I guess we need to ban cars and trucks as these steel wrecking balls seems to kill more with on full tank of fuel. We need more background checks as it seems anyone is able to buy one, two or more. It's easy to buy one off the street as no license is needed to buy one. These things are a menace to society and is not protected under any amendments.

There really needs to be more separating the street from the sidewalk than a curb in cities. [spoiler]That being said I doubt this will substantially change anything in my life, in fact I will probably forget it in a week or 2. Sorry to whoever that may offend but I just don't see it making a large imprint on me[/spoiler]

9 RepliesThey seem to be more worried by the global Neo-N-A-Z-I threat. You know, that massive alt-right army that has been sacking cities, filling mass graves with bodies, blowing themselves up at weddings, killing women and children, etc. Oh, wait.....that's Muslims. Never mind.

[quote]...in Barcelona terror attack, and not a peep here (that I've seen), since it happened approximately 4 hours ago.[/quote] Aside from my sarcastic comment that stirred the pot: [b][u]This is a terrible tragedy. One that shouldn't have ever happened. I've been to La Rambla, it's a packed market practically- and the street is full to the brim with people. Terrorism will exist as long as WE let it happen. We need to take steps to ensure our people are vetted correctly- exposed to our cultures- and we need to ask them if they're ok with it. If they aren't ok with the culture- I'm sorry- don't live there. [/u][/b] [b]It not only benefits them that they won't be tortured by feeling like an extreme outsider- it'll help us as well.[/b] [b][u]Here is what you can do to stop it all[/u][/b] 1) Vote for the right people! 2) Volunteer for programs like Save the Children or the Peace Corps 3) Fund the right candidates. 4) Get well informed and educated!

Coverage is pretty steady up here now. Hope the asshole who did it gets caught soon. Dead or alive.

It feels like we have come to the point when the gov don't even care anymore.

We already had a post about this. And there are over a 100 injured.

15 RepliesI wonder if we're going to see a shift in how cities operate, and if we'll see more bollards installed to separate footpaths from streets.

Oh yeah, Bungie.net/Offtopic is the first place I look when something tragic happens 😒 (Sarcasm, in case didn't notice)

Thus they deserve to die according to the logic of the white supremacists and those who say that the counter protesters in Charlottesville deserved to be ran over for being on the road. So it's not a terrorist attack according to conservative logic- it's normal. [spoiler][quote]"Oh hey, someone carebeared by the lefties did something bad but let me change the subject and talk about how bad you guys are"[/quote] It is a tragedy what happened to that woman that died by the hand of a [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url]- it is also a tragedy what happened in Barcelona. Why is it ok for those people on the alt right to say "Those counter protesters deserved to die- they were on a road," ? It's not ok. But using that logic in that quoted comment I've heard and seen all over "Patriotic" pages- I applied it to Barcelona. And I got the exact response I wanted- people got mad at me. It's like seeing what I saw in the comments of people who were actually sincere about their "Heather deserved to die because she blocked the road-" Comments. [/spoiler]

Not a peep here but I did read it. American double standards will be in full swing tonight and tomorrow if all we see is a lefty righty shit show. Of course I couldn't help but think but what if this is a clever ploy by to distract everyone from what happened charlottes ville. Tin foil confirmed

7 RepliesYeah, I heard it earlier today. Didn't care to make a thread because.. It happens so often. What can we say? We're always repeating ourselves. It's either "Oh, they should do this or that!", some dark jokes and how terrible the government, society, Trump and everything else is at the moment. Same shit all the damn time.
