“I’m not living without guns, it’s just that simple.” 

What the fuck? This little precious package of privilege somehow thinks that *she* of all people needs to be strapped to the motherfucking teeth to cut it in America?

If that were true (it’s not), what would that say about this country?

Jesus

You’ve completely nailed it. A regional, generational horror is what made the book scary. The voices talking to Bev through the sink drain just blew my mind as a kid. 

That methodology...totally makes sense?

Your argument here is bending over backwards to ignore white male gun violence and instead point at “the blacks.” Get some therapy, my proto-racist friend. 

“Statistics show that since 1982, the majority of mass shootings — 54 percent — were committed by white men, according to data from Mother Jones.

“Political correctness is out of control and destroying free speech. Stop attacking and silencing people who disagree with you.”

“Look at all the blacks killing blacks!”

No shit, genius. Do you know what that is? Because people kill the people that they live in the same communities as - overwhelmingly, black people kill black people, and…

“The whole article was about how and why he made himself do it.”

Uh huh. And my entire point was that *he made himself do it.* 

LOL fuck Jason  Miller

Nate, I really enjoy your writing, and I agree with almost everything you’re saying here: fans are obnoxiously entitled, athletes are held to impossible and contradictory standards, etc.

But...

At the pro level, nobody makes you do this. Lots and lots of jobs are physically/mentally dangerous, and pay really shitty to…

You’re not? Because it ought to be really fucking obvious. 

Or pants. 

As a Kansan, I would visit the Grand Magaryon. 

“For all intents and purposes is the usual form of the phrase meaning in every practical sense. For all intensive purposes is a fairly common derivation from the original phrase.” 

You do you, guy.
