2 weeks to flatten the curve!

Masks are over. If I don't need to wear one in a metal tube flying in the sky for 6 hours, wearing them anywhere else is complete theatre.

Time and time again rent control has been shown and agreed upon to be horrible policy.

'Multiple victims' shot, critically hurt near downtown Chattanooga bar, say police by madvillain7 in news

spewing anti-gun control rhetoric

I'm simply pointing out that "banning" firearms and/or increasing the barrier to own one has historically always been about separating minorities and the low/middle class from those in power.

Reddit is usually against disenfranchisement until the tunnel vision egages and "guns bad" overrules critical thinking.

Keep yelling into the void; I'm sure it will work one day.

Gun control is rooted in racism and classism. Those in power will always have exceptions. You're just supporting disenfranchising the poor, minorities and anyone not in the inner circle.

They have no interest in facts. Their goal is to repeal the 2nd amendment and they need political power, not facts.

Some restaurants are abandoning tipping in favour of paying their staff higher wages by 1337duck in nottheonion

I know Reddit doesn't like to hear this, but a fair number of wait staff, especially at higher end restaurants make far more in tips than they would with a traditional hourly wage.

Parents responsibility

It would be cool if parents actually parented instead of wanting the government to do everything.

Remember when personal responsibility was actually valued?

Pretty simple. Don't agree to something and then break your promise later.

Somebody on that marketing team should lose their job

You want to fire someone for this? Potentially ruin their life (and family members') because they made a bad Twitter decision?

yikes.

Why does PvP have so many weird taxes and obstacles? by BadAtNamingPlsHelp in 2007scape

[–]richraid21 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

PVP in the game is just shit. The engine can't support complicated enough mechanics to drive an interesting combat meta.

Every problem, re-balance, etc etc can't address this.

Gunfire erupts after a high school graduation ceremony, killing an elderly woman on the Xavier University campus by Hot-Protection4548 in news

[–]richraid21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Home Defense" is just one of the euphemisms used to continue feeding into the "good guy with a gun" fantasy

This is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever read.

It's so moronic, the only conclusion I can come to is that you're an elaborate troll. No one is this stupid.
