    He ran away from his home because of peaceful protests. It belongs to the protesters.

    LMFAO. Nazi miller got scared from people protesting against him that he now lives on a base because he can’t defend his own domestic domicile.

    Thats right Americans. Under his logic his house and everyone else that can’t defend their homes are yours to take.

    Guys like this deserve to have their jaw bones smashed into a thousand pieces and wired shut for life.

    His parents did him no justice by the way they raised this sack of shit. What a pathetic excuse for a human being.

    This guy has some balls talking about defending anything.

      The protests were mainly writing with chalk on the sidewalk outside.

      And don’t blame his parents, the rest of his family seem to be decent human beings. Parents have less control over how their kids turn out than most people believe. It’s all on him.

      I know right. By his logic I should be able to walk over to my neighbors house, pummel her and take her stuff because she’s weaker.

      Denmark didn’t need to defend Greenland because it had the world’s most powerful ally defending it for them. I mean WTF?

    In an administration stuffed to the gills with dangerous lunatics, Miller stands out on both counts.

    He’s clearly a full-blown psychopath, and an existential threat to the US and the world. He doesn’t just need to be removed from power - he needs to be committed.

          Though you’re correct, Merriam Webster makes it seem that “hung” is fine here too.

              What if it was so big that imthe first erection took far too much blood from his body and he was rushed to the hospital and then they made his wife sign off on cutting it off to save him and because of the blood bag issue they can’t give him meds so he is feeling and seeing everything going on in horror as he slips in and out of consciousness?

              In the end, sadly, he didn’t make it.

              This would be, like, an actual djinn and they revel in the fact that they faked out, like, 3 or more times for the same gag?

            In this context ‘hung’ could also be an adjective indicating he has a gigantic dong. So I really think we should be sticklers about hanged vs hung here.

              I got banned from r/politics for replying to someone saying that Eric Swallwell should be hung. Apparently, saying something around the lines of “anybody with balls of steel must also be hung” was “inciting violence”.

              Meanwhile, the guy actually saying he should actually be murdered wasn’t seen a problem.

            I’ve always thought hanged was the correct term for past tense of hanging humans and hung was correct for other situations

              “Hanged” is an obsolete usage that persisted in legal contexts because people who practice law tend to be pedantic bores. It goes back to the 1500s. “Hung” is first attested a century later.

              It’s one of the uncommon cases where an originally weak English verb (hang/hanged) morphed into a strong verb (hang/hung) in later usage.

            Remember that Noah Webster is responsible for deriving American from English. Convince me he didn’t write a dictionary only to lend an air of legitimacy to his lunacy.

    The moment Demon Miller got on CNN or whatever and said to the host he was belittling “We live in the real world where what matters is strength”, every single one of our allies should have started drafting and updating plans on how to kill American soldiers and wage war against the US.

    I believe that was one of the most foreboding statements that has come out of the administration so far. A blatant admission that they do not care about laws or ethics, only strength of arms.

    There are millions of Americans living and working abroad.

    Any invasion by America of a NATO member means all of a sudden we have a few million hostages.

      I think you mean a few million outspoken critics of the US. US citizens abroad are often well educated and critical of US domestic and international politics and policies.

      A more effective response would be to give them microphones and platforms upon which to express their views.

        It’s true. In half a decade here, I don’t think I’ve met a single Brit who finds America as revolting as I do. They do some creditable work, but the quality of their polemic is limited by a want of familiarity.

    My money is on the american military getting absolutely fucked by a bunch of people on dogsleds and white camo. They couldn’t deal with a bunch of people in a forrest, nor a bunch of people in a desert. What makes them think they’ll have any success in a snowy hellscape where the wrong kind of clothes will kill you?

      I’m going to guess the thought is that there aren’t very many people there and they don’t care if any of those people survive. In fact, it might be easier for them if most of them did not.

      Which is to say, why send humans to do a bomb’s job?

    Again, the only response here is to demand clarification so that trade with America will resume.
