The Political Thread

[Chris]

But in other news two children were just shot in Colorado too

 

[Chris]

The one I always wonder about is would I have cheered Hitler's death. Probably but idk bc I was raised to be cheering for Bin Laden's too

 

[Professor Booty]

yeah gun control is desperately needed for sure and people will be focused on Kirk and not the kids…it’s gross

 

[Professor Booty]

I can’t say that I wasn’t cool with it when murders get killed because it seems like such a definitive line was crossed. Maybe I’m a hypocrite…could be I don’t know but that video footage shook me that I do know

 

[Chris]

It's usually just the all or nothing claims that irk me, having nuance for each situation is fairly healthy. And I genuinely don't really know my own thoughts either, so I would just never say something like celebrating death is never okay despite not really having an example I agree with that I've experienced. I'm sure I have some line there too. We gotta stop dealing in these absolutes that manufacturer fake sides to be on. Are you a death celebrator or not is fun labeling

I've never been able to come up with an argument against "if murder is so wrong, why do we do it to people that we deem need it and call it moral"

I certainly celebrated when OJ Simpson died, as most of you witnessed.

I'm also not gonna moralize on people about it, I'll offer people that suffer the consequences of their actions zero thoughts and zero prayers.

 

[Chris]

Not to be semantic but you're technically offering them bad thoughts just not positive ones lol

Well shit you got me there

 

[Kairi HoHo]

The Video of Kirk getting shot made me want to throw the way the blood was flowing. We know the guy and his antics but I worry about his kids and family and hope he does pull through but I don't know after seeing that clip if that will happen.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Trump just announced he died.

Rip bozo

 

[Roy Mustang]

I watched the video, I'm going to be real guys. He is a goner

Edit: Posted that at the same time as Barry

 

[Stadhart]

That close up video is BAD...not surprised he's dead

The fact the shooter got away and they arrested some old bloke makes the whole thing seem suspect

Russia or Iran will probably be blamed and it was probably a certain other nation as a false flag...anyway I'm not really into US politics and tbh I don't really know much about the bloke other than what I've seen tonight

 

[Barry Poppins]

Nah, Democrats and leftists will be blamed and Trump will try to ramp up more anti-democratic measures to kill, deport, and destroy his dissidents.

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

The fact that this happened in fucking Utah is hilarious
