  1. I hope someone rubs their balls on your drum set.
  2. Boomercons were so successful with the en masse bombing of the term "snowflake" against libs in 2016 that it has haunted them ever since.
  3. Reminds me of a story my dad likes to tell. Back in 1980 he was kitchen manager at a restaurant/bar in a small college town. Day after Lennon was killed the college radio station (which was always on in the kitchen) was playing Beatles/Lennon solo songs all day and were taking requests. One of the characters that worked in the kitchen called in and requested live on the air, you guessed it, "Happiness Is a Warm Gun."
  4. The problem with the sequel trilogy isn't so much the protagonist (though Finn is the more natural protagonist than Rey) or even ruining Luke's character but the laziness that led to both of those decisions. Oh, Anakin wasn't the chosen one after all. Oh, look, Palpatine is actually not dead. Oh, the Empire wasn't actually defeated. Oh, Leia never went on to be a great stateswoman. Oh, no, Luke never really made it as a Jedi Master. Han is never redeemed from his criminal past. Let's just reset all of that so we can just hit rewind and run the same story as the original trilogy all over again. Junk collector (moisture farmer) from backwater planet Jakku (Tatooine) encounters a BB-8 (R2 unit) who reveals information that represents the New Republic's (Rebel Alliance's) only hope to destroy the First Order (Empire). Press play, #######s.
  5. https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/st-louis-man-gets-life-for-fatal-car-crash-some-say-race-played-a-factor-39834514 An exemplar of why you should ignore any arguments from progressives on reducing criminal penalties that reference "deterrence." Once convicted of a crime involving egregiously gross disregard for human life and the commission of multiple felonies, surely you, the normal person, would be contrite and understand that you had deeply violated the social contract, no? If he can't even wrap his head around a basic understanding of what he's done, what "deterrent" do you think will work on him?
  6. Sorry I don't identify as a Trump fan and have been very publicly critical here of both him and China.
  7. If you want to split out firearms codes you'll have to drop the ranking and do a "group by" "cause of death" and then you can order the resulting table from most to fewest deaths, or you can switch to the ICD-10 113 cause list and select all the firearms groups manually so you eliminate salmonella and ***** from your table. The firearms splits aren't "rankable" like homicide or suicide generally are.
  8. CDC WONDER data. Underlying cause of death, single race, 2018-2021. https://wonder.cdc.gov/ucd-icd10-expanded.html
  9. Care to take a look and give us a quick analysis? The top dataset is white non-hispanic aged 0-17, inclusive. The bottom is black of any ethnicity aged 0-17, inclusive. Causes of death for all firearm codes 2018-2021.
  10. Well if anyone was curious, when you run the data in an honest way, and you start sorting by *REDACTED*, you get results that look like this: Even including suicide this dataset has less than half the firearm death rate of the US at large over the same amount of time. Meanwhile this next dataset, well: The rate here is is about 2/3rds HIGHER than the overall national rate.
  11. Wow I wonder what happened in 2020 that could have pushed firearm deaths higher
  12. Now and then I call your name And suddenly your face appears But it's just a crazy game When it ends, it ends in tears Pretty little darling, have a heart don't let one mistake keep us apart I'm not meant to live alone turn this house into a home When I climb the stair and turn the key Oh, please be there sayin' that you're still in love with me
  13. Oh, he knows. They all know that it’s graphic, sexual content marketed to children that’s the main target of this. They just think that 2nd graders should see depictions of blowjobs in their school libraries.
  14. And classical liberalism got us where we are today. It’s incredibly easy to subvert as has been shown in stunning fashion several times in the 20th century. To paraphrase Chigurh: if the constitution brought you to this, of what use was the constitution? GOP and libertarian nonsense about small government only works in the pre-1960s America. Even voting now as compared to then is not a genuine method of distilling the will of the people, but rather an acceptance of a marketing strategy from two parties who practically make out in the middle of the horseshoe. Oh and as for King, he would be tap dancing over the current state of the races in America. Another person that the GOP insists on embarrassing themselves over every year, tripping over themselves to pay obeisance to one of the gods of the modern left.
  15. The messaging from the left after Nashville was a barely-concealed green light for more of the same. And it worked.
  16. That he even needs a pardon should be a gigantic wake-up call to mainstream “conservatives.” The view that Daniel Perry and others are guilty of murder for defending themselves against BLM, antifa, and other leftist terrorists is organically popular and widespread among the general public. It’s the very definition of anarcho-tyranny: state, public, and media top cover when the criminals are left wing, balls to the wall prosecution to turn right wing victims of leftist terrorism into “criminals.” See also: Rittenhouse, Kyle. If Abbott did his homework it should be very low. I believe they are appointed by the governor.
  17. I might consider that an insult if you knew what communist meant. Or irony.
  18. If the “free market” means rich people force you to acknowledge untruth as truth and steal your stuff for themselves, then what’s communism?
  19. If leftists are going to lie about you anyway, you might as well have the balls to fight back.
  20. You’re talking about a guy who thinks that there should be $0 in public money going toward the new stadium. Not on principle, that I would get. But because it’s in orchard park.
  21. I mean people native to the United States. Not the people who had no part in its building and to this day maintain sovereign nation claims.
  22. Yeah, and as a result the US introduced strict quotas and caps in the 1920s. To, you know, keep the nation an actual nation rather than an economic zone. Meanwhile the share of foreign born population in the US in the last thirty years has nearly doubled. Oh, and most of those in the 1880s-1920 couldn’t vote. So they’re irrelevant to my point. But it’s a good try. Tenement housing does not a nation build.
