How did you get into conversation about a rapist/serial killer from the eighties anyway?

We were trying to figure out if there's anything to the stereotype that most serial killers are from the midwest. Doesn't everybody engage in some serial killer chat every now and then?

I honestly have to try really hard not to read it as "Americans don't loving need more guns and never actually use the ones they have for the reasons they say they need them"

My first read was about how many household guns are kept in stupid places that are easy to reach by young children.

Must be an American thing. We don't really have enough of them to carry a conversation, while you have so many that it's hard to keep track. I'd actually say it's a bit excessive...


That guy wasn't a serial killer though. Also reading that page, he apparently was really polite and fothcomming during that whole thing.

The cartoon is a reference to Bowie's 69th birthday and the release of his last album. The fact that he died two days after these events is just a tragic coincidence. :(

Well, sort of. He knew he was dying when he made the album. He made it both to say goodbye and so he that could leave the world while it was busy talking about him.

Well, I laughed.

Store your guns properly or they will gain sentience and have inane conversations while you're away

This isn't actually an awful cartoon, you know, even if it glosses over the danger of being at greater risk of death to an intruder if you own a gun and the bad practice of not keeping that gun in a safe. It's making the valid points that most gun owners own handguns rather than assault rifles and don't even carry their weapons on a daily basis.

This is of course a reason for strong background checking and waiting periods, as the responsible gun owners will pass those checks no problem and obviously won't need the guns straight away.

ISIS had captured a Jordanian? pilot and burnt him alive in a cage. The footage went viral and everyone had their usual foot-stomping and crocodile tears about how Obama isn't doing anything to combat those obvious monsters! when the day before they were having tantrums over Obama going around congress to launch airstrikes against ISIS.
