Why anybody would wish for so many people do die is just... ugh.

Consistency? You can't be pro choice but believe every life is precious at the same time, that would be a self contradiction. So yeah, she can wish death on whoever she wants, it helps her cause.
 
I don't see what's controversial about that statement, she wasn't even that explicit.

I for one think the world would be a better place if all aforementioned Republicans died swift deaths.

I assume you also want everyone in other countries who's beliefs are similar to those of American Republicans to die as well. So countless millions of people in other countries around the world, as well as 100 million Americans. And, of course, most Muslims in most Muslim countries. So you could be looking at a billion or more dead people. I don't know, a billion dead bodies would be hard to deal with, just as a matter of disposal.
 
Who?

Oh.

I loved her in that one movie where she switched places with that guy.

Shes like a hot-mother of a younger cameron diaz.
 
It's definitely too much to be wishing death on people, but to be fair there are no sane right-wingers here or anywhere else.
Too much? Wishing death upon anyone who holds different values is Taliban-level fucked up. I hope this isn't indicative of the way people actually think.

...and "but" nothing. There's absolutely no excuse.
 
Democrats have tried to do the same thing recently trying to introduce "Assualt weapon" bans and bans on buying ammo online.
I agree with a assault weapon ban. Why the hell do you need a ar-15 to hunt, do need to pump 300 rounds a min into a deer? Assault rifles are made for one thing only, killing humans. You don't see the army handing out hunting rifles to our troops because they are not designed for war.

Hold up, I only want the anti-gay, anti-poor, anti-minority, anti-woman republicans to die. Nix the plans for the billion body graveyard, we shouldn't need to go that far!

Maybe 'want to die' is coming off a bit strong, though, if they did happen to die, we'd probably be better off.

I have an idea, how about if we make a thread and get up in arms when an actual right wing politician, not some actress, says something deranged and fucked up about gay people. Because if we did? The whole OT would be filled with threads of only that.

So yes, it's extreme language but you know what, right wingers? You have rotten views on basically everything. You're anti-woman, anti-gay, anti-equality, anti-reality, backward, bizarre and basically a blight on everything that's good about humankind. You're holding the whole world back and people are tired of it.
 
The only thing offensive is your disregard for the rights of all Americans.
I don't see anywhere in the bill of rights that says you can own a assault rifle. You can still have other types of guns, why do you need a assault rifle? I've used a ak-47 its wildly inaccurate and useless for anything other then spraying bullets all over the place. So again why do you need it?

Ignoring the rest of the dribble, if people are so tired of republicans, you have nothing to worry about.

It doesnt say anything about abortion in the bill of rights explicitly either does it. Besidss I prefer an M4 to an AK. AKs are crap designed for mass conscript peasants to spray an area with ammo. M4/M16 and M14 are far more precision. The SCAR is another good one and that's not even getting into tons of others,
 
"I don't wish death on anyone, not even those radical-leaning Republicans in the convention. I only wish for the hurricane to target each individual and inflict life-threatening but stable conditions, extreme pain, and comatose conditions inflicting misery and pain that can last decades while still not ending their lives."

There's your answer, GAF.
 
Show me a Republican making similar comments and I'll be equally outraged. I'm sure there are Republicans out there, somewhere, calling for the death of pro-tyranny (big gov), anti-life, anti-family, anti-community, anti-free speech, anti-religious left-wing bigots.

Hyperbole, caricature, and a refusal to see things from the Other's perspective has a habit of turning people into ignorant psychos.
 
Gaf is going to be great when we're just a week away from the elections. I already bought a stockpile of popcorn.
 
She retweeted someone saying they should be washed into the ocean. Saying she 'hopes the hurricane kills them' is a bit of a stretch even by loose Internet standards.

It's sort of the obvious assumption. I'm not sure what else she could've meant.

yeah fucking bigots

infringing on my right to hate gays and blacks

I thought this was america

Maybe she was hoping they would be baptized in the ocean or washed away in the ocean, where they discover Atlantis and move there, so they could live in their own utopia.

Something tells me she hopes they get more than just a little bit wet. But if not, no worries, we got GAF members to cover here.

I think you need to look up the definition of bigot, because it includes a lot more than skin color and sexual orientation. Yes, religious beliefs are included...as are political leanings.

(hint: there are bigots in this very thread)

Saying "I like black people and gays!" does not give you a free get out of being a bigot card. You can give yourself a pat on the back, though. It's a start.
 
Come on, guys. We need at least 4 pages for these twitter non-events to make it all worth it. Stir the pot some more! Somebody! Anybody!

I think it's safe to say that anyone who wishes death on over half our country and probably 90% of the world's population in general isn't a model for tolerance.

Well a) retweeting what someone else said isn't necessarily the same thing as saying something yourself and b) saying 'I hope this group of people gets washed away by a hurricane out to sea' isn't necessarily the same thing as saying 'I actually and literally hope this group of people is killed.' It's a terribly hyperbolic thread title. As for her retweeting it, well, that was pretty dumb.

I agree the m4 is a fine rifle, I used it in the army. I just don't see a use for it outside of war other then the cool factor. I sure as hell would not hunt with it when a hunting rifle would do a much better a job. 5.56 rounds are kinda pansy to be hunting wild life with.

I just enjoy precision and gas powered weapons (love to try a piston one). It's easy to mount optics on which is god considering my eyesight can be a bit strained when doing long range shooting. Also a good one has little recoil, at least the Danield Defense LW V5 I had, had little. Semi auto helps with me and maintaing aim in between shots.

For varmint and maybe maybe deer, but personally I'd love to try a Garand to hunt with. I mean it's got the range and round.
