Thanks!

I don’t have a problem with guns in theory as I grew up around them and own several myself, but I wish we did what they do in Germany (or what they did when I lived there- someone legally challenged it and I’m not sure what’s happened since). All firearms are registered, and someone from the local registry is required

Yup it is the casual relationship with guns that bugs me so much. I grew up in shotgun houses with multigenerational hunters under a roof. However I had not clue my family had shotguns. Simply because my Dad, Aunts, and Grandpa all had gun safes which we hidden away from us children. It is so strange simply because I

I just offered it up when my kids were little, and we had a new playdate coming over. I’d tell them at my house there are no guns, no smoking, no pool, no pets. Plenty of refined flour and sugar, though.

Don’t let them gaslight you! My friend was at a family gathering with her little kids, and her dad got up and his tiny gun fell onto the chair and he didn’t even notice...AT A FUCKING FAMILY BBQ! She will not let him be around her children while armed. It’s a totally legitimate request.

The umbrellas are it look like a low rate Olympic Opening ceremony.

I cannot even count how many Superbowl Half Time shows I have seen, upwards of 35 and this is bar none the worst ever. Not Beyonce, not Bruno Mars, not Coldplay, it was the melding of all of them. It was lackluster, stupid and desperate.

I used to be a debater. I can see that he is very good. The winning debater is not the one who makes the best arguments, it’s the one who can read the judge(s) and make the argument that will most appeal to him or her. I used to be an OK debater, but I got really good once I learned this. I stopped trying to make the

What an asswipe. Even the most staunchly pro-life people I know would never talk to or about someone that way. Fucking monster.

I am also a former law school classmate. Team Craig all the way.

He was a partner in the Houston office of my law firm prior to running for Congress. Despite being largely conservative and Republican, everyone in the office (and the firm, generally) loathed him, so much so that to this day, no one wants to use his former office. It’s considered tainted.

Ted Cruz is that one guy on a night out who refused to get the bus with everyone else, and you’re stuck waiting around for him at the pub before the club for so long that you fuck off to the club (you call/text him and he doesn’t call back), only to get continuous texts with variations of “Where r u?” that you don’t
