This in the wake of two school shootings within the last couple of weeks.

Behavior rationalized is behavior normalized—and nothing normalizes quite like humor.

...I just don’t have words anymore.  Fuck.

STOP DISCUSSING CONCERN ABOUT A SINGLE INCDIENT OF SELLING AND ALTERRING GUNS ILLEGALLY UNLESS YOU CAN MEET MY PERSONAL STANDARDS FOR (RED HERRING / STRAW MAN) TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS THAT I WILL ALTER OR CONFUSE WHEN YOU SURPASS MY LAST STANDARD FOR TECHINCAL DISCUSSION

I like when gun fans (nuts) get all offended and worked up on behalf of their dead, cold hunks of iron.

The man arrested, who hasn’t been identified, apparently violated Penal Code 30600, the California law that regulates assault weapons and .50 BMG [Browning Machine Gun] rifles. The sale, distribution, manufacture, and transport of assault rifles and .50 BMGs is limited by the state.

“This opinion directly contradicts that of most of the right and President Trump, who lost his mind on Twitter last week when Facebook announced it was banning extremist figures like Paul Joseph Watson and Louis Farrakhan.”

Almost all entirely men acting a fool over what Ayesha said.

The coffee cup wasn’t even the first time they messed up on the GoT...

Yeah I remember finding the original news report on it, and he was totally the same guy. Such a great episode from an amazing show (aside from the last season, which shall never be spoken of).

It’s not just showings and eDocs. You’re also paying them to advise you on a what is, for many people, the biggest financial decision you will ever make.

People had better get ready for Roe v. Wade being overturned or severely gutted and stop kidding themselves with this “Oh the GOP will never do that because that would rob them of their core issue to rile up their base” bullshit.

That story does not add up. Soldiers (including Reserve and National Guard) are non-deployable until they finish IET (Basic Training and AIT) and fully qualify for the position they are being deployed in. Deployment (at least in the Army) also requires the unit to meet certain training requirements, such as individual…

It’s mostly 18 and 22 year old men, so all idiots. I say this as someone who enlisted as a dumb 17 year old.

There are ~1.35 million people in the US armed forces. If we heard a thousand stories exactly like this one, that would represent seven-hundredths of one percent of the population.

Some people here are either too young or too forgetful to remember that after 9/11, the consensus that we needed to stop bin laden was pretty overwhelming. A lot of people didn’t predict how poorly the neo-Cons would mismanage and manipulate our military, but honestly, man, if you’re going to pretend that in the weeks…

*Financially poor* intelligent people do join the military because the military promises them free education.

I’m still calling shenanigans (though I appreciate your explanation.) Even if that is true, it does not change the fact that Casada and Cothren were aware that the communication was sent on (or bef0re) February 25th — before the bail conditions were placed.

“IT issues” do not include time-travel (yet.) If you and I…

Rafi, you left out this gem:

“Strangely, the DA’s Office says that, before Cade Cothren gave them the picture with the altered date, he had actually given them an email with the original date. He supposedly blamed that one on an IT issue.”

Just to emphasize this —- He not only filed a false report, but he lied to the…

What on Earth is happening in Tennessee?

The only problem, Jones told the station, is that he had the original email, which was actually sent in February—well before his no-contact rule.

As someone who lives in Tennessee, let me at least say, some of us are also embarrassed by these righteous assholes in Nashville. Lee is cramming school vouchers down the throat, making voter registration harder, and just generally being a shitstain. So typical GOP business
