I’d be more surprised to read a post that was properly edited at this point.

I don’t really disagree with you... I just think the gun nuts hear “gun control” and use that to accuse the left of politicizing... I don’t know where I’m really going with this though because it’s not as if it’s possible to bring them around to the right side of history regardless of what words are used.

His statement was heartfelt and clearly was addressing gun control.  This take is ridiculous.

Opening statements*  Argument is not permitted at this stage.

I wish those commenters would put that energy into literally anything else remotely positive.

Since this would have been a criminal prosecution, any appeal would not result in overturning the law that outlines potential civil penalties.

Most states do actually have statutes prohibiting “theft” of abandoned property....but yeah this ain’t it.

For me, it’s about indulging in something mindless so I can shut off my brain for an hour.

Exactly.  Arizona has been and always will be way more likely to pass such legislation than Minnesota or Illinois...and probably even Wisconsin.  But sure...the “midwest” is the problem...

I believe you are referring to the nosebleed that was caused not by the boyfriend but a result of some other issue. That was a photo of a text she sent him.  The whole thing is still potentially triggering, though.

That’s the actor’s real voice though...

For an alcoholic, it is not.

Significant others rarely factor into divorce negotiations.

I am in no way religious, but this man understood the assignment, gave a thoughtful response, and we’re dragging him?  There’s plenty to hate on in the world of dating apps.  Going after someone who shared his interests (in a very specific and identifiable way) just seems mean.

The Omarion what now?

The state cannot appeal after an acquittal.

Madison and Milwaukee are actually pretty important liberal strongholds in an otherwise conservative midwest so....no thanks.

I know the Kardashians aren’t popular here, but Khloe’s explanation for that decision is very reasonable.

For future reference, an iron will pack more punch for ya.

North Avenue Beach is on the north side which is....more racist.
