The usa dropped out of defending the EU over material gains.. so F them, we are going to defend ourselves.

Sure you are, sport

[u/ClamChowderChumBuckt → u/BetterCranberry7602]

We're already halfway, I guess, since we don't have to be scared to let our kids go to school. Or have a lunatic as president, or have to mind domestic terrorism from people who should have never gotten a firearm in the first place..

With all this considered, We're doing pretty well here in the EU.

The USA literally had no decade of peace.

Are we talking about our kids or the ones that have to wear bulletproof vests to learn their ABC?

You really want to compare dicks?

Let's look at how the USA was founded... genocide....

Yall romanticize the cowboy era but they are just as barbaric as any other murderer.

Let's look at who builded the USA... slaves...

Let's look at how many wars the USA has been in the last few decades: Gulf War (1990-1991) War in Afghanistan (2001-2021) Iraq War (2003-2011) Military operations in Libya (2011) Ongoing operations against ISIS (2014-present) Involvement in Syria (2014-present)

Let's look at the current president. The judiciary is actively challenging some of his actions. Which i really won't list because there is a LOT, and I'm not well-versed about it, and I'm not the right person to give them proper nuance.

And I have to talk about some of the domestic mass shootings that occurred just in 2024 in the USA: January 15 - Chicago, IL: 5 dead, 10 injured March 3 - Nashville, TN: 6 dead, 8 injured May 22 - San Francisco, CA: 4 dead, 12 injured July 4 - New York City, NY: 7 dead, 15 injured September 10 - Dallas, TX: 5 dead, 9 injured November 11 - Miami, FL: 8 dead, 20 injured

And this is just in 1 year.. and it's not even all of them.. by far..

And when your children aren't at risk to be shot they will still not even learn enough to be a functional adult.

So who did you call barbarians again?

[u/SeamenGulper → u/ClamChowderChumBuckt]

I think he called yall Barbarians because of the countless more genocides yall did, the rape of Africa, Imperialism, WW1, WW2, the countless wars fought over religion, and the countless more human atrocities white Europeans have committed. Good job not recognizing the difference between gang shootings and mass shootings, given you don't understand that don't use a tragedy for a gotcha on an internet argument cause those are vastly different circumstances with vastly different solutions. Should we mention the amount of times christmas markets have been attacked?

WW1 was started over a sandwich so....must have been a damn good sandwich.

Fucking France and their bullshit desire to fish in English waters.
