Yes really as I was not referring to war situations, you were.

Yes, you said you were going to "demolish me" five years ago and I just laughed at you.
That makes me a pacifist. Hoot !

You only need winter tires (snow tires) on the back if it is a rear drive (two wheel drive) car or truck.
If it is an awd or 4x4 then you should always replace all four tires that are all the same size.

Because you like to hear yourself talk would be my guess.

Not in all cases.
Different States have different guidelines for when deadly force can be used.
Check it out before you plug someone.

And yet another personal character diminishing and shaming attack.

My name is Jim, not Jesus.
Why do you keep comparing me with Jesus.

More Diminishing insults and look who is whining with his blame game.

Really easy to fix, if everyone would just stop attacking people with their hostile immature aggressions of insults, diminishments and shaming.
Game over for the bullies that insist on ruining the atmosphere here with their personal character attacks.
Peace on Earth, Good Will Towards Men.

In a recent statement, Belarusian leader Lukashenko claimed he had brought more than a dozen nuclear warheads into the country.

"Many say, 'Oh, this is a joke, no one brought anything in.' They did.
And the fact that they call it a joke means they missed it, they didn't even notice how we brought them here," Lukashenko said.
He also threatened to use nuclear weapons if any country crossed Belarus' borders, warning his "enemies, friends, and rivals."

Very true.
Another huge factor that we are over looking here is that most personal vehicles in America are either AWD or 4 WD so you really don't need snow tires.
There are very few rear wheel drive cars in States that get much snow.
Those that do get a lot of snow it is imperative that RW drive cars have snow tires on the rear of the car.

That's not only because of the tread design but also dedicated tires are made of a much softer rubber which gives them more grip.
Back fifty years ago before AWD cars, I always bought two used rims to mount my snow tires on.
In this way you could simply change your snow tires on and off your car without re-mounting them each time saving not only the wear and tear on the tires but the extra money to do it.

I don't care what you like or don't like, really.
I don't need or want your approval, honest.
Blow it out your ear.

Simple, don't because we all have heard you the first ten times that you don't think I am a Christian.
Doesn't change a thing no matter how hard you try to shame me about that.
You claim to be an atheist.
Do I come here every month and try to shame you about it ?
Hell no because I don't care what you are.
You however want to play a Karen shaming my Faith.
We've had this same conversation many times and I think the last time I told you to go play with your pussy.
Don't worry about my Christianity, Karen, because it is of no concern of yours,
Got it this time so you can put it to rest ?
Now go away......Git !

That trait shows a very insecure individual. (A mama's boy)

Very well said however his British ego will never allow that to happen.
He trashes thread after thread by going off -topic with his childish insults.
A real nuisance every night at 10 o'clock sharp he shows up here unsupervised with his insults.

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]

All season tires came out 45 years ago and since then I buy a new set every 3 years or so.
So I have bought 12 or 15 sets of them and do my research on them.
So that makes me an expert compared to you.
A set of 20" Michelin Defender LTX M/S for my vehicle will run over $2000 for the four tire set including tax.
I don't need that quality so mine run me about $1200 for four that do the trick.
Also after a tire is four or five years old the rubber hardens in them causing them to lose their grip in starting and stopping no matter how much tread is on them.
A vehicle left in the sun will harden the tires rubber even quicker.
And I see you avoided admitting I was right about snow tires wearing out faster and getting less gas mileage than an all season tire.

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]


If they are on little toy cars like you drive in Poland, perhaps.
My vehicle is a 4x4 so my 20" all season tires work just fine in two feet of snow.
Your little puddle jumper would bottom out in two feet of snow no matter what kind of tires you had on it.

Oh but I do, snow tires require more fuel for several reasons.
1. Heavier - deeper tread that causes more friction and rolling resistance
2. Snow tires have softer rubber decreasing the life of the tire in warmer weather
3. A snow tire will decrease gas mileage by 5 to 15%.
(Google it)

You stick to indoctrinating kids with your Woke b.s. and I will stick to being a tire expert. :-)))

More diminishing and shaming of my Faith by an Atheist. lol
The day I have to defend my faith to you will be the same day hell freezes.
As I have explained to you gently before, I was mocking Lyzko with his Woke name calling when I said that. ie. bias, racist and the rest of his Leftist Woke words.
I also have explained to you that every mortal man on this earth sins, including Christians yet YOU judge others which is also a sin.
You are a sinner too, Karen so quit being a hypocrite.
Why you keep trying to project that Christians don't sin is most hilarious.
Why my Christianity rattles you so much shows that demons live in you.
Now quit being as thick as pig shlt and let that sink into your pee brain, Love.
Class dismissed.
Oh, and have a Merry Christmas
Peace on Erath, Good Will Towards Men

Here is one of my credible sources and you decide.
Full Measure which is a news documentary.
Google it for yourselves
It is offered on t.v. also.
Here is their latest on Long Covid and the possible link to the Covid shots as research continues.
Titled, Covid Concerns

fullmeasure.news/newest-videos/season-9-roundtable-covid-concerns#

Now don't be surprised to see jon or Karen respond with a diminishing remark about my source.
Thats what the problem is Pawian.

News / Coronavirus in Poland - part 2 [599]


The problem is that jon diminishes everything about Covid issues that he disagrees with.
He never posts his sources, just his self authoritative personal opinion.
I try to inform people about Covid and the Covid shots.
My sources are extremely credible and I would like to share them to help and inform people.
jon ( commonly called, "Mr. Twister"), takes posts off - topic by twisting the focus of Covid shots into painting the picture that I am an antivaxxer against all vaccine like the Polio and MMR vaccines .which is not true.
That is what the problem is and thanks for asking Pawian.
With that said, lets move on before he closes this thread.

Yes, by the Woke and Atheists that refuse to acknowledge the reason for the season.
Anytime they hear the word Christ as in Christmas they start trembling in fear.
When someone says Happy Holidays to me, I always respond with, "And a Merry Christmas to you." 🎅

jon look, we know this is your forum and that you are the Administrator but you shouldn't try to control the narrative with your authority here.
You need to face the facts about Covid.
Now lets move on.
Quoting:
COVID-19 virus likely originated from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, where it may have been manufactured as a chimera.
Lockdowns, mask mandates, social distancing, and vaccine mandates were not based on sound science and did more harm than good.
Natural immunity exists for COVID-19, as it does for other viruses.
And President Trump's "racist" travel bans likely saved lives.
Isn't amassing how most of what you called conspiracy theories came true.

You spend $5 on a card, the recipient takes a 15 second look at it, shakes it a few times to see if any money falls out and tosses it into the fire.
You are better off sending a text or e-mail in this day and age that can be deleted by the push of a button.
No waste of time, paper or stamp.
For us Christians it is, "Merry Christmas".
For the non Christians it is, "Happy Holidays".

All season tires gives a smoother ride, much better gas mileage and last much longer than winter tires.
And yes, they work very well on snowy roads.

I have all season Bridgestone Duelers on my truck that run about $1200 + for the four of them.
They are one of the best tire brands around the world.
Bridgestone Corporation is primarily a Japan based multinational company with approximately 181 production facilities distributed across 24 countries.

I guess your reading comprehension failed you again
What I said was:

Doesn't matter what kind of tires you have driving on ice, you are not going to stop.
Studded tires and chains are outlawed in my State so put that one to rest too.

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]


If you were here where I live you would shutter right now.
High winds with a wet heavy snow.
If you drive on it, it turns to ice.
The roads are glare ice, all the schools are closed, and I am on my last bottle of bourbon and can't get to town.
We have had well over three feet of snow in the last two days and it is still snowing.
I am literally snowed in and can't get out if I wanted to.
Poland has cake walk winters compared to Northern Michigan winters.
These are the days that you rest up from the rest of the world.
Shut your phone off, get in in your recliner chair with your cat on your lap, cover him with a light blanket, turn a movie on and fall asleep.
I like gray days too but not as many as Poland has.
My bourbon bill would be astronomical if I lived in Poland.

Now if Diminishing Hairy Lazarus would have just listened to Poorhouse Jimmy and bought a hundred shares of Tesla at $254 he now, (seven weeks later) would have made himself a cool $10.000 which is more than he has ever made in a year.
