I’m going to rant here.

“I stand behind you in line at the store with a smile on my face...and a gun under my shirt which I occasionally stroke and pet like I’m masturbating with it in public, and you are none the wiser, yet you are much less safer for having me next to you. I probably won’t shoot you. My gun won’t pull it’s own trigger. I…

In most cases where citizens who are not police officers have taken down a mass shooter, those citizens have been unarmed. They just tackle the shooter, like Bill Badger did. Mass shootings are terrifying, and there is nothing you can do that guarantees you will survive one, but unarmed citizens can and have saved…

No. I will die creating a crossfire that increases the chances of collateral damage and causes first respondents to have more difficulty sorting out who was the original killer and who just believe themselves to be Rambo.

Hmm, that lovely poem is missing something ... maybe about how the person most likely to die from a gun is the gunowner? Maybe something about how in the ensuing panic, they'll probably be more likely to hurt someone with friendly fire than take out the assailant?

I am so tired of this bullshit on my facebook feed:

“I stand behind you in line at the store with a smile on my face...and a gun under my shirt and you are none the wiser, yet you are safer for having me next to you. I won’t shoot you. My gun won’t pull it’s own trigger. It is securely holstered with the trigger…

Yeah, but we did have assholes who felt that 20 dead kids were less important than their right to own the sort of weaponry that can kill a room in minutes.

At least no one went on twitter after Sandy Hook and said it was great that those dirty babies got wiped off the face of the earth because they’re sinning against god or whatever. Everything is terrible.

She’s making me crush on her so fucking hard, but for real, tho, if literally NOTHING was changed after 20 babies were murdered, why do we expect anything to happen now? This is depressing as fuck.

God bless Sam Bee. She really is the rightful heir to the Daily Show—even if she’s doing her own show now. She’s the person who I look to now for her take on news events, who I can count on for catharsis.

This baffles me. It’s so incredibly gross and it’s probably what the person who sexually assaulted me when I was 14 would say, too. Except he was a peer, he made me trust him and then abused me and nothing was done.

My husband was a total spaz as a youngster (his assumption about those years) and honestly had very…

22 life year sentences but could be out in 25 years.

Far more common than who thought? Because I’m pretty sure most women are not surprised by the news that when rapists get away with one rape, they go commit more. That’s what happens when a society doesn’t take rape as seriously as it should.

So you’re saying the Stanford rapist has either done it before or will do it again? Shocking. Good thing he only got 6 months for that 20 minutes of action, since I’m sure he will never again be a threat to society.

What are you saying?! You think all Braavosi look alike?!?

literally every person in braavos is on my shit list right now for not HELPING THE CHILD WHO IS PROFUSELY BLEEDING FROM THE ABDOMEN AND CLEARLY NEEDS ASSISTANCE

only a rapist would think like that—that by getting drunk all she was doing was offering up an opportunity to any passing dude capable of raping an unconscious woman (like you—because you saw it as an opportunity too, and proved that by making this comment). at least you know yourself, right? cool. you should go look…

That’s exactly what youre doing.

But??

Yep. That quote from the judge -
