I’ve been thinking, also, a lot about gun ownership.

I think that is the entire point. Everyone’s a responsible driver, until they aren’t. Everyone’s a responsible parent, until they aren’t. Everyone’s a responsible drunk, until they aren’t. I really see absolutely zero flaw with that argument....

I suspect we may find out she left with Rhaegar willingly (after finding out she was pregnant) but Robert’s rage created the tale of her abduction and possible rape at Rheagar’s hands.

the gun Sheats used to kill her daughters was a “family heirloom,” inherited from her great-grandfather to protect her family. Her daughters will be buried this week in Alabama.

If she went willingly, then why did she need to be rescued? Would they go to those lengths to guarantee an arranged marraige?

She didn’t need to be rescued. She was likely hiding out there until Rhaegar came back. Unfortunately, Robert killed him, so he didn’t come back. Then she gave birth. She was obviously gone for months. Arthur Dayne and the Kingsguard had it on orders to protect Lyanna and the child with their lives, and they did. They…

She absolutely wanted to be with Rhaegar. Robert’s Rebellion was a result of Robert’s arrogance. He could never imagine she’d choose a Targ over him. Thus, she must have been raped and kidnapped.

In the books, there are several indications that she went willingly, and wasn’t so much taken as ran away with. She was a wild and independent girl, not someone to just do what she was told, it shows she was quite taken by Rhaegar at the tourney of Harrenhall even weeping at the beauty of his music, and she didn’t…

Yeesh. I clicked over to the Daily Fail link, and yep, they look like a disaster.

Bouchard continued, “Yeah, I don’t know. Nike didn’t give me any other talking points for this dumb dress shirt thing. It’s easy to move around in, which I love — I hate tennis clothes that bind my arms to my sides or hobble my legs. I think the dress is really nice, and I also think it was nice of Nike, my corporate…

I don’t throw the s word around lightly but this dress is fucking sexist and I hate it. These women are athletes, not sleepy baby dolls.

“It’s nice” is usually what I say about things I don’t really like but feel like I should try to be at least slightly positive about for the sake of others feelings.

First thing I thought of, lol. Jesus, though, can’t they just let these amazing female athletes just be athletes? They’re competing in tennis not pouring goddamn tea.

Why would Ned change the child’s name when it was just given to him by his dying mother? Her naming was obviously influenced by Robert’s vengeance against the Targs, so she would name him something inconspicuous. She knows she is dying, and she knows that Ned is the only person who can protect her child, so she gives…

I’m sure most of them don’t give a shit (my brother is one of those, as is my cousin), but it’s undeniable that anytime there is some new change like this being made there are plenty of Marines who care enough to bitch about it online (a friend of mine does this all the fucking time). So sure, most likely don’t care.…

I’ve noticed a lot of the time when it’s like ‘the damn sjw crybabies’ it’s like ‘I swear I’ve heard more complaining from the people complaining about the ‘sjw crybabies’ than the people bringing up the issue

Sort of, it’s more my sister and her in-laws. But yeah.

I genuinely laughed out loud at that quote. He doesn’t even realize that the cry baby culture he’s talking about is literally himself and all the other men who can’t deal with a job title unless is quite literally has the word MAN. Maybe he would prefer if we called it the crymen culture?

I always have to laugh at the type of response that amounts to “x group are crybabies that can’t handle shit” and meanwhile can’t see how ridiculous it is that they are so upset and aggrieved over the issue/ change themselves. So, you are a little crybaby bitch, too, right? Like if the name is such an unimportant,…

I think he’s an idiot, but according to this article, not as much of an idiot as circumstances seem to suggest:
