Gap03

Don't the Democrats see what's coming if they accept this garbage? When the next slaughter happens (and we all know it will), the GQP is going to say, "See? We tried and NO gun control legislation is going to stop these attacks! We tried, and it has achieved nothing. We're going to unwind all of this and just dump more money into the gun lobby's coffers by requiring that every school buy a shit-ton of weaponry, ballistic blankets / bulletproof window, etc." If they're going to accept this, they need to position it as, "We tried, and this is the best we can do with the GQP + Manchin / Sinema's stranglehold on the Senate. We don't think it's going to do much, but we will continue to hammer away at these chickenshits until the gun violence stops." But they won't because the Dems suck at politics, so they'll go on a victory lap on the Sunday news shoes, only to have it explode in their faces when it becomes painfully obvious that it has achieved nothing. Fuckin' Murica.

Yeah, man - lay off the paper!

Read that too fast as "it's worth exploding" and was like ...

FIFY because we fucking love the "pew pew."

Were you paying attention at all when the markets smashed through the record highs day after day in the wake of a huge shock to the economic system? Did you really think that was because the economy was that fucking strong under Trump and Biden? Fuck no, man - that was all because the Fed was spiking the punch bowl, and then doubling and tripling down on that shit. Ya know, the same shit that is largely responsible for the out-of-control inflation. And now the Fed is finally threatening to take away the punch bowl, and we're supposed to feel sorry for everyone who based their investment decisions on the assumption that "Money printer go BRRRR forever"? Fuck off with that. It's a reckoning, and a necessary one at that. Let's look back at where the markets were before the Fed backed off on QT in 2019, and realize that, in spite of it all, people have still managed to make money.

Mixing scenes, but had to be done ...

Is that Herschel's "puppet" dance? Is that supposed to be a signal to the klan contingent of the GA GQP?

Which of the announcers at the Blacksburg SR continues to make the "ADI-OOOOOOS" call? Someone needs to tell him that he needs to stop trying to make ""ADI-OOOOOOS" happen. It's not going to happen.

Beat me to it. Fucker is in a lot better position than kids in public schools, doctors at Planned Parenthood, and a shit ton of other innocent people that Kavanaugh and the rest of the fascist wing of the USSC and statehouses throughout the country have put in harms way. McConnell and Kavanaugh can continue to get fucked.

Not sure that there is much hope that this will have any impact on these fuckers, but it's worth a shot:

If I was running this thing, I'd have Morgan Freeman narrating quick-cut recaps of the most inflammatory shit from every day of the hearings, and be running that shit as ads on Hannity, Tucker Carlson and everywhere else over the next few weeks. Make that shit feel like JFK so that people (especially the conspiracy freaks of the GQP) can't help but watch the next day. This thing only works if you can convince some of non-voters and GQP voters to vote for the Dems in '22 and '24. Unfortunately, I suspect that this is just going to be too dry for the folks who aren't already infuriated by Jan. 6.

Abso-fucking-lutely. We'll have our thoughts and prayers at the ready, just in case the shields / ballistic blanket package doesn't work out.

This is a damn fine point. Concurrent exercise of the First Amendment ("I think that piece of shit should die ...") and Second Amendment (I'm just toting my AR-15s with 10 extra 30-round clips through the Maryland suburbs) CANNOT be illegal - right?!?! Right, Justice Kavanaugh!?!?! And if it is, by some chance, would it be better if I incorporated first, given the only rights stronger than individuals' constitutional rights are corporations' constitutional rights?

Fuckers reaping the extremist whirlwind?

Naw, man ... not until he gets two votes so he can "both sides" it there, too.

We can do that... we don't even have to have a reason.

We should barrage Greg with this and let him know he can stop being such an absolute cunt already.

Blue squeezes UM on 2-2 count that looked like strike 3. UL immediately follows with a 2-run bomb. Michigan's gotta pull it together, but the UM pitcher is just getting mind-fucked by blue.

That back-and-forth replay with the fingers on the runner's left hand being pulled up seemed pretty definitive to me.

Definitely. Wouldn't RPGs work even better in taking out a pack of pigs, though? Why would I want to use a less effective tool in my war on pigs just because it could be used to take out hundreds of people in the wrong hands?

Nothing stopping you from using a bolt action then. Still don't need an AR. Dude, you obviously just don't understand how dangerous these things are ...

No need to worry - just 4 more decades or so with this cultist that the Senate couldn't be bothered to spend more than a couple of hours discussing before they crammed her onto the USSC. I'm sure it will all work out.

Yo, bruh, you forgot the "thoughts" - don't forget the thoughts, you ineffectual piece of shit.

Democrats (and everyone other than the GQP for that matter) are scared of a bunch of brain-dead, batshit crazy, armed to the teeth fucks running around screaming "FReEDoM!!1! LiBErTY1!!!" at the behest of their leaders and propagandists. BOOM and the GQP are scared of ... well, fucking EVERYTHING. And nobody is there to help them because of "useless government" and "useless police" - all while they continue to elect people hell-bent on proving how useless government can be and mindlessly "BaCKiNG tHe BLuE!" no matter how much they abuse their authority and shirk their responsibilities. But fuck it - I am leaning toward just getting Civil War II over with. I don't see how we can unfuck this thing with the GQP's kung fu grip on the courts + such a substantial chunk of rubes (and probably growing, as the GQP continues to try to implode our educational system) who refuse to listen to anything other than their chosen source of propaganda.
