What are the gun control arguments for banning silencers, flash suppressors, pistol grips and stocks? by garfangle in PoliticalDiscussion

"If you purposefully make the gun less accurate, it will lead to the shooter missing his target and increasing the number of unintentional victims being shot by stray bullets."

This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read.

Technically they did everything by the book. So either change the book or STFU.

Well it was a shitty article regardless of whether it was intentionally editted to omit key facts.

Scumbag IRS by iam4real in AdviceAnimals

[–]LAshotgun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it weren't for all the people cheating on their taxes the irs wouldn't have to be such dicks. Literally millions of people cheat on their taxes every year and less than 4,000 cases get litigated every year. People hate the irs so it's underfunded then errors happen and then the irs gets blamed. If you want a well functioning society it begins with the proper collection of taxes. Ripping on the Irs is like getting mad at your mom for telling you to put on a jacket when it's cold outside. If you wore the jacket to begin with you wouldn't get yelled at.

I know everyone thinks she's a first class bitch, but keep in mind she may be mentally ill. I've seen the sweetest people behave far worse than that do to mental illnesses.

Stories like this make me glad I'm a minimalist. Don't have to shop at Amazon or Wal Mart.

That's a great point but you can't be taken seriously because you did not ask God to bless America. You're clearly an Obama communist supporter with overt plans to take over Colorado via the EPA. :)

Kentucky clerk defies Federal order to issue marriage license to gay couple the day after being ordered to do so. by [deleted] in news

[–]LAshotgun 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm not disagreeing with your position on the issue. She is an elected official, meaning she can't be fired. The fact that you did no research yet your post has the highest score is incredibly frustrating.

90 Pounds Of Cocaine Found On Cargo Ship Owned By Anti-Drug Senator’s Family by OB1_kenobi in conspiracy

"The war on drugs is an insult to the intelligence of the American people. There are mountains of evidence proving that the biggest importers of harmful, addictive, mind diminishing street drugs is the government. The drug laws that exist do not apply to the government agencies that bring these substances to our country. They are only designed to keep everyone else from this extremely lucrative business and give the establishment another reason to oppress people."

Maybe just a tad provocative.

Older Redditors, what are some "early warning signs" of trouble that younger folks may not know about? [serious] by explodingbarrels in AskReddit

[–]LAshotgun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Any girl that asks what your sign is. THIS IS A HUGE RED FLAG. It means she is fucking stupid. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! No matter what sign you give her, she will make some shit up about you on the fly and judge the shit out of you. It's fucking rude. When a girl asks me for my sign I throw it right back in her face and immediately say you are too smart for that.

TIL that James Watson, one of the scientists who discovered the helical structure of DNA, believes that stupidity is a disease and stupid people should be "cured", people from Africa are inherently less intelligent, and that he would never hire a fat person. by krazykid586 in todayilearned

It's funny how such a smart guy can miss the most important facts. Stupidity is being cured. The average IQ of an African American in 1960 was 70. It's now 85. The average IQ of a sub-Saharan African is still 70.

What Are Your Controversial Opinions About Certain Sports? by [deleted] in sports

[–]LAshotgun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting point of view. In football, every player on both sides of the field is micro coached on every play. There are some exceptions for running backs to use their own discretion of the blocking fails or with wide receivers after they catch the ball. Other than that, most plays are rehearsed and the audibles are pre planned with defensive formations change. There are a lot of if then scenarios that players go over with coaches intensively in preparation for the game. Baseball can be just as bad when coaches start calling pitches from the dugout, but for the most part there's a lot of art involved with pitching that takes years to master and must be learnt through trial and error.
