We've always been allies with Venezuela.

That says a lot about a nation's sovereignty when they need permission from an uninvolved 3rd party to do international business.

(D) Chris Murphy says assault weapons ban, expanded background checks not on the table in bipartisan deal, instead they are focused on spending for mental health and beefing up security at schools. Looks like Mitch McConnell's plan worked to perfection.

Back in the day, before background checks even existed, and when kids would take guns to school for shooting clubs, these mass shootings never seemed to occur with any regularity. Only when the media started to make the shooters famous did we start to see this stuff. But of course we can never place the blame where it really belongs.

 

[Lards and Lasses]

Guys, quit doomering about A&H going away. It's not. Null is looking for mods again but this time wants a team with a real plan to make it better. That's it.

You should be glad.

My economics teacher in high school said the same thing. He said he used to bring his rifles and shotguns to school all the time to show his football coach or a few of his teachers. He said they would leave them in the truck for after school so they could do some shooting or go hunting. He said some would take them into the school and leave them in their lockers for shooting club after school.

Why is his approval on "covid" so high compared to the others?

How do you "approve" of Joe Biden on abortion? What has he "done" for it?

I mean I know he's not "done" anything other than shut down keystone, but...

A&N most days:

The problem is a great lack of engagement with the rest of the forum, which has created a culture conflict. Think of it like a bunch of immigrants setting up camp in a previously culturally homogenous area. While individual members of that immigrant group might be able to successfully integrate with the surrounding culture, the large majority of them will tend to ghetoise and become insular, simply because they're culturally distinct. It leads to resentment in both directions; the native culture feels threatened by the influx of potentially incompatible culture and sees it as the cause of all the issues it experiences from that moment forward, while the immigrant culture resents having to adapt and subsume to its new environment and alien cultural mores. Sometimes it can work out, if the cultures are compatible enough to merge peacefully into one another, but a lot of the time the end result is some level of conflict, until one culture becomes dominant and the other is suppressed.

Basically what I'm saying is, the only solution that doesn't lead to A&H being nuked is for A&H members to join the wider board and become part of it, rather than becoming an insular minority that finds itself constantly scapegoated for everything wrong with the site.

I'm guilty of that. There are a few other places on the site I check out and respond in occasionally, but largely, I've contained myself, not wanting to be a pain in the ass to the autistic cowhunters. But that's a good point.

Anybody have a cow recommendation (not a troon. I cannot abide troons. Preferably a poli, celeb, or a feminist) I can put in minimal effort hatebonering for?

Probably includes a federal red flag law then.

Just browse the boards, read some OP's. You'll know if someones up your alley from that.

It's easy to approve of that when you don't hear anything bad, and they can put it out of mind. The two worst ones are what the voter votes on most, though.

Lowtax shot himself in head and the SA Forums are so lame no one bothers making fun of them any more. Basically:

N-no u baka

If only impotently flinging shit would save your safespace, faggot. Tell me again who made the PM Chain to hide from a sperging nurse with what I assume is a weirdass complex about his sister's daughter?

Actually, more accurately. Tell me who's buttblasted someone isn't agreeing with his shitty take and being used as a self-demonstrating example? At least you're not sperging out about jews or niggers like the others. So many do it it's almost fucking infectious.

You could take a look at the Breadtube community watch thread. I think a few of them have their own threads in Internet Famous.

I don't post in it much, but the Spoony thread is always good for a laugh. Or the Linkara thread.

 

[CarlosDanger]

I think they will try but I'm not sure if it will make it or not, the problem with red flags are even those that support them think they are better handled by the state than federally, plus it is going to probably end up at the Supreme Court at some point.

That, and also the destruction of the nuclear family as a functional model.
Look at a lot of these mass shooters and you notice a trend..it's not that they were poor wittle abuse victims, it's that they were spoiled with everything except love and structure. Absentee parents and loose family values have contributed more to Americans violent crime epidemic than guns have.

That, and the overall godlessness of our culture.

I only follow 2 lolcows (Russell Greer and Bam Margera), aside from Chris. It's hard to concentrate on more than a couple lolcows at a time. I hear that Lucas Werner is pretty entertaining, but there's A LOT lore to read up on about him before you can even participate in that community without getting swamped with "late" stickers or being told to lurk more.

A&N is a great resource to filter through the bullshit that is MSM. The only downside of it is the occasional glow-op or schitzo post.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

I cannot be the only one annoyed at doomers assuming Democrats have near-mythical abilities to bypass any and all safeguards, protocols, and systems in the country.


If this were even remotely true then they'd have already done so, and how, and -none- of the setbacks we have seen them take would have ever occurred

The alternative is believing there's more people who are stupid enough to vote for Biden. Give me the alternative any day, it's a much simpler problem to solve than the country just being retarded.

 

[Meat Target]

The primary reason to keep A&H is because politicians, celebrities, and journalists are really just lolcows with money and power. Thus, the Thunderdome is true to the spirit of Kiwi Farms.

Most did not vote for Biden, they either voted against Trump or for Generic Democrat. The number who actively voted for Biden is as big as his rallys.
