How odd is it that Billy was by FAR the most relevant Bush in the 2016 election?

I don’t know about all states, but on the California Megan’s Law site it will absolutely tell you what crimes sex offenders were convicted for. I’m guessing 99% of men who claim they’re only on the sex offenders registry because of public urination are full of shit.

Understood, but I suspect it was an older man who’s fatherly instincts kicked in when he saw the woman chained up in a cage and just said what was in his mind. Not saying it’s right OR wrong, just saying, I can sort of understand his point as well as your annoyance.

No need for death penalty, just keep him locked up for longer than 15 fucking years.

This time last year I was incredibly unhappy with my job and spent my extra hour fine tuning my resume. The mundane stuff was rewritten to sound awesome, powerful and “bottom line” oriented. I sat on that resume for nearly another year due to a whole host of reasons, and frankly, excuses I could come up with out of…

SIGH

The woman beater is a good start.

I’m finding it pretty easy to hate Rizzo.

I actually wondered aloud “Has this game killed someone? Some more fragile fan must have totally had a heart attack by now.”

I’m an Indians fan, and I’m dying. Dying.

The character’s name is Mrs Ketts, so I’m pretty sure it’s a kettle.

sure, fine, but alcoholism is also very real, and if someone drives drunk and crashes his car into 320 million people, I’m going to feel sorrier for the people he crashed into than the driver.

If she’d found a bottle of pills, and decided to try and die that way, she’d most likely be alive right now. Even if she’d tried to die by throwing herself in front of a car, she’d probably still be alive, unless her family happens to live near a freeway.

In my county last year, in almost 60% of suicides the COD was firearm. I do not and will not ever believe that all of those few hundred people would still have committed suicide had they not had easy access to guns.

You just disproved the point you were trying to make. It’s far easier to kill yourself with a gun than with, say, a whole bottle of aspirin. Had your relative used a gun instead, she would probably not have “immediately regretted it and told her parents”... she would have most likely been dead.  

Except the first thing they teach you in nursing when it comes to suicidal ideation is if you can get them away from the immediate dangers it increases their overall chance of survival.

So, see the second comment in this thread.

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. I’m sure there is research on this. Adolescents (and pre-adolescents) are incredibly impulsive. In some cases, for sure, a suicidal person will find a way. But having easy access to a gun makes it so easy to act at the height of emotion, whereas someone who had to make a plan and…

I hate guns - fuck guns, don’t own guns - but teaching this girl about gun safety would not have prevented this. She was trying to harm herself. It wasn’t an accident.
