It’s harder to get a license to be a hair dresser than to get a gun. Hair grows back. Dead people don’t.*

Yes, a thousand times, yes. Make anyone who sells a firearm to someone who then uses that firearm to commit a crime, an accessory to that crime. Fuck this fucking shit. ENOUGH.

I agree with you. Honestly, I never thought about the differences between guns because I didn’t care enough to know. I have a lifelong aversion to them and have been taught by my father that owning or even holding a gun means you made peace with the fact that it’s made to kill people and you’re open to the possibility…

Thank you for trying to heal irreparable damage from war weapons in civilian hands. ❤️

You know? Fuck no-fly lists. They’re pretty useless. I want to see the firearms equivalent of SIP laws. Nearly every state has laws in place to make bartenders culpable if they serve to intoxicated persons. They may not be well enforced, but they’re there and legal precedent.

THIS is the argument I’ve had with those who I consider NOT my friends (also know as the “An AR doesn’t do that much damage” cuntbags). I work in Emergency Medicine and believe me, If I had to (touch wood) be shot with a gun and a choice, I’d go handgun/pistol all the way. That’s repairable (mostly; unless someone has…

I look forward to an even longer filibuster when republicans fuck it all up. Woooooo.

This blog mostly built the case for Ichiro, but the case against Pete Rose is this: he used a corked bat and he cost his team chasing records. He is not the hit king.

I think we’re acknowledging the facts:

Japanese pro baseball is probably the most competitive on the planet behind the MLB. Let’s not get too dismissive.

China is actually in big trouble. They are having trouble transitioning to an innovation economy because the free flow of ideas is severely hampered by the authoritarian government. They are currently making money hand over fist through production but the problem with that is that Chinese labor costs are rising and…

The future market potential of China is overstated. Their economy is balanced on a razors edge right now, and its looking fairly likely to collapse within the next couple years. They’re a good recession away from things stabilizing out enough for them to really compete with the west.

it would face the same problems that the US is facing.

What are you talking about? China is $590 billion in debt and growing and only a few months ago China’s Central Economic Work Conference announced the countries bankruptcy.

Your university is wrong. There is no reason to learn a Chinese language (Chinese isn’t a language btw). People were scared of China’s economy for a while, that’s probably the reason they are advocating this. But it’s all a house of cards that will soon come tumbling down. Btw, Chinese companies now comprise a large…

The guy is already in his 60s, I doubt he would care much about China’s air pollution. As long as a person has money, he can live comfortably in any parts of the world. The general quality of life is only a concern for average folks like us, not wealthy people like Chan.

There is NO POINT in learning Chinese when all the Chinese you will be doing business with are FLUENT in English. I go to an American University and there are Chinese foreign exchange students walking around everywhere who are fluent in English. China has more people of course, but the United States is trying to…

He’s a shill for the communist party. He only cares about his self and his image. He doesn’t care for the future of China, but doesn’t mind bullshitting for them. He’s lived over here, I’m sure he sees the big picture and understands that the quality of life HERE is much better than it is in China, yet he’s changed…

Its funny how he acts so passionate about his country and about his people yet he was named in the Panama Papers.

Honestly, this sort of news is nothing really surprising coming from Jackie Chan’s mouth ever since he became a dog of Mainland Communist China forgetting his roots in Hong Kong & his relationship with the Western World.
