Fried Chicken posted:Georgia passed a new gun law, allowing them to be carried drat near anywhere (including airports and churches, the former where the feds frown harshly, the latter where it has been a mortal sin for 800 years) Wait they're legal in airports? How exactly is that going to work because it sounds like a wonderful recipe for the TSA shooting/arresting some jackass.

It's legal to carry in the nonsterile part of the airport. Here's a graphic that I can't vouch the accuracy of (from floridacarry.org):

Dr.Zeppelin posted:Yes well for a lot of them who automatically believed that 2A was the exclusive domain of "the good guys" and not of people who intimidate families at children's baseball games, maybe this will be a valuable eye-opener about exactly the types of people they've decided to throw in their political lot with. Glad we have such a well-reasoned argument as this, where anyone who has any political affiliation throws their political lot with anyone who has a shroud of similar beliefs. Did you know that Bernie Sanders and Paul Ryan are literally the same, because they both support the 1st Amendment?

Rexicon1 posted:Never engage sedanchair. Got it. That's an unfair assessment. The original implication was that everyone was a man-child who fertilized his totem, and pointing out that they're as mocked as Libertarians are here is a valid counter to that. With that logic, you could claim that D&D was pro-drunk driving due to a recent thread.

Job Truniht posted:These are logical outcomes to their views, not crazy fantasies outside their imaginations. It baffles me. Just like paying everbody a minimum wage of $100,000.00 per hour is the logical outcome for any argument in favor of raising it. The 2nd Amendment doesn't say anything about brandishing or carrying or creating a public panic, it's strictly about ownership.

Yeah it isn't the outcome of the 2nd amendment, it is the outcome of a political discourse where affinity politics rules all, and antagonizing the "other" is a virtue rather than irresponsible behavior that gets slapped down. See also: pouring oil down storm drains on earth day, swerving into bike lanes to intimidate riders, or about any "anti liberal" behavior in the Freep thread

Spatula City posted:White straight men have almost nothing of value to say about the minority experience, and even when presented with absolute evidence of it, tend to deny it to hell and back. I know there's a chance I'd have been like that were it not for my liberal parents. Another forum I post on populated with a much more educationally and politically diverse but racially homogenous population than the groovy Disco of Debate has been whipped to a frenzy about the Cliven Bundy situation. The amount of "Bundy was taken out of context" apologism is alarming and I took a real stand calling people out on it for the last day or two and the most popular defense was "look here is a black dude who supports Bundy so obviously he couldn't actually be racist." It's really astounding.

Mississippi's last abortion clinic heads to court today at the New Orleans appeals court to try to stay open against new restrictions from the legislature. The Texas version of this law was upheld, the Alabama version was struck down. Also the SCOTUS is hearing arguments on protecting public employees from retribution for testifying against the government today

I'm not sure you could possibly hand Al-Queda a better recruiting bit than that. "America is going to come in, torture, and forcibly convert Muslims" has been their recruiting pitch for a while, and here we have the darling of the Republican Party saying it. I'm certain that line was calculated to be as outrageous as possible to get it to go viral, get her speech repeated ad nauseum, get her more attention, and get her more money. It is insane that we have set up a positive feedback loop where stuff like this gets rewarded.

If I said most D&D posters get their information from Comedy Central rather than actual news or understanding issues and events, would people disagree? Most posters on this site roll their eyes at effort posts about any of the topics of the sub forums and say "comedy site" to mock in depth discussion. But mention TFR is full of people who fetish guns rather than practice proper care and handling, and it's harumphing and grumbling.
