controls. In which case the transaction will likely get held up if it can be sent at all. If you try to transfer

But it isn't just the military. There are government civil servants that draw pension at 20/25 years as well such as FBI agents. Makes more sense to say .gov rather than just the military.

Might just be regional. An insanely high proportion of my rural neighbors are people who did 20 years in the military and started receiving benefits around age 40 and were able to use those benefits to supplement a homestead. How many pri

It would take you 10+ years of skilled labor savings in any case to afford a homestead capable of sufficient farming and hunting output to sustain a family. Because you are competing not with homesteaders but rich professionals or pensione
