I fucking live here. Crime is extremely low where he is. The whole thing was a show from the beginning. "Democrat cities have crime and chaos, so i cleaned them up" is a talking point that he's spending hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on, just to make himself feel special.

Huh, can't say I've ever seen that word before. TIL

We're still doing secondary GPUs? What do you use it for? I haven't done SLI since my GTX660Ti's.

Allowing a kid to use tools that were designed to actively kill things is not healthy, no matter the household.

My friend, hunting is a thing. Some people hunt for their food, so "no matter the household" is just hyperbole. Also, instructing children on the proper use of and the danger of weapons is how you reduce accidental gun death by children in a home with weapons.

Do we also allow kids to use grenades? Drive trucks on public roads? Why not buy sex toys from a sex shop?

That's just reactionary drivel. You can do better.

kowtow or half the campus gets defunded is a hell of a drug.

It was never about the act. That's protected. The content, however... that's sedition.

That's... literally the point of "right to work" states. "Right to work" is a set of union busting laws. But by the time they started, unions had already lost the voting power they previously had. Jimmy Hoffa worked really hard to get this shit going, and all it took was a couple decades of success for union members to be like, "idk maybe that extra $2.00 an hour to leave the union is worth it" and here we are. People suck.

Honestly from the reviews I've seen I don't think I'd ever expect end game. More "you win... here's the credits" and now I realize it's been a long time since I've played a game that did that.

The question is how does a 13 year old child have access to 23 guns. At least in the article it makes it sound like they were his. Obviously he shouldn't have access to any*, but the number does bring to focus just how fucked that household is.

*in a healthy household, teaching a child of that age to fire a .22LR long gun at the range is not uncommon or unreasonable. It's traditional. I learned to fire them in summer camp I think at 10 or 11 (granted it was like 1980 or so.)
