Re:Why it's so hard to find dumbbells in the US on Tuesday August 25, 2020 @09:15AM (#24270990)
Not true. They have a rotation of weekly stock in the last few months. You just have to be on top of it to beat everyone else as most items go OOS within 5 minutes. Barbells are consistently stocked weekly and plates as well. I've managed to build out my gym within the last 4 months with everything I need: rack, adjustable and flat benches, multiple barbells, over 700 lbs in bumper/iron plates, powerblocks and an echo bike. You can follow along (as well as tracking other companies stock) on the stock and shipping thread at r/homegym.

I hear/read this regurgitated in many comments about AJ as well as him calling for assassinating President Obama. Yet the evidence for this never materializes. This seems more like poisoning the well to avoid any discussion/argumentation.

Pins are generally mailed separately before after mailing the cards. (In this case I'm speaking of debit cards) It might make it difficult to map the pins to the chips, but maybe not since it seems these are bulk mailings.

This form of cultural eugenics serves no ideal purpose to western society. What are the merits of basing everyone by the hue of their pigmentation? This is exactly the same position that individuals advocating bill C-16 in Canada so that people are forced to acknowledge others transient or sexual state. Again, these ideas only serve to segrate groups and will likely lead to create civil strife.

What's missing in the reports is the connection between Martyrdom and the Ideology. Paradise is guaranteed for those who kill and are killed in the way of Allah (Surrah 9-111). That Jihad is obligatory not optional. But, yes let's continue to put forward the idea that this is a reactional factor, because you know, feelings.

Re:Google Recalls Staff to U.S. After Trump Immigration Order on Saturday January 28, 2017 @11:25AM (#13507131)
So you are saying we are running a republic of representative government? And yet these are the rules we play by and have always played by and I disagree this instance and so I need to virtue signal that "muh people's voice bruh."

This is pretty good, the folks in the security space could proabably use this for analysis. Any intention to inform organizations such as the center for security policy?
True, the article spoke nothing of moral equivalence. Glancing at commentary here I felt it needed to be said. I also agree it's not completely binary, as beliefs are contrasted over a highly myriad of interpretations coming from ones understanding of their faith and how it fits into their world view. I feel however to say nothing or contribute only in a form of western apologia, well it is disingenuous and should be shameful. If only we could be honest about the realities we are facing in the west. Additionally, those who are in their communities aware of the kind of individuals harboring doctrinal adherence should be willing, I mean if they truly have secular and pluralistic values in mind, to speak outwardly against it. Yet, I fear that to do so is extremely costly (death/physical harm/reputation) and so it continues to proliferate. Unfortunately, even if the debate model of change were to work the current debate is out of focus. I still think that debate is of little use other than to get your 15 mins at this point and that it is more important to speak outward against bad ideas in an honest and non-threating manner.
I'm astounded at the lauded idea that these guys are radicalized or it is some unfortunate circumstance of Western (white) oppression. In all its wonderful building of the multicultural fabric, the west continues to paint with the wide stroke that all cultures are great and morally equivalent. Thus, when there is an attack from these 'poor disenfranchised' individuals upon our freedoms and people, the west is quick to attack everything but the true problem, which is Islam. I mean all we have to do is look at Mohammed to understand what it means to be a truly honest, moral and exemplary Muslim.

------ 9:29. Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. ------

Likewise, very informative.
