What the gently caress was their target? This isn't just some random lone nut shooter. This is insane.

CarterUSM posted:Listening to the speech tones and cadences of a traffic reporter talk about the detours and traffic disruptions caused by the live killing of two suspects in a mass-shooting is just surreal. reminds me of when you sometimes hear people foreign to the US ask things like "Do people really have guns and shoot them at each other all the time" and it's like well yeah it fucks with my commute it's so annoying.

semper wifi posted:Not really, it's more like saying "an elementary school massacre and a biker gang shootout have almost nothing in common besides both being shootings". You're deliberately conflating the two so that you can have a stronger (but still paper-thin) case when you use "mass shootings" to push for gun control. Yes because preventing the mass murder of children and a shoot outs like it's the wild loving west are not good reasons to control who has guns. Why would people think those are good examples of things we should be trying to prevent?

EXTREME INSERTION posted:Because people in this thread (and other people, for that matter) for some reason keep insinuating that it's okay to shoot a bunch of people over a political disagreement, a sentiment that I have read multiple times over the last two weeks which is kind of creepy? I don't think people are trying to do that, but I can kind of see what you're getting at. Everyone isn't trying to justify why he did what he did, they're trying to rationalize what might go through the mind of a crazy person to rationalize it, or think of a way it might have been prevented. Like, maybe if someone had intervened and told the one coworker to drop his poo poo talking Islam, maybe it wouldn't have come to a head that day. Was it that guys fault? gently caress no, but in the mind of a crazy person it might have been the last straw that maybe could have been put off in time to catch on to what the shooters were planning. Basically everyone is trying to warp their minds around this and nobody is trying to justify it, but again I can kind of see what you mean even though I don't think you're correct in your assumptions.

I wonder why.

CalmDownMate posted:Pissing off the israelis and sparking violence between them and palestinians could surely only backfire on him in a general? How many primary candidates have caused a international incident before ? It will be pretty one sided if it does, and if the Palestinians get smashed by the Israelis in any sort of heightened conflict the base will be all for it.

Alzion posted:People seem to forget just how expansive those expansion packs were back in the day. You were essentially getting a new full game that was using the art assets and engine of the previous game. For example the original Starcraft had 30 misssions and Brood War had 28. New Vegas is exactly what you're describing above though. It's probably longer than Fallout 3 is in terms of hours of content.

If drawing a picture of calligraphy, because seriously they can't loving write it or know what it says, can convert you to Islam in the eyes of those people then they think Islam is basically magic and symbols can control people's minds. That's telling and somehow makes perfect sense.

I don't think many people who want to restrict access to abortion or any of that really believe it. They know a shitload of yokels out there do though, and that's who they're pandering to. There are tens of millions of people in this country that think that way, and they vote. That somehow makes it worse in my mind.

baseball and most people I've ever encountered that were involved in it (used to work a county job watching baseball/soccer fields over summer) were repugnant assholes. Most people I met who dealt with girls softball were creeps/borderline pedophiles and some of the most awful human beings I've ever met. Sounds American as hell to me.

This is unreal quote:McGinty’s office responded in an amended statement, claiming his initial comments were not meant to criticize Samaria Rice’s grieving process. “We have never once criticized Tamir’s mother or questioned her right to grieve in any way. We have met with her repeatedly and cooperated with her in every possible manner. And we will continue to do so.” gently caress everything.
