I know it's not unique to America, but I think we have a particularly strong issue with a sort of fatalistic fantasy role play. Our culture places a lot of value on justifiably killing people. The old trope of the every day "good guy" taking the law into their own hands is bedrock deep. We practically worship it. Laws like this give weak, cowardly, pathetic dudes the final push they need to not just kill, which happens all the time, but to be in a position where they think they can be praised for killing someone.

Fucking well said, man. That is the goddamn truth.

Would take a shotgun over a pistol 100/100 times there, if a gun was going to come into play (distance control, accuracy boost are two reasons). Hear you on the part about not confronting people, gotta evaluate from a distance and it was that sort of situation where you could be confident it was just a person who was fucked up. But yeah those people often have guns too, good point.

When it comes to weapons and confrontations i assume everyone is armed and proceed accordingly

Yea the second you walk outside you are putting yourself in danger but there are times where that is still the right move to make . People should be protective of their neighbors and their neighborhoods and there should be more legal protections in place for people in those situations.

Agreed. People ain't lying when they say we are losing our sense of community. And I'm as guilty of that as anyone.
 
@Prokofievian why in the fuck are Toronto Maple leafs tickets so expensive?

Was looking at a Canada trip with my bro in law. Both of us are hockey fans so of we wanted to see an original 6 team but it's like 600 for lower level and 250-300 for upper.
 
@AgonyandIrony

Wtiness how the anger of Gus's mother flows through Gus. He has completely lost emotional control.

You gotta hit up that secondary market and inquire about interesting trades. I'm not saying lead with it, but try to work it in that a pic of your butthole is on the table.
 
My neighbor asked if I wanted to come over and hit the bong and I declined. How do I ever expect to make any friends like this.

Also nobody REALLY knows what happened in that picture.

The second version of the story, apparently advanced by Wyandot Panther under questioning, was that McCrea was killed by a bullet fired by pursuing Americans.[7] James Phinney Baxter, in supporting this version of events in his 1887 history of Burgoyne's campaign, asserts that an exhumation of her body revealed only bullet wounds and no tomahawk wounds

Seems like our little autist wanted to ruffle your tribal feathers.
 
@Limbo Pete Was it you that said you were into Lord of the Rings? I know you are into Stephen King, but I couldn't remember if LOTR was you too.

I read the books as a kid but don't have any interest in fantasy as an adult. But what I've found really interesting about LOTR/Tolkien as an adult is how he wove his Catholic faith into his stories.

Romans 8:18-25
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that[a] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. 22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

He had some....weird positions on account of his faith. Supporting Franco in the Spanish Civil War for one. I can't reconcile admiring someone who supported some highborn piece of shit that tried to overthrow a democracy in order to reinstate a monarchy and then ran a brutal autocratic regime after slaughtering thousands of socialists in the name of the Church.

"They never made a move to impeach Obama despite the myriad scandals that popped up during his administration."

LOL, how do you even respond to that? Under any remotely reality-based appraisal, the Obama administration was the least scandalous since, what, Jimmy Carter? Dwight Eisenhower? The absolute worst Obama scandals wouldn't make Trump's top 100.

Nicholas, the anger of your mother flows through you. You joined Antifa for goodness sakes. Look at yourself in the mirror.
