They literally had their supporters burn drop-off ballot boxes and destroy ballots. They literally intimidated other voters. They harassed poll workers and volunteers whose entire purpose is to ensure everyone who is eligible to vote has everything they need in order to do so. Yet no one is batting a fucking eye. THESE FUCKERS STOLE THE ELECTION. 15 million less votes than what Biden got and Trump got about the same as he did when he ran before. This stinks of interference.

🙄 Proceeds to talk in some weird third-person adjacent way of referring to themselves. Shut up dude.

That is such a bullshit citation of Castle Doctrine. You are borderline retarded for suggesting the idea even has merit.

Quit acting so high and mighty. You aren’t special.

Oh for fucks sake. Get off your high horse.

No, I just can tell when someone has given up on their field of work. You sound like you’ve given up. Quit your job.

Tesla’s suck dude. Shut up.

Oh shut up. You asked for an answer to how it would be paid for and how to implement. You keep moving the goalposts. Shut the fuck up.

You’re making it phonetically difficult to understand what you are trying to say. It’s stupid.

You are really just making excuses to maintain the same short-sighted status quo that has you so frustrated. The solution is offering education to those voters you are so vehemently concerned about. The money comes from managing existing budgets better and making cuts to public programs that are wasteful. You raise funds by implementing bonds and taxes. Voters will get the fuck over taxes being raised if they actually see some benefit from it. Bullshitting your way with the same tired-ass excuses just shows you should quit your job and let someone, who actually cares, do it.

I’m not saying it’s pointless but uh…https://www.oxfam.org/en/press-releases/billionaires-emit-more-carbon-pollution-90-minutes-average-person-does-lifetime

Someone else said it, contact Adult Protective Services. APS is meant for people like you.

What evidence do you have that it would be cost-ineffective to pipe natural gas to only businesses? The only thing they do these days when someone opts out of using natural gas is turn off the valve at the street. The gas still flows to other businesses and neighbors. It doesn’t matter what Berkeley does because Oakland, Richmond, Hayward and every other town or city around Berkeley is not going to ban the use of natural gas. It’s a non-starter. It’s pointless to do.

The mommy knows best attitude that this law comes from is why Berkeley is so frequently made fun of in so many places. You guys have your heads so far up the darkest depths that you can’t see that this doesn’t offer any sort of meaningful change in the overall problem with climate change. 3% reduction in methane emissions is nothing when every other city and town in the state is still burning gas for heating and cooking. You may as well throw shovelfuls of sand on a raging inferno. Not saying you shouldn’t do anything but this is just dumb.

Propane doesn’t offer the benefits you seem to think it does. It’s more expensive and the distribution system for it likely has as many issues as the natural gas does. Going after natural gas distribution while we still have larger and more significant sources of emissions is a minuscule bandage solution at best. At worst it solves a very minor source of emissions problems at a major cost in both money and convenience.

If it was at a Kill Tony show or a comedy show then it would literally just be someone making dumb jokes. At a political rally it takes on a whole different meaning. It’s leading the audience to think a certain way. Not everyone at those rally’s is actually paying attention to anything other than big talking points. Saying a whole island of people are garbage is a pretty leading thing to say. It leads the audience to feel their racism is confirmed.

This is the biggest thing for me. If it was at a Kill Tony show or a comedy show then it would literally just be someone making dumb jokes. At a political rally it takes on a whole different meaning.

Saying a whole island of people are garbage is a pretty leading thing to say. It leads the audience to feel their racism is confirmed.

Seriously, its like you’ve never played Sim City or Cities Skylines. If you are going to rezone or redesign districts and remove parking then you need to, like everyone else is saying, maximize public transit and walkability. Without doing that you are just creating an urban desert.
