Also, primarily from a petroleum producer, whose best interest is continuing to make a profit, not producing lower carbon emissions. Also, any reduction in carbon emissions by the United States is in spite of Trump by switching to cleaner energy, not because of him.

Lycus posted:I don't what's shameful about liking booms. Fireworks are just a safe version, but the underlying psychology for enjoying it is the same, is it not? Just a reminder that Kerning Chameleon also thinks prohibition was a good idea and that 3D printers should be banned for some reason. They might be just a little bit crazy.

If we’re banning target shooting because in your Galaxy Brain that’s emblematic of a violent society I guess we also need to ban all video game shooters since shooting at virtual people that realistically act and react is definitely worse than shooting at a paper circle.

There's an exciting amount of "I've just decided that I'm right" in the thread today because everyone's found a group of people they can sneer at while still seeming like they're leftist.

PT6A posted:Can we all agree that guns and explosives of various sorts are pretty fun and that's not in itself evidence of a mental problem? Of course. Well I mean I can, but judging from how this discussion is going down, and past discussions in this thread about this, I dont think you'll get the buy in you're looking for. PT6A posted:That doesn't mean the fun is worth the risk they pose to society, though, and saying "I want to keep my guns because they're fun, gently caress the consequences" I dont think any of the gun owners in this thread are saying that. There are people that say that though, and I agree, its hosed. The last time my brother was in town we had a 'discussion' about this, and after telling him how cool it was that his niece and nephew have to go through active shooter drills and that not affecting them I point blank asked him if his gun rights trumped all the dead. He said it did, so yea, hes hosed in the head regarding guns. I think where posters lose the thread are when they paint all gun owners with an incredibly broad brush and think because I shoot sporting clays with an over and under because it's fun and helps prepare me for bird hunting that I'm also constantly thinking of murdering everyone. Its gross and the posters in here are better than that.

Just because you can't imagine a video game with similar mechanics without it being draped in military worship doesn't mean I have such limitations, checkmate ammosexuals.

It'd make a lot more sense if the EU was listed as the average reduction/increase rate across all members, and the individual members were listed as well. Aside from that, maybe they just liked Spain and the UK more than those other countries? I mean, who even remembers Estonia?

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Is there any recent shootings that would be stopped by gun stuff just being marginally more expensive? It really literally seems like not a solution, all the big shooters already were spending huge amounts of money and had far more than needed. Old post but Dylan Roof only got his gun because he would have failed the background check, but they took too long processing it so he was allowed to buy it anyway.

FizFashizzle posted:is it raining on his golf course today? Jfc. This is the kind of poo poo that ought to spark a revolution. This isn't just wrong, it's not just a falsehood, it is like the literal opposite of truth. Donald Trump has done more than damage our credibility abroad. He has fought a war against the very concept of facts. We live in a post-truth world and I don't know how you fix that. Chuds have been mainlining what they want to hear for years now. Truth is irrelevant to them. How do you fight that?

Besesoth posted:I'm not sure why I'm bothering, since you're doubling down on being ignorant, but here goes: I'm still surprised by how naive people are. People like Chelsea Clinton don't just show up at a thing like this vigil. It's like if Kayne suddenly showed up at an anti-Trump rally. He would know what he's doing. Chelsea knows what she's doing. She clearly wants to be a thing in politics or the media and her people told her she hosed up with the Omar debacle and apparently she has the same dumb advisers her mother had so she decided bursting in on this vigil was a way to make it even. That's what it is. She's oblivious and stupid and entitled.
