Yeah, that's one of my favorite justifications. If the situation has deteriorated to the point where the US government has declared open season on its own citizens, drone strike beats assault rifle every time.

The UK's gun deaths per capita are a fraction of the US's, so, yeah, looks like it has worked pretty well.

Call me crazy, but I'm thinking a paper founded by a guy who claimed to be the messiah may not be a totally reliable source.

If things get so bad that global civilization ends, a couple of guns aren't going to do the trick.

I mean… there's a huge swap-meet sort of thing that happens in the middle of the Arizona desert every year, where you can very easily buy guns. Hell, multiple booths advertise same-day concealed carry permits.

Er, how is it a myth?

Jet fuel can't melt snow.

If you can be "indoctrinated" by Parks and Rec, you might be a god damn idiot.

No, these stupid people should be called out for their stupid thoughts, so that others don't fall into the same stupid lines of thinking. Mocking them helps make sure well-meaning people Don't do what Donny Don't does.

It's estimated that, so far, 108 billion humans have lived. Assuming around half of those were/are men interested in ladies, these dudes are crappier at talking to women than about 54,000,000,000 men in all of history.

Slashdot still works pretty well. I mean, the actual content is crap and a lot of the commenters are frustratingly obtuse, but the system itself is okay.

It may also be that disqus is a crappy, buggy pile of crap that manages to be only slightly better than kinja.

"I've never felt oppressed before. Is it fun? I'm going to try it out."

And to think some people were upset when Kennedy was elected.

Their claims are so absurd. It's like… just look at the demographics of, say, Congress, and tell me men aren't still in charge.

Er… no? Obi-Wan dies pretty quickly, and even though he's known that the Force is a thing for like… three days, he somehow channels it well enough to make an impossible shot that several pilots couldn't, and they've presumably flown an X-Wing more than once. Also, he's secretly the bad guy's long lost son.

If you have to assert over and over that your blog is for "heterosexual masculine men", you should probably go ahead and suck that first dick.

As an addendum to the spoiler thing: people on social media who don't realize there's a west coast, god dammit.

So what you're saying is you wouldn't want to be part of any club that would have you as a member.

The idea that there are people who don't remember a time before constant fear and privacy invasion is scary to me. I was 11 when 9/11 happened, so I'm close to the cutoff, but I still have clear memories of how things changed.
