another shooting, this time 14 kids dead more wounded and a teacher dead.
i am all for the second amendment and this does not change my mind.
but i do hate this kind of thing, makes my stomach turn.
@shadowclone - I think it depends on whether they reference the massacre like Obama did.
But I think it might be better to wait until the hysteria dies down before we can have a difficult discussion about gun rights.
Look at the madness of liberal idiots politicising George Floyd's death as he lay dying. That was pretty f**king sick from the hard Left.

I literally cannot believe what an asshole Barak Obama is - it was the timing of his comment that pissed me off.
Wait a year, then if he wants to compare killings with black people killed by racists, then ok, we can have that discussion. It would be controversial, but we could have that discussion.
But Obama made his comments when the kids' bodies were still warm.
Disgusting.
i saw a post pop up on some click bait where serena williams saying she was praying for armageddon to come and that the jws have said we are living in critical times hard to deal with.this was her response to the texas school shooting.

If more sisters were like this, I might have stayed.
here in the uk we've recently had the price cap on household energy bills raised by around £800 and there'll be another similar raise this autumn.. food prices are up, petrol is around £1.82 per litre - that's $10.37 per gallon for our american friends - and inflation is currently running at 9%.
business are being hit as ordinary folk prioritise their spending.
young folks are effectively priced out of the housing market and wage rises are not keeping pace.. mrs nic' and i are fortunate in that we're both in secure employment and with the kids moved out and mortgage paid off our outgoings are thankfully low.
@Punk - I find it tempting not to vote at the next general election.
But what I'll probably do is vote for an independent candidate.
There's no way I'll vote for Labour or the Conservatives. Mainstream politics is a complete joke at the moment.
I could count on one hand the number of MPs from those two parties whom I respect.
So I'll use my vote to vote for someone else. It probably won't make much of an impact, but there you go ...

I loathe the people in charge. All utter filth of the lowest order - it would help if the people in charge were competent and decent. I can take orders from competent, decent people, but not from incompetent idiots.
Whitty and Vallance are a disgrace to Science.
Their views re Covid and lockdown are not part of a scientific consensus, believe me ...

The cost of living crisis isn't really affecting me.
I was poor before it started and I'm still poor now.
But it's what happens when a government pisses away public money like the proverbial sailor on shore leave.
This tory government under Boris Johnson has turned away from the usual tory small-government, sensible attitude to public spending.
It has spent billions on furlough plus lockdowns, test & trace, PPE, and everything else.
I'm not a tory but I am fiscally conservative. I want sensible spending from a small government. And this current government has failed me.
I voted tory last time round in 2019 because the tories were the only mainstream party who respected the brexit vote and promised to 'get brexit done'.
But I won't be voting for them in 2024. They are a proper shit shower, lol ...

Interesting that Lloyd went to the Ukrainian border to pick up refugees.
Let's hope he goes to Mariupol or Donbas next, lol ...

A person cheating on his wife with sex workers is bad. You don't have to be religious to see this. Atheists can clearly see this.
Lloyd's defenders are delusional in this instance.
And, as has already been said, using prostitutes is illegal.

Here's one thing I've noticed about Lloyd's confession video (later deleted):
Lloydy boy has completely misjudged ExJWs and atheists.
He maybe kinda thought, 'if you leave the WT cult you can do anything you want - cheat on your wife with prostitutes, anything!'
Er, no, Lloyd, just because people leave the WTS they still have morals, concepts of decent vs unacceptable behaviour. Ditto atheists - they don't believe God exists but they still have morals, too.
And cheating on your wife with prostitutes (some of whom may be forced into sex work or are under age) is totally incompatible with being an activist who criticises the Watchtower's child abuse policies.
Lloyd's dramatic loss of patreons is evidence for the fact that he's completely misjudged how ex-JWs/atheists feel and think.
It's hilarious watching him in a hole of his own making, digging down further and further.
