Ahhh, my favorite subversive Ruskie. As you are clearly unfamiliar in the American Constituion and its amendments, you would not know that the there are limits. You are not allowed to yell "Fire" in a crowded theater. Free speech does not extend to telling an accomplice to murder someone. So, am I ok with banning certain weapons outside of a well regulated militia? Yes. If someone is a clear and present danger, is there an overwhelming public good to prevent immanent disaster? I am ok with it. But let's have some common sense **** here gentlemen. Or, maybe, or, if he is clearly an imminent risk, we, oh I don't know MAKE IT HARDER FOR HIM TO GET AN AR-15 And again, his lack of an extended magazine saved lives. So how are we even debating this part? Oh, right, you didn't because you have no leg to stand on.

WOW. Way to sidestep the issue. You 2nd amendment wonks love the "right to bear arms" part while ignoring the "well regulated militia" part. Let's compromise and say "You want these guns? You have to sign up for proper regulation and training, solely for the purpose of functioning in your militia unit" There, constitutional problem solved. Or do you just want to be a man baby?

Libcuck? Nice. Did you type that out while vaping and oiling your neckbeard? Except here's the part you are glossing over: a big reason that the government failed to save lives, is that with laws as written law enforcement had no ability to permanently take them away: https://www.npr.org/2018/04/23/605044996/why-the-waffle-house-shooting-suspect-had-access-to-guns-after-his-were-seized I think there's a reasonable debate to be had whether citizens should have some form of compulsory military training to act as a militia in case of invasion, but there's a lot of untrained people out there with guns and none of the training to use them safely. Assuming that everybody packing in that Waffle House would have made things safer is crazy. I have BEEN to my share of Waffle Houses, and no one makes good decisions in them.

Oh look, a person who had his guns taken away multiple times for clear instability, but kept having them returned to him because there was no legal recourse to prevent him from reclaiming them. And oh look, he was stopped by an unarmed black man, who had the chance to wrestle it away because the shooter didn't have an expanded magazine. Clearly, we're going to see this man called a hero by the president and the evident value of limited magazine size should be screamed from the rooftops!

Bills' 2018 Regular Season Schedule
WhitewalkerInPhilly replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You know, I can't complain too much. Yeah, the opening of the schedule is rough. 3 away games against 4 pretty good teams is not a great recipe. However, if we are starting a rookie, I would rather that we push through some of the harder games first so that he has the chance to gel by midseason and we can make a push. In the meanwhile, I don't think that we have another 3 week straight road trip, and I don't think we play anyone off a bye week. -
Jesus WEO... I think it's only fair to fine the QB if you are going to fine the defender, because I'm sick of the defenders getting constant blame. Come on, if a QB throws the ball low, and the WR dives for it, and the DB can't adjust in time, it is ludicrous to think that the DB should share all the blame. And yet, they routinely do.

Peterman Works w/ Tom House, Adds Velocity
WhitewalkerInPhilly replied to Thurman#1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He started more than one, and he stepped into a bunch. I know that isn't a huge space, and QBs often take a next step in the next year, but he has shown less than EJ, and people here wanted that man's head on a pike. -

Excellent, now he will be able to throw it into the hands of a defender even faster. -
Honestly, does anyone actually miss the Jills?
WhitewalkerInPhilly replied to JPL7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I've been living out of state for close to five years now. I kind of liked seeing them, but it's not as if I was going to events to get a look. The only time I would see any of them was when they could cut to the sidelines coming out of commercials. They are not vital to my enjoyment of the team. If not having them means we avoid more scandals, it's ok by me. -
Mike Rowe's Pledge---Watcha Think?
WhitewalkerInPhilly replied to 3rdnlng's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You know what...let's frame this. I mean, hell, I personnally don't like her. I think that she is a shill who says what she thinks her consistuents want to hear. And a lot of people think the same way... Now, quick mental exercise: link her to the premise of this thread. I dare you. i !@#$ing dare you. You mean, the part where I provided a counterpoint and you stuffed your fingers in your ears and stamped your feet? Oh my god... Someone understand context. Greater understanding. Self reflection. I see an evaluation of societal norms, and how they can come into conflict with each other. *grabs LA Grant* WHAT YEAR IS IT??!? -

Excellent deflection. Let's ignore how your own point was eviscerated and go "Let's poke Hillary lol" Pardon me, I think you need to start a crying fit because your WiFi was broken. It's just not fair that those lazy millenials don't want to get paid in exposure. What, you want to get PAID for your work. Waaaaaaah Waaaaaaaah -
Mike Rowe's Pledge---Watcha Think?
WhitewalkerInPhilly replied to 3rdnlng's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Hey, I am willing to cede that he might have that knowledge. He might have the knowhow about it, gained from his experience and reinforced through the journalism that he performed. But I hearing a lot of "this is how, definitively, you should live your lives, people who come from personal backgrounds that are nothing like mine. But come on, your circumstances of your birth have no effect on how you get ahead in life...by the way, let's talk about this Fatherlessness Epidemic, and how much that effects how far you get ahead in life" (Source: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/28/mike-rowe-us-facing-epidemic-fatherlessness/) ... So, let me get this straight: he has never had to work a dirty job, but that's ok because the previous generations of his family had to? And besides, he started at *gasp* community college before transferring to a better school for communications degree. He has truly suffered. Dude, I'm not saying that he hasn't worked hard in his field, but that is the very definition of starting off with advantages that a lot of the people that he is purportedly advocating for never had. He has done a lot to maximize what he had, and kudos, but it is ridiculous to say that he wasn't better off than a lot of people who never get that choice. -

I'm...not sure what your point is. Honestly. I mean, it's pretty much what I said...
