Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 78993817 India 06/23/2021 12:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The US is a bankrupt warmongering police state, but Americans think everything is just fine. Americans are scared to death of viruses, guns, illegal immigrants, and terrorists. Every choice the elites have made has been wrong. The globalists said that the only possible option to deal with viruses is to shut down the entire world, but no one realized that there might be unintended consequences. Didn't closing the world ruin the economy? Won't shutting the economy lead to people being unable to repay loans? Wouldn't unpaid loans lead to banks going bankrupt? Wouldn't closing businesses lead to unemployment, homelessness, starvation, and suicides? Wouldn't debt and printing money to pay for welfare make people lazy and lead to hyperinflation? Couldn't a collapsed economy and tyranny lead to riots, looting, a civil war, and WWIII? What if the virus is no more dangerous than the flu? Doesn't sunshine and fresh air kill germs? Did the US shut down the economy when there were smallpox, yellow fever, Ebola, and measles outbreaks in the past? What if a vaccine is never invented? Is there a vaccine for AIDS? Americans are control freaks now. Americans think freedom only benefits others and tyranny only punishes others. You may not care if yoga pants and smoking are illegal, but do you still think you are free now that you are under house arrest? Do you think TSA groping doesn't happen? Do you believe that you are exempt from NSA wiretapping? Do you really think gun bans would only apply to blacks? Do you really believe license plate readers only record illegal aliens? The Gestapo don't mind arresting Americans for not wearing masks or owning businesses because the Gestapo don't wear masks or own companies, but do the Gestapo think that their families are not affected by tyranny? Americans think they are safe from the police state, but do you think that Communists weren't killed in the Soviet Union? Weren't doctors and rich people killed in Cambodia?Do you really think white people were safe in Nazi Germany? If you like high taxes and illegal immigrants, why don't you move to a place with high taxes and illegals? If like guns and smoking, why don't you move to a place that has guns and smokers? Do Americans realize that the US used to be a free country? Have Americans gone insane? |

Americans defend Gestapo suspected of crimes by saying that the officer is only "accused". |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79969186 United States 06/23/2021 01:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Alabama mom faces felony for filling doctor’s prescription while pregnant Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78993817 [link to www.al.com (secure)] "But that didn’t satisfy the Florence Police Department or Lauderdale County District Attorney’s Office, which investigated and charged Blalock with prescription fraud for not telling her orthopedist she was pregnant." She was charged because she lied to get the prescription in the first place, if she had told her doctor and that doctor gave her the prescription anyway she wouldn't have had any problem. It's because she lied, fraudulently obtaining a presecription is illegal. Odds are she had tried her regular doctor who told her no and wound up lying to the orthapedist to get it. Regardless of personal opinions or anything else this story isn't about a mom who was charged because she filled a prescription, that's fake news. I'm not blaming the OP but rather the site that ran with that headline because it's bullshit. She was charged for lying to obtain a prescription. Whether she took them or not doesn't matter, whether she needed them or not doesn't matter and whether she was pregnant or not doesn't even matter. It's her own fault for lying and since the baby tested positive for opiates she must have taken some even though the article tries to obfuscate that fact. That kid could be addicted for the rest of his or her life and could even have died. To make matters worse, problems might develop in the child now that otherwise never would have. The woman is in pain, I get it but seriously she's a mother of six she should know better. |

There will be lockdowns, mandatory masks, mandatory vaccines, and cash will be banned this year. The Internet, ATM machines, water, and power may go down. The stock market will crash. Buy guns, ammo, gold, gasoline, batteries, water, rice, and canned food. Move to a small white town in South Dakota or buy a sailboat. Go to a military surplus store today and buy a backpack, a tent, camping gear, body armor, and camo. Get fit. Shit is getting real. |

I’m glad she was out of town when the police raided her house as part of their investigation. Interesting article. Quoting: 936432979 They raided her house? Over this bullshit? Wow! We went to war with Afghanistan to get opioids now the police are raiding peoples homes over a Dr. Prescription? Really ? Banned often |

User ID: 79848633 United States 07/20/2021 06:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The whole rest of the world thinks we are undeserving pigs who have way too much of an over abundance of everything and they are determined thru are going to take it away. China wants all our land, thinks we don't deserve to have it all. The Latinos want it back, think we stole it and North America is really an extension of South America that belongs to them. INDIA is determined to create their own caste system here and make us the untouchables, our own government and politicians call us deplorable,racists,homophobic,even killers and the biggest national security threat. Our new corrupt illegally installed president is going to get every tax dollar possible out of us, he already hired 90,000 new IRS employees to do it! We are like rotten meat surrounded by vultures |

User ID: 80306338 United States 07/20/2021 06:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is my area where I live. We have pain clinics we have to go to to get narcotics and they aren't all super easy to obtain. My mom had osteoarthritis and could barely move without hers, and we went in once a month for appointments. Because she was in a wheelchair and could not pee in a bottle, they used an alternative test. About 2/3rds of the time, I was pee tested (I never took her meds, and never failed a test). My 70 year old mother was asked every time if she was pregnant on the questionnaire you had to fill out. I had my tubes tied 10 years ago and I get asked at every doctor's visit regardless of the reason when my last period was, if I am pregnant or could be and how many times I have ever been pregants. It's on the paperwork you fill out every time, no matter your age. It is on it for my primary care, when I got my gallbladder out and even my dermatologist asks it. Now, you may be able to get them from a doctor short term, but they all refer you to a pain clinic for long term management or a doctor you see is part of the network and those doctors are very strict on those Rxs and generally will refer you ASAP to the pain clinic. It's like surgeons...you can get pain meds for the surgery for about a month, but if it is chronic you get referred pretty fast to a pain clinic. There are a couple of things here that are not being addressed to figure out if this was Lauderdale being overly zealous or if she really did something hinky. Here, you get a 30 day supply and have to go in for more. She used them for the last 6 weeks...so did she go in visibly pregnant where it was obvious, or did she make her meds last longer? When she got the meds is also going to be an issue...if she went in before it was obvious she was pregnant and saved them for the later pregnancy or if she went in a 7 and a half month pregnant is also going to be an issue. We're hearing one side of the story. I know DAs are both overzealous in prosecutions and lenient on similar cases, but there are a few questions that aren't being answered that can spin it one way or the other. |

If Americans don't defend free speech, religious freedom, gun rights, freedom from unconstitutional searches and seizures, the right to silence, and the freedom from torture and extrajudicial assassination, what part of the Bill of Rights do they support? What country is this? |
