The first shot was to the back of his head. He fell to the ground immediately. Then, in struggling to pull himself to his feet he locked eyes with Luigi, holding a gun, and saw him shoot 2 more times. That was the last thing Brian Thompson saw.
Pretty sure he knows how he died.
I wish I could love super metroid. I really do. The game holds up. The graphics are great, the sound design is bafflingly superb for a 16 bit game. Controls are tight. Map size is big but not daunting.
And then you get to the part where you fall down a pitt. And the game teaches you to wall jump.
...........everytime I play the game, thats where the game ends. It's been 30+ years, and I still can't wall jump in that game.
Oh, heres the thing. Even if you WERE to convince Trump that his own direct decisions is what led to the deaths of hundreds of people? He would just shrug and not care.
"I just gotta get out everything I needed to say, if I saw a leather sectional, there's any price I would pay! These are my confessions! No need to worry about credit checks or money down, I'll take your whole stock, you know I'm a political clown! These are my confessions...."
I prefer cherry coke. No ice.
Brian Thompson knows how he died. It's unclear if he knew why it was happening though. He may have died thinking Luigi was just a random mugger, and him being Brian Thompson was irrelevant to what was happening.
Or, maybe Brian knew why he was being shot. As far as I know there's no audio, and nobody ever leaked what was said.
Still though, there was another lady there, which means SOMEBODY knows what was said. The fact that she didn't immediately hit the talk show circuit, like the today show or whatever, shows that she's not some pussy snitch. Once she read why that happened, she was like "Ooooooooh, ok. I didn't see nothin!"
What I'm saying is, if you study history, in the 1920s Germany was one of the most progressive, left leaning, all inclusive cultures. To go from that to.....nazi Germany in about 10 years should tell you that the general public didn't know at all what they were doing with the jews.
In the early days, before the war, they were just deporting them. Well what they kept finding happening was, they'd deport the jews. Then they'd take over new land. On that new land they'd find not only jews, but they were figuring out these were the SAME jews they just deported a year earlier from their land. So they'd deport them from this NEW land. Only to later take over more new land, and the cycle repeats.
So for people living in Germany before the nazis, they probably knew and liked their jewish neighbors. Everybody knows the story of Anne Frank, but think of what that entails. It means the homeowner saw the jews being deported, and allowed this entire family to live in the attic. Which shows that people were living in nazi germany, but not in favor of it. And that's one story that became famous because of a diary, but it was happening all over Germany.
So to think about how many young kids were in the bulk of the soldiers, mandatory drafted, I cannot believe that they all supported something that was intentionally kept a secret from the general public.....and these soldiers would have been the general public before being enlisted.
I believe the people who believed in the nazi idiology were definately in the top 5 most evil "governments" we've ever seen. Arguably the most evil.
I just don't believe you can assume a group of 19 year olds are in the know about a government conspiracy to construct a series of death camps with the intention of killing all jews.
Just the same I don't believe all USA soldiers who fought in Vietnam knew about Agent Orange being sprayed and causing health issues.
Even right now, in russia, you have an entire country that thinks they were invaded by Ukraine. That's not what happened, but thats what they think.
Government propaganda is real, and it is powerful. So yeah, I absolutely think there were tons of young German soldiers that only found out the truth after the war was over. And if you look at German citizen reaction, it's pretty clear they didn't know. They did an abrupt 180, and instantly had empathy for what they had done. If they knew and supported it, they would have kept doing it after Hitler died.
This just shows how sports minded all this bullshit is. If Pence was still Trumps VP, he'd currently be tweeting "Oh, all praise our leader!"
But because he had a falling out, he find himself saying things that will fall on the right side of history. Not because he's a genuinely good person, but because the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Didn't hear Pence speaking out in 2019 when Trump was president, and was trying to extort Zelenskyy into blackmailing Hunter Biden. Pence didn't say a word.
So he can shut the fuck up. He's not wrong in what he's saying, but HE can shut the fuck up.
Me in the backyard as a 5 year old pointing at the sky:
"There's a plane........there's a plane........there's a plane.........oh, that one's actually a UFO!" "No it's not" "YES IT IS DAD!!! YOU DON'T KNOW!!!"
You guys today:
"There's a plane........there's a plane........there's a plane.........oh, that one's actually a UFO!"
"SEE DAD!!! I TOOOOOOLD YOU!!!!"
"Told me what?"
"Remember 36 years ago when I told you it was a UFO?"
"Uhhhhh......no? Not really?"
"WELL IT WAS A UFO!!!! THE GOVERNMENT SAID SO A FEW YEARS AGO, AND NOW THESE GUYS ONLINE SAY SO TOO!!!"
".........alright."
Spider cock, spider cock, on the cover? Sells a flock! Look out, here somes spider cock!
........oh, this sticky white goo isn't spider webbing....
Well no......it would have been "Just Ask Jeeves".
So how were Jeeves boobs? Nice?
I didn't realize what comment you were replying to, so I didn't realize you were replying to a linux comment. I thought "penguin insurgancy" was some political term I'd never heard of before. But I didn't know what it meant. So I just envisioned elon musk rising out of the sewer, and biting trumps nose off.
She looks like she KNOWS you're thinking of taking one single punchcard from the middle of the pile, thus rendering the whole thing useless.
And she's not having your shit.
Thats not what a tipping point is. You're thinking of rock bottom.
Have we reached a tipping point where ignorance has become the norm?
Yes. We reached that point in 1776.
Ah yes. Using piefed to withdraw $20.
.......it was never funny. What was supposed to be the joke exactly? That millions of people in 3 years have died? That schools, and hospitals have been targeted BECAUSE they were schools and hospitals for bombing?
Yeah, I don't see the humor in any time of this war.
Given what happened the other night, should Nintendo release Jake Paul's Punch-Out?
You know what would be cool? If all those (job name) simulator games could all be joined.
The first person to ever have anal sex must have had an awkward conversation.
Ballpitts are never washed. Not even once. However, some kids pee in there. This means there is a 100% chance that all balls in ballpits have been peed on, and not washed at some point.
Are the 2020 tick marks where ALL voting in 2020 landed? Or just where early/mail-in voting landed?
What is stopping the vice president from ever murdering the president?
