Great. When you figure out how the 45% of us that don’t have guns are going to take them away from the 55% that do you let me know. Otherwise it’s just engaging in wishful thinking. I wish guns would go away too. They won’t. Now that we’ve established the reality, let’s operate within that system. I’m glad you…

I’m not sure what your comments have to do with responding to mine. I don’t like guns. I don’t own a gun. I’ve only ever held a gun once in my life. I agree that guns are dangerous. I agree that they should be heavily regulated, far more regulated than they currently are. I agree that steps should be taken to…

“To my knowledge at least, you never hear people demand a ban on cars or trucks after they’ve been used to kill people intentionally (which happened quite a few times recently).”

“Even better - just don’t have guns.” I really wish this interjection into gun discussions would go away. I’ve never owned a gun, and have only held a gun once during trial prep for a case involving a police officer. I have no personal desire for guns to be around. But we’ve got hundreds of millions of guns in…

Cars are designed to be driven, and when used as such are high velocity missiles. A car being driven on the sidewalk and running over people is doing exactly what it is intended to do- accelerating after the application of force to the accelerator. That’s as much a perversion of the intended use of the inanimate…

Olynyk went down easier than a house of cards in a hurricane. Dude deserves the NBA’s highest award for acting.

I’m with you up to a point. I think that anytime someone turns into a monster it’s a tragedy because but for their circumstances those same people likely could have turned out very differently. So the fact that Aaron Hernandez was a murderer and a monster doesn’t mean that we should be HAPPY that he’s dead- his life…

I never understood that scene. She walks back, sees a guy struggling with a droid, and she’s all upset and steals the droid from the guy. Why? What’s she so upset about? How does she know it’s not that guy’s droid? And then she refuses to sell BB-8 the next day despite being offered a massive amount of credits…

Fascinating! Thanks for sharing. I’m not sure if American stadiums have that installed yet, but when they do it’ll make this problem disappear.

Eh, probably because the penalty in Massachusetts is a maximum of $100 fine or a month in jail. So if this guy is a diehard fan that wants to go to games he’s A) likely to never be caught for doing so, and B) likely to face a pretty minor fine even if he is caught. I think it sends a symbolic message, but I don’t…

Glad to see this, but I’ve always wondered how they enforce this. I suppose you can prevent him from buying tickets, but he can just get a friend to buy them or buy them second hand. So is it on the ushers to check the faces of everyone coming in to the stadium and remember the face of every banned individual?

Umm, Tony Parker and Manu have been there since the early 2000s. I’m not sure they “built” a team of elders. More like “if you have a team of humans, eventually they’ll get older.” You must be thinking of the Lakers team that had Malone and Payton on it or something.

You suck McBain!

The O’s next time they come to the plate-

Sheesh, Mr. Christ sure gets petty and insulting when he starts arguing with his cranky self. Where’s the kindmessiah when you need him?

Tell me about it. Nothing is quite as dangerous to a pitcher’s personal safety as staring at home runs for a little while. Definitely warrants hurling a baseball at someone as hard as possible.

Maybe, just maybe, the fact that Obama is taking the money should serve as a wakeup call to progressives that bitching and moaning about this stuff is stupid. It wasn’t the majority of americans who thought that Clinton giving paid speeches was problematic- it was progressives who are just so outraged that some…

I’ll never understand how grown men can behave like this. I remember macho BS like this in high school, but after that most of us grew out of it. This whole “Hold me back bro! Hold me back!” nonsense should induce eye rolls in anyone with half a brain.

Gotcha. Thanks!

Not really. It hinges on what he was referring to when he said “it” wasn’t intentional. If he meant “I didn’t intend to cross check anyone at all” then sure, the latter comment refutes the former. But it seems much more likely that he was saying “I didn’t mean to hit him that hard in the head and potentially hurt…
