Jonas Albrecht posted:So what's the odds on December being the month that Trump deflates? I think if it's going to happen, it'll happen now. It seems like the other GOP candidates are bringing out everything they have to defeat Trump, but if he makes it through Iowa and New Hampshire unscathed I think he'll be the nominee for sure.

The emphasis is on the physically moving forward part, which is what the anniversary is all about. I don't think it's as bad as you all are making it out to be. Yeah, these were my thoughts exactly.

Good god. How does stuff like this happen? And can the victims of this have their cases retried / sue the officers involved?

Nonsense posted:This was always a loving dumb reason. It was extremely obvious this was something more, when the first pipe bomb was found, and his loving wife was shooting dudes with him. Isn't "snapped and shot up the place and brought pipe bombs" pretty much exactly what happened at Columbine? The fact that the suspects worked at the place for years, and their choice of a target with very little symbolic value make me think that this was probably a Columbine-like politically-unmotivated shooting, and not an ISIS attack or whatever.

So on a slightly different topic, apparently the primaries this year aren't scheduled to start until February. Why is that? IIRC in 2012 they started in the first or second week of February.

Your Dunkle Sans posted:The Something Awful Forums > Discussion > Debate & Discussion: The Problem Attic > USPOL Dec: Asked what prompted it, Mr. Trump said, "death" This needs to happen. Also,  at Trump's statement. It's deeply unnerving to me that this man is the frontrunner of one of the two major political parties, and that if he gets the nomination he is just one scandal / disaster / recession away from taking the presidency.

I actually agree with TheDisreputableDog here-- the US government should kill its citizens only if they pose an immediate threat (i.e. a gunman shooting people at a mall), and even then only as a last resort. If the US had sufficient evidence on al-Awlaki to convict him of a crime, they should have worked with the Yemeni government (who was also after him) to arrest him, and then either tried him in the US or let the Yemenis deal with him. Your right to a trial doesn't go away just because the government suspects that you are a member of a terrorist organization.

The other thing that still rubs me the wrong way is that we were clearly at war with the Confederacy (at least to my knowledge--feel free to correct this if I am wrong), whereas the battle lines in The War Against Terrorism are a lot murkier.

BetterToRuleInHell posted:Guys, enough of the serious political talk, let's get back to making fun of people. Remember those dumbass republicans who wanted to bomb Agrabah? Well, turns out democrats are just as loving stupid...but nice! That's a plus, I guess. If I had forgotten that Agrabah was fictional, I probably would have answered yes. A refugee is a refugee; I don't really care where they're from.
