You’re right. Under the current system we never have to deal with recounts or anything like that. I guess it’s just too difficult to count all the votes cast in an election. We should just give up. 

You have problems when your first inclination is to defend rape. 

What past precedent are you referring to? We’re in pretty unprecedented waters right now. 

How does this go against what I said?

It seems as though either cities or rural areas are going to have to have an advantage. I would rather that advantage to be in the places where people want to advance society rather than dialing it back to 1950. 

Agreed. Was pretty much the point I was making. Def Leppard was terrible but they were nowhere near as bad as Crue and Poison. Although I’ll agree with the poster above that ‘Pour Some Sugar On Me’ was everywhere and really fucking annoying. I’m a Gen X’er so unfortunately I got to live through all that in real time. 

There are almost twice as many people in Columbus Ohio than there are in Wyoming. Wyoming has disproportionate representation and that is a problem. 

What the fuck is wrong with people?? Jesus. Fuck this entire planet. 

So your vote in Wyoming means much more than a vote in Queens NY. That’s a problem. 

Clearly the point is that she is a victim of the school shooting because the PTSD and survivor guilt that she was dealing with led to her suicide, regardless of method used. Are you dense?

I’m not laboring under the delusion that anything I want to happen will actually happen, more of a thought exercise. I’m just so sick of this shit and I really do wish that all those states would just secede and go off and form their own christian taliban and leave the rest of us alone. I know it isn’t going to…

My point is that the process right now is tilted to the advantage of flyover country. If we’re going to put our finger on the scale, I’d rather it be towards progress and not towards the 17th century puritan ideals of a bunch of uneducated racist hatemongers. 

Warrant was part of the second tier along with acts like Big Red and Cinderella. They were deeply awful but nowhere near as ubiquitous as acts like Motley Crue and Poison.

I mean, not that I always agree with the DCCC, but one main reason they exist is to help re-elect Democratic incumbents.

Well, I can’t have universal healthcare, maternal/paternal leave, legal cannabis, or any number of things that would make life in this country better because the backwards morons from bumfuck Alabama want what they want because they want it. 

Hopefully they don’t let the door hit them on the ass on the way out.

Unfortunately some people need to be dragged kicking and screaming in to this century. If your voters are voting to basically outlaw abortion, roll back civil rights, deny LGBTQ people rights, and to deny people in need help, I don’t really give a fuck about them. Those people gave us Trump. Those people fight against…

Poison was the worst to me but Motley Crue was a close second. Def Leppard wasn’t even in the same stratosphere of terribleness, although they were terrible. 

The people outside of those 146 counties continuously vote against the best interest of the country. We can’t move forward because Gomer in Mississippi doesn’t think that people deserve equal rights or that women are people. So, fuck ‘em. There’s a reason that people choose to live in those 146 counties. 

That’s just so fucking sad. Just goes to show that the pain from gun violence lasts far longer than the actual event. I feel so bad for that girl, and her friends and family.
