  • The interesting thing is that no charges are being filed against the dump truck driver. Apparently, running him over was considered self defense.

    • Sounds fair ... having drawn a gun upon you can be interpreted as being threatened with deadly force, giving you the right to respond in kind, even if you don't do it with another gun

      • I think we should ban all guns and go back to using swords.

        It's the only way that light sabers make any sense.

        • Kid did get one thing right. Fake "news" really is a problem in America but the vast majority of the fake news and completely misinformed people are mostly, though not exclusively (just overwelmingly), on the right. They exist in a fact free propaganda world which leaves them unable to correctly answer just about any objectively, provably, factually true questions.

          These people don't understand that Mueller has already racked up five guilty pleas and 17 grand jury indictments with around 52 felony charges. These poor, right wing, willful idiots still don't know real actual crimes were committed by Trump and many, many people around him. They falsely believe, falsely, that "crooked Hillary" some how did something (which they are always completely unable to name) wrong or illegal despite frantic Republican propaganda efforts for most of a decade, over 52 partisan investigations which found exactly zero crimes.

          So fake news based upon partisan propaganda and misinformation is a major problem but it exists almost entirely on the right. The U.S. desperately needs a return to the fairness doctrine so that propaganda hucksters are removed from the airwaves and fact based news is legally required. Even then it will take decades for the brain damaged idiots like Kid to finally fad away drooling on their Apple sauce but we can at least make sure facts and objective truths are the rule for everyone who broadcasts using public air waves. We used to do this and the country was far better informed and knowledgeable.

          • That's 'cause of Truthiness. If something feels like it should be true(i.e. investigations have found nothing. no collusion, witch hunt, hillary is a lizard-beast trying to destroy america*, ect) then it is true.

                              Why should I restrict the question to Wal-Mart, considering the fact that he could buy his guns at numerous places in the USA?
