I live in an area where fires are frequent and aerial cables plentiful.

Once in a while, a crew comes around and picks up all the broken cable. But considering these are mostly glass, non insulated cables, I'd risk it just becomes another inert part of the soil.

Hopefully, there will be a retrieval plan, after all the madness ends.

There's another unnecessary organization. And an evil one, at that.

Someone has a tender spot.

Nope. Grow a mind and learn proper insult, hot breath.

You mind doing me a favour? Please.

Stop calling cops pigs. It's idiotic, ridiculous and insultuous towards actual pigs.

If you feel the need to throw insults, do so; just make use of some imagination. Don't be afraid of being baroqe.

Call them door kickers, grave fillers, trigger jockeys, wall jumpers... Say they're as sharp as an army boot or that they're a waste of fresh air or unneeded space filling.

Just make it an actual insult, not a comparison to an animal that does not deserve it.

Or better yet, despise them to such a point that you make the word cop an insult by itself.

That is simply awful to read.

Can't imagine her thoughts on equality

There is nothing simple in removing a nation from a treaty, even more when it involves such degree of integration as we have in the EU. Remember Brexit. It was a complete disaster.

Saying there is a need to remake this or that institution is also not a good idea.

UN as it exists is undermined. Either all countries of good faith band together and forcefully ignore the treaties on which the alliance predicates in order to force change or those countries simply ignore UN and create a new international organization, with the same purpose but with more muscle and bite behind it. In my view, the UN could evolve to what could become a global federation and the prototype of a unified, transnational, government.

Regarding the EU, it is by default, to my knowledge, an ever evolving organism. New agreements, treaties, etc, are constantly being drafted, negotiated, etc. It is, very obviously and objectively, a large, cumbersome, slow beast but it has created very good initiatives that have created good outcomes for all.

But the bulls will only either kill you or break a few bones if you don't get out of their way. Here, the "bulls" make sure to corner you and pummell you down, just for the thrill of it.

That is essentialy the principle of good faith.

Unfortunately, good faith only goes so far and things have reached a tipping point where clear cut, non dependent of votes and agreements, sanctions and limitations to members states are established.

My own country prefers to pay an yearly fine instead of ending the double taxation in place on fuels.

Hungary is veering further and further towards a totalitarian regime. Arguing that people voted for it is an empty reply. The country is plunging into the completely opposite direction of what a democratic state is.

So stripping the country of its voting rights is not enough.

That's Easter. But since you mention it, there was a time when coal was to be given to the bad kids, which by default were all the non-white and not poor kids.

Bigoted enough for you? I grew up still listening echos of that shit.

I think it is mandatory. There is a very precise rite to declare a pope as deceased.
