...If the conductor tells someone...

Isn't it one of the most common rifles hunters use?

I disagree. If the conductor tells someone to stop being an asshole and they curse back, they’re belligerent and noncompliant, and it’s reasonable to have the police remove them from the train.

Cool, but that's not disagreeing with what I said.

If he had his feet up on another seat, and said "go fuck yourself" instead of "no" (which is a scenario compatible with the description). He still shouldn't have been arrested.

From Mary Poppins:

Though we adore them individually, we agree that as a group they're rather stupid.

There's a philosopher/history of philos on the bowling team I've just joined. I'm philospically inclined so I asked him if Descartes was ripping off Socrates' "I only know that I know nothing" which could be interpreted as "I doubt everything except my existence". It's a topic that came up the other day on Lemmy. He said no, Socrates was just saying he was wiser than everyone else because he wasn't deluded about his abilities.

I asked him about Descartes' relationship to solipsism reply: Descartes wasn't a solipsist because his god wouldn't deceive him like that, Descartes' god is real because of the ontological argument. Which one's that again?...

I kinda just felt like I was making him do his job...

I forget what does the I stand for again?

20 per month is 240 per year... But I doubt that changes your feelings.

It was obviously a tragedy to anyone that watched it, but did they know that before they watched?

Yes the issue is that he pushed it downwards a bit, and also the ball gives some of its energy to the hammer. This means that the hammer is travelling faster and thus goes higher than he expected.
