Yes, according to the gun lobby pushing behind the scene. They claimed that - 'Guns do not kill people, people kill people'. In other words it also is applicable to weapon sales. Weapons, like bombs, do not kill people, but selling them to other Governments means other Governments are using them to kill peope and is not their fault. It is just killing other country's people I should say. So weapons are safer than TikTok, very safe. So can sell weapons to everyone and every terrorist who wants to buy them, but cannot allow TikTok to exist. Otherwise banning guns must also mean banning weapon sales as well. Logical isn't it? Just wonder whether weapon sales is itself a crime against humanity?
You see, when guns are now used more and more in the USA to kill their own people, with almost four shootings a day resulting in 10 deaths a day from gun shootings in the USA, the gun lobby still treats the deaths as collateral damage. And the Government, after every new President, and after each and every shooting, talks about new legislation to manage gun control, undoubtedly achieving nothing but spouting just hot air. The Government cannot ban guns, but wants to ban TikTok which they see as more dangerous than guns. Stupidity has no cure has been taken to the extreme.
Now the USA is nitpicking on irrelevent issues just to antagonise China. After balloongate, now it is policegate, with the accusation that China is running a police network in the USA. I wonder when they will come out with a Chinese military base in the USA? Just a matter of time! China's policemen better stop visiting the USA, otherwise may be hauled up for having a policeman card on them and being accused of being involved in policegate.
Now also claiming that the power pack used by the Chinese weather balloon is capable of powering highly sophisticated listening equipment. What does that signify? Nothing more than telling us that the Chinese are capable of producing much more advance power systems to boost their communication with the ground. And that is the only national security risk that they managed to find after two months of combing through the balloon debris?
How about spending so many years and still unable to prove anything about Huawei being a national security threat to the USA after tearing apart its 5G equipment looking for bugs. Unable to come to a conclusion or find any evidence, the USA and its doggies are pulling down all the equipments to destroy the evidence to prove that no such security threats ever existed. And they are paying a heavy price to get competitors to install new equipment and having to pay Huawei for using its propriety rights, which Huawei holds. Stupidity has no cure and it is the taxpayers that are footing the bill and suffering the inconveniences and consequences.

Sometimes it boggles the mind that people in USA, especially the mentally derained people who went hunting humans, have been reported to be owning many guns, not just one, and carrying them around during their shooting spree.
ReplyDeleteImagine the amount of money the gun manufacturing lobbies are making, not just selling guns all over the world for countries to fight one another but also domestically. We can understand how profitable it is for them, just with their campaign contributions and contributions to senators, knowing their interest has been well looked after. President after President are playing the gun control game very well cheorographed and dancing in step with the gun lobbies. It is a win win situation for both.
During the Black Lives Matter protest, people were brandishing their guns to protect their properties. I think in times of war, they will be expected to be fighting to the last man for the country with all the guns around, and the USA do not have to issue guns to civilians just like the Ukrainians expecting their civilians to fight the Russians. Without training, I think it is more like asking them to commit suicide fighting against trained Russian soldiers. Did the ICC investigate this war crime, or did they pretend to sleep with open eyes in the right place and at the right time?
MintPress News reports that TikTok has dozens of ex-U.S. State Department officials working in key positions. The company has been recruiting former State Department officials for some time to run its operations, with many more individuals with backgrounds in the FBI, CIA and other departments of the national security state also holding influential posts at the social media giant. The article suggests that while American politicians demand the app be banned on national security grounds, TikTok may already be much closer to Washington than it is to Beijing.

By planting the release of selected Pentagon leaks, the purpose is to tighten the screws on social media using this as an excuse to ban more avenues available to social media truth sayers.
ReplyDeleteGuns are as sacrosanct as Democrazy™ & Freedom™ to these Muricunts.
ReplyDeleteLet them shoot each other up.
If the Muricunt society breaks down to anarchy, let them be. No UN peace keeping force. They see any peace keeping force as a FOREIGN invasion force, even if its under UN. Let them shoot each other up.
