Questions: Society & Politics

Now British bases have been bombed, and mass shootings caused by victims.

Over the many years, while our fire/rescue departments and EMS services were crumbling, I was dumbfounded as to why our law enforcement partners were viewed in a much better light than our other first responders.

Just recently in my state, for example, I have been placing huge pressure on our state's politicans to classify assaults against EMS and firefighters as a felony, instead of a misdemeanor. In 2021, my state passed the Back the Blue Act which made assaults against law enforcement an automatic felony, but they left out other first responders. Upon reading the amended law, EMS and firefighters were listed in the preexisting assault legislation before it was amended, but they chose to only focus on law enforcement. This in and of itself is a prime indicator that other first responders are excluded in policymaking initiatives. Finally, as we are only one of ten states that do not have felony assault charges for harming EMS and firefighters, our lawmakers are making steps to enhance these charges.

As the years progressed, our fire and emergency services were crumbling more and more, to the point that now it is a crisis. My former paramedic and EMT coworkers always stated they felt unheard and unappreciated many years back. These were the most cynical, miserable, pessimistic people I had ever worked with. That should have been a tall tell red flag alone.

I have a theory:

I believe the leftists were trying to defund law enforcement due to anarchy. I, however, also believe the conservative right politicians supported our law enforcement specifically because they are the armed security detail for them when the shit hits the fan and to enact their police state agenda. Otherwise, any care for our first responders by our politicians are minimal.

Israel attacked Iran, killed a lot of top leadership and their religious leader. making this Islam vs Judism more than Iran vs Israel. Israel got the US involved in war. Israel is trying false flag events to get US to nuke Iran or invade Iran. So, if Israel can't get US to Invade or use Nuke against Iran they failed to get New Leadership in Iran and Nuclear program dismantled. Iran is pissed and payback is a Bitch. Iran is unloading on Israel now with 100% ballistic missiles striking Israel. Iran won't stop until they are out of Missiles. So, new leader for Iran is open to Nuclear Missiles. It would take one year or two years to make one if they try. So when Iran launches nuclear missile at Israel , how will you take it?

I never had anyone have my back, growing up, and i recognized that my lack of allies meant I'd be seen as an easy target, so I got really big, and I'd never fight fair.

For instance, one kid started a fight with me and threw a few punches, I smashed my elbow into his jaw as hard as I could and threw him down. As he got up, I lifted my right leg up and stomped his face onto the wood floor as hard as I could, forcing him to lay there.

Needless to say, nobody put their hands on me again for quite a while when they saw that. I did this because I felt if I can't protect myself with numbers, if I engage in such cruel methods of self defense which leave the opponent hurt so much worse than me, people will be too afraid of me to try that again.

Medication I had to take to survive also made my fingernails grow very fast, I used this to my advantage. For instance, one girl tried to cut the line to sign out for the bathroom. She grabbed the pen, I sank my nails deep into her hand and slid them down, forming a gash in her hand. This made her let go and recoil, calling me insane as she observed her bleeding hand.

I hated this girl all my life, she had a big mouth and thought she could screw with me because she was tall, this incident reminded her that while she's 6'1", she weighed well under 100 pounds and I was already 180 pounds and lean at that point.

I did this because I believed i could never let anyone have even the tiniest little inch, or others will see it and think I'm an easy target cause I had no friends. She tried to cut me in front of the class, so I stood up for myself and let it be known to everyone that I will not tolerate even the smallest bit of messing with me.

As for those who tried to physically bully me, I never bothered fighting fair, I'd claw at their eyes with my long, curved fingernails if I was in a headlock. On many cases, I put my nails into their eyes before they let go, horrified at my brutal methods. How did you do?

Yep Iran is launching missiles at will and shut straight down. If they continue to attack Israel , and Trump just declares victory and leaves , who really won?

The only way for US to win now is using ground forces to defeat Iran's army and completely take over Iran , install new leader and even the US will have to pay to rebuild Iran The death toll for American troops would be high. IF US uses Nukes and world will not like it , so US gets blackeye.

Israel can claim win if US invades with ground forces. Other than that Israel has only lost from damage, deaths, and Iran will go into overtime to build a nuclear weapon to hit Israel with in a year or so.
