I mean wtf do you want me to discuss, your straight A's in 6th grade?  Good for you!

It's jebus Howard christ actually. Howard be thy name.

I haven't smoked since the early 90's, but thanks for your concern. /s

My apologies for, again, attempting to converse with you. I should know better by now.

It's just frustrating because I don't know wtf he's talking about half of the time, and then he throws in his typical digs about hatred or racism or whatever.

I think the issue is if you wait until you have the perfect solution before doing anything, then nothing ever gets done.

True.  Paralysis of analysis.

When someone dismisses his own comments accusing poor blacks and democrats...yeah, it's totally on the person responding to those comments.

I tried to show you it's not quite painted with the brush you used with you paints.

I came from a poor environment, not democrat, not black. Still had shit opportunities for education. Doing nothing results in just that.

But you're never wrong, just confused by conflicting opinions.

Then you explode with anger.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

See, I don't know what you're really talking about, and I'm not going to waste the time trying to figure it out.

No, just expressing my frustration with your nonsense - big difference.

This one is unusual enough to make CNN this morning. It sounds like the 10 YO will live. Shot by his 19 YO babysitter who found a gun in the home and decided she needed selfies with it. Apparently she assumed it was not loaded. Because who leaves a loaded gun laying around a 10 YO's house?.

Or the continued dismissal of all efforts, like you seem to prefer, will serve the same result.

Doing nothing does exactly that.

Keep up the hatred, it does at least provide results.

Not any sort of positive ones though.

Thanks for successfully drawing me into wasting time and efforts again. Someday I'll learn as I always do.

 

Understanding debate and negotiation(of/for_______):

1. Never recognize a legitimate fact by the other party..

2. Make obtuse statements that only slightly touch on the facts at hand. They help mislead, distract and sidetrack real issues.

3. Make generalizations, false assumptions and misjudgements based on personal biases. But never come out and clearly state your real personal position or view of the issues.Because you don't really want to defend a core belief with substance that proves to be wrong.

4. Choose labels for everything with positions that reflect your personal biases.Ideally derogatory and deflective of real substance.

These points will help you understand trump, Fox News the NRA, etc.

I haven't been adding to this thread. But it's not because the children have stopped dying. Here's one just as a reminder.

We have a thread for mass shootings. At this time I have no words to describe my sadness at your decision to post this in this thread. I have no words to describe how I feel about your callousness that I can use here.

These are just some randomly chosen accidental shooting from the past couple weeks. There are many more and a ton of mere wounding that will affect the victims in varying degrees. The hits just keep on coming.

Well, they USED to be protective until Scalia caused them to be pretty much the same as everywhere else by way of the Heller decision.  Since then murders have gone UP in Chicago.

Fortunately it's mostly gang-bangers offing each other.

I can only find ONE accidental killing in the last three days......wow! Quite a few children wounded. God must have been merciful this week. Don't play with killing machines. 16 yo boy killed 16 yo girl.
