The blindfold and cigarette are not for the benefit of the executed, they are for the executioner; and are therefore not optional.

If your 16 year old daughter wants to take an alcoholic 28 year old marine corporal to prom though, that's fine and good. Better get a chauffeur though he lost his driver's license like 3 DUIs back

I'm not sharing my opinions, I'm sharing the perspective of the culture I grew up in

Nah cable channels came after this law so they're exempt because they were considered a luxury good

I'm gonna show this post to my dealer for reference.

I don't know what you've been giving me but these are the kind of drugs I'm looking to be on.

Okay but Israelis calling themselves cacti is unintentionally hilarious, because cactus are not native to the old world, unless I am misremembering my botany

This is why if you want to abolish police you have to start with an even more extreme position of [redacted] police, but nobody in mayonnaise world has ever had to haggle over the price of anything so democrats fuck themselves over by moving their initial bargaining position to where they're meeting Republicans half-way. Every time. Every fucking time.

At this point even normal people are beginning to realize they're a deeply unserious organization.

Our government was designed, probably not intentionally but it is possible, to not work.

Currently it's not working so we can't do anything unless the president orders it, which isn't how shit is supposed to work but now has precedent.

American exceptionalism strikes again

Republicans (see, it's right there in the name) have been openly mocking people who think we live in a democracy for literally my entire life

I think we live in very different worlds. People absolutely lost their shit over Clinton's bans.

Legal interpretation doesn't always match up to what people see as their right and how aggressively they will enforce that right until the courts catch up to where they are. You're saying it happened with guns and we all just saw it happen with the religious extremists that run this country and abortion.

Unfortunately, this the correct way to view the legal system, as a means to an end that can be lobbied or bullied into getting what you want. Even more unfortunately, liberals view it as inviolable holy scripture handed down by God that must be honored regardless of whether you agree with it or not.

Life expectancy across the country is falling like a rock, very few of the root causes aren't incredibly bleak and/or unfixable issues but everyone thinks they understand how violent crime works.

I just tell myself being wrong is just the first step of learning, the only wrong move is giving up
