The Gosnell case wasn't covered widely until recently because the court imposed a gag order. It's not because the media loves abortion or hates black people (or loves black people, I honestly can't figure what the person talking about race was trying to imply).

Pretending for argument's sake that these statistics are real, how is it an argument against gun control that stricter gun control in the UK was later followed by more armed robberies in Australia? They... they do know Australia hasn't been part of the British Empire for a long time, right?

AlbieQuirky posted:Wasn't it here where some guy went all about how "fan death is real" years ago, and accused everyone who was saying "Dude, people die from dehydration/ heat exhaustion in closed rooms in hot weather whether there are fans on or not" of being racist against Koreans? Yep. Apparently laughing at people who believe in things like chemtrails or whatever is fine because they're white, but if you laugh at people who believe in fan death it's not because it's a ridiculous thing to believe, the only possible explanation is that you're a racist. Previa_fun posted:"Fan death" is a euphemism for suicide. No one really believes that running a fan while you sleep will kill you. Where are you getting this from? Everything I've read about it (including from people defending it) has said it's literally about fans being left on killing people, nothing to do with suicide.

They... they do know Australia hasn't been part of the British Empire for a long time, right? It's actually not saying that, it's just written in a confusing way. They mean that after guns were banned in the UK the armed robbery rate increased by 40% and after guns were banned in Australia the armed robbery rate increased by 44%. Neither of those statistics is accurate and guns haven't been banned in either the UK or Australia.

Fatkraken posted:Guns aren't banned in Britain, HANDGUNS are banned but you can still buy rifles and shotguns for hunting I very much doubt they've even though past the stage "Hey, those people shouldn't be using our tax dollars just to pay for their drug addiction!" But I imagine if they did, they would pick the prison option. We in America seem to have an unfortunate mentality of "justice comes first, no matter how much it costs", even when the justice isn't really justice at all, and ultimately weakens society. Also, I didn't even see that the image was claiming that ALL GUNS were banned in the UK and and Aus. Christ, I can't believe anyone would post this image seriously.

piss explosion posted:Yeah the Australian armed robbery figure sounds like it was pulled straight from someone's rear end. Australia also hasn't had a mass shooting in over 15 years since we banned semi-automatic weapons: http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/gun-deaths-in-rapid-decline-since-buyback/2006/12/13/1165685752421.html The Australian statistic is garbage anyway because we never had significant numbers of guns employed for self/home defense. The gun buyback got rid of hundreds of thousands of guns that people didn't want want, were afraid to admit to having and didn't know what to do with. These guns were being stolen and used in crimes. It makes me laugh when police bust a bikie gang and find a handfull of old sawed off rifles and shotguns.

It could be he's depressed. Speaking from experience, when you're in a depressed funk it gets really hard to believe anyone might actually be interested in you. Even if you see all the signs, you'll tell yourself you're full of poo poo and justify it away. That said I totally agree with nippythefish, kid's got problems and should probably get some help before he gets a girl.

Nikaer Drekin posted:Oh, the conflicting emotions. I finally have something to share but at the same time I know someone that posts MRA crap: The funny thing about false rape accusations. It's actually hilariously low(someone in the feminism thread did the numbers on a bunch of studies, and when you remember the fact actual rapes go severely under reported from both men and women, the final number was less than a percent), and on top of it, it even less so leads to conviction. It's hard enough to get a conviction for actual rape, let alone false rape. It's basically on the level of thinking women are popping out kids for an extra $120 a month in food stamps.

I assume the answer is to stay skinny and also because being skinny alone doesn't equal healthy. It's like when my mother asks why I bother to buy lower fat milk or cream cheese when I'm already skinny. "I don't know, because I'd prefer to stay that way? Most people who are overweight were at one point a normal weight"

It seems very stupid even for Facebook. She is probably skinny because she has been on the treadmill.
