Davos is that asshole who’s the Secretary of Education.

Trump seems such a waste of wealth. What does he do with it all? He goes golfing and pays people to kiss his ass? He has the means to travel the world, see the sights most of us only dream of, eat the kinds of food that are out of the realm of possibility for most of us, and insteda he goes to the Florida coast and

Yeah! Why do people waste so much time on their PCs and phones and iPads. They could go out and get Tazed for trying to attend one of their Senators’ town-hall meetings.

. Apparently, the job had taken three weeks, which was too long, and that put Brenden on edge.

He’s not mixed up. He’s a lying sack of shit.

They’re a completely unnecessary prospect in this day and age, however. Why can’t we just configure a car, pay online, and have it shipped to our house in a month or so just like, oh, I don’t know, literally everything else ever.

I’ll go one further: zero private money for campaigns (whether from donors, from the candidates themselves, from PACs, from corporations, from unions, etc...).

Yes, this is the issue, not Franken. The wealthy donors controlling the conversation on both sides of the aisle is a massive problem to me. Until the country can figure out how to run candidates for elections without spending millions upon millions of dollars this issue is not going to be addressed. Money continues to

On a systemic level, one individual’s perspective is irrelevant except for how it applies to the

My religion finds it offensive that Alabama may elect a pedophile to the U.S. Senate. Where do I get to go and challenge this?

People who use the Bible as a defense against being accused of homophobia are simply homophobic hypocrites. The truth is gay people make them queasy and they use the Bible as a rationalization.

“I’m really struggling to find a downfall to it.”

Holy shit, where did all the ‘whatabouts’ come from on this post? If you type the name Bright Bart online, does it somehow set off a flag in a troll dungeon somewhere?

but so welcoming of Weinstein’s and Soros’s money.

I think you make a very good point regarding the way American history whitewashes these events. Some of them I knew about, particularly Rosewood. Others, I’d only heard of or didn’t know the details. But I also think there’s a dimension to the 2013 definition that’s meaningful here. The authors specifically state that

These massacres don’t fit into the mass shooting category as you defined at the beginning of the article. These massacres had very definite targets. The “mass shootings” we’re talking about don’t have clearly defined targets and purposes.
