Since finding out about plans is a much more effective way of stopping jihad than, say, banning guns and waiting for the hundreds of millions in circulation today to stop working. Don't go here with fishmech, 50/50 chance he'll glad agree.

Though there are 102 Senator, counting the two "Shadow Senators" from Washington, D.C., Michael Brown and Paul Strauss. And, yes, Shadow Senator is obviously the best job title.

JT Jag posted:What are the Dakotas doing right? North Dakota at least is large swaths of farmland (Which will almost assuredly have near 100% gun ownership) contrasted with the densely populated metropolitan areas and the eastern border. And it's a big hunting state. So there's a high percentage of people who own guns, but they're largely for utilitarian purposes and not something you'd be carrying around with you or able to easily conceal.

TheDisreputableDog posted:....otherwise reasonable political position with an entire nation state which controls land, pulls in hundreds of millions per month in revenue, and has a sophisticated and worldwide agitprop operation, yes. If you're going to tell me that any of the rhetoric coming out of the GOP's Also, please tell me that you recognize at least some irony in trying to contrast "lone crazies" with "an entire nation state which controls land and pulls in hundreds of millions per month in revenue" when every so-called grassroots Tea Party victory has been (and continues to be) bankrolled by wealthy organizations hell-bent on crushing progressivism, whatever the cost? And if you can't connect "isolated" hate crimes motivated by Rightist anger to the trillions of dollars that move through media/political/industry organizations that do literally nothing but foment Rightist anger 24/7 for political gain, then you're a way bigger ostrich than Obummer, my friend. quote:And not two days ago he said the best way to fight terrorism was "coming together on climate change". Yes, and if you're like the overwhelming majority of academics and experts who understand the long-term perspective that he was taking with his climate change comment (and even short term. Hell, sooooo much of the ongoing unrest in the Middle East and especially in Africa can be directly tied to for-real global warming-induced droughts) then you understand that we'll be dealing with terrorism and instability the likes of which we've probably never seen if climate change continues to hit impoverished and politically unstable regions in the way that it has. The best way to fight terrorism is to fight the root causes of terrorism before it starts. This is elementary. There isn't some "-in lieu of worrying about ISIS" wink wink* message there unless you're a climate science denier who's primed to see 'liberal talking points' instead of tangible, academic principles. quote:He flubbed Syria to the point where ISIS was able to self organize and roll back into Iraq. What would've been a better way to deal with it? What would you have done differently? quote:The France attacks were "a setback". What else would you call a bunch of attacks specifically targeted at inciting a backlash against refugee aid and "punishing governments who would aid refugees and the enemies of ISIS?" It's not like ISIS didn't announce their motive. In that context, it's absolutely a setback, given the nativist and outright racist response it's set off in different parts of the world. quote:And now he's saying our focus should be on gun control. I'm still pretty confident that stricter gun laws would've made this attack much harder. It certainly would affect just about every other shooting incident. Alternatively, he could do that thing that Trump suggested. You know, the camp thing. quote:He's either dangerously disconnected from the realities of how things have changed, or just madly spinning to avoid having to admit he was wrong.
