Not 'a gun' - two semi-automatic rifles with laser sight and three days apart. Except it's not impossible, right? I mean, there are many people across the country whose entire careers are based on trying to predict human behavior. It's not 100%, it's not definite, but a lot of strong and reliable predictions can be made and a lot of crimes get prevented due to that every day. What is driving you to minimize this?

I think the selling of the weapons legally to an 18 year old is the state's fault. If you saw the press conference though, how he spoke about Abbott and about the situation, I think it's pretty obvious that he votes in lockstep with the state allowing those gun sales. So he doesn't get to say 'hey, it's not my fault' when it's the approach he supports. I also think the sheriff indicating there was absolutely no sign that anything was about to happen when an 18 year old buys some $3500 worth of semi-automatic weapons within three days with ammunition and a laser sight is absolutely on him. He may feel the need to say 'no one could see this coming' so that he can sleep better at night, but the signs were obviously there. To deny that from a law enforcement officer, is utter bullshit and ass-covering.

Sheriff at press conference: "On March 17th, Ramos purchased a semi-automatic rifle at a local sporting goods store. On March 18th, he purchased 375 rounds of ammunition for that rifle. On March 20th, he purchased another semi-automatic rifle at that same local store." and then: "We have YET to find a clue, whether it's social media or other indicators, that might have given us ANY TYPE OF IDEA that he was about to do something like this..." An 18-year-old buying a semi-automatic weapon in the first place should be a flag, but then he buys a SECOND one from the SAME store just three days later, and sheriff head-in-the-sand has to throw out there that no one had ANY TYPE OF IDEA that he was about to do something?! Then pats himself on the back that it was only 19 children that were killed. Hey, sheriff,

A small request for the Dems to lessen the damage of the horrible policies and beliefs of the repubs? But no request for the repubs to be less evil? You do get that that’s putting the blame in the wrong place, yeah?

Democrats being at fault for not being coalesced enough to overcome the truly repugnant republican policies and viewpoints is a very hot take. "Hey, our Repub policies may suck in every possible way, but it's the Dems' fault because they can't stop us from enacting our bullshit!" How about the repubs stop having such shitty America-destroying policies??

How about today, Abbott? Embarrassed about anything different today, you jackass?- The Donald Trump Jr. thread
Ironically, the first photographer also used a pile of grain, oil, and pastries to lure Don jr onto that tree stump for the 2017 photo. He looked sad because he had finished eating it all already.- Beefcake Cawthorn is a proselytizing jackass who needs his own thread

Now I have sympathy for his ex-wife. Probably thought she landed a pretty hot piece as long as he didn't talk, but then wedding night came along and he was all like, "Hey babe, wanna retire to the boudoir??" And then here he comes on over a'hoppin and a'humpin'...- Battlebots 2022
Same with the Tantrum/Hydra battle. Tantrum driving in a circle around Hydra and avoiding contact is aggression?? When they weren't doing the avoiding routine, Hydra was throwing them all over the place. Battlebots has been pushing Witch Doctor through the whole event this year. They got a 24-seed for beating that 0-3 disaster of an entry for Duck this year, losing by KO to End Game, and then beating 0-2 Rusty and pretending that that was some sort of achievement. Then, when Witch Doctor's first-round 9-seed opponent in the tourney couldn't get their bot to work (3-0 Glitch), Battlebots replaced them with 1-2 Mammoth?? So all of the bots that Witch Doctor beat going into the round of 16 went a combined 1-7. Finally, some thoughts for next season. 1) They need to dump the little useless platform that they added this year - what's the point of it? The main effect of it was just to ruin the flow of several matches. 2) They need to cut Faruq's announcing bits to the shortest time possible - he's tolerable when it's just a couple of lines, but when it's a whole soliloquy it was a FFWD for me every time. 3) They need to get rid of the saws in the floor - when they pop up, they don't affect any of the matches, and when they aren't popped up, bot after bot gets tripped up or downright stuck in the holes. And 4) They need to fix the freaking floor - there are so many divots in that thing that any low bot would repeatedly get tripped up just trying to drive around the floor this season. A bot would be coming in for an attack and then get stuck and have to back up to try again - what an excitement killer.- Beefcake Cawthorn is a proselytizing jackass who needs his own thread

The beginnings of a 50-car pileup in Pennsylvania due to a snow squall on Monday. Spoilered because 3 people died somewhere in the whole thing before it ended, and because of the jackass commentator, but that's a damn lucky survivor at 0:41.- Ok, we need an Oscar thread after that Will Smith/Chris Rock moment
