But when you’re sitting in the front during a crash the snack cart comes by one more time.

a pacifist as the paradox of tolerance is a difficult thing to have to come to terms with and I’m fundamentally a flawed human being
Don’t think of it as a paradox - tolerance is a social contract, once you break the terms you’re no longer protected by that contract because accepting that would nullify the contract for all of us.
The grandmother of a friend always used to say - wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which one is filled first.
I mean…at least they were dead? That’s a courtesy some of Weinstein’s and Epstein’s victims had to take in their own hands.
Yeah and sometimes it just rubs off on each other, like I was never the gardening guy but her enthusiasm about it was infectious and now I find myself getting excited about how many tomatoes a single plant can grow or what beautiful colors the tiny corn poppies can produce.
And the other way around - a friend gave me a ‘Quark’ shirt for my birthday and my girlfriend said ‘ugh ferengies are so ugly, couldn’t he have given you a Spock shirt, I like him more’ and I was soooo proud of her.
You just learn to enjoy their excitement about their boring shit until you start to share the excitement and you start to enjoy the thing too.
Still no relevant response to what I pointed out, buddy,.
Nope, not what we were talking about mate. Op said:
That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.
You said :
It’s not in the article, it’s in the comment you were replying to. What am I missing?
So don’t try to move the goalposts just because you talked shit, I’m sick of this bullshit.
We were talking about why a, admittedly monstrous, rapist needs to be used to demonize a whole demographic. You pretended like that wasn’t in the article, I proved it was, that is the fucking conversation we’re having here.
Oh I don’t know maybe the first three words?
MONSTERS APPEAL MIGRANT
Or the next three words that follow
the MONSTER migrant
Instead of maybe “the rapist”, no we got to tie in that he is a migrant in all caps, at every possible turn.
Also further down referred to as
the MONSTER
Or
the migrant
Oh and also let’s rope in some unrelated burglar who also happens to be a migrant.
All very easy to spot so I figure you’re not really asking in good faith, just like someone who has an agency in “just asking questions” would do.
Eye of the tiger plays faintly from somewhere.
But also topless, because what are mortars and hand grenades?
Saudi Human rights commission is like marriage counseling in a brothel.

But I’m Le tired.
Have a nap, then FIRE ZE MISSILE!
that has happened due to enormous errors made by the organisers.
And the police.
For example Hypothyroidism, Cushing syndrome, pco-syndrome or lipedema and several metabolic deficiencies. Then there’s also a plethora of psychological issues that can influence the metabolism and eating habits negatively. Even the social status has an proven effect on the bodyweight.
All we have is a couple of pictures of the child, it’s impossible to tell what is going on.
Well, one of her kids is obese, and I would call that abuse.
Personally I wouldn’t be so quick to judge on that. 1 out of 3 kids we can see in the photos is overweight, the other two look healthy. There might be something else at play with that one child, which is out of her control, we don’t know that.
The linked article doesn’t say it was a AR-15 it says assault-style rifle and I would consider the specific model to be splitting hairs, since it hardly matters to the conversation.
But to be truly pedantic the article a little further down specifies it as an Assault style semi-automatic rifle, so fair enough.
but to clarify that fully automatic weapons are much more rare, and much more dangerous.
Agreed. Still, semi-automatic assault style rifles pose a unique danger in that they could be “upgraded” to fire full auto, although it being illegal. Most of those are derived from regular fully automatic weapons and the layout allows them to be converted more easily. For example a SL08 with I think 4 parts switched can be operated like it’s military counterpart, the G36.
Afaik there is no state where an underage person is allowed to handle assault style fully automatic weapons without the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. So even if it is his gun, it falls under parental supervision until 18 years old.
Semi automatic or hunting rifle is a little more murky.
Anyway I think that your comment nailed it - a person under 18 was able to obtain and handle a gun without supervision is a failure to secure.
As others mentioned, most apps offer word filters, just got to hit enough key words. I blocked the word “Tr*mp” and it cleared my main feed up real good already, with some fine tuning I guess I can get rid of the rest too.
