Generally no. Bulletproof glass is thick as hell and requires extensive modification to the door, plus it often precludes being able to roll the window down.

Some might opt for kevlar panelling in the door. Anything heavier goes back to “extensive modification” and turns an $80k cruiser into a $400k cruiser.

They buy MRAPs from the DoD on the cheap for armored vehicles.

I seem to recall one of their butthurt targets back in 2024 basically saying “just wait until we have control of the FBI, we’re gonna cook your ass.”

Man, I thought that was hubris, counting their chickens before they hatched.

I think you might be a bit confused with how federation works. Just because you made an account on Lemmy.ca doesn’t mean everything you see is Canada-centric.

There’s a decade or five in between “barely postgraduate” and “belongs in an assisted living facility.”

I want people in charge of significant government functions to have significant lived knowledge and experience in the field.

IDF would shit their pants if they had to face actual modern warfighters. Basically all of their victories are against malfunctional ME militaries and irregular fighters, to say nothing about the base atrocities they are committing against defenseless people.

Clearly a stone.

Good. Maybe if Russia starts to have rolling blackouts we’ll have to hear from you less.

Man I miss 2012 (or whenever it was) and the “Ron Paul will make anime real” memes.

That is also why he wants an ICBM defense mesh, because realistically that’s the only chance Europe has to cripple us in a fight.

They don’t fuck with armed conservatives. Armed leftists get bombed from helicopters and cut down with belt-fed machine guns.

Every despotic regime has a program to inform on your neighbors. Even in our tech-laden world, it’s probably one of the most effective means of identifying dissidents.

Some kaiju-sized demon could cleave Tampa, Florida in half with a flaming sword of the damned and all twitter would have to say about it is “would.”

A lot of armored vehicles are straight up deathtraps if they sink underwater. Very tight quarters, very limited ways out that are often locked down. It’s hardly impossible for this to be an accident.

I started Monster Hunter with 4U on the 3DS. After World, Rise, and now Wilds, I have a hard time justifying crumpling my hands into a pretzel to play the old games on portable. The movesets are comparatively barebones, and there’s a lot of tedium and jank that the new games stripped away. Veterans will tell you that’s the real Monster Hunter and the new games are infantilized arcade games, but whatever. I play games to have fun, not bang my head against a wall.

They’re going to try and ruin this journalist for embarrassing them, that’s what will happen.

Of course, this will be after he’s called all of his predecessors fucking morons for not doing things like he does.

He’s angry that he can’t claim the win, nothing more or less. Who knew geopolitics could be so difficult? And like a child who can’t comprehend something, he will pivot his attention to something else entirely and pretend this episode never happened.

Matthew Crooks.

People in the crowd died. There’s pictures of Crooks’s head split open from rifle fire. It wasn’t fake. Just because it was very, very convenient for Trump doesn’t mean it was fake.

What are the odds that the orders to target Palestine protesters as “terrorist sympathisers” comes directly from AIPAC and by extension Israeli intelligence?

Words do have meaning, they just want to be the ones who decide what they mean any given day.

And this dictionary change means “We want a casus belli to begin a military invasion of Mexico.” Literally throwing the Iraq playbook at it.
