Go with the actual line in the movie, "You are sheltering enemies of the state, are you not?"
You get more love that way.

That is understandable. It's just not something I was contesting.

An island needs to be permanently inhabited to extend an EEZ.

I would take water flavor over piss flavor, even if the latter is the correct flavor.

And the equipment. Our military industry complex gives military machines and weapons and vehicles because we spend trillions on wars we don't need to fight. Sonic weapons for peaceful protests, gas guns that they fire at their body even though it's supposed to bounce off the ground. Rubber bullets kill people. They're rubber but they're still shot out of a gun. Tasers kill people too.

Nah. The kid was with family, probably all having a good time. The girl is probably is a meth addict who lives at the home but that doesn't mean everyone in the family knew. Police show up and then ask if she's there and everybody says they don't know. The toddler did his thing and they said thanks. Probably no freak out or anything.
Plus kids at that age don't really understand and would probably gloss over it. There's no mention of violence or resisting or there would have been charges. There's no obstruction charges either, so the rest of the family didn't do anything by not cooperating worthy of charges.

Here's how it should go
Step 1: Talk to the woman who's car he accidentally got into and apologized for.
Step 2: Leave.

I hope they stab it into his chest. That way he always remembers that scar and his cowardice.

Molson Coors (Miller and Coors) produces a ton of craft beer brands. InBev (Budweiser) produces even more.
Also, pre-prohibition America featured an enormous amount of small local breweries in every neighborhood that made beer which was more or less identical to the European styles that were most associated with that region of the country, usually English style ales or German lagers. The idea of mass produced corporate national beer brands is obviously fairly modern, and adjunct lagers are even more modern. The current US beer culture is actually a return to how things used to be.

Not so much bad, just boring.
And in the Bud/Miller/Coors America, the average beer makes your wonder if you're drinking pee if you've ever had anything better.
In the 80%-of-the-US-population-lives-in-urban-areas-now America, you can get whatever the hell kind of beer you want. I don't know if you could even claim there is an average. I imagine if you could, it would be by a slim margin based on arbitrary criteria.
The whole reason this is funny in the first place is that in the first America, there's only three beers, so if one of them should happen to cast some shade while promoting their own beer, it's not hard to guess who they're talking about. It's even funnier when one of the other two claims insult without being named directly.
The joke doesn't work in the second America, so it's not even talking about your beer.

His parents drilled him to be honest. There is no way a toddler could understand his parents were massive hypocrites and only meant honest with them and not the police.
This kid isn't brave. He's not mature enough to understand the consequences of his actions. He literally thought telling the truth would lead to nothing but a pat on the head.

Right, lets not tell the commander and chief about the impossible things recorded by credible witnesses flying with impunity over american missile facilities. And certainly don't tell him about the paper trail and opinion of the former UAP director regarding 'recovered materials.' That's none of his business...
imo, I completely disagree, all of humanity is owed the knowledge, not just a select few the military deems appropriate.

> it was just talking to pilots and collecting details/anecdotes
There might be no link at all. Maybe it's a co-incidence that the US military suddenly, and for no rational reason began funding anti gravity, memory metals, and fusion research in the early 1950s. Just a few years after Trinity. And they're still at it, they just funded 8 universities last week for LENR (aka cold fusion) research.
Why are they intent on studying these fields which are so scientifically unfounded that they are/were almost taboo to study seriously? For 75 years? What do they have to show for that multi-trillion dollar investment?
They know alot more than they say, and they're not sharing observations, or materials which could be studied at greater speed in public. Even the prosaic things.
What's the motivation at this point?

Considering the vast majority of available American beer is now craft rather than mass-produced adjunct beer, I would still disagree with whatever is being considered “average”. Every other country has cheap piss beer too. In fact, most countries really only have their domestic piss beer and not much else. But I guess this is Reddit and America bad

I know, I've had some good ones.
The original comment was about the average lager within the context of American beer though, and they do all give the impression of watered down piss.
Alow me to write off the other half of beer styles in existence and say that IPAs are fucking disgusting, and we all know it. The people who "like" them are lying to themselves.

Dunkel, Helles, Bock, Maibock, Doppelbock, Märzen, real European Pilsner, American Amber, etc etc. None of these taste like piss. Go to Germany and tell me the beer tastes like piss. Writing off basically half of the beer styles in existence is ultra pretentious IPA hipster energy.
