They aren't mutually exclusive, but one doesn't excuse the other.

I need POW!GRL to sing me awake every morning. That voice of hers is better than a shot of coffee.

why can't we ask why young white men do most the mass shooting in our country? If middle aged black women were always the ones walking into shopping malls and taking down whoever they saw, there is no doubt in my mind there would be a severe crackdown on letting them buy guns AND severe suspicion wherever they went. …

well maybe she had a surgery to bring her virginity back for the wedding.

I know this probably will sound like slut shaming but white Kim? REALLY?????

I don't think she/he is complaining about her bike ride....she's saying this is where she lives and it's close to her. Stop being an asshole for the sake of it.

Well the OP is lamenting a tragedy that happened in her neighborhood. She might be feeling a little "wow, that could've been me" after a traumatic event most people garner sympathy.

"Dear god, what did I do to deserve this?!"

John Travolta's simply trying to prove to people that the soul patch isn't the worst possible facial hair choice available.

So Toni Braxton believes that God punished her son because she got an abortion. That's some next level shit there.

Poor Toni Braxton. That is internalized Tea Party/Christian Right misogynist self-hatred right there. I hope she finds some peace and forgives herself.

dear god why

Lashing out at the appearance of someone who snubbed you: The province of pre-adolescent boys everywhere.

Yes! This is exactly what I thought of, because his argument is spot on. Either you're speaking out against it or you're complicit. If you are one of the ones speaking up then obviously this isn't about you. Be an ally in words and actions and you will assuredly be seen as such. Then you'll never have to worry about…
