I’m sorry, but I have to steal that line from your mother.

I’m a cat person.

The gun was new to the police force and hadn’t had much experience of killing yet. It went off by accident because it was excited to shoot some criminals and forgot it was present at the scene to save lives rather than take them.

One bullet could be an “accident”. 7 accidents in a row, that kill people???!!! Hmmmm. Strange that during his little accident, the police officer didn’t lower his weapon so that his misbehaving weapon didn’t cause harm.

Also guns can be used to take command of a situation without killing people. Why do they shoot to kill? Surely in a domestic disturbance they could come in and calm people down. Instead they come in and murder innocent people.

I would rather deal with a combative subject with a baseball bat than a gun, but I guess armed police find both thungs equally terrifying.

Completely ridiculous. Trolls are weird and terrible but you have to admire their commitment to being dicks. People suck.

Probably some white kids will get in the line of fire by mistake, but we can offer their families our thoughts and prayers and it will be cool with them.

Hillary: Trump can’t play the Trump card because he’s a chump.

Yeah it was so much bullshit I got sucked in. Sorry.

Maybe focusing on school patrols would help. The police can say it is to prevent mass shootings, but can easily get rid of a few kids in self defence. The great thing is, getting them young means they won’t have time to reproduce!

I know that legal language must be “neutral” but my point is that this isn’t neutral. It is false. It suggests that the weapon played a part in deciding the outcome. The weapon is an object, incapable of discharging itself no matter how combative the situation is.

“Upon arrival, officers were confronted by a combative subject resulting in the discharging of the officer’s weapon, fatally wounding two individuals.”

I would be delighted if Left Shark had a grudge against Katy Perry / the superbowl / corporate America and deliberately fucked up the routine. Fight the good fight Shark.

Exactly. It’s paying a large sum of money to bring an animal into a world where many don’t have homes and calling it Chance because there is a good chance the poor animal will die the same way as his predecessor.

I thought that too. Diseases are definitely hereditary, so cloning the exact same animal surely means it is highly likely to suffer from the same problems?

Oh please. We are told what to do with our money everyday by the hundreds of adverts we are exposed to, by the government via taxes and food stamps, and by our partners and family. Judging rich people for poor choices might be unsophisticated in your book, but the preventable death of hundreds of dogs isn’t exactly…

South Alabama. Hmm, I am stumped. I do have relatives somewhere in Alabama, so when I visit and can’t cope with their God-bothering any longer we can hang out and blaspheme and listen to good music.

Ah so our music taste is decided by the rich bastards in charge of record labels. Great!

Glad your cat is healing well. Manuka honey is magical, and delicious!
