rob Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 I don't know... I know him pretty well, do you? Â Anyway, I'm with you on crazy people, though. They're everywhere. What to do? I just try to pick a course between them all. Quote

rob Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 On the one hand, he says we have a moral obligation to do what we can to prevent more mass shootings, and on the other, he says none of the proposed legislation is guaranteed to prevent a mass-shooting or reduce killing "down to a thousand a year." Â Given how toothless the proposed "increases" in regulation are, I agree with both of his statements. Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 I'm no longer going to bother with a helmet, because they don't guarantee I won't get kilt. Â What is it about Harm Reduction that righties can't seem to wrap their walnuts around? Or is this just another manufactured issue for the bottom feeders in their base to dutifully parrot via their FB pages? And lest we forget who is responsible for blocking, and thus watering down, any and all gun control proposals? Â Wow, politics have gotten really, really stupid since the Tea Baggerz were shat out of a retarded, dyspeptic elephant. Â Â Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 "Mr. Vice President, would your proposal reduce incidents of gun violence by 1000% immediately, prevent all mass shootings, and ensure that every child gets exactly what they want for Christmas for the rest of eternity?" Â Quote

ivan Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 didn't seem to do the trick in new orleans? Quote
pink Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 didn't seem to do the trick in new orleans? Â Â i mean one that just wipes out this country completely ... Â i just remember a bunch looting and blaming after katrina. there was very little looting or blaming after the japan tsunami as far as i remember. Â Quote
ivan Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 watching the most recent episode of walking dead at the moment and it don't look like mass disasters in hollywood at least go peacefully  japan's plenty different - strict gun laws, yes? a culture built on conformity. tsunami destroyed everything that could be looted anyhow. nuclear melt-down probably helped folks stay in-doors too as for blaming, i don't understadn japanese culture well enough to know what that would look like, but i'd be suprised if there wasn't much monday-morning q'b'ing going on.

ivan Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 incidentally, saw a crazy docu on the tsunami last week: "tsunami and the cherry blossom" or some such - highly recommend, if only for the first 5 minute hand-held video from a group miles in from the coast who catch the total destruction of their city in detail, including at the end an entire nursing home, w/ all the old ladies n' rescue folks riding hte range before your eyes...
