Keep digging and guaranteed to find the Russians as well.
The most terrifying thing of all is how almost accepted all this is. None of it is particularly shocking. Hard core Republicans will even justify it, possibly even flaunt it. This is how far down the rabbit hole we’ve allowed things to get.
You think this guy has 47 guns because he’s scared? Really???
Edit: sure keep down voting me. No one buys 47 guns because they are “scared”. Clearly this guy loves guns and collects them for fun. He’s still a POS but describing what drives his behavior as “scared” just makes you look completely out of touch with reality, which doesn’t help improve the overall situation.
That’s not really a fair comparison though. They all handle and fire different. This piece of shit is still a piece of shit, but collecting different guns is more akin to “I participate in 10,000 point fights with my choice of Orks or Blueberry Spacemarines” than toasters.
At least we agree that it’s mostly the shitheads that are the problem, not so much the hobby. I’m pretty sure this shithead would have killed his wife if his hobby was hiking or cosplay too.
Ever hear the story of the nuclear boy scout? Now thats a hobby no one should be allowed to have.
You can wax hypothetical about what abusers would have done, but they overwhelmingly use guns, since they’re great for threatening people or executing them in an instant with a slim chance of survival or intervention.
Shitheads get into all hobbies. Some hobbies are more dangerous than others, and need more safety than others.
You know what’s a dangerous hobby that ALSO appeals to masculinity-troubled people? Modding cars to go faster and drift harder. You can tool around in them legally and if you drive like a shithead you can drive through a crowd. Modding pickups is also a big shitwaffle magnet. Still a hobby.
I avoided the whole “are guns the problem” subject in my comment for a reason. My comment served to illustrate that collecting large numbers of “Object” is a hobby. Whether or not the hobby is good, or bad, or dangerous, or safe, was not my comment.
No, it was a correction of how people collecting guns is not like collecting the same toaster over and over, more like different toasters, specifically not addressing anyone’s use of them.
But you’re specifically asking people to not treat gun collectors like toaster collectors.
If someone had a collection of 50 toasters, people would find that weird, but generally harmless.
But if that person then claimed to not be even slightly interested in toast, that would immediately set off warnings in people’s head.
Why would they collect so many toasters if they didn’t like toast? It’s what toasters are for. Sure, they could maybe find some off label use for them, but that still makes it a weird choice of hobby.
I’d definitely think they were much more interested in toast than they let on and if they were one day caught eating toast with a full erection, I wouldn’t be even slightly surprised.
Guns are a stupid and dangerous hobby, though. If Warhammer was responsible for thousands of deaths per year, I would not want to contribute to that, and I’d find something else to do.
There’s a reason it did. Those fires were propelled by incredibly fast winds, and spread much faster than emergency services anticipated. It basically jumped 70 miles over the course of an hour.
Yea based on what I read I don’t think they had a clear emergency script for fires of this magnitude. Their sirens are configured for tsunami/earthquake and hurricane emergencies. And from what I’m reading they chose to send out communication through cell phones.
Lock him the fuck up. Also, you better believe that republicans are in some pizza shop basement raping and mutilating kids. Every accusation is a confession. 100% of the time.
Technology running amok is a time tested theme. Whether it is a space station with a computer named HAL or an out of control car killing people named Christine, the idea that mankind is vulnerable to our own creations turning on us is very common theme.
AI themed books and movies are going to coming out in droves over the next few years as authors and directors take it to the next step. It’s going to be so played out soon, if it isnt already.
According to his biography, Ice-T was a pioneer in this type of robbery back in the late 80s. They used to hit mall designer stores, I remember seeing video of a couple of them on the news. These items are easy to sell, and some of the most lucrative things you can steal because of that.
There’s some genetic aspect but it doesn’t seem to run in families like a real genetic disease, so it’s probably a result of damage (physical trauma and/or toxins) and the genetic component is just a predisposition.
The state cannot start being allowed to make determinations about what religious groups may and may not adopt children. Thats fundamentally on so many levels not fucking ok.
We can and should as long as it’s based on relevant behavior not religious affiliation. If you don’t believe in using proscribed antibiotics you should not be caring for kids, for example. I don’t care if it’s because your god told you they were evil or because you think your healing crystals are better.
the determination should be based on your ability to care for the child emotionally, physically and psychologically. if you can’t do all 3, then you’re unfit to be a parent.
“Them good ole boys” forgot to take a look around before beating on a guy and the tables got turned. They probably would have gotten a slap on the wrist, but instead they got a folding chair to the face.
My daughter’s middle school has a football team. Full contact tackle football, not flag football or whatever. 12-year-olds going down the road to CTE and Parkinson’s. It’s nuts. They don’t have a boxing team, nor would they.
If you’re an adult and you want to take the risks that come with playing football, go for it. That’s your choice.
