Would stop you from getting out of the driver seat, but wouldn’t stop you from taking a nap in the driver seat.

The thing is, what you are suggesting would mean that everyone who is a victim of something horrible should have the right to take their anger out on any innocent bystander and get a pass on whatever damage they inflict. That doesn’t seem healthy for society. It’s one thing to give people some leeway when they are…

Shaming the theater for seeking costs from the families is no better than shaming the families for seeking damages from the theater. Each gets their day in court to determine whether they deserve their claim. Except, in the case of the families, they went after a target that did no wrong to them, and in the case of…

Doesn’t this figure represent the cost to the theater of those families pursuing legal action against them even though they did nothing wrong? I feel like I’m mostly OK with this, depending on how aggressively they seek payment. Anyone who jumped on board trying to get a payout or place blame on what amounts to an…

I think the most reasonable complaint has been against cases where people who were unaffiliated prior to the start of campaigns were not allowed to register for a party and vote for a nominee. It’s a system that fails to welcome in potential new members of the party who are drawn by a particular candidate.

Until you come home one day, open your closet, and find all that shit stuffed in there for some reason...

Those ‘few’ things are rather significant. Voting together 93% of the time says little, since that 93% likely consists of a lot of boring but necessary stuff that nobody would oppose. There’s less of a percentage difference between human and chimp DNA, but that little difference goes a long way.

I don’t recall Clinton having a significantly different platform from Obama in 08, so there was no reason for her to stay in till the end and make platform demands. Sanders is a completely different situation, and there’s quite a few supporters that aren’t going to automatically move to Clinton’s camp unless she makes…

Well, you’re making a bit of a leap about how the convention will go. It’s a possibility, but I’d say it’s far from guaranteed. Nevada is the only example I’m aware of where such a thing happened (and they didn’t burn anything down, I’ll note). So, it’s just as likely that it’s just a result of Nevada being a…

Nah. I doubt the majority (although maybe the loudest) of Bernie’s supporters would need much convincing to support Hillary over Trump. She has the advantage of running against someone who is the antithesis of rational behavior. So, all she has to do is give a nod to the fact that almost half of the Democrats’ support…

The problem is we have a two party system, where one party is rather conservative, and the other is rather moderate. Liberals end up having to compromise twice. Once by supporting a party with a platform significantly removed from their preferences, and a second time when that party needs to compromise with the other…

She didn’t get the nomination yet. I’m sure he will endorse her and vote for her... after the convention. Until then, he’s still an important message candidate and leverage for liberals to pull the Democratic party to the left.

Nader didn’t run as a Dem in 2000. Bernie isn’t running a third party bid now. Sooo.... no real relation, here. After the convention we can work on unifying, with the winner (Hillary) needing to adjust platform whatever way will work to get the general vote. In this case, I’m betting the best way to get the general…

There’s still a whole lot of parents out there who aren’t teaching these things to their kids, and probably raising hell any time someone else even considers doing it for them.

Never played the original, but enjoyed the remake two generations back.

Aw, come now, ‘mounting’ would have been far better than ‘climbing’. Everyone knows that this achievement is known as mounting the D.

Maybe I’m odd, but I can’t imagine having a problem with someone I’ve reached boyfriend/girlfriend stage touching my genitals pretty much any time anywhere. If I’m cuddling my girlfriend on the couch, and she pokes my boner, I might look quizzically at her, but that’s about it. So I was confused by this as well.…

Since when does a $15 minimum wage, national single payer healthcare, free college tuition, and regulating Wall Street focus almost exclusively on middle class white people? Middle class aren’t going to be helped much by raising minimum wage, and most of them already have healthcare. The rest helps everybody. So,…

To be fair, our nation was founded by people who got violent when they pointed out that the rules weren’t fair and were ignored when attempting to address them peacefully.

That and a respectable height. Nothing will shrivel your balls and send a shiver up your spine like leaning forward slightly to wipe your hindquarters and feeling your tip take a dive, because some designer of toilets somewhere underestimated the need for clearance between the seat and the water line. *shiver*
