It's hard to post an objection to that falsehood when you're being carjacked twice a day.  

[ohchaucer 1443]

or my grandkids are arguing with yours about gun control?   

Ha, joke’s on you, asshole! Because of you and your people, there’s a better chance here - in ANY community - than anywhere in the world that your kids or your kids’ kids will have their voice boxes shredded by a hail of bullets before they even get to form ideas much less sentences…. Ha ha!

You’re mistaken about that.

I still disagree.  My father mentioned some lie about the IRS getting 88000 new agents, half armed, as part of Biden's plan to come after conservatives.   I presented the facts that I read about how they were planning on hiring x number to replace those agents who are retiring soon.   

The whole thing was typical GQP scare tactics lies repeated to scare people who are not curious enough to look it up themselves.

You believe that criticizing the scope of someone's concern proves the person's hypocrisy thus allowing you to dismiss all else associated with that person and issue. This substitute for reasoning is maybe the most pervasive and cancerous of the right's attempt to destroy the republic.

 

 

Incredibly well put so of course fatass won't or can't try to understand it.

I don't think y'all understand. You see, different types of murders happen in America, so we shouldn't do anything to try to stop any of it.

Forget someone on the level of "Russians and jihadists", I wonder if fatty could name me ONE sitting Democratic politician that he particularly finds dangerously progressive. Well, someone other than the usual suspects: Pelosi, Feinstein, AOC, and Omar (SO weird and completely random how the GOP always targets women). 

Personally, I'd love to see your evidence that AOC hates the United States @fattyflattie. That's just such an absurdly stupid take.

Nor should we bother to look at the common tool utilized across all of them. Much less the most atrocious of them.

The last Republican president attempted a violent coup and he and his co-conspirators wanted to deploy the military to violently suppress the public backlash they anticipated.

More recently, the political campaign for the "moderate" that the Republican establishment wanted to replace Trump created a campaign video that featured this image:

Yeah, they're fucking nazis. And you vote for them, which makes you one too.

He's the worst kind of person to have any kind of debate with and should be ignored like the toddler throwing a temper tantrum in the corner. 

It's quite simple. He's an affluent white male living in Texas. The system that keeps disadvantaged, non-white people (preferably males), is not something he wants to see go away. It's as several others have said, he got his so fuck everybody else. Oh, and he likes to shoot guns. Deep down he probably knows the shit he says is deplorable but he's emboldened by today's political climate. It's blood sport with zero fucking rules. The cruelty is the point. It's all the GOP/GQP has at this point because their core beliefs are horridly out-of-touch. The only way that way of life has a chance of surviving is through brute power. It will ultimately go up in flames. I just hope it doesn't take US democracy with it.

And in a GQP debate last week, *8 1/2 of the 10 candidates vowed to support Trump as the Republican candidate EVEN IF CONVICTED of the felony indictments he's facing.

It really is fascinating at the extreme reflex response of O&G republicans to say that their being a white male had nothing to do with their level of comfort in life and relative level of risk they had to assume to achieve it. It's the same vibe as why they react so extremely to Kendi and other authors who propose that everyone should take a piece of responsibility for making the world better

Race baiting definitely a better gig than O&G.  Kendi has it figured out.  And when you run out of things to be outraged at, even pandemics and adoption habits can sustain your ire.

don't kid yourself.  the distance between black vs white and rich vs poor is a very short distance.  i would even go so far as to say some factions use race as a red herring to keep white poors voting against their own self-interests.

Holy shit, it just clicked. fatty is THE living embodiment of Randolph Duke's "aggy dream". That lovable loon used to rant for pages about the typical A&M graduate's life trajectory.

Paraphrasing: "Completely unremarkable, mediocre, white male who's just smart enough to realize that O&G possesses the highest salary ceiling for unremarkable intellect and skills, moves to Midland or some Houston suburb, pops out some kids, gets a deer lease, and maybe even gets a boat in garage before sitting back in awe of all of his many accomplishments."

Not that there's anything wrong with any of that, but still really funny to me.

My concern is how we either hide or broadcast politically charged information when it's convenient.

Then, there really isn't a difference, is there?  

But, 

How about that pistol you mentioned in your other example.  Also, btw, a "military" round. 

 

This is literally the shit flung at me anytime someone gets shot and the board decides to care about the event.  Like the "mass shooting" in JAX that doesn't even meet the threshold of the definition.  Criticized for the scope of my concern.  So please, tell me more about the hypocrisy.

Of course it is.  Most aren't even bothered enough until unequivocally the other side committing the crime.  And it's never the persons fault, it's these goddamn policies and this goddamn war.  Or mental health.  Or pay inequality.  Can never just be an asshole committing a crime, well, until a certain couple of things align with the story.  If it weren't for the violence, there wouldn't be an issue with America's "gun culture". 

Literally 15 posters of which that would bother me.  Couldn't find a fuck less to give otherwise. 

Every single bolded word of this is LOL. There are Russians and jihadists that hate the US less than some of the D politicians.  

Negged for willfull obtuseness and the absurd lie at the end. 

I've addressed the main points you make. No need to do so again. You're killing the republic that you think Dems hate. Malign, argument-proof cultism is the cancer. The irony-deafness used to be funny.

Now you'll write words and consider them an argument. You don't understand argument.

Quote

As DeSantis approached the podium to speak, some people in the crowd began to boo; one person yelled out, "You're not welcome here." Later, someone shouted, "Your policies caused this," according to videos of the event. As governor, DeSantis has loosened the state's guns laws, and curbed efforts to teach Black history in public schools.

 

[Eskimohorn 5635]

Gavin Newsom put forward a 28th amendment proposal, but there's been little follow up.

“Our ability to make a more perfect union is literally written into the Constitution,” said Governor Gavin Newsom. “So today, I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to do just that. The 28th Amendment will enshrine in the Constitution common sense gun safety measures that Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and gun owners overwhelmingly support – while leaving the 2nd Amendment unchanged and respecting America’s gun-owning tradition.”
The 28th Amendment will permanently enshrine four broadly supported gun safety principles into the U.S. Constitution:
Raising the federal minimum age to purchase a firearm from 18 to 21;
Mandating universal background checks to prevent truly dangerous people from purchasing a gun that could be used in a crime;
Instituting a reasonable waiting period for all gun purchases; and
Barring civilian purchase of assault weapons that serve no other purpose than to kill as many people as possible in a short amount of time – weapons of war our nation’s founders never foresaw.
Additionally, the 28th Amendment will affirm Congress, states, and local governments can enact additional common-sense gun safety regulations that save lives.
 

We dont need a waiting period. After passing a universal background check, people need to prove they can maintain and operate the weapons they purchase.

Also, they need to take personal responsibility for each weapon they own. And certain guns cannot change owners without a licensed retailer being involved.

At the end of the day, responsible people will do this no problem.

[Eskimohorn 5635]

caveat: licensing requirements must be aligned with gun safety (and not be bullshit) and not be unnecessarily burdensome or discriminatory.

That's generally how I view every time I go into public now.  If it's my time, it's my time.  Because we created this issue and refuse to deal with it.  Just a matter of time before it affects me personally, whether that means me or someone I know.

You're getting confused in that most of the folks we're disagreeing with (and you're tacitly defending) ACTUALLY ARE nazis, fascists, and/or racists. Just simply disagreeing doesn't make you a member of that group - but goddamn if there haven't been an uprising of fucking insane racist people in the wake of the 2016 presidential vote.

The difference is that there is ACTUAL FACTUAL evidence of those people being nazis or racist or fascist. We can articulate and break down why. 

You're just saying "unga bunga AOC bad because socialist lib duhhrrr" and equivocating with some limp dick #bothsides shit when called on it.
