    Thank you, Captain Psychology. 

    I grew up in the country. Almost every house we went into as kids had guns in it. Forty years later there hasn’t been an accidental shooting anywhere in the area. There has been one murder in that time. With a shotgun.

    Having a gun is the laziest, easiest way to feel like you have some measure of control over a chaotic world, but it’s a false sense of security that doesn’t protect against much of anything.”

    His hobby doesn’t contribute to any deaths at all. He isn’t responsible for other people using their guns for murder. I own a collection of baseball bats. Sometimes other people use baseball bats to bash other people in the head instead of hitting baseballs which is one of my hobbies. I am not responsible for that. He

    I’ve got bad news. He’s going to be re-elected. Trust me. I didn’t vote for him and won’t vote for him in 2020, but he’s going to lose the popular vote and win the electoral college again. 

    Now I want a tour of the White House led by Trump. It would be an amazing experience to watch him in full sociopath mode just making stuff up and waiting for you to stroke his ego.

    When two players are both basically standing upright and they collide, how are they supposed to avoid having their helmets hit together?

    I don’t understand why people want to boycott advertisers just to try to shut down someone who has a different world view. It’s really petty and juvenile. I don’t agree with everything Ben or Ellen Degeneres or Stephen Colbert say, but I don’t go around calling for boycotts every time they say something dumb. (And

    Going back in time and killing just one person, no matter how seemingly inconsequential they might be, in a different way than how they originally died would result in drastic changes in history. Just going back in time and not interacting with anyone would change things.

    Sometimes I agree with Ben, sometimes I don’t. Unfortunately we live in an era where we go, “Oh, he’s a liberal/conservative and I am the other, so I automatically hate everything you say.” Instead of just saying, “Yeah, Ben...bad analogy. Let’s get some coffee and discuss this further,” we’re shitting on him on

    Yep. He’s evil because the internet outrage machine says he is. All based on one photograph and one person’s version of the story. Everything that has come afterwards that has expanded, clarified, and refuted that original story has been ignored.

    Right! If only they had spent more time learning that a guy beating a drum in your face is trying to do you a favor!

    I was one of the people who was initially angry with the kids when the story first broke, but this guy is full of crap. He’s changed his story more than once. He claimed he went up to the boys to play the drum and diffuse the situation with some prayer song and he made no effort to leave the area when he was

    Romo is a great guy to have in the booth. I have actually learned more about how the game works in the last few years by listening to him than I did in the previous 35 years of being a football fan.

    This is not an accurate comparison at all. A black guy walking into a drug store and sitting at the counter was taking a huge personal risk and he most assuredly would be subject to aggressive and threatening behavior and not one single racist in that drug store would be claiming they were a victim. And these kids,

    He spends too much time meditating and enlightening everyone who follows his YouTube channel. He doesn’t have time to be a dad.

    They offered to meet with “the victim” and he refused.

    I don’t think these guys were victimized angels, but it was clear later that there was a hell of a lot more going on in that incident then just a bunch of white guys harassing a Native American.  

    Let’s just get real. Most people on both sides of this ridiculous story only see what they want to see. Whatever narrative confirms their bias that’s the one they will cling to. They will interpret everything they see in each video according to what they already believe about people who wear MAGA hats, or black guys,

    No one is decrying the abominable comments of the Black Israelites, but the white kids were judged guilty already, because they were white kids with MAGA hats and that automatically means, in the internet outrage machine, that they are racist. Forget getting the actual story right.
