OK I checked, the FBI statistics are based on reported crimes. So who's publishing statistics that say the only crimes are the ones that get successful convictions? And your two examples don't show what you think, in both the Floyd George riots and the Jan 6 riots there were a whole lot of people protesting and a small percentage of people committing the crimes. The flash mob robberies are a good point though, because of store policies I don't know if those even get reported. Maybe we should just stick to Mark Twain's advice about statistics. -

Just because you don't prosecute a crime doesn't mean it wasn't reported. James Woods is usually smarter than that. -

Yep, it always has changed and it always will, but every time it changes it does it for a reason. Just a few short hundred years ago, which is less than the blink of an eye in the Earth's time scale, we started the Industrial Revolution which meant we were burning things and sending stuff up into the sky. But that's not all it meant. We also had other scientific and medical advances so we were living better lives, dying less from disease, and living longer. In that little historical blink of an eye we went from half a billion to eight billion so it wasn't just emissions, it's also resource consumption and waste generation. Weird things we're seeing now aren't only regular weather or climate changes, they're also the Earth just now starting to try and correct for changes directly attributable to us, and it's gonna keep getting worse as long as we stay stupid enough to not change anything we're doing. Don't worry, the Earth will be fine, but that doesn't mean we will. We might kill ourselves off by our own stubbornness just because we think we have to disagree with everything the other side says. -

You just make it look more like we're actually military! (some people end up liking me anyway cause I worked A-10s) -

Oh it's a conspiracy theory and not just a boast! You'll be surprised to find out that I believe network security experts over a guy on the internet. -
Covid going around AGAIN

I have a question, maybe somebody can answer it without getting all emotional about which side you have to believe to be a sheeple. Is there anybody who thinks the death toll wouldn't have been higher if there was no shutdown and we kept going to work and other places like normal? Maybe the number of people highly likely to die would have been about a million no matter what we did, or maybe it would have been double that or even more? Has there ever been a serious study done about that? -

You can write whatever you want, but how do you insert the code without getting flagged? -

Hey for any of you that don't have me blocked, you might be happy to know there's a meme with no way I could argue against it! Merry Christmas! -
Science and Consensus

Of course climate change is caused by us, the only way to think it's not is to focus on one fact so you can ignore all the rest. There was more to the Industrial Revolution than just starting to burn things that cause emissions. There were also a lot of technical and medical advances that increased our population and our lifespans, we went from half a billion people to eight billion in less than the blink of an eye and the weather events we're seeing now is the Earth just barely starting to react. It's not just emissions, it's also a drastic change in resource consumption and waste generation and it's not sustainable. Don't worry, the Earth will be just fine, but if we insist on being stupid it will be fine without us. -

If somebody goes to bed with a guy just because he gave them some coke, she's still the one making the decision. He drugged them and then did whatever he did while they were unconscious, how is that different than hitting them on the head and doing whatever you want while they're unconscious? I'm not calling out your opinion, it just sounds like you had the wrong idea about what he did.
