Not generally given, bought. You used to buy your commission in the military, and yes it went exactly as you'd think buying merit goes.

Iran has the right to self defense just like Israel, so are they not now justified in killing 30x as many civilians like Israel does?

This is correct. That said if you open carry you do so knowing any slight move can result in you being seen as threatening. It's a logical result of being armed and masked at a protest where a large part of the issue being protested is ice using unlawful force and authority while armed, masked and without any indicator that they are in fact police.

It's not victim blaming and it's not shooter advocating it's just saying this was both wildly foreseeable and incredibly unnecessary.

You're confusing politicians with the government, they're two separate things.

No they can't, they don't have a warrant or at the very least weren't issued or, do as you please like you would if any other thief stole your phone.

It's not, it's specifically celebrating racist traitorous losers.

So long as the steel mills and foundries are located in the US it doesn't actually matter who owns them if it comes to war. Not everything is Hitler but he did lure in industry only to nationalize it and give it to his friends like many other dictators.

Sure that doesn't actually negate what I've said though.

Pretty much yeah, a dirty bomb is usually better used as an actual bomb. If you just want to kill a bunch of people rapidly in terrifying ways then gases are your best guess. Almost all the real bad ones are shit you can just make yourself if you have the base chemicals. Phosgene gas for one is available commercially for industry. Colorless with a benign smell but fatalities are often long after exposure so you could start a pretty rowdy leak in a population center and unless they're a WW1 vet most aren't likely to know the smell. You'd have a ton dead near instantly and a lot of people going home and living their lives for up to like 5 days and all of a sudden you get real bad and drop dead kinda out of the blue.
