Re: WTF in America

Shocking story on National Public Radio. Hopefully this will be a wake-up call for people who blithely shop at flea markets, thrift stores and the like.

Re: WTF in America

Apparently the alleged shooter, who is in custody, was a rapper (aged 21 or 22) who published his performances online. At one point he stated that he was resentful when other people got more...

Re: WTF in America

Re: WTF in America

That Marjorie Greene quote is so odd. First, in claiming that the right to own firearms is “god given.” Certainly the authors of the second amendment didn’t claim that! Then suggesting that the...

Re: WTF in America

Well I assume you realise I was just being ironical in raising mental health - just rehearsing gun-rights folks defective talking points. Same with mentioning baseball bat etc.

Re: WTF in America

Re: WTF in America

As usual, the English are a bit more direct. In Cerne Abbas, they just have a picture of a high school student.

Re: WTF in America

In fact - even before the manufacturer is sued, perhaps they could be encouraged to distribute the $1,800 that Mr. Ramos paid them for the gun, to the victims. They should give $40 or so to each of...

Hmm. There’s an increasing number of newspaper stories I’ve seen the headlines of countless times, but lack the motivation to actually read & find out what the actual story is about. This is one of...

Re: WTF in America

This is one of the most deeply strange posts I’ve ever read on BE.

And that’s saying a lot.

Re: WTF in America

Hopefully, this person will eventually be too old and decrepit to befriend & dismember girlfriends. As a New York taxpayer, I resent having to pay the room and board for too many more decades.

Re: WTF in America

:lol: True I didn’t think of it that way! I think from his point of view, he was confident he would eventually get back to his car, so he hadn’t reached the stage of seeking help.
