Erenthal posted:It's like Europe and Australia are in the worlds worst race to be the most awful against migrants and asylum seekers. I don't know who's winning, but I feel like we're all definitely losing They just found 70 Syrian migrants including four children suffocated in a truck dumped at the Austro-Hungarian border. Even Australia is going to be hard pressed to beat that.

I don't know about you guys, but I think insulting the people you're trying to get rehired to work under is a super good idea.

To be fair one person with, say, a sword or a knife could easily rush three other people, killing two of them on the spot and putting the third in the hospital, just like if he had a gun. Why, just last night I saw.... wait, that wasn't real life, I was playing The Witcher. nvm

That Lester cartoon does help explain right-wing thinking on gun control. If you think acts of gun violence results from nameless, uncompromising, eternal evil, it is therefore logical to believe that that violence will occur regardless of the tools at the hypothetical perpetrator's disposal.

Bill Day crumples up another draft in despair and tosses it into an overflowing trash basket.

Bill Day then realizes he could make the guy's hand another smaller gun and takes it out of the trash, saving it for another inevitable shooting.

Or it's just some rhetorical bullshit cynically employed to get people to ask and answer the wrongest, least fruitful questions about guns. Like loving debates about "automatic" or "semiautomatic" or whatever the gently caress. I'm unclear on how the constitution figures into their kneejerk reaction against the Iran deal. Is there something in it I'm forgetting about how the founding fathers intended the U.S. to be at perpetual war with everyone all the time?

The founding fathers would never have brooked any sort of "deal" or "treaty" with the Muslims, who hate Western civilization and have always longed to see America wiped from the face of the earth.

I remember a while back when a mass shooting in america occurred at the same time as a mass stabbing. Everyone who was attacked in the mass stabbing survived, everyone who was shot in the mass shooting did not. This is the stabbing incident I was thinking about : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Regional_High_School_stabbing Space Cadet Omoly fucked around with this message at 18:09 on Aug 28, 2015 |

loquacius posted:Kasich (governor of Ohio) is running for president. He has said that he would abolish teachers' lounges because they only serve as a place for teachers to laze around and complain. This is funny to me because my entire stereotype of Ohio is people who love to complain. My entire experience of Ohio was people either bragging about how mediocre Ohio is (a weird thing to take pride in), or just ceaseless complaining about any task they had to do. I really think it's part of Ohio culture or something.

Everything the right disagrees with, which of course includes literally everything Obama does, is unconstitutional somehow. Don't worry about how, it just is.

Garrand posted:There was a ted rall cartoon about a teacher who had used her body to try and shield students from a tornado or something and calling her fat. Also Rall tweets (and maybe a cartoon, don't remember) talking about how the paramedics / emergency workers during the Boston Marathon bombing weren't heroes because it was their job. Just like how political cartoonists aren't heroes because speaking truth to power through crappy little drawings is their job. Well, not Rall's job anymore, but yeah.
