It’s actually forcing it to represent some parts significantly more than others at the great expense of the majority of Americans.

I never said we live in a democracy. I said the popular vote is the will of the people, because it is. Our system, a constitutional representative republic, is not designed to cater to the will of the people. We pay only lip service to actual democratic ideals, while allowing those in power the means to overrule…

the electorial college is doing exactly whats its meant to do. give a voice to the numerous smaller states you dipwad.

Bullshit! Election rules are election rules and if you don’t like them blah blah blah blah....

I’m not sure I understand, even as a former resident of middle america, how giving disproportionate representation to some of the least productive, progressive, educated and otherwise useful states in the union provides a boon to the rest of us.

The will of the people is the will of the people. Where they live is irrelevant, because in a fair and democratic society every person’s vote counts equally, regardless of where they live.

BS. Sick of this false equivalency nonsense.The horrible left wing they want to pass universal healthcare so we can be like all the other developed countries in the world. They think there should be financial regulations on the banks. They think we should listen to the climate scientists on climate change. They think…

Get the fuck out of here with your “the left”.

“MSM has proven time and again to lean considerably to the left”

I love it when the actually crime is dismissed because of gun semantics. FFS does it matter if he brought a gun/knife/lasers/bat to terrorize and to threaten others?

I know this article is about a gunman walking into a pizzeria but... can you take the time to explain, in detail, the difference between a magazine and a clip? Certainly it’s important here to hammer out alllll of the subtleties of firearms before we can even begin to address the broader implications of what actually…

Fuck you and your pedantic shit.

You’re right, the correct classification of firearms is absolutely the most important thing in this whole story.

I am sure these technical discrepancies matter a great deal to all the people who thought they might die today at the hands of an armed, wing nut, fueled by InfoWars and all the other alt-right propaganda.
