It's not about where it's from. It's that Liam Neeson has opinions about too many people with guns when like the dude has been in action movies! Action movies that use guns in them! How can you be against something when you, as an actor, used that thing in movie?

I think it is sort of hypocritical to be making a living selling right-wing violence fantasies and then calling it "a disgrace" when people buy in to that ideology. (It would be one thing if it was something he had to do to feed his family, but I'm pretty sure Liam Neeson could find other ways to pay the bills.) But I'm pretty sure no one has ever supported their position on gun control with "well, Liam Neeson agrees with me."

Duke Igthorn posted:But the movies aren't American and neither is Neeson so how can they be saying anything about America? He's in an action movie shooting people roughly every four months and, to illustrate their point, they choose the three that aren't American. poo poo, that's news to me. I'm assuming that was an American too and that's about as far as I was going to go with that trail of assumptions.

A gang of militants attacking an installation by throwing deflated footballs at it would indeed be strange enough behavior to warrant an investigation.

It's kind of comforting to know how easily people can completely forget 2+ years of Fox news reporting. Maybe if Rowdy Rod Piper and Kieth David blew up Fox's main broadcast transmitter the healing could begin.

If someone went out and attacked a bunch of people with a sword would you blame Lord of the Rings or would you blame the person.

I got this sent to me by a family member, its par for the course really. Its a lengthy article and I responded to the economic bits, I ignored these paragraphs though:quote:Over the course of 2014 the prices the world pays for crude oil have tumbled from over $125 per barrel to around $45 per barrel now, and could easily drop further before heading much higher before collapsing again before spiking again. You get the idea. In the end, the wild whipsawing of the oil market, and the even wilder whipsawing of financial markets, currencies and the rolling bankruptcies of energy companies, then the entities that financed them, then national defaults of the countries that backed these entities, will in due course cause industrial economies to collapse. And without a functioning industrial economy crude oil would be reclassified as toxic waste. But that is still two or three decades off in the future.

I am all about personal responsibility. Now let me tell you why I can't make more money because of Obama, can't find more work because of illegal immigrants, can't call gay people fags without being called a bigot because of political correctness, and can't avoid saying racist poo poo constantly because black people are just objectively dumb, lazy criminals.

darthbob88 posted:My problem is that they assume you live in a vacuum with nigh-limitless resources. Like, while the Best Choice financially I could make would be to start investing, whether in stock or skills, but that requires financial resources which I do not have, so that course of action is not available to me. Or I can look for work so I can get cash to invest, but employers are not in a rush to hire black lesbians. I totally understand that "Make the best of a bad situation and stop digging yourself deeper" is good advice, but it's too drat easy to go from that to "Ignore the fact that you're in a bad situation and we're making it worse". Exactly. Its like I lock you in a windowless room with a gun and tell you'll starve to death unless you shoot yourself in the foot then, for the rest of your life, disregard everything you say because "Remember that time you shot yourself in the foot? What an idiot." People sometimes make stupid decisions because that's the only decision they have left. The entire point of civilization is to provide choices, to make "stealing" an active choice because there are programs to help. Instead they cut and demonize and hate hate hate until you're backed into a corner and then deride you for making "the wrong choices". quote:Boston still hasn't got rid of all of the idiotic “Boston strong” stickers (no, Boston was not destroyed by a few firecrackers and a few amputee actors bursting bags of fake blood to pretend that they just had a leg blown off). And now Paris is festooned with eerily similar "I am Charlie" stickers. Salvor_Hardin posted:
