I believe you’re misstating one thing if I remember the law last time I read it: It is a felony to knowingly sell a firearm to prohibited persons.

If you aren’t bound to the FFL requirements you are not obligated to ask if the person is in anyway prohibited from buying a firearm, and what you don’t know or ask keeps you free from jeopardy.

Oil and gas collapsed because of reduced demand from the pandemic and Putin refusing to cut production so he could tank US oil. Oil isnt likely to collapse again anytime soon.

A war can also solve another problem China has: too many men and too few women. War deaths will not only reduce the man to female ratio, but as in past Chinese wars soldiers will bring home war “brides”.

Not enough

Alternative is you show empathy for the civilians and you go do the difficult task of eradicating the terrorists with soldiers on the ground. More Israeli soldiers die, for sure, but a whole lot less civilians and children die and the world empathizes with your difficulty, maybe even the Palestinian people.

But unfortunately the current Israeli government hasn’t been treating the Palestinians like humans, and isn’t about to start.

I won’t either, and I think most decent people wouldn’t. But that doesn’t mean you have to side with Neten-yahoo’s Israel either.

My heart is heavy for the Palestinian civilians that are being absolutely massacred now. They aren’t allowed to leave the area, they did nothing wrong and Israel says, after the fact, “some bad guys might have been hiding in your building and needed to die. We know lots of innocent men, women and children were there too, but we don’t want our soldiers to be in harms way so instead of coming in on foot, we’re going to bomb the entire building and say “sorry, not sorry” for all the dead babies afterwards.” Repeat x 1000

Imagine a building with 3 terrorist holding 10 hostages as human shields and 50 more innocents locked in the building with them. The police then say, “yeah, we have them surrounded and they can’t get away. We don’t want to let the customers out because one of them might be a terrorist in disguise, and we don’t want to negotiate, and if we send some swat in they might get shot, so we’re going to bomb the whole building and be done with it. Sorry for the loses but we need to get those bad guys.” That’s what Israel is doing now, unsympathetically. They show just as little regard for civilians as Hamas.

Scapegoat??? Maybe look up that term means. He’s the cause of much of the shit and continues to be. He spews hate and lies, so much that a large percentage of the population actually doubts the 2020 results.

And what if just a few more people had went along with him? What if Pence threw out the votes? What if Barr went along with his story that the election was stolen? What if the rioters had gotten to the Representatives on Jan 6th? Might that gallows have been used? How many more would have went along with the lie just to avoid being caught up in violence?

The world and the US have a lot of problems completely unrelated to Trump, but he made none of the problems better, many worse and created some of its worst unlike any other president in history.

There are so many answers to this but the most egregious of all is trying to overthrow the democratically elected government through any and all means. Shouldn’t be hard to understand.

Both sides can be, and have been, terrible.

For those unaware bear spray also has a range of up to 50ft. It’s not only good for bears… it’s a much better alternative to mace since it’s much more potent and effective at range.

No need to be so savage… he’s just a kid!

And who wants to turn the light on in the middle of the night.

It only takes one successful nuke to produce a world of regret, vastly worse than anything experienced to date.

Not to ask a possibly silly question but I haven’t seen these questions asked and I don’t know your network experience. You’ve supplied the actual network address of your pihole machine and not the 192.168.1.250 address shown, right? And you’ve set your pihole server up to have a static ip address as well, correct? You don’t want it assigned dynamically and therefore randomly everytime it renews its lease.

If the ip address is statically assigned - either hard-coded as static on the machine or at least being statically assigned on your router via its mac address - then setting the dns server on your router should work. I would however assign 2nd and 3rd dns servers as Google dns or cloud flare ip addresses in case your pihole server is ever down. (1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8 or some of the others). If that’s all confirmed and your machines are not receiving your configured dns settings from the router, it’s possible (seems unlikely) the spectrum supplied router is ignoring the settings and assigning their dns servers. If so, buy your own router and put it between your home network and the spectrum hardware. Then you have control and it doesn’t matter what their hardware does. You’ll just set yours up on a different subnet - 192.168.x where x doesn’t match the same value as the spectrum network - and you should be good to go.

Good luck!
