Et tu!?

Mess.

He thought Hillary's name was Hilda. And she should be President because she is nice. And also because her dad was President. We tried to tell him that Bill was her husband, but he disagrees.The kid also thinks the best Ninja Turtle is Leonardo, so there's no arguing with him.

Umm he is the best. Michelangelo is a lazy idiot, Donatello is a stiff nerd, and Raphael is an asshole.

All hired straight from their entries in Romney's famous binder. It really was full!

On a side note, I swear, it's PoliGAF's favorite past-time to take random pictures of crowds and exclaim "wow, look at all the white people." I bet if I took a picture of PoliGAF members in the same room I could say the same thing!

Man, I spent like 5 minutes looking and still saw nobody non-white. Are you sure?

 

[User 463088]

They all want to do him.

I mean...who doesn't?

Umm he is the best. Michelangelo is a lazy idiot, Donatello is a stiff nerd, and Raphael is an asshole.

Raph is the best. And I will hear nothing against him.

Go straight down from the e in states. It's almost impossible to see

He is very handsome

 

[User 463088]

He is very handsome

Do you think he's had his teeth capped or something? It kinda looks like it in that picture.

 

[Tamanon]

Well I'll be damned.

Mikey is the hardest worker of the group! And I say this as a fan of Leo and Don.

Probably just good hygiene and cosmetic dentistry. My wife's are like that. Makes me jealous.

 

[User 463088]

It's like Racist Where's Waldo.

 

[shem935]

Well I'll be damned.

There is another directly to the right of that one and one row down.

 

[metalslimer]

Obama going to speak again. I guess he has to but there really is nothing left to say

 

[HylianTom]

They all want to do him.

I'll bet the girls like you, huh? Do the guys?

This EgyptAir investigation feels like it's been going on forever.

 

[BlastProcessing]

Okay, I actually made a typo, and meant to say "the only reason we are even talking about it right now."

Even then, Orlando is still a major driver in the current gun control conversation.

There seems to be a pattern where you force yourself to look at an issue through a keyhole. I think you would make stronger arguments if you broadened your scope.

 

[shem935]

I love how Comey's testimony directly refutes all of that. GG republicans.

 

[Crisco]

As an Egyptian myself, let me tell you, we are some lazy mother fuckers. The work ethic that built all those wonders no longer exists there!

So I think we're agreeing on the direction of action but I do want to say, like, I don't actually agree that perfectly stable people turn into active shooters, I think that's kind of my point.

Almost all the mass shooters we've seen have not been very stable. They've had unstable jobs, unstable relationships, unstable housing, etc. Because they aren't stable people because of their serious personality issues, and that's the whole problem. There aren't any happily married fathers of three with two-story houses going out and shooting thirty people. In general the reaction from those around them is basically "yeah, that guy was dangerous." Often their family has specifically been trying to control their access to other people or dangerous items because they know the risk is there.

The majority of people will never, even if they lose their job and house and family, turn into mass shooters. That's why it's so important to focus on the people who might, because they are actually distinguishable and identifiable well before they hit the point of action.

I think this is a language thing. I'm not using "stable" in the sense of "opposite of unchanging." I mean that not every shooter would be diagnosed with something wrong by straight-up doctors. Like, even if mandatory psych evals were required, I still think a lot of shootings still happen. When I was talking pet peeves, I meant that as a nation we've decided that mentally ill people are evil and evil people are mentally ill. It's a tautology.

Like the following example...

but how do you start this?

not to start a personal story too long but i have a family member who posts racist and inflammatory stuff all the time on facebook, gets very angry in discussions, is obsessed with guns, has OCD, can't hold a steady job, dropped out of college due to stress, etc and my wife and I agree that we wouldn't' be surprised if when something bad happened in his life that he could be one of these stories... how do you approach that situation? The parents aren't too helpful and help enable him, but i dont think its my place to push the topic.

...I don't think this person would set off any legitimate protocols. This person isn't crazy, but they are somehow still a person that we don't want to have guns. What's the criteria here? I'm honestly not sure.

Let's not do this nonsense. I can think of quite a diverse range of posters in these threads across a lot of demographics. If this is you being your nonsense character, I'll move along, but it's getting pretty tiring to distinguish your intentionally bad posts from your legitimate ones.

 

[Y2Kev]

I thought Walker was really anti-Trump. It seems like they all can't wait to fold in on themselves for him. Walker isn't smart enough to do otherwise I guess.

Go to a meet up.

A close read of this gives the picture of frightened Republicans. Walker specifically says "A vote for anyone other than Trump" which is a call against the (probably larger than we thought, according to internals) group of GOP voters who're going to ditch the ticket this year for the Libertarians or Constitution Party.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

"New Freedom Group" is such a lame name for an anti-government group.

It feels like a computer would have generated that name first.

Also, let's stop shooting people, former marines.

Ok, this is probably true. I still don't see the use in constantly pointing out white crowds, though.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

It's not that weird for a marine to be a gun nut, but it is pretty weird when a marine joins an anti-government organization.

 

[Iolo]

Ok, this is probably true. I still don't see the use in constantly pointing out white crowds, though.

Input from a more diverse set of people might help Republicans stop doing things like this:

Trump's "Make America Safe" convention night will be heavy on tales of illegal immigrants committing crimes.

His rallies almost always have people who have been hurt or have lost family members to immigrants speak beforehand.

President Obama just had a news conference, but he doesn't have a clue. Our country is a divided crime scene, and it will only get worse!

Our country is totally divided and our enemies are watching. We are not looking good, we are not looking smart, we are not looking tough!

I don't ask those questions anymore.



RNC finally releases a partial speaking list:

Cruz or Christie are not headliners. Ouch.

 

[User 463088]

That schedule is pathetic.

And Cleveland is going to be a fucking disaster.

 

[Wilsongt]

The irony in this statement is so thick you need a high powered lazer just to breech the surface.

You can play with that "Make America..." Line is so many ways.

"Make America a slave nation again."

"Make American white again."

"Make America 1950s again."

"Make America poor again."

"Make America hated again."

"Make America orange again."

"Make America pure again."

"Make America sexually repressed again."

"Make America live in an Orwellian future."

"Make America read Ayn Rand."

 

[Gotchaye]

That's a lot of Trumps.

Bill on the sax?

You should bold the "a" just to be clear. Cause I read that totally wrong.

 

[B-Dubs]

Given what the sax part sounds like in that song he'd be doing one after the other.

 

[Wilsongt]

God. I wish someone would go and put the "America first" bullshit on blast. Just shout out about how nonsensicle that movement was

 

[User 463088]

I still think Hillary should use the Melissa Etheridge song "What Happens Tomorrow."

[User1608]

Keep on painting a broad stroke on us, Trump fuckers.

 

[shem935]

Kerry Woolard, head of Trump's winery in Virginia, is a headliner over Cruz or Christie?

Edit: I guess that's on the Make America work again theme night. I'm sure a high class winery exec is what will fire up those industrial workers trump, you nailed it. Wonder how many plugs for Trumps businesses we will get.

 

[jiggle]

What's wrong with fight song?

 

[Y2Kev]

Maybe that's why Scott Walker leaked his speech! He got demoted.

 

[User 463088]

What's wrong with fight song?

Nothing. I like Fight Song. But, you know, if she wants to get an even better song....

 

[Crisco]

The thing is that we're not really that polarized or divided on the actual issues. If you take politics out of it and just ask people how they feel about most major policy, you'll find the majority of Americans agree. Most want universal healthcare, stricter gun control, higher tax rates for the rich, less foreign intervention, etc.....

 

[Owzers]

I feel like Trump is the kinda guy who would order police to open fire on BLM protesters.
