I haven't been on SA for years but the person who gave me my previous av as a joke felt guilty for doing so and decided to get me a non-shitty av

posted about a semiautomatic ban in the tfr mass shooting thread

There are devices that make you a more efficient shooter: shoot faster and farther, reload less often and faster, aim better, or they let you better conceal your weapons. Banning their civilian use is stupid, idiotic, useless, because-

Ego: because it's my drat business and you were never supposed to figure it out
Superego: because they never really factored in the death toll of a mass shooting anyway
Id: because that would hurt my score in the mass shooting I have planned in my head

Brain tells me that company doctors were a thing once, that the big coal extractor in a small town may as well be the human player in Sim City and can have anyone go anywhere at any time, and thus before looking at even an ounce of evidence that this is shamefully plausible .

quote:

Among the first doctors Westmoreland hired to review and diagnose Brock's condition was a prominent, Harvard-trained radiologist at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine black lung unit.

Paul Wheeler and two of his colleagues, all board certified in the specialty of black lung radiology, reviewed Brock's X-rays and determined he was not suffering the effects of the disease.

The diagnosis fit a troubling pattern.

Wheeler had not confirmed a single case of severe black lung in more than 1,500 cases he evaluated between 2000 and 2013, according to an investigation by reporter Chris Hamby of the Center for Public Integrity. Hamby's series, "Breathless and Burdened," won a Pulitzer Prize in 2014.

Holy gently caress, that's so evil. I thought you were joking until I read the story. So I guess it's not really black lung is up, it might be the doctors have been faking the data all along so the rise is just due to better diagnosis. I guess I can't make fun of the coal miners in this case.

A diagnosis of black lung triggers a number of obligations and legal remedies for the benefit of the sufferer.

Earlier this year, it looked as though Brock would finally win when the examiner ruled him eligible for benefits. But several months later, she inexplicably reopened the case and reversed herself on a technicality: The latest X-ray documenting the progress of his disease hadn't been stamped with the date it was taken. Once again Brock had lost in a system, created by federal law, designed to be adversarial and seemingly tilted in favor of industry.

I argue this belongs here with just a little selective re-reading of the thread title:

"Post Trump voters realizing, under Trump, that they're going to die."

As in, I'm pretty sure the NRA has seen the beginning of it's marginalization in the faces of GenZ activists combined with the popularity of tighter gun control at minimum.
