"Teen Allergic to Wi-Fi Commits Suicide, Parents Say"

Does Yahoo News count as social media? Because christ, the loving comments.

It reminds me years back of when a cellphone tower was installed in a small town, and suddenly everyone living there had headaches and joint pain and other ailments, obviously caused by the emissions of the tower. They created a class-action lawsuit against the owning company, who then revealed the tower had never been turned on in the first place.

No we don't lol. You can't take away someones right to own a firearm for nonviolent crimes (oh wait they already do that to felons who committed non violent drug crimes!) Taking away machine guns & anything along those lines just sets us up for martial law. We have the 2nd amendment because we are suppose to over throw the government if they committ treason- which they have.

No where does it say it is open for regulation, and you do realize there are militas throughout this country, right?
According the constitution, we can legally declare war on our government.
So I'm sure the founding fathers would disagree about regulations.

Yes I totally want our government to regulate guns so we can't defend ourselves. Yes I want the same people who gave dangerous cartels weapons to tell me what I can and can't have in my home.
(Sarcasm)

Sheep will be sheep.

If they think that their government is committing treason then why aren't they already trying to overthrow it?
Why are they not declaring war? They're all talk, man. Crazy, crazy talk.

Got two of those guys at work. One likes to ramble about Zeitgeist and believed that woman's uteruses fall out, literally, when they hit menopause. The other seems to buy into every dumb clickbait thing, from that thing about Mars being so close to seem as big as the moon, to chamtrails, to some nonsense about tremors and strange noises being test runs by secret superweapons.

I knew a guy once who got into an actual like yelling and screaming argument, well he was doing the yelling and screaming, over whether or not pot was a drug. Because you see it was natural therefore it could not be a drug, only unnatural things could be drugs.

Every time you mentioned gun control laws elsewhere the argument becomes "Those countries aren't the US so it clearly wouldn't work so let's just keep doing what we do now."

Then it becomes "mental health is the real issue" but these cunts also vote against universal healthcare so I'm just tired of them.

When he starts that poo poo, I usually go with "Poison ivy is a natural plant, so it should be OK to smoke it, too. I know where you can find some."

I don't mean to talk too much poo poo--he's a pretty good guy, just has some strange ideas about things. When his daughter was born, he did actually vaccinate her, but mostly because a bunch of us got together and essentially threatened to ostracize him permanently if she didn't get her shots.

"That's just BIG PHARMA taking our money."

"Dude, the health department gives them out for free. Make a goddamn appointment."

"But the state puts mind control chemicals in vaccines!"

"YOU HAVE A SMALLPOX VACCINATION SCAR ON YOUR ARM AND NOBODY, INCLUDING YOU, IS CONTROLLING YOUR MIND, TAKE YOUR DAUGHTER IN OR SHE WILL DIE YOU DUMB poo poo"

Is it unreasonable to think you should be able to support gun control AND the Second Amendment at the same time. Because some of the posts I've seen in my newsfeed seem to indicate that you have to be 100% one or the other. That you can't support the Second Amendment but think there should be limits on how easy it is for the average rear end in a top hat to get his hands on one. Nope, somebody so much as hints at gun control and their immediate reaction is DER TERKIN ARE GURNS! And no matter how they phrase their post it always comes off as angry and you just no there's no point in even trying to have a discussion.
