Almost every review that I’ve seen recently says that it was bad at launch, but it’s good now.

Before the attack they might have to Scandinavian look for battleships.

No thanks. I’ve already got a sparrow on my team.

Thanks, that’s really good to know.

I personally respect your patriotism and love for your wonderful country 🇨🇦 (I’m not Canadian, but there’s a lot to love there). The people of Canada should not be afraid to fly their own flag.

Same here, they couldn’t think of their own gang sign so they had to use an OK symbol…kinda pathetic.

Oh, I was fast…you pretend not to see, or use peripheral vision, then snap it in there before they know what’s what.

Yes, it is okay and is still used as a religious symbol. My mother in law follows Buddhism and some of her statues have the symbol on it. She doesn’t eat meat, doesn’t kill bugs (intentionally), believes in non violence and watches pbs kids and other family friendly shows. Like this picture though, the angle on her statues are not the same and there is no hate intended in her prayers.

Edit: Part two to your post: If it was turned from a symbol of peace to a symbol of hate, in time it could return to a symbol of peace again if people chose to believe in it. For now they see it as a symbol of hate, and that’s completely understandable.

They use them in movies and history books frequently. Their intent is not to spread hate, it’s to teach anti-hate. Yes, they are okay when their intentions are not racist.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to elaborate further. I hope that clears it up.

No, it’s not time to stop. There’s no hateful intent there. It’s a game for kids. If white supremacists started using the peace sign, or sign language, would we have to stop that too? What if they started saying “love” as a hate word, should I stop telling my family that I love them? No…that’s just foolishness and fear mongering.

So long as you’re not acting like a racist shitbag and your intentions are good, you shouldn’t change your behavior. Some little group’s idea of what hate gestures are will corrupt everything and everyone if you let them win.

If you poke it without them catching your finger, you get to punch them instead.

Id heat takeout/delivery food in the oven before serving it. No germs, hot meal, it was a win win. I haven’t done that since though.

I didn’t say child marriage was normal. Its not common, and illegal in many parts of the United States. Nonetheless, the laws for sexual and marital consent where it’s allowed are there for those who consent, and protect those who don’t. If they made the legal age for marriage 21 or even 24 (when parents are no longer required to support their children, it wouldn’t affect most people in the US who are marrying much later or not at all.

I believe it’s not illegal to have sex between an adult and minor so long as the parents consented. That was the purpose of the ultimatum. If you don’t understand, I can’t help you further.

I’m not sure what makes you believe these laws aren’t in effect all across the world, but they are, and your saying the law is backwards probably means your country’s laws are backwards as well, especially if the law doesn’t exist there. The law was put in place to protect people and families from child predators and well as protecting people who consent, from the law. If you think that’s backwards you’re obviously not American enough to have a shred of intelligence.

Most states have a minimum marriage age for minors with parental consent, ranging from 12-17 years old.

Age of consent wasn’t met, I assume.

Only if you’re very flexible.

Jajaja… no… ;)
