@AmberLakeFarm @MattSorrell3 @Brash_1 @badbake_offgrid @TimbosBack3 My best advice to not getting snowed in. Shovel or tractor often. Open your doors and use your broom to sweep the way every hour. Keeps it from building up to a wall against your door.
English
Up to 30” of snow! We’re southerners not yankees. We’re not used to that!
How do y’all do it? @MattSorrell3 @Brash_1 @badbake_offgrid @TimbosBack3

@AmberLakeFarm @MattSorrell3 @Brash_1 @badbake_offgrid @TimbosBack3 Have plenty of beer and chili fixings on hand.

@RealJohnDios oh, hey, a sensible take! i thought only @MattSorrell3 was allowed to make those!
English
I don't really like any American getting shot by cops. It's a very small comfort that they deserved it or were my political enemy. But the left has gotten uppity and probably is gonna need a few bloody noses to learn their lesson. We should probably invest in non-lethal weapons.
English
@rabcyr_alt @MattSorrell3 Not to pump him up too much but he is profoundly consistent with his reasonable takes
English
@rabcyr_alt @BarkTwain @scratchyjohnson I think it's useful to remember that as frustrated as you are with the "other" side, they're that frustrated with you.
A little too eager to see the other side "reap".
Both need to tone down the rhetoric.
Neither calling ICE nazis nor cheering on raids is helpful.
English
@BarkTwain @MattSorrell3 @scratchyjohnson it’s mostly just internet irony poisoning. i’ve seen it across the political spectrum.
English
Say what you want, but a a lot of black parents will tell you they have to have "the talk" with their sons.
Because they want them to stay alive.
Maybe liberal white women also need "the talk".

"I will not comply with unlawful orders!" is an incredibly privileged POV. I guess they can talk about how right you were at your funeral. Obey orders (lawful or not) from LEO. Get out of the situation alive. Get a lawyer. Sort it out later. Can't sort it out if you're dead
English
@rabcyr_alt Exactly.
Civil disobedience is a thing. Thats fine.
Know what you're getting into.
Dont present a threat.
The cops will drag you away.
You'll get an appearance ticket that'll get thrown out. You'll also get on the news and make your point.
This was not that.
English
@MattSorrell3 different levels of disobeying law enforcement, as well. if you’re gonna block the road with your vehicle, do that, then turn it off and take the key out.
don’t leave it running with your foot on the brake so that when LE shows up you panic and do something stupid.

This incident is going to be discussed every which way over the coming days. No matter the outcome, what you think of the situation, or your political views, I am begging you people, for your own safety:
English
@MattSorrell3 You have the best take on all of this
English
@rabcyr_alt @PatrickHeizer Yeah, its gotten a little out of control.
Still surprisingly civil though. I guess thats good.
English
@MattSorrell3 @PatrickHeizer yeah well scrolling through my mentions this morning you jinxed it.
i guess still relatively rational, though. might have to mute this. now more than twice the views.
English
I would tell my wife and daughters to "flee immediately, no hesitation" if a masked man approached their vehicle and tried to open the doors.
English
@MattSorrell3 Some of this is due to the delusional propaganda women have been fed about their “power” and their capacities being equal to men.
No, you are not as strong and violent as a man. The man is going to win every single time.

As a general rule, when a police officer in riot gear tells you to do something, it is in your immediate best interest to do that thing.
English
@Oroborous2 @BarkTwain Maybe you're right, time will tell.
I dont think thats going to be the case though.
English
@Oroborous2 I get what you're saying, and I don't like a lot of what ICE is doing.
But what you're suggesting is something approaching an insurgency, and I don't think we are anywhere close to that yet.
I think a lot of these people are pawns radicalized by social media content. Very sad.
English
@MattSorrell3 Everyone has a tipping point. At what point, for you, would it breach "legitimate law enforcement" into intolerable, violent tyranny?
I'm not saying we're there, but at SOME point, the obedience is to arbitrary detention, false detention, corporal punishment...
It happens.
English
@scratchyjohnson It's sad.
Radicalized by TikTok and I think you are unfortunately right that some of those at the top hoped this would be the outcome.
English
@MattSorrell3 Its interesting too see the amount of people who dont understand that the professional Left is funneling women into this situation for these exact optics
English
@Oroborous2 What am I ignoring?
Yes, there is larger context. Absolutely.
But the time to address that is during elections. Not in the street.
Peaceful protest of course, but getting into a confrontation with law enforcement is going to end badly.
English
@MattSorrell3 You're ignoring salient political realities for whatever reason. This didn't happen in a vaccuum or in the course of standard law enforcement.
Yes, you're right.
It doesn't matter now. The toothpaste has left the tube and Miller got the confrontation he wanted.
English
@AmberLakeFarm This is similar to my wife's POV.
These people have no family bc "over population" and do not have God in their life.
Whatever cause then becomes their reason for living.
Happens both ways, but I think more so on the left.
Very sad.
English
People who feel lost with no meaning in their lives seem to get a weird fulfillment from being a protestor, fighting “the man,” raging against the machine.
The problem, as I see it, they have bought into the “left vs right” dichotomy and don’t see that we are all on the same side fighting corporate control and enslavement.
I wonder if they see it all like a video game where at the point of “Game Over” for them, they think it will all reset and they will be alive again ready for the next game?
Delusional?
English
@HusbandTrad Could you tell my wife that I was totally correct?
Would be the first time that's happened in 17 years of marriage, 😅
English
Maybe no one had murderous intent.
Maybe 2 people in a dynamic situation both panicked.
Don't put yourself in a situation
- Do not interfere w/ law enforcement
- Comply w/ instructions
- The situ was created by gov't not enforcing the law for 30 yrs. They put both in harms way
Matt@MattSorrell3
Any one who has ever been a part of something with a lot of moving parts in a close quarters, fast-paced environment (military deployment, major construction project, etc.) knows that it's a matter of time before something very bad happens, especially with humans involved.
English
@Gen_Ben_Mac It's really incredible.
How do you even have a conversation with them? Their brains are just fried.
