But in Orlando the terrorist killed a bunch of gay people. It was very conflicting for conservative voters.

But...this isn’t the best the terrorists “have got.” Do you recall that time not so long ago (in historical terms) where 2,996 people died from one of these acts. Or the multiple hundreds killed in the past year and a half in Europe?

It also isn’t “scared” to suggest we need to take steps to ameliorate the risk of…

I like decriminalization laws. they are good for everyone. I do not like street level officers getting to choose whether to charge criminally or civilly. We all know that ends with selective enforcement against minorities.

Philip Rivers. Russell Wilson. Mike Glennon. Jacoby Brissett. Let’s face it, NC State must be the premier QB college in the land.

My reason for saying he brandished a weapon was because, as the story stands now, the cops were responding because a passing motorist felt they had shown the gun while trying to rob them (reason for initial 911 call) and then the police say he had it in his hand again during the fatal encounter with police. I fully…

An open carry state doesn’t give anyone special rights to brandish a weapon. In fact, in handgun safety class they specifically stress to you that choosing to carry a weapon gives you more of a responsibility, not less. There are very specific rules on how to interact with law enforcement when you have a weapon for…

I also feel terrible for the kid’s family. It’s never good to lose a loved one regardless of the circumstances. Having come from a household with a large presence of firearms (from antique to modern) and a history in hunting, I was around guns often, but was always taught an immense amount of respect for them. I would…

Yeah, our global fisheries have been doing this work for us for decades.

There’s an idiot here, but you just haven’t realized yet that it is you. The whole point of the article about “strokin’ it” is all these finance bros (or failed finance bros really which is how you become a finance journalist instead) trying to use industry jargon to make a point that laymen can obviously see as well…

As much as a hate Trump, I kind of hate this even more. While it does look untoward, this isn’t at all different from millions of other political donations given from powerfully connected people on either side of the aisle. If we really want to get upset about that then every politician and major donor should be in…

Use it or lose it. It's the new MAD.

This is a great idea and event. I wish the clothes weren’t ugly.

Get out of here. I don’t even like Hillary and I have more respect for her than that. This woman has helped run the free world. She can’t handle a memorial ceremony? Whether you say you aren’t being sexist or not, I question whether you’d ask that of a male politician. Hillary was Sec of State. She is more used to…

Statutes of limitations have been a legal concept for about 1000 years and aren’t a good idea to go away from. As people have already pointed out, over time evidence degrades, memories get worse and crimes generally become more difficult to prove. Also, although it seems callous, it helps keep the court system running…

Well, yeah...it’s Cornell.

This is actually a large part of the reason Republicans oppose early voting efforts. Republicans tend to have the type of jobs that allow them to take time off to vote (or attend rallies) whereas the Democratic base, with a less affluent working core, often doesn’t have that luxury. If you minimize alternative times…

As a NC State fan getting ready to head to the season opener in a few hours, this is not the alumni video I needed to start my sports day.

Yeah, wouldn’t trade it for the world. Every escape, he would end up over the fence and across the road in the neighbor’s cattle pasture with the cows.

To be fair, growing up my family adopted one of these “blue-ribbon” horses and...they are a real pain in the ass. It was so high strung and always trying to break out of its stall. But man, that guy could fly when he wanted to.

I thought the Joker’s mischievous micturition was canon. Grew up in the South. Age 4 would have been 1992.
