This is adorable. That anti-NRA button is just the most "precious" thing. "The Anti-Joe Arpaio" is like the most complimentary title you could give anyone in law enforcement. Lurdiak fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Jun 15, 2017 |

Sarah Palin's website at some point had a map of vulnerable Democratic legislators who voted for Obamacare with crosshairs over their faces. Gabrielle Giffords was one of them. I don't think anyone sincerely believed that that incited the shooter, it was just an unfortunate coincidence and demonstrated how incendiary conservative rhetoric had become.

Rall is terrible even when it comes to spouting propaganda for a fascist regime. I honestly wonder if he sees it as just a paycheck or if he thinks of it as revenge against america and more specifically the newspapers that won't hire him.

For instance "what if a lab rat gained sentience and spent his time posting in political cartoon threads on a has-been website". That would be a fascinating story.

Wonder how many of these cartoonists complaining about the leftist rhetoric being the fault of the shooting also complained about rightist rhetoric being responsible for all the shootings that targeted minorities. (And ended in causalities) But nah, the party that constantly maligns minorities, the poor, and lgbt+ can't be at fault for when those groups get targeted, the person was crazy!

Cloud Potato posted:Independent: Not often the Independent has to be told to gently caress off, but there's no question why Grenfell Tower burned with estimated loss of 150 lives, mainly children. It's because the landlords were told to pretty up their block by the rich cunts across the road who culdn't bear to have their view spoiled, and decided to save £5000 by not going for the non-flammable cladding.

Samurai Sanders posted:I'm really confused, why are they comparing arbitrary words inside a nuclear power plant or something? I think it's a really ham-fisted reference to the "Hillary sold uranium to the Russians" thing. When she was Secretary of State, she (along with many other government officials) signed off on the purchase of a Canadian company that mines uranium in the US by the Russian government. When the Trump-Russia allegations started springing up, the right dug that up and tried to present it as something sinister.

Samurai Sanders posted:But that cartoon is coming out now? Do they realize that Hillary does not currently have any government job and also kind of a pariah on the left anyway? Some people (like Stantis/Allie or whoever writes Prickly City) are convinced she's going to run again in 2020. I'm pretty sure if she tried, though, she'd get laughed off the convention floor. Lurdiak posted:That is a different character. You can tell because she isn't puking or yelling. Well, the point stands. Though most strips don't go multiple days without showing the title character.
