me: you don’t have to have absolute faith in the existence of god to be jewish and also “sin” isn’t really much of a thing cause there isn’t really a hell and also heaven isn’t important and it’s more about your deeds on earth

GOT MY BUMPER STICKERS

This is so incredibly ignorant that it’s making my head hurt. When people say, “Guns don’t kill people,” they are not saying, “A gun and bullets can’t be used to kill someone,” and you know it. A gun, by itself, cannot kill someone. It doesn’t matter what side of the the debate you’re on. A gun, by itself, cannot kill someone. The problem has always, always been people. If you put the blame on an inanimate object, you are saying that people don’t need to take responsibility for their actions.

I hate to repeat a tired cliche, but if you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns. Or people will find other ways of murdering each other. This shouldn’t even be a political argument, it’s not about our Second Amendment rights; it’s about being able to defend yourself. Let’s say gun control is fully instated, or it’s made illegal to own a gun. One day, you’re walking home, and someone with a gun pulls you into an alley, threatening your life for whatever it is they want. If you point at them and say, “Hey, having that gun is illegal!” do you think they’ll apologize profusely, turn themselves in, and allow you to go on your merry way?

However, if any average person on the street has a gun, do you think muggers and thieves (or even an ill-intentioned average Joe) are going to be more motivated to make a target of someone? Probably not, since there’s a high chance that target will be well armed (like Chicago vs. Houston, if you look at the first article below).

Here’s an article that might be of interest to you. Here’s another one, that provides a little more context.

I’m sorry to turn this into a rant, I don’t do this (very) often. Just read the first paragraph, that’s really all I meant to say.

Someone has completely missed the point.

Is that you, Steve Carlsburg?

BEST COMMENT

Oh yes, because owning a gun is your “duty as an american”, isn’t it?
United States, the greatest gun producer.
“Buy a pink rifle to your daughter, teach kids how guns are awesome and cool. Give guns TO CHILDREN.” But when they murder each other, blame video games or Marlin Manson. Not the whole gun propaganda nor the president sending more soldiers to kill muslims.

Buy a car, win a gun! Open a bank account in our bank and win a gun! Buy our guns! Guns are cool! Guns are awesome! Having a gun means power! Owning guns will solve crime!

Cut the bullcrap about your freaking guns I’m sick of USA and its freaking guns everywhere and you telling me that all this “gun is for protection we have to have it”.

Educate yourselves.

IT JUST KEEPS HAPPENING

It’s it’s a fact! Cities and states that allow a gun on a person are noticeably lower in murder. Having guns is about protection. No, we are not EVER going to give guns to children. We are not going to tell that that having guns are cool, like it’s a toy. We are going to tell them that it’s a dangerous weapon and can kill somebody, even you, if not handled correctly. We can teach them that they can be used for protection if they’re desperate enough. Wether our not they learn how to use it is the parents choice, not yours. I learned how to use a gun by the time I was 11, and I turned out fine. Tons of other people I know also learned how to use a gun at a young age, but they are crazy maniacs. They are normal people that would only use a gun if needed.

Get this through your thick skull:

GUNS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM. PEOPLE ARE THE PROBLEM.

I AM LAUGHING SO HARD 

I CANT BREATHE. ITS TOO GREAT.

I SAW THIS POST 20 MINUTES AGO AND IT WAS ONLY HALF AS LONG AS IT IS NOW HOLY CRAP

i did some research and got to the root of the misunderstanding about the strike dates

it looks like, originally, the spanish workers were going to strike from July 10th-12th due to the working conditions at the san fernando warehouse – which is a MAJOR location for amazon spain where millions of packages are handled. but after making some progress with negotiations with amazon they called off the strike and held more meetings ahead of prime day, keeping a possible strike on prime day on the table if amazon didn’t cooperate

AT THIS POINT THE PRIME DAY STRIKE IS ON, from July 16-18, according to their official twitter.

just to be clear; the misinformation about the dates wasn’t due to random claims pulled out of nowhere – at one point this was the ACTUAL time of the strike, it just changed in the course of negotiations

so again – don’t bite people’s head’s off for wrong information during unfolding current events. those details were true at one time. then changed. it’s in the spanish news. probably not in american news bc amazon owns everything here and bc america tends to ignore shit happening in europe. i used google translate to read spanish articles on the topic there’s a lot out there if you use key terms like “amazon

huelga

Avoid Sudden Stops 2.0 via Shitty_Car_Mods

The fuzzy dice. The knife. The fire extinguisher on the floor. The spider.

This is Quality Aesthetic.

What’s in the ammo box? And what do those dials indicate?

All I know is that car can’t be from Mass. The Masshole horn reflex is too strong.

Oh my god I didn’t notice the first time but the floor is fucking wooden planks. And the side mirror is mounted on a skeleton hand. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a vehicle with this much raw aesthetic.

Also, never fear, there is a seat belt.

This is PEAK Mad Max Wasteland right here

THIS CAR RIDES ETERNAL SHINY AND CHROME!
