This is the only sane take I’ve seen on the scenario so far, and I agree. The man was wrong, shouldn’t have confronted based off of a misheard sentence, and should definitely not have drawn down on or opened fire on the people in the car.

Even Kotaku has anti-gun crazies I guess.

I was waiting for the crazy anti gun diatribe.

He had just woken up and was almost ran over. I can’t blame him for his judgement being a bit shaky. I am just glad nobody was hurt.

Don’t worry love, the smashing has arrived.

“it’s a man thing”

This was my exact reaction. I am sorry, but part if being disabled is that you can’t do everything that others can. It sucks, but that’s how life goes.

Have you seen her arms? They’re muscle-less noodles.

It’s too bad. Not only was Roadhog nerfed hard, but now with self healing applying to your ult he’s a lot less useful as an ult charger for healers now. Why let Mercy heal you as Roadhog when you can self heal and speed up your ult charging?

Yeah I used her more as an assault than anything. Flank the enemy by jetting over a barrier, then dishing out some havoc before retreating again. I never was able to absorb any punishment or push for my team due to having terrible damage mitigation abilities and getting headshot and killed almost immediately if I…

I never said it’s not all bad, but there is still a gulf between subtle, internalized racism and people who support killings and beatings. They are nowhere near the same in severity or in how they make me feel regardless of what a few politicians do.

How so? I would much prefer an old biddie who crosses the street when she sees me over that same old biddie encouraging people to come kill me and rape my family for my race. I’d take people giving my girlfriend and I weird looks over trying to kill us both for being an interracial couple. They’re not even on the same…

While I agree with you that they are a problem, I think there’s a far cry between a subtly racist yuppie with good intentions and people who advocate for killing brown people in the street.

“quietly, politely racist and sexist”

Too bad calls to take a step back fall on deaf ears it would seem. Good on you to keep trying though.

I read that in the voice of the bad and good guy from the Animaniacs. Thanks for the laugh!

I’ll bite: how are they racist?

A tip for if you like to eat on soups and stews for a week/week and a half like I do: store them in the fridge in a covered saucepan, then when you want to eat some, just heat it to boiling. This kills the critters in the soup and stew and prolongs the storage time. I’ve had stews last several weeks this way (don’t…

Well this is kind of a chicken/egg scenario. People may not oppose black schools because of black kids, but because many of them are just terrible due to a myriad of reasons. I know that’s why my gf (who is actually black) went to a charter school rather than the closer public school.

A lower standard of proof isn’t a good thing when you’re talking about innocence or guilt in a life ruining thing.
