I agree with this take. Whichever way OP meant it, his post can absolutely be interpreted as a call to prepare for (lethal) violence against law enforcement. And promoting concealed carry in general suggests promoting it in the workplace as well (especially because it was on a company Slack channel). I can understand that that gets people nervous.

I doubt there were any bad intentions on OPs part, and to them a warning probably would have sufficed. But I can understand the opposite position, so I don't think the dismissal is entirely unjustified. Heavy-handed, sure.

Poking holes in certain details is nice and fun but ultimately not really all that important. For example, whether HR talked to them in 1 day or 3 is a detail, it's not critical to the case. And that they never argued their wrongful dismissal case on freedom of speech grounds is irrelevant. They likely already found that they weren't fired for organizing a union (or at least, there's no evidence that that is the reason presented here), so the next best defense is protected speech (which this also isn't).

For those curious, this apple does exist (though it's more of a very dark purple) and it grows at high altitude in Tibet. The altitude gave it its colour.

Armenia has the significant tactical advantage of not being on Russia's border. Georgia and Azerbaijan are unlikely to provide the Russian army access.

It's sounds bizarre to me that this couldn't be resolved by rebooting.

Then again, how do you reboot a car exactly? It's not "off" even when the car is not started I suppose.

That's fair but I personally wouldn't recommend 4chan to kids either.

Clearly the train didn't yield properly, time to ban trains.

Yet there were still no findings that Iran indeed was working towards nuclear weapons. Just having the means to do it isn't the same as actually doing it.

This seems rather unlikely. Ukraine for example takes care to inform journalists and simply asks them not to compromise their locations, checking phones and cameras where necessary.

They don't hold journalists at gunpoint, delete all images off of each device, then threaten the journalists if they dare come back.

Israel has committed crimes in Syria too, which they seem keen to cover up. Intimidation of the press fits in that pattern. They wouldn't behave like this if it was jusy opsec.

What fucking timeline, did anyone believe Trump had a concrete plan in the first place?

It's because there's not enough people in the EU actually using it.
