    Off-Topic Lost my Dad last night

    My condolences, my friend. I can't add much to the wonderful advice that has already been shared. Hold onto those special memories of your father; help your mother through this sorrowful passage of life; and perhaps most importantly, be good to yourself and take time to sort through your own...

    Politics Is it time to get a firearm?

    I've often said, "If I'm facing down the barrel of one or more guns, is this a world I really want to live in?"

    Off-Topic RIP Robert Redford

    How's this for weird timing? We played "The Sting" on one of our screens a couple of weeks ago. What a good-looking man Redford was. The camera loved his face. Paul Newman was like that, too. I loved seeing "The Candidate" when I was young. A guilty pleasure of mine from his filmography...

    Politics The Charlie Kirk Thread

    ^ This. It's simple. A young kid who grows up in gun culture irresponsibly desires to go from bad/good guy with a gun to good/bad guy with a gun. Too bad he didn't opt for good/bad guy with a slingshot. Just another day in the SCOTUS Hellscape. Carry on.

    Politics American political violence — Is there an off-ramp?

    I probably agree with you, but the effort has to be made. The alternative is blood in the streets.

    Politics American political violence — Is there an off-ramp?

    There has to be law and order, education, and modeling compassion and empathy. If Trump had been jailed and a younger version of Biden had been in office, we might have avoided what we're looking at now. First off, Democrats need to gain full control of the federal government (and as many state...

    I'm not sure I'm familiar with the work of either. Oh, that's right. They're both on Ignore. So sorry.

    Good she doesn't have to release the names of those sources. I wonder what she calls those voices in her head?

    Politics The Charlie Kirk Thread

    I was thinking yesterday about whether Charlie Kirk's death would remain an enduring story. Now that it appears the murderer was just another MAGA gun nut, I think not. Sure, the hardcore types will continue to bray about Kirk the same way they do with Ashli Babbitt. But, I think the...

    Ahh ... no doubt the family are members of the party of personal responsibility. No blame for the parents for pushing guns on this kid? Everyone and everything gets blamed except oneself. Fits.

    I LOVE that meme. It's one of my faves and so descriptive of one of our regular posters.

    Yep, they cosied up to wackos way too long.

    Politics The Charlie Kirk Thread

    What remains is a troubled kid/young adult who had no business being around guns. THIS fact is what gets missed every ... single ... time. It would have been really tough to kill Charlie Kirk from distance with a slingshot.
