Not picking a side I just absolutely love that you’re willing to continue this argument after six years. You’re a hero.

It’s not about what it means to them. Taste is always contemporary.

The resilience against time of the objects in question has nothing to do with their status as an object of art. I’m also willing to believe that the mason who whacked them out of a block of stone was a different person ( the one who laid the foundation of it’s long lasting ;] ) than the one who ruined them with a…

This is the worst argument ever.

So you think people should be allowed to carry concealed in a nightclub/bar? That’s what Trump wants. Be clear on your position.

It’s really amazing, isn’t it? It speaks to the weird notion that we can defend ourselves against any threat. The NRA created that notion.

Most people who are members of the NRA don’t buy all of the shit that the NRA is peddling (this is borne out by numerous polls showing active NRA members overwhelmingly supporting the most basic gun reforms that are currently on the table, like there is more support among the NRA membership for those gun reform…

A lot of the membership actually disagree strongly with what the spokespeople are saying,

The only thing that I would think might change the laws would be a shooter going after Congress. Republicans, specifically. I mean, children, church people, newscasters on live tv. NOPE. But maybe sheer self-interest might motivate a sea change.

I say we find the address of the mansion and stand outside of his house with photos of the dead every day.

A lot of the membership actually disagree strongly with what the spokespeople are saying, possibly because a lot of the membership become members when they purchase a gun. I had a friend who was given a rifle for her birthday, and she received a FREE membership without applying for it. Now she gets their spam and it…

GUNS! GUNS! GUNS! GIVE EVERY HUMAN A GUN! WHAT COULD GO WRONG? HUMANS ARE VERY RELIABLE AND NEVER VIOLENT. IF EVERYONE CARRIES A GUN. PROBLEM SOLVED! WILL JUST HAVE SHOOTOUTS EVERY TIME WE GET PISSED AT EACH OTHER. IT’LL BE THE OLD WEST ALL OVER AGAIN. ROAD RAGE? BANG YOUR DEAD! BUMPED INTO ME? YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!…

This needs more stars

I don’t use the word hate lightly. I also try to remember that most people aren’t good or bad, everyone has some humanity, etc, etc.

@toxic: YOUR MOM.

@toxic: So....having an opinion is ignorant?

@toxic: Dude, they're tacky. I don't have to be able to make something to have an opinion regarding it. Otherwise manufacturer would just make things however they wanted and I'd have to accept it, because who am I to tell someone else what I like?

@toxic: Ah, the age-old fallacy that says you can't hold an opinion on something unless you can do better.

I am bad with my art history, but would it be ok to assume the statues in the movie Gladiator should have been painted to reflect something like this? (I know I know, Greek vs. Roman...)

@picrad: urghh... i prefer the black n white drabs than all this tacky yellow n pink!!!
