At least Warner Bros. is taking risks which is more than what you can say about Marvel.
Genuinely can't comprehend this argument. DC movies are only risks in the sense that they throw $300 million at a shit script and then go in and fuck them up further in post production.

The Flood / Re: The AR-15 mass shooting is becoming a meme

Ngl saw the news headline as "Naked man attacks Waffle House" and burst out laughing up until I read the details.

Even if he did have "just mental issues" and his guns were taken away from him before (though the BBC states they were handed to his father, and the AR-15 was one of those originally taken from him), why is that ok?

People with mental issues shouldn't have access to firearms until they can prove they're sane enough to use them, it shouldn't be the other way around, i.e. "give them guns and the ones who fuck up get them taken away".
I’m pretty sure these issues usually don’t develop until later in life. It appears that he had never actually been diagnosed with anything.

Iirc shit like schizophrenia isn't obvious until the 19-20 range, though that figure is a bit rusty.  Aren't guns sold to people at 18+ in the States or is that just wishful thinking?


If it isn't clarified that the guy stole his gun back from his Dad somehow, then he's also fucked in this scenario.
It depends on the area but generally at least 18. And I think I read that the dad just gave them back.

You’re not wrong but that doesn’t render fan criticism meaningless just because we’re going to see it anyway. The studio is clearly listening and changes their movies accordingly. If we had decided we were complacent with the Schumacher movies, we would have never gotten then Nolan trilogy, for instance.

I’m just going to say it, this movie looks bad. Everybody seems to be amped over it but the promotional material just makes it look super derivative and bland. Hope I’m wrong though, I’m mostly a big fan of this franchise and the Russo’s movies in particular.

BZK is objectively a different person from me that's why I didn't get banned
I guess I just don’t want to believe you spent weeks manipulating some random dude into thinking he was in a relationship with you and  making an account here in order to troll this website.

You should genuinely consider switching your sources for this kind of information. Almost everything in the OP is heavily speculative or straight up false. I would probably think this thread was satire if I didn't know any better.

4 died
He was a white conservative (he even tried to force a meeting with Trump)
The AR-15 in question was legally acquired

What isn’t factual? What is misleading?

That the AR-15 is the go-to for mass shootings?
We know that he trespassed on restricted White House property because he wanted to see the president. Anything beyond that is speculative. The stunt got his weapons and firearm identification taken away, so not really “legally acquired”.

This whole effort from both sides to characterize every mass shooter as their political opponents is pretty selfish. It’s as bad here as it is when I see people trying to say he’s a converted Muslim and registered Democrat with no basis. It seems like he had some type of schizophrenia, considering his paranoid delusisions.

Also semi automatic handguns still are used more than ARs when it comes to different shootings (although recent, devestating attacks have used an AR).

I think it’s the only exclusively-gaming channel I’m subscribed to. I agree his older videos were better but I still like hearing his opinions on things and the politics doesn’t bother me.

Happiness is understanding and exploiting the game of biology and Verbatim refuses to play. That's it.
We`re not talking about happiness, we`re talking about jobs. People usually take jobs because they need to survive, not because to be happy. Hobbies exist for happiness. Jobs exist for surviving. Thats it.

You'll be depressed your entire life if you don't enjoy your job.
You are saying this like job is the only thing that exist in world
Your career pretty much dominates your life of a day-to-day basis, so naturally if you choose to view it as “slavery” it’s going to impact your happiness. Not a very practical mindset.
And you are saying this like job takes majority of your career or all of it, while in reality it`s not exactly a true, expecially considering part-time jobs exist, distant jobs exist, basically jobs which doesn`t take all of your time and are enough for you to survive, pay bills or w/e exist
Part-time jobs, stay-at-home jobs, or even intermittent type work is still a significant amount of your life to choose to be miserable because of and this doesn’t undermine the point.

Serious / Trump Vows ‘Big Price’ for Syria Attack

Quote
President Trump on Sunday promised a “big price” to be paid for what he said was a chemical weapons attack that choked dozens of Syrians to death the day before, and a top White House official said the administration would not rule out a missile strike to retaliate against the government of President Bashar al-Assad.

In a tweet, Mr. Trump laid the blame for the attack partly on President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, the first time since his election that he has criticized the Russian leader by name on Twitter. Mr. Putin’s forces have been fighting for years to keep the Assad government in power amid Syria’s brutal civil war.

Please discuss and thank you.

It might be hard for channels to remain unbiased since YouTube started demonetizing political videos. It seems like videos about sjws getting “destroyed” usually reaches a wider audience and therefore produces more patreon support. Idk how often this is the case though.

There are private firms who would do this
They wouldn’t be able to identify them though would they?

If they’re tied to a database, yes. Same goes for the police
Oh damn do you just have to be a licensed investigator?

We also need to hold police actually accountable when they murder someone instead of giving them a paid vacation.
They literally do this so the officers can’t interfere with the investigation they’re conducting on them.

And why are they paid for it? They should be charged, not given a vacation.
Because then they’ll be getting punished for doing their job.
Getting punished how? The suspension alone is punishment, and definitely does not mean they should be paid especially after just infringing on the rights of others.
Getting punished by not getting paid? Also Americans don’t have any rights to not get shot if they’re directly endangering the lives of others.

Why should they get paid when they are not working? Police often times murder people unjustly as well.
Because unjust shootings happen far less often. To both your points.
