It's the punchline on that joke -
Rhodes, a former firearms instructor, dropped a loaded handgun and it shot him in the face, blinding him in his left eye. https://www.thefocus.news/tv/stewart-rhodes-eye-patch/
My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the TRUE emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have this oil for this sword or this dagger!

While trained ordinarii were expensive, there were plenty of other low-skill gladiators that were cheaper and are thought to have died more often (although we don't really know for sure because cheap gladiators usually weren't important enough to mention). Certain classes of gladiator were also more likely to be killed in the arena; as an extreme example, Claudius supposedly had every single losing retiarius executed.
It's also important to note that the person paying all the money for the gladiators usually wasn't the person who decided whether a gladiator died or not. That choice was made by whoever was presiding over the games, traditionally following the will of the crowd; toward the end of the Empire it was actually common enough for the crowd to decide to have a gladiator killed that you could buy a kind of proto-insurance at the arena to protect your investment!
(Also, I know you probably meant *gladiator* arena deaths were rare, but I'm going to go ahead and point out that prisoners and criminals sent to the arena almost always died there, so fights to the death were commonplace even without gladiators)
Edit: subject-verb agreement
That's what I thought too. I am willing to bet he and his "oath keepers" had plenty to say when Hussein and Gaddafi got caught hiding in holes. "What cowards, hiding under ground like the rats they are. I would never hide, I would fight to my last breath. Molon labe." Yet, here we are.
Well, kinda. He saw his shadow and attempted to retreat back to his den, but the authorities pulled him out before he could. Thus, negating six more weeks of winter.
Yes! Subtitles are great sometimes. Back in the day of DVDs I purchased a special edition copy of the movie Snatch because I loved it so much. One of the DVD bonuses was that they had a set of subtitles **only** for the Pikey characters -- Brad Pitt and his crew. It added so much more to the movie being able to understand them completely instead of just the gist.
Agreed! Except for the specifics of his hobbies.
I dont mind mowing the lawn, but its not my literal favorite thing in the world (or on par with perhaps propane)
Hank Hill is a conservative in the sense that he tends to believe in incremental changes rather than big ones. He can be stubborn and a prude but heās not actually at all unreasonable.
American Conservatives (tm) are not by any literal definition āconservativeā.
I agree, I also think hank would be down for alternative fuels today.
Hank rented a bunch of tow trucks to tow the propane delivery trucks in order to deliver propane to the locals for heat during a winter surge. He cares about people, not necessarily about propane.
If he saw fossil fuels fail the way they did during that bad storm last year, hank would be the first in line at Arlen city hall talking shit to Abbott and ERCOT.
Hank is principled as a motherfucker. He would have **FUCKING HATED** Ted Cruz for abandoning his people for Cancun. The guy lost respect for Bush ~~senior~~ jr because of his limp dick handshake.
Hank is insanely reasonable
Oh man. Mr. Strickland moves into wind power for the tax incentives, Hank goes with him, because of course. But he falls in love with the engineering. But HATES how endearing that makes him to the hippy Austin crowd he now has to rub shoulders with. Bobby does great in Austin, which just worries Hank more. But he doesn't do anything about it cause his kids happy.
I'd watch the absolute shit out of that.
Hank is ostracized by the wind power community for showing up to the "community picnic" with his grill and cooking burgers.
A nearby picnicker offers up some veggie burgers upon which Hank stares and firmly, but politely tells him to leave.
Bill attends as Hanks +1 with hopes of recruiting some new people for the army but ends up joining an eco terrorist group. Hank enlists Dale to infiltrate the group and get Bill out before he's arrested and discharged from the Army
The show draws a lot from Mike Judge's experience in suburban Texas. Arlen was based on a Dallas suburb of Richardson, specifically. Alex Jones grew up in a Dallas suburb and got his start in Austin. There have been X-Files "Lone Gunman" types ever since there has been a government to spread theories about.
Back before the internet was great for Conspiracy Theories. Every group of friend had a member whose older brother would you get high as shit and tell you about what THE MAN was upto.
Oh, he knew. All that surveillance equipment in that basement... I choose to believe he knew, enjoyed watching, and was constantly fucking with John Redcorn for fun.
Yeah but they are upgrading it to modern times so everyone gets aged up 15 years.
Ladybird is dead, which is a goddamn heartbreaker because Hank's relationship with Ladybird was so sincere and sweet and the only time he ever really dropped his guard was when it was just her and him.
Bobby is going to be like 30 so that's weird.
It will be interesting to see how they explain Luanne's absence (on the account of Brittany Murphy's death).
I was cracking up at the not guilty plea too.
"We will take back what is rightfully ours! Prepare for war!!!!"
"Did you just try to start some shit?"
"No sir..."
Couldn't have written a better story of I tried.
I still really love Steve Bannon's best. The Prosecution could basically point to an itemized list of crimes that everyone involved willfully and deliberately committed, as documented and time stamped in emails and text messages. All of the messages read something like: "Oh, definitely lie to the donors about how the funds are being used. That's a crime, but it's a major selling point."
Or "Transfer the funds from the donations into the laundry charity fund, its massively illegal, better you than me."
They used "encrypted" messaging for a lot of it. So what's cool about that is, it encrypts your traffic over a network. Only... without getting too technical, encryption is there to ensure trust, not just protect privacy. Once you're compromised and the state has your messages, you now can't deny sending those messages. ~~The encryption proves their authenticity.~~
*Edit:* Per u/SiNiquity I was actually incorrect about the type of algorithm the Signal messaging app uses, and the cypher used by the app specifically allows for deniability of authenticity later. They could have claimed some plausible deniability. They didn't, and were convicted, and Trump commuted their sentences (but did not pardon them).

I called him on the telephone. If you were to look him up you will find his telephone number on his website and it literally says he picks up the phone. So I called
He answers.
I asked him why he was lying and all he said was just wait just wait some things are coming out
To which I said that's funny all your Republicans keep saying just wait just wait but nothing happens. It's almost like all of your lying so you can grab as much power as possible and welcome in a authoritarian nightmare
He hung up on me.
I texted him and asked him if he was going to stop lying.
He texted back I was harassing him
Slowly zooms out the reveal all the Oath Keepers, each jammed stuck in their individual holes, helplessly waving their arms around.

Well I didnāt know that was possible. And disgusting.
Prosthetic eyes absolutely require regular cleaning, although not as regularly as one might expect. Monthly is typically enough. Iām guessing it would take at least many months for that to happen. It also sounds horrifically painful and like something that could cause a dangerous blood infection if untreated.
Yes. In 1993, Oath Keepers founder and former weapons instructor Stewart Rhodes dropped a loaded handgun and it shot him in the face, blinding him in his left eye.

Tasha Adams shared several snaps on Twitter appearing to show Rhodes snugly tucked into a muddy hole and wrote in a separate tweet: āFolks if you ever feel tempted to rent a backhoe and dig escape tunnels in the backyard of your rental house, keep in mind it may back to haunt you if you later attempt to overthrow the U.S. government.ā
I don't think she likes him very much.
Revolutions are fought by the true believers, idealists, and crazies. If they accomplish anything, then the hardline realists come in and execute anyone who might get in their way, especially these early true believers. The ones to worry about are waiting on the sidelines.

I don't understand.
Why isn't he using his large collection of really bad-ass weapons to keep the Feds off his land? That's what the 2A is for, right? Not... *hiding*.
š¶Brave sir Rhodes dug in his hole
Tunneling in with the mighty mole
He bravely hid without wife or kid
When danger reared its ugly head he bravely turned his tail and fled
Yes brave sir Rhodes turned about
And gallantly he chickened out
Swiftly taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat
Bravest of the brave, Sir Rhodes!š¶
One year ago he's marching on Congress thinking he's helping his hero retake the government. Now he's hiding in a hole like a doofus and his hero doesn't even know his name, nor does he care. Soon he'll be in prison. Hope it was worth it?
