In Berwyn IL, you can’t mace someone who comes up to your door unless you reasonably believe they are about to harm you. However, the state usually only prosecutes really clear-cut and well-evidenced crimes, and usually not when they’re done by fascists. That’s why the responding cops just made him return her phone. Fuentes could certainly argue that he was in reasonable fear of harm, and Rose could argue that she was just there for a friendly discussion.
none of this actually describes what Nick Fuentes was doing but it’s not as simple as castle vs stand your ground. important to know if you own a gun or plan on taking a trip to Berwyn
A person is justified in the use of force against another when and to the extent that he reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to prevent or terminate such other’s unlawful entry into or attack upon a dwelling.
Illinois also has a (roundabout) home defense exception in 720 ILCS 5/7-1 but I’m not sure if it’s argued this way in court. Residential burglary is a “forcible felony”
A person is justified in the use of force against another when and to the extent that he reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to defend himself or another against such other’s imminent use of unlawful force. However, he is justified in the use of force which is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm only if he reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or another, or the commission of a forcible felony.
note that this also does not impose a duty to retreat. You can use (non-deadly) force whenever it’s necessary to defend yourself or someone else. Don’t trust legal blogspam read the law yourself
lol he’s a 20 minute drive from me

Not all races have been reported yet but Republicans have won the senate and it really looks like they’re going to get a majority in the house as well.
I don’t recall this being about sexual abuse, but you can google “On Alienation” which was written by a former member in my city.
I do think it’s true that all American orgs of a certain size have SA problems. However, that is a terrible indictment of the current state of the American left and not a statement that it’s OK. These problems are more than just bad apples. I suspect there’s something about cadre orgs that enables abuse of members. A substantial reason I left Socialist Alternative was their unserious response to multiple sexual assault scandals (one of which was highly publicized and resulted in an international split), which was hampered by their highly centralized leadership. I hope this criticism shows that I’m not a PSL specific wrecker.
looks like the Twitter advertisers have found a new home lol
well sometimes you can’t tell from the ingredients e.g. bone char sugar, cysteine from feathers instead of bacteria or synthetic. But those are edge cases
What do you mean soy sauce isn’t vegan? Ingredients water, soybeans, wheat, salt.
The Fee Foam cocktail foam is legitimately much less hassle than egg whites. I’m vegan so I don’t know if it tastes better (both are bad in large amounts) but I hear that it’s caught on at bars.
yeah it sucks. I want to get out of apartments but I’m dreading having to participate in the housing market
Thanks. This is the most thorough treatment I’ve seen of higher races leading to lower ballot access.
gross. honestly I’ve had a couple first dates that ended in sex and at least for straight men it’s just not good bc of power dynamics. My armchair psychoanalysis is that these men either (a) are just legitimately fucked in the head and could still get their rocks off with a partner who is still background worried for her physical safety (b) don’t actually want what they want, and that’s why they’re half-assing the whole dating app thing. So they can say they put themselves out there but they don’t have to be actually vulnerable - self-destructive behavior except they’re doing it by being actively shitty to women
Don’t ask for a date “sometime”, give it a time frame like “this week”. Short conversations are perfectly fine and lead to more than 1/3rd of your dates showing up.
an American presidential election? Goku isn’t a citizen but because the Dems don’t give a shit about DACA recipients Superman probably isn’t either. So it’s a tossup

Met my gf on Hinge. 5 free likes a day was plenty, I “liked” only people I legitimately was interested in going on a date with and sent them a message with the like. If they liked me back they’d usually send their own message (70%? more often than not) and I’d pitch a casual coffee date within a few messages. If they just “liked” me without responding I wouldn’t double-text. If people aren’t responding to you, I think there’s probably something wrong with your messages. E.g. if you are sending like “hi”, “what’s up?”, etc, people aren’t gonna respond. If you message first (especially if you are masc) you gotta be prepared to carry the conversation and also show that you’ve looked at their profile. There may also be something wrong with your profile. Maybe you have a disqualifying quality, like being a communist, that people only notice after matching with you. If so I would suggest to make possible deal-breakers and red flags more obvious in your profile. Cuts down on the useless matches and makes your profile more interesting to the ones you’re interested in.
You’ve probably already noticed this but in my experience Hinge skewed conservative. Pity since it’s the best dating app tech-wise.
great quote, thanks. I think this is also compatible with Ads Don’t Work That Way which argues that rather than psychically manipulating consumers to crave stuff, ads just build social consensus (you know that other people have seen the ad).
yeah the state of plant milk is unfortunate. I buy almond milk since that’s (surprisingly) what’s cheapest in bulk near me, and I don’t think it’s good enough to drink straight. Only for cooking and in coffee
They’d charge us for our actual crimes. You are doing those right? Not just posting?
The funny thing is McFerran was a trump nominee a few years back. I hate the NLRB so much bring back real unions
