  1. ~3,000 individuals died on Sept 11 which was the impetus (at least that we know of) for these wars. Imagine if we focused the resources we put forth to solve that problem to solve COVID and other ills impacting our country with far higher death rates.
  2. These are the same folks who will never be mugged or in some shootout, but will be all too happy and proud to carry a gun.
  3. What was the last straw?
  4. Just gifted this bad boy. A scotch drinkers rum with a nice balanced dose of peat. So complex and rich and delicious.
  5. Um, yeah. Swam's best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy on surly, who knows this kid who's going with a girl who heard that some school made the kids feel guilty about their status in the cast system. I guess it's pretty serious.
  6. A whole lot of FAAFO
  7. Wait, he's talking about executing these Q supports trying to overturn the election, right? Right?!
  8. I think I quoted many points from the article relevant to this and other threads around how many don't have IDs (granted, didn't take into account your qualifier), legislation that disenfranchises voters, and that do so disproportionately for certain races. You're welcome.
  9. My point being that if you had enough gumption to ask the question, you could search and provide the answer with a simple Google search. Larger point is that there shouldn't be any hurdle to vote, especially ones that disproportionately impact certain groups of potential voters.
  10. First hit on Google: https://www.aclu.org/other/oppose-voter-id-legislation-fact-sheet What would happen if we applied CRT to our election system?!
  11. Pretty sure that was Swam or Macklemore.
  12. *in reference to the General. Fuck Gaetz
  13. Redneck Rave? Isn't that basically the Gathering of the Juggalos?
  14. Trump was a circus sideshow and couldn't get elected until he did. Apathy towards him, his supporters, and whoever carries the water of the crazies after him will only blow back in our faces. Healthy skepticism of that whole wing of politics is warranted and needed so it can't latch onto whatever the latest conspiracy is that will drum up enough support to do the next crazy thing.
  15. Timely article https://apnews.com/article/gun-background-checks-blocked-record-high-sales-e0c3105b6632740b8f15858cd930441a?utm_medium=ap&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=socialflow&s=09
  16. The snowflake right personified.
  17. What?! Deregulation is bad for an economy?!
  18. Sarah will just respond with an ad holding an AR and sporting a blue line flag hat, and blow this dude out of the water. Only sort of joking.
  19. Yeah, availability to guns and mental illness is an issue in many cities, races, communities and classes. That's why something should be done about it. Allowing easier availability to the gun is not the solution. Thanks for highlighting how pervasive the problem is in our country.
