Because criminals dont get citizenship for just being here for a long time

>>773471
in his entire lifetime he could have legally gained citizenship but he didn't, and this is good apparently

>>773472
Yea, he should be deported because he is a criminal

>>773462
Not the evidence but the erroneous conclusion you have drawn from it.

>>773465
Yes, I'm furiously pounding my desk in anger and frustration because illegal aliens exist. Oh wait, no that's you.

>>773475
The conclusion that because there are photos and documented accounts of blacks protesting apollo that blacks protested apollo?

“For over a decade, Kaveh Afrasiabi pitched himself to Congress, journalists, and the American public as a neutral and objective expert on Iran," stated Assistant Attorney General Demers. “However, all the while, Afrasiabi was actually a secret employee of the Government of Iran and the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations (IMUN) who was being paid to spread their propaganda. In doing so, he intentionally avoided registering with Department of Justice as the Foreign Agents Registration Act required. He likewise evaded his obligation to disclose who was sponsoring his views. We now begin to hold him responsible for those deeds.”

“Anyone working to advance the agenda of a foreign government within the United States is required by law to register as an agent of that country,” stated FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Sweeney. “Mr. Afrasiabi never disclosed to a Congressman, journalists or others who hold roles of influence in our country that he was being paid by the Iranian government to paint an untruthfully positive picture of the nation. Our laws are designed to create transparency in foreign relations, and they are not arbitrary or malleable. As today's action demonstrates, we will fully enforce them to protect our national security.”

“Our arrest of Kaveh Afrasiabi makes it clear that the United States is not going to allow undeclared agents of Iran to operate in our country unchecked. For more than a decade, Mr. Afrasiabi was allegedly paid, directed, and controlled by the Government of Iran to lobby U.S. government officials, including a Congressman; and to create and disseminate information favorable to the Iranian government,” stated FBI Special Agent-in-Charge Bonavolonta. “The FBI will continue to do everything it can to uncover these hidden efforts and hold accountable those who work for our adversaries to the detriment of our national security.”

According to the complaint, Afrasiabi is a citizen of the Islamic Republic of Iran and a lawful permanent resident of the United States. Afrasiabi holds a PhD, and frequently publishes books and articles, and appears on English-language television programs discussing foreign relations matters, particularly Iran’s relations with the United States. Afrasiabi has identified or portrayed himself as a political scientist, a former political science professor or as an expert on foreign affairs.

Since at least 2007 to the present, Afrasiabi has also been secretly employed by the Iranian government and paid by Iranian diplomats assigned to the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations in New York City (IMUN). Afrasiabi has been paid approximately $265,000 in checks drawn on the IMUN’s official bank accounts since 2007 and has received health insurance through the IMUN’s employee health benefit plans since at least 2011.

In the course of his employment by the Iranian government, Afrasiabi has lobbied a U.S. Congressman and the U.S. Department of State to advocate for policies favorable to Iran, counseled Iranian diplomats concerning U.S. foreign policy, made television appearances to advocate for the Iranian government’s views on world events, and authored articles and opinion pieces espousing the Iranian government’s position on various matters of foreign policy. Afrasiabi has long known that FARA requires agents of foreign principals to register with the U.S. Department of Justice and has discussed information obtained from FARA disclosures with others. Nevertheless, Afrasiabi did not register as an agent of the Government of Iran.

You can't be an honest party, when you've convinced your electorate that your life or identity is on the line. It would be foolish naiveté on the edge of suicide to fail to fight for that in anyway that you could. If any party were to do anything less, we'd be ashamed of its timid weakness.

There are plenty of left wing Trumptards, who see him as the enemy, both adding to and highlighting the core problem, along with those on the right. They can be seen as either a light to chase shadows away from the core issue between them, or something you must fight against by pouring your own darkness into them, until you're all lost in the dark fires of having to win at all costs.

>>763465
Thank fucking Christ. You globohomo retards weren't supposed to use Team America as a blueprint for US foreign policy.

On January 15, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that Russia launches withdrawal from the Treaty on Open Skies. Other parties will receive the relevant notification when the domestic procedures are completed.

Washington was accusing Russia of selective compliance with the treaty and violation of a number of the treaty clauses for several years. Russia has its own complaints to Washington regarding the treaty implementation. In 2017, Washington announced introduction of certain restrictions against Russian surveillance flight over the US territory, causing Russia to respond in a mirror-like fashion. The US pulled out from the Open Skies Treaty on November 22.

>>773067
>selective compliance with the treaty
That's a nice way to say they just never gave a fuck. Same as the USA.

The ATF has been "interpreting" laws multiple ways on it's own. Why wouldn't it be a court that forces them to follow the law or maintain how they interpret it?

>>773400
The pistol brace issue may not hold up under scrutiny. Clearly people are using them as stocks and shouldering them. However the ATF made their decision that this was OK, they shouldn't be able to reverse it now to try to force millions of people to register under the NFA. I'd like to believe bringing up how retarded the NFA items are would lead to it's repeal, but I'm sure it will be spun as "keep these even scarier guns off our streets." Meanwhile an AK with a 4" barrel and no stock is legal because the ATF classifies it as a pistol.

>>773405

>Meanwhile an AK with a 4" barrel and no stock is legal because the ATF classifies it as a pistol.
Gun laws are so stupid, sometimes, it's almost like they are being sabotaged from the inside...

But, the effort is more for theatre than effect. They usually just want to *look* like they are doing something, which is so often true of government in general - not that the nation doesn't need that, to one degree or another, but it sure is damned annoying sometimes.

>>773416
There's always constant internal debate as to what they people will swallow - but as people get more afraid and desperate, so do the parties, and yes, and this sometimes makes them blind to each other, as well as easy to manipulate.

On a somewhat unrelated subject can anyone please tell me why New York is trying to pass a law banning and confiscating body armor?

>All we wanted were free and fair elections
And you got them according ro DHS, DOJ, Republican State election officials (many avowed Trump supporters, and 60+ court cases decided by Dem, Repub and Trump judges.

The only one saying differently is your 2 yo toddler in chief who started claiming the only possible way he could lose was through fraud even months before the election. His temper tantrum was shamelessly echoed by Republican Senators and Representatives who in fact, knew the election was fair and there was no widespread fraud.

The fact that you magat cultists have been hoodwinked by a con man carnival barking grifter, who cares about nothing other than himself, is on you. You absolute tool.

Right wing clowns were seething endlessly about MSM unfavorably covering the magahat boy and now they're desperately trying to derail the thread when Fox news does something worse and tries to cover it up harder. Typical.

Right: they "believe" they're not full of shit. That's the whole reason they're more dangerous.

>>773329
>I think this is where we disagree i am completely convinced that there will be no improvement without fear.
Well, first off, I should say I have a personal distaste for ruling through fear, however effective it can be. You do need to highlight past mistakes and what can be improved, but fear generated beyond that laser focus, just causes confusion and clouds minds while fermenting rebellion.

>Correct me if I'm wrong but if memory serves it was the 2000 Election and the resulting fallout that led to Florida improving their system though admittedly it's already quite a while since i looked into that specific issue.
Florida carried out a LOT of reforms, though the core of the problem was actually one Bush borrowing another Bush’s felon hit-list, and applying any first or last names that matched to the voter registration (removing ~100K registrants - the winning difference being ~500). Too rich to be attacked directly for it, under this system, which protects its rich to avoid fermenting rebellion among them, as it does all its citizens to one degree or another, if mostly via corrupt meritocracy, Nonetheless regulations were re-written to prevent such an abuse to the system happening the same way again.

There’s always more bugs to patch in this game’s development though, and every time we fix one bug, we tend to create a bunch of more interesting ones, so heads do need to be calm, clear, and united, when we mess with the code.

A general malaise of mutual distrust and fear is not always conducive to that, you only need enough concern to double check other's work.

>>773329
>I don't believe, if we are talking about the same kind of people, are interested in the carrot unless it comes from a source that feeds their bias.
It’s a matter of what’s palatable to their current appetite for self preservation. For instance, the left nearly started going after illegal employers (Biden’s plan), instead of the immigrants, and the right wrote up a plan to rely on Bush Jr.’s popularity with the Hispanics, while attacking Obama’s deportation record (tossed in the fire, after Trump’s first debate).

You do need the stick from time to time, but eventually, you end up hitting the people instead of the issues, and at that point, they will fight against their own interests and goals, simply because they came out of your mouth. (Ask anyone who has successfully raised a teenager. It is just a simple core function of the human mind, to rebel against angry parents - and it’s one you don’t want to put an end to, as it’s also core to avoiding various horrors, and forces their parents to mature as well, allowing the family's bond to deepen as conflicts are resolved.)

Political parties in their group think, often act like angry children, - treat them as such when they do, rather than as an enemy to be eliminated. Ideas cannot be killed, they can only be allowed to ferment and boil over, as they are wielded by those seeking power. Caring only by equal exchange is not always an option, and one does not want to encourage a party to become the worst of themselves in their fear and anger.

“Fear is the path to the dark side” - also beer goggles.

>>773332
>Being reasonable proficient with the /g/ aspect of the issue i believe making the machines fully open source would be an essential step, it would with one swoop eliminate the whole "Dominion changed votes" claim.
Agreed... Also think we need to make any USB access to the devices proprietary and hard to reproduce, and tracked like they were nuclear briefcases. They do need Internet access to be effective, but it should be at the hardware rigged to be one way with a unique secure protocol, even if that means they cannot verify with handshakes beyond the carrier. Both those things are expensive to develop though.

However, the paleoconservative in me would really rather we just went back to paper ballots. It took longer, but they were a lot more secure and easier for people to understand. ...and the mail in ballots I suspect, in this case, are the bigger problem. The Dominion machines, with their printed receipts and anonymized end user verification option, were a vast improvement over the ones the Diebold company they ate had been producing before.

Kinda wish we could do away with anonymous voting altogether, and solve nearly everything surrounding this issue in one fell swoop, but it’s obviously there for a reason. We are not ready for that level of agreeing to disagree, and even if we were one day, no guarantee we would always be so.

>>773351
>I should say I have a personal distaste for ruling through fear,
You misunderstood me, i don't mean rule through fear i meant it more in the way that it has to be made clear that the system is faulty, which would inherently stoke distrust and fear in the people, instead of pretending it's perfectly fine because that's what the current rhetoric is.
The first step to improvement is the recognition of a problem even if that problem has horrible implications.
>>773356
I don't think we are referring to the same issue i was pointing towards people who blindly base their worldview on what their preferred news source says. (and admittedly i kinda fucked up my sentence in general)
My point is the news sources are an inherent part of the dynamic that keeps the populous in check.
And as it stands we have little to no incentive we can offer to make them change both the sources and the people who blindly rely on them, the people may be persuaded personally speaking but the news sources are outside of the reach of normal people, meaning the carrot is not an option as far as i can see.
>>773358
>and tracked like they were nuclear briefcases
Absolutely agreed, tho i personally am opposed to proprietary technology in this matter, history has shown that no proprietary technology ends up secure or unreproduced, in my opinion it would be better to instead limit any kind of interaction period.
Admittedly i do not have access to how the setup on the ground is but from what i can tell the ideal would be to have technicians set up the machines and connect them to whatever is dealing with the votes in the backend, and then plain seal everything instead of allowing unvetted people to potentially gain access to the machines.
As it stands poll workers have too much access to the machines as far as i'm concerned.
>those things are expensive to develop though.
I read somewhere that the reason dominion got the contract is because they were the cheapest offer, which was to be expected.

>>773358
>we just went back to paper ballots.
To be perfectly honest i agree with this stance, as ideal as computerized systems are, the minimum required investment for their security is on a level no government is going to bother implementing, which is also why i fear that governments are going to implement internet voting which would in my opinion be the end of any kind of legitimate election due to the impossibility to actually secure those systems.
>and the mail in ballots I suspect, in this case, are the bigger problem.
From what i can tell the biggest issue with mail in ballots is how they are not beholden to the same standards as normal ballots which is admittedly an inherent issue with the concept, which is why nearly all civilized countries keep it strictly limited.
>and even if we were one day
I can't see how we ever would be but
>Kinda wish we could do away with anonymous voting altogether
This might be inevitable purely based on the reality of how big tech is analyzing our data.
I wouldn't be surprised if google & co would be capable of predicting who someone votes for with a 90+% likelihood.
