goDel Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 People believe what they want to believe. Makes no sense to try to "reason" with them. And I say "reason", because who the hell knows what that is... Anyways, enjoyed Neal Katyal's legal commentary on the 2nd amendment at Arie Melba Toast. Great clarification on what it is/isnt.

Nebraska Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 ^^ yeah, heard that before and i'm not sure how i feel about it. the way i see it- america has always had guns- and it's only now that we're talking about serious gun regulation because of all the shootings. i think instead we should be asking: why we have more shootings now rather than before? it's not even like guns are cheaper or easier to get. they're actually harder to get than they were 20 years ago. technically, we should have been having more gun violence before than we do now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignatius Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) ^^^ oh great. let's break the postal system so we can move forward w/privatizing it. these derps have no idea about what a "public good" is. regarding the NRA - it's pre columbine but it hit the stratosphere then for sure.. it was steadily gaining influence for quite a while before that.. certainly in the 80s. but for a long long time it was a gun safety organization... though it was full of racists in the south who feared black people. and coincidentally it sort of had its birth when the KKK was made illegal.

I've never seen a drinking fountain and can't imagine it's that hygienic being in so close proximity to well, the toilet. Granted, the water is clean (same water used to refill toilet tank and admittedly is efficient), but still - proximity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignatius Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 rise to high heights in the white house. one week you're getting coffee and then suddenly you're negotiating with house of saud https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/09/06/white-house-announces-jared-kushners-former-coffee-boy-new-middle/ Quote The new US-Middle East peace envoy will be a 30-year-old White House administrative assistant, President Donald Trump announced yesterday. Avi Berkowitz, an assistant to White House senior advisor and Mr Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, will inherit the role from Jason Greenblatt, formerly Mr Trump’s real estate lawyer, after Mr Greenblatt announced yesterday he would step down. Mr Berkowitz, who graduated from Harvard Law School in 2016, has no foreign policy experience. He joined the Trump campaign in 2016 and has since served as Mr Kushner’s right-hand-man in the administration. A 2017 Business Insider profile of Mr Berkowitz quoted former White House spokeswoman Hope Hicks as saying his main duties were “daily logistics like getting coffee and coordinating meetings.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
