I think it’s more common in Europe since those are large targets for terrorism. Plus if you have a distinct “armed police” they are more likely to be heavily armed.
Also, I think most police outside of major cities in the USA all have ARs in their patrol cars now. I remember when my cop buddy was complaining about five years ago when they took his car shotgun and gave him an AR instead.

1·2 months agoThey didn’t just bring their work phone, they admitted to an immigration officer they planned on performing a job in the United States. Also, other countries will detain you pending deportation as well. The US is unique because of the number of deportations and the speed they are building new facilities to deport people.

Depends on your job, any gov job is now an auto-disqualifying him for having a felony. International travel is also a lot harder now if he has a felony.

Today I Learned•TIL that reading scores have plummeted in school districts around the U.S.English
3·2 months agoThey don’t take the test until grade 4, so repeating grade 3 does not impact funding being student population.
They got bailed out by the state, along with delayed pensions, and shifting financial burdens from the city to the state that had been previously moved under Governor Cuomo.
Also, no one on the flights has confirmed Hantavirus either. The Flight Attendant is still an unknown but in testing.
I don’t think a lot of men are insecure about 5’4. I think it’s more the 5’7 to 5’11 guys that are insecure. Better to be abnormally short than average.

11·3 months agoThe US also supports every country around Israel with some form of aid. Meaning you aren’t just getting economic sanctions but major funding pulled.
$245 million to Egypt, $496 million to Lebanon, $1.82 Billion to Jordan. You get the picture.
China is fairly pro-palestine from what I have read, which is weird since I would guess the more legitimate Israel’s claims on Palestine would make their claim over Taiwan more legitimate.
It also doesn’t help there are at least two different totenkopf’s. The older Prussian cavalry badge, which has many variants, and the SS one designed specifically for them.

2·3 months agoFrancis said you can bless everyone all at once, including gay people, at the end of the sermon. Some want to make it a stand alone blessing like those given at weddings. Leo is saying you cannot do that, but can still bless everyone.

Showerthoughts•Few places nowadays is it legal to lay around & do whatever you want outdoors, usually getting cited for loitering or something. Thank goodness for beaches, we're mostly free here.
6·3 months agoIt’s a common mistake since the words are very close, it does not help that many people who loiter also usually litter.

18·3 months agoYou are thinking of littering. Loitering is standing around idle on another person’s property. It’s usually used now adays to move vagrants along but the law has jim crow origins.

Lemmy Shitpost•Why is Greg, Pastor of the Promised End playing guitar???
3·3 months agoCapital P in this instance is I believe referring to the 7 historical american Protestant denominations. The folding chair and strip mall variety are usually offshoots of the historical denomination.
The auto bahn could also be used by Horses and other pack animals. Hitler was still testing the waters and wanted to disguise his infastructure for war as civilian. The auto bahn was very grandiose and fit his grand vision for Germany. All the countries had different rail gauges, so German rail was not as effective for moving into other countries like road infrastructure was.
Probably a combo of profiteering and a low number of applicants.
