You mean Greenlanders don’t want to invite a fucker that’s trying to colonize them in for a spot of tea? Color me surprised.
Maybe they could try bribing homeless people with food again?
Maybe they should invite them in and give them the most pants-shitting sugar-free thing they have. I would not even want to be a fly on the wall on that ride home.
I don’t know if it has that effect normally or you mean it would be laced, but they probably wouldn’t eat a strong-smelling food in the first place. (Speaking for myself though, I sure would try as long as I know what it is.)
When will these fools be able to travel to when they’re not the vise-president, etc anymore?
American representatives have been going around knocking on one door after another in recent days to ask if they would like to have a visit from the vice president’s wife. Everywhere the answer was the same: “No, otherwise thank you,” says Steinmetz.
ahahaha! Greenlanders were far more polite than I would have been.
As an American, if they showed up at my front door the most polite thing I’d say to them would be the “fuck off and die” they’d hear right before I slammed the door.
Anyone uninvited gets the door slammed in their face, but I am rarely inspired to make a verbal statement as well.
There used to be an exception to the door slam for people selling girl scout cookies, but they don’t go door to door anymore.
My door mat says “GO AWAY!”, so I feel getting a door slammed in your face if you ring the doorbell is justified.
Protip: Learn to growl. When Jehova’s witnesses or suchlike knock, be very polite, tell them they’re welcome, how you’re happy they came to you to find the light Lucifer brings.
I went to a Catholic University.
I was never Catholic, and I was agnostic by the time I received my degree. However, there was a religion requirement, and one of the religion classes I took was taught by a Catholic priest.
He mentioned he loved when JWs knocked on his door. He’d invite them in, sit them down, and just debate them until they couldn’t stand it anymore and practically begged to leave.
It sounded like he treated it like an opportunity to convert them to catholicism, not because he expected them to convert as much as he just thought it was funny.
Alternative to learning to growl:
I’d bet at least some were a lot more graphic than what was reported. I’d really love to like, run into a Greenlander in this thread whose door was knocked on and hear what they actually said. There had to be at least a few “go fuck yourself with a rusty crowbar” type responses
I’m proud of my inuit brothers and sisters. The Americans may finally fucking get the hint. Apparently it wasn’t enough to see that one inuk rip up American dollars when those cringe American youtubers came to give out maga hats an free money earlier this year.
Trump and his subhumans thought that the greenland-denmark conflict would benefit them, but honestly, it’s got nothing to do with them. We have tried to sort out our differences while America has been an annoying mosquito trying to make our relationship troubles about them. Dumbasses. Greenland is their own people. They are their own nation and someday it will be official, but we aren’t there yet and while they have a lot of issues with Denmark, there’s no doubt they prefer us over America until they can stand on their own feet. It was never a question.
Particularly as the US has a no backsies law, which makes it illegal for any US state or territory to gain independence in the future.
External self-determination cares little about national laws. That’s kinda the whole point. The real question is what type of conditions need to be met before a right to external self-determination arises and is recognized by other countries. In general, most countries don’t recognize a right to unilateral seccession under any condition. At the same time, it is also agreed that if a state were to make the practice of internal self-determination virtually impossible or meaningless, then a right to external self-determination should arise. In which case any “no backsies” rule under US national law (even the constitution) may be seen as a breach of fundamental rights.
With independence, it usually comes down to who has the bigger stick (in both material and ideational terms). The are definitely scenarios in which US states can make a valid legal case for independence but the conditions for that still haven’t been met as most international lawyers will agree that Americans in all states are afforded the right to internally self-determine. For now. Things are changing quickly.
It did not. No Parliament can bind a future Parliament. Indeed the vast majority of possessions gained independence via legal means.
They couldn’t find one fascist nutjob? That’s impressive, honestly
That’s how you deal with an american cunt.
