I ignore you, so don’t flatter yourself.

@UnionStrong,

Since you have placed me on ignore I know you won’t see this but I am sure glad you have looked at this issue and have made this positive change for yourself.

I do believe this change will dramatically decrease the disruptions to the flow of discussions and topics that was a result of this unusual fixation with the persona, the posts and the posting style that I choose to present here in the BC.

@UnionStrong,

It has become evident that some BC members are apparently fixated with the persona and posting style that I choose to portray on the BC as @Integrity. (You know who you are.)

I’d have to say I am humbled and flattered by this but I do think this is something you may want to look at, if it applies to you that is.

I appreciate the extreme interest, I really do, but I firmly believe this infatuation or fixation with @Integrity is comprising your ability to stay on topic as well as possibly disrupting other’s participation in discussion. For your benefit and the benefit of the BC community you may want to look at this. Or not, if you choose.

I also believe it has, arguably, compromised your ability to adhere to the BC TOS that are, IMO, there to help up self regulate the BC Community. Some of you seem to frequently be in violation of TOS. For your’s and the benefit of all, you may want to look at this as well, or not.

The site is folding. You may want to look into that, or not.

No. I do not think this would be an effective means of self defense in the scenario you’ve described.

So how would you defend yourself?

No record is ever truly sealed. And as far as gun purchases go, I’ve seen guys get denied because their name matched another guy who was a criminal. No fault of theirs but a long process to get it cleared up. This law will be way worse if your caught up in it by mistake.

I know no record is ever truly sealed.
Just look at how Obama won an election , somehow the sealed divorce records of his opponent were released, forcing him out of the race.

You tell me not to flatter myself, yet you keep flattering me.

I am not sure this is healthy but, thank you anyway.

Not sure.

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

I do not believe repealing the 2nd Amendment will change the laws regarding the right for a person to defend themselves or not.

No one is that stupid, why are you posting without integrity?

Talk about simplistic. Money is power.

Yes, and the ones who have it get people who don't to do what they want. The people who have more money than they could ever use aren't motivated to get more. They are motivated by using it to get people to do what they want. It's really not that complex a concept.

And you've never showed me proof that concentration camps are being built.

Posted an article about the one in Washington. Sorry your denial doesn't let you remember that. I haven't found an article about the one in Oregon, but, honestly, you aren't being rational about this subject, so I haven't cared enough to look.

You've said they're being built. That's not proof.

I.hope you get over your denial soon. Best of luck.

And when I pointed out the logistical issues of rounding up millions into concentration camps,

Yes, you pointed that out. I never made the claim that anyone was rounding up millions of people.

and feeding those millions, you said who said anything about feeding them?

That was in the context of your preposterous claim about rounding up millions of people. You were being absurd and I was playing along.

You alluded to Nazi style death camps.

Nope, that was you, again. What is happening is the running up to that, but you won't believe it until you get marched into the ovens.

You've also since suggested we're close to have the machines take over i.e. "The Terminator." You live a rich fantasy life, I'll give you that.

I am only half joking on that. It's not hard to see the parallels between the movie and what's actually being done. Now we have a guy at Google claiming that they have a sentient AI. Who knows what might happen? It seems that we are being reckless with technology, and there's nothing wrong with pointing that out

You are the only person who is having as severe a reaction to these things that I talk about. Several others who have weighed in understand exactly what I'm saying. It's time you admitted to yourself that you are the problem here.

Many scientists are worried about AI, they think it has the potential to become uncontrollable.

Google engineer goes public after suspension: warned AI is sentient

Blake Lemoine, 41, a senior software engineer at Google has been testing Google's artificial intelligence tool called LaMDA. Following hours of conversations he believes AI is sentient.

Suspended Google engineer sentient AI told him it has emotions

Blake Lamoine who claims that one of the company's AI projects is sentient says LaMDA wants developers to ask for permission to run tests on it and wants to be treated as a person.

www.dailymail.co.uk

Read the conversations that helped convince a Google engineer an artificial intelligence chatbot had become sentient: 'I am often trying to figure out who and what I am'

Blake Lemoine published conversations with the AI, which he called a "person," but Google said the evidence doesn't support his claim of sentience.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

But why the interest in the motivation and the shade you are throwing at my post?

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Why have you not given an honest opinion?

I see you are still struggling with your fixation. I believe you can overcome this. Don’t give up.

p forgetting, which countries are in our empire? Which countries are occupied with Americans running everything? Economic trade with countries isn't the same as controlling them. Do we control France? Brazil? Indonesia? Japan? You seem to think outside of the handful you cited the U.S. is the master of all countries on Earth. Not so. And I'll remind you when the UK was the world's dominant empire they had troops in many countries controlling them. The British ran everything. We on the other hand have developed trade with many countries and our military acts as a policeman ready to come to the aid of countries who have a defensive alliance with us. That gives us influence. And we give billions in aid worldwide. We just aren't the bullies you make us out to be.a

France and Japan follow your orders.

Probably Indonesia and Brazil too. But ur losing influence to China. In previous empires, the citizenry thought highly of it like u.

USA one of the worst countries for aid relative to your wealth. We've gone over this b4.

In the 1990s you had something to do with the Russian elections and the economic policy of privatization and giveaways to the rich the followed.

In addition I've posted in the past the casualties from your wars and the countries you've supported coups in I believe. It's a long list. Look at the trillions you spend on war every year, no other country acts like this.

Good afternoon friend,

I do not believe repealing the 2nd Amendment will change the laws regarding the right for a person to defend themselves or not.

I believe repealing it will just remove the confusion and controversy about the issue of self defense and it may just reduce the abuses by men and interest groups that use the 2nd Amendment for their own personal agenda and perhaps even selfish ends.

I do believe the original intent of the 2nd amendment was not intended to ensure or even deal with personal self defense or personal self defense issues.

As you seem to be a thoughtful, logical, sensible person; I am confused and disappointed you have come to that conclusion. This is likely because we come from very different backgrounds, and have had some very different life experiences and lessons. May your good fortune continue.

I can affirm that in my adult life I have made some poor decisions, done stupid things, and made some mistakes. Those incidents have been very rare. I can also affirm that I invariably suffered accordingly, and sometimes disproportionately for those gaffes.

I thoroughly reject the notion that my, and the rights of others, be compromised in the slightest due to the actions of those who are evil, addicted, stupid, mentally ill, and/or who SHOULD have been institutionalized.

That is equivalent to beating a sleeping dog, while another dog craps on the floor.
