Are you not a person?

Does Congress not have the authority to organize you, arm you, govern you, employ you? Do the states not have the authority to appoint officers over you, or train you according to the discipline prescribed by Congress?

Can you not be called forth to enforce law, suppress insurrection, or repel invasion?

You certainly can make some distinctions between "person" and "militiaman". A 4-year-old child is a person and not a militiaman. The courts would certainly rule against the idea that Congress can organize a Children's Brigade under the militia clauses. They would rule on constitutional grounds against paraplegics, or the mentally disabled being drafted. But we aren't talking about these exceptional cases. We are talking about the general case, and the general case is that it is your status as a person that makes you a member of the militia.

Indeed, I think that Congress should establish a requirement that every American be trained on safe handling procedures, as well as on the laws governing the use of force in self defense and defense of others. They have that authority under the Militia clauses; I think they should exercise it.

Not sure whether to denounce that mob, or wish them better luck next time.

Theoretically, yes, distilling is more dangerous than brewing. However, it is not more dangerous than, say, canning, deep frying, welding, operating a weed burner, or any number of other tasks a DIYer might do around the house and garage. If you can operate a pressure cooker, an oil lamp, and plumb a gas water heater, you can probably operate a still.

This would basically mean that the brake light would stay on almost all the time that you weren't actively accelerating.

As I understand the idea of "single pedal operation", taking your foot off the accelerator pedal initiates regenerative braking. If your foot is not on the accelerator, you are braking, and the brake lights should be illuminated. But the brake lights are normally controlled by the brake pedal. You are braking without touching that brake pedal; the lights will not come on.

OP is trying to solve that.

Germany managed to make butter out of coal during WWII.

Outraged? Nah. Bored. After you murdered your own argument, I've got nothing left to do but play sudoku, jerk off, and fall asleep.

you want to have guns you have to have the responsibility too.

No, you don't get to make that argument. Not after you try to make me a criminal for trying to take such responsibility. You're continuing to make the same mistakes. Argue better.

The dumb motherfucker told the world how to deal with a troublesome presidential candidate. Now he's going to Pikachu-face?

He then took his own life, with the gun that had precisely 1 bullet in it.

He had several guns, with many more than "precisely one bullet." He fired 15 rounds at tanks in a propane storage yard containing 30,000 gallons of propane, as well as several electrical transformers.

However, you spout hateful, phobic, misogynistic, ableist rhetoric since the 2016 campaign?

2016? Motherfucker has been spouting hate as far back as we are willing to judge people for spouting hate.

Gripe #1: From inbox, replying directly to a comment, I get the error "Could not determine post to comment to". I don't have this problem when I am viewing a comment in a post's, thread, only when viewing it from the inbox.

Gripe #2: Tapping the comment in the inbox takes me to the comment thread for the post, but does not take me to the specific comment within that thread. In a long thread, I can't always find the specific comment I am trying to reply to.

Edit: version 0.2.4

Edit2: Gripe #3: haven't figured out how to edit posts within Thunder; had to switch to Connect to make these edits...

I am getting this error pretty regularly. I'll see a message in my inbox, and when I tap through to view it in context, it's missing. Can't find a cause or a workaround.
