OT White Supremacists Coming Out Of The Woodwork

[riverman]

Full spectrum surveillance of internet activities.

you need to duck tape your computer camera dude

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

He was half black and half white. He suscribed to white supremacasy. I'd say he was leaning to the white side.

I'd say he was leaning to the crazy side

I honestly dont understand why you’re pushing this its “Autism”, thing every time this stuff comes up. Maybe he’s he’s got it, maybe he doesnt but you seem to want them to have it, like their is some anti Autism agenda. Its strange.

You know how easy it is to get pictures of anyone with weird facial expressions? It’s not hard. I have no idea if this guy has it or not, but I think its strange that before any facts are out there you’re jumping too, “it’s ASD!”.

You don’t understand why? The more we can blame shootings on autism or bad parents or video games, the less blame can be put on guns. Because as we all know, only in America do we have bad parents, autism and video games.

I mean... I guess if we want to jump to conclusions more than I already did, but it seems like such a weird hill to climb.
Though I do want to say I think of those three things you mentioned I honestly do believe bad parenting has become a huge problem, not that other's don't have that problem but I know so many people that have kids and treat them like crap, or serve their own needs long before their kids (I realize that's anecdotal), and therefore a weak argument, but personal opinion bad/self-absorbed parents are really doing a number on society. Anyways, to me jumping up and down saying Autism did it, just seems so weird to me...

 

[riverman]

This issue should be looked at from every angle...and mental health issues are a rainbow of things...if someone points out a character trait that even involves one of these young shooters....it's not fair to say they are ONLY blaming one thing on the problem....this is why things don't get solved...you have to take everything into consideration...in too many of these conversations it's impossible to raise the issue of gun control at all because their are so many people who have strong opinions about them. I'm sure I'll not convince one of them to accept my view on guns after having had that argument so many times in OT here

HUGE problem = fucking terrible parenting.

River, I think most of us would agree that there are many things that go into the problems we have with violence and mass shootings in the country. You may not "convince" me to take up your stance, but I do respect your opinions and I'm glad to read them and I (try) to be respectful when I disagree. My point wasn't so much that Autism / Mental Health can't play a part in gun violence, or mass shootings, or stabbings, or whatever just that I find it odd when Autism gets brought up continuously even when there really doesn't seem to be facts to back it up. Taking a snapshot of a guy and saying he looks weird he must have autism, rubs me the wrong way...

 

[CupWizier]

I'd say he was leaning to the crazy side

Isn't that what Chris said?

 

[riverman]

rubs me the wrong way...

That's going to happen around here...happens to me all the time but he's weighing in on the topic..I've made fun of mug photos before or made judgements of them...usually looks like a crackhead or looks like a heavy drunk. Both also diseases in my view. To have an informative thread about autism and it's realities would be the place...to say someone looks a certain way is not usually PC but let me introduce you to "elprez"

 

[riverman]

I feel like next Trump will say it's ok to litter...prisoners will pick it up anyway

Well if Trump says its ok it must be

Its not so much about being PC to me as much, as I dont believe its trying to find a solution to the problem, but you make good points.

 

[CupWizier]

Not many. But is that the cutoff for a mass shooting? What is the official cutoff.

The United States’ Congressional Research Service defines a public mass shooting as 4 or more victims.

 

[MARIS61]

This study is Swedish, in a certain county in Sweden. We want to know about America, because that's where the young, male mass shooters are.

This is incorrect.

Scandinavia has more young, male mass murderers per capita than America has per capita, including the most prolific one.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

This is incorrect.

Scandinavia has more young, male mass murderers per capita than America has per capita, including the most prolific one.

So?

 

[MARIS61]

Not sure I follow. 50 is a number greater than 4. How many gang related shootings involve 50 or more deaths?

barfo

He said serial killers, not mass killers.

Most gang members who are killers don't stop at one. Most are prolific serial killers.

 

[MARIS61]

So?

Just sayin' what's all the fuss about? Nothing to this vitriol stirred up by hateful lunatic commie candidates.

It's fake news.

America is the most peaceful, most accepting, most diverse country in the world.

Sure a few assholes are born here, but the overwhelming majority of them sneak in across our borders.

Once we lock that down and round up the criminals, the dust will settle and prosperity will shine a light on the Deep State's shenanigans.

Well, you and @Jade Falcon should have a chat. He says 99% of people in the country are assholes. You imply here that the maximum number of assholes is what, maybe 2 or 3% of the population? Since most people here illegally didn't actually sneak across the border but rather overstay their visas.

I say neither one of you is any good with numbers.

I shouldnt admit it, but Im awful with numbers and doing math in my head. Really good at understanding formulas and making computers do the math though lol.

Pretty good at formulas as well as binary, octal and hex math.
Ask your computer to calculate pi.

Ive gotten pretty good at linear algebra and trig due to work, and with pen / paper I can do math, just not great at doing it in my
head. Robotics math is physics, Inverse / Forward Kinematics, gear ratio’s, torque, etc. I do some bit wise math, and binary. but havent had to do much hex / octal.

Linear algebra was my second toughest class. It was tougher than the first term of differential equations but not as tough as the second term of differential equations which was a living nightmare full of more eigen values that linear algebra.

Once my matrix get into 6 dimensions or so, screw that. Luckily, Im mostly working in 3d or 4d for robotics. Definitely forced myself to take differential calculus, but still I wouldnt say math is my strongest suit, I understand it well enough to make programs though!

I actually am kind of envious of people who learned math prior to technology basically doing all of it for us. -Not trying to call you old.

Just I feel like its too easy to let my computer do the work instead of making my brain work through the problem.

Hey, I'm not that old. Shortly after I graduated they invented electricity. See, I'm modern.
When I as in my last year of college our profs invited us to a pizza party. This was just when electronic calculators were becoming popular. At the pizza party the profs set up a trash can and we all took turns throwing our slide rules in it. I'll bet the profs kept those slide rules which must be valuable by now over 45 years later.

 

[crandc]

I lost my slide rule when some asshole jumped me and stole my bag when I was working swing shift at Emanuel Hospital. Sure he threw it away.

My ex wife trained to be a nurse at Emanuel. That's where I met her. I use to go visit her every day during the riots. Heard some horror stories including the tunnel that connected the dorm to the hospital but I never had a lick of trouble in spite of traveling up Williams every day that summer.
