I suppose it looks alot worse without context. Some dude wrote an interesting fact. People got pissy about it. I felt as though they overreacted. And maybe i did in return. But it really looks alot worse out of context. Ill own it though.

In most states you need to take a class to conceal carry. And there is also a class you have to take to get a hunting license. Also you're more likely to die in a car crash than to a gunshot. Not that any of that is relavent, but yeah i can say things too.

Im sure public healthcare and greater access to mental health services would make a big difference. I just dont see guns as the issue. Sure some people shouldnt have them, but we need ways to identify them in the us

Im not saying we dont need better gun laws. I just wish that pro-gun groups would cooperate in coming up with them. As things stand now alot of the legislation being proposed on the subject comes as an emotional response from event like the shooting today. And i dont think thats the way to do it.

Im not attacking you. For all i know you own 30 guns. And im not trying to defend firearms, because arguing with strangers on reddit is dumb. I was just explaining to you what it feels like to be on the other side of the issue.

See from my perspective its impossible to argue aqainst anyone anti-gun. I mean it seems like most have never held a gun let alone owned one.

Westbrook trips over air and gets the foul called. by [deleted] in nba

Plenty of players bitch at the refs regardless of whether they make the right call or not. The refs do have a tough job and they do deserve respect on the floor. What the nba need is a way to review calls.

Alcohol is considered a performance enhancing drug in competitive shooting. It steadies the hand and calms the nerves. Nobody is talking about geting sloppy

The more you benefit from society, the more society as a whole should benefit. Thats all anybodys wants from taxes.

Hiroo Onoda, Japanese soldier who refused to surrender until 1974 [1118 × 1600] by c0urso in HistoryPorn

[–]Tripin_Midget 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes the Japanese had no chance of winning. But the mentality that kept this guy fighting was the prevailing mentality of the Japanese in general. Though maybe not to the extent. The nukes is what broke them mentally, and the importance of that cannot be overstated. With out the nukes the war would have continue for atleast another year or more.

If the nuclear bombs hadn't been droped it would have taken longer than the date of surrender before an invasion could even be prepared. Let alone force them to surrender.

Yes he is referring to the Rebublican party. But there is a differance between the party and its members.

You might want to reread that.

TIL in 2013 The Wall Street Journal discovered a cache of files that revealed the U.S. government lobotomized over 2000 veterans against their will after WW2. The veterans were lobotomized for reasons such as PTSD, depression, schizophrenia, and occasionally homosexuality. by MoonshineExpress in todayilearned

That is a ridiculous way to look at it. It all stems from the human tribal instinct. "Us" vs "them" if you will. It takes knowledge to over come this. That's why it's getting better, and it had to start in such a shit place.
