loquacius posted:So is Branco just completely unaware that Mateen was born in NYC and is not a foreign invader of any type whatsoever, and that More Gun Control would therefore have stopped him from doing anything (esp since he had already been investigated by the FBI and was on watchlists etc) or is this just an especially impressive display of willful density Um, excuse me, was Mateen white? I think you'll find that nooo, he wasn't. Ergo immigrant, ergo terrorist. Actually, as he was only first generation American, the line is that he was an anchor baby.

Hitler B. Natural posted:Here's a terrible idea for a tribute that certainly never occurred to me This deserves credit for sheer tone-deafness and incongruity. It's a form of absurdist humor built on a tragedy. Impressive level of callousness at work, here, bravo. I'm the white outlines on the black stars because the cartoonist either doesn't know how to use the fill tool, or used MS Paint to make this.

Without getting into I/P chat and speaking from a purely numbers perspective: Israel has really strong gun control, and as a result, the recent violent streak (violence from non state actors that is) has been mostly stabbings, with relatively few killed.

If we could have just one national tragedy that didn't result in a shitload of trite and tone-deaf memorial cartoons that would be swell. Also, you know that we queers don't actually bleed rainbow blood, right?

I know this isn't the stupid things from family and friends thread, but the response was:quote:"I guess when you finally realize you can't apologize for radical Islam AND be pro gay (or pro women), the only thing left you can grasp at is guns. Because we all know terrorists without legal guns would be finished. Makes me want to punch people.

Holy gently caress, no one knows how to make a tasteful "Lots of gay people died" cartoon. I'm willing to grant that perhaps there is no such thing. But holy gently caress these are worse than usual.

While that Summers thing is still the runaway leader for worst cartoon about Orlando, this is the worst thing to come from a cartoonist of actual talent. Also, it's really bad. What-the-gently caress bad.

Jacket spends most of that game wandering into clubs in Florida and murdering everyone there. It'd be kind of like this 9/11 comic panel:
