Conservatives don't want to ban contraception- They just accept public schools providing misinformation and prudish social norms making them a hassle to acquire. Was it Sheldon Adelson who said that 'in my day birth control was for a woman to take a aspirin and keep it between her knees'?

We could make a series out of it. Suicide of the Week. Hell, why limit ourselves? Execution of the Week. Terrorist of the Week! I love it. Suicides, assassinations, mad bombers, Mafia hit men, automobile smash-ups...The Death Hour. Great Sunday-night show for the whole family.

Radbot posted:Please explain how you'd implement "militant secularism", tia You undermine hawks and MIC lobbyists by getting the US/Russia/China to destroy Daesh with hydrogen/neutron weapons. Force all ME nations to come to the table and share peaceful nuclear technology/talent. The President gives a speech explaining that America's greatest strength has been science and secularity. Europe drove out Jewish physicists and psychoanalyists because of backwards thinking - the USA took them in. Instead of executing or enslaving Nazi rocket engineers we made them citizens and went to the moon. E=MC^2 is more real, true, and powerful than any words in a holy book.

That is the whole point - people like Adam Lanza and this couple weren't just lashing out - they were intentionally trolling to create cultural dissonance.

EXTREME INSERTION posted:was the killdozer incident actually ruled as terrorism? I'm not sure, but a quick look at the wiki gave this nugget "God built me for this job", Heemeyer said in the first recording. He also said it was God's plan that he not be married or have a family so that he could be in a position to carry out such an attack. "I think God will bless me to get the machine done, to drive it, to do the stuff that I have to do", he said. "God blessed me in advance for the task that I am about to undertake. It is my duty. God has asked me to do this. It's a cross that I am going to carry and I'm carrying it in God's name."

Mass shooters and terrorists almost always have a grievance I was just a boy when the infidels came to my village in their Blackhawk helicopters. The infidels fired at the oil fields and they lit up like the eyes of Allah. Burning oil rained down from the sky and cooked everything it touched. I could only hide myself and cry as my goats were consumed by the fiery black liquid death. In the midst of the chaos, I could swear that I heard my goats screaming for help. As quickly as they had come, the infidels were gone. It was on that day I put a jihad on them. And if you don't believe it, then you'd better kill me now, because I'll put a jihad on you, too. Terrorist: I like you. You have balls. I like balls.

DOOP posted:This dude owns Condoning an act of terrorism? That's a 'No Fly' (and sooner or later 'No Gun') I actually haven't had reason to fly since before I attended Occupy - I wonder if one day I'll have a trip planned and find out I'm not going anywhere. It's not necessarily a bad system - it is just presently opaque with little recourse. Reason and Justice - our founding principles - demand we account for this in the endless work toward a safer, saner world.
