sean10mm posted:Well, X law might only reduce the rate of a horrible thing happening rather than make it literally impossible to happen, guess we should just leave everything in its current lovely state because perfection isn't achievable! In fact, if we made murder legal, fewer people would die since no one would have to rush and accidentally kill the wrong person!

Well, per the liberal talking point "Well, civilized Western Europe has low crime rates and strict gun control!" while looking at Eastern Europe with high gun ownership and high crime rates, one can infer there's one variable in equation as to whether more guns = less crime or more crime. How civilized are the people you're giving guns to?

Radbot posted:I would legitimately donate to a GoFundMe that funds black people buying guns, as I'm sure every gun owner would. I don't own any guns, but so long as cops are going out of their way to not help black southerners (and also often killing black southerners) I'd be all in favor of arming the oppressed. But only if every gun also came with complimentary turtleneck and jacket.

I don't agree with his death penalty comments, but I wish the Duggar family had an uncle that was this willing to tell his kin to get hosed. quote:“He’s guilty as hell,” Carson Cowles, uncle of Dylann Roof, told the Los Angeles Times in a telephone interview. quote:His nephew is going to “ride the lightning,” Cowles told The Times, referring to the death penalty. “He’s going to pay for what he’s done. I’d pull the switch myself, if they’d let me.” quote:Roof’s mother is devastated, Cowles said, but he refused to comment further, saying it was a personal matter. quote:Cowles said the family was repelled by what his nephew is accused of doing. “He’ll get no sympathy from us, any of us.”

Kalman posted:That said, it's not that different from most other law reviews. They aren't scientific papers. Though they are certainly more ideological in their selection of submissions, and in the kind of works that people will submit to them. Every meeting of the HLS Federalists has some spiel about how tired all the conservatives must be from being surrounded by dag gurm libruls, it's fueled on siege mentality. From my experience most other law reviews go "hoo this sounds interesting and this professor has a stacked CV!"

In case people missed this or don't/can't mouse over links to see where this goes, it's the drat Onion. They appear to have completely dropped all pretense of satire and gone straight for the jugular of the NRA. When was the last time the Onion didn't try to put a veneer of satire on something?
