    There is nothing that would have 100% guaranteed to stop this, other than simply executing the shooter prior t it happening for having a gun. Silly, yes. But, there not being a solution that is 100% effective is also not a reason to do nothing. You would never do anything. It is an incredibly childish response, usually followed by: see you can't think of anything reasonable that would have guaranteed to stop this. All you liberal gun-o-phobe are morons. Reducing or eliminating the stigma around mental health problems, combined with easier access to mental health professionals could very well have a positive effect on violent outbursts such as the one being discussed in this thread. It would definitely have a positive effect on society in general IMHO.
  2. SkyDekker
    Agreed fully. Your original comment sounded more along the lines of: there is no need for mental healthcare since you cannot force people to go anyways. Ending the stigma and making it much easier to obtain will go a long way. (No, that doesn't necessarily mean it would have prevented this shooting Anvil....that is such a silly argument to begin with. Very few things in life are 100% certain)

    The gun lobby fights very, very hard to stop most if not all development regarding safety. There is absolutely zero interest to incorporate any form of new technology to try and make guns safer.
  4. SkyDekker
    Exactly, no need for any healthcare, not like you can force people to use it. So what's the point?

    What do you suggest? Derek V Make guns illegal. Summary execution of anybody found to have a gun. If nothing else it would help with over-population.

    Wonder if you can bank a baquette in Paris....

    Typing lessons?

    What about the last 4 days? How do you figure that? UNless you can show it is not unusual for somebody to get dimissed in the last 4 days, this is evidence of exactly nothing. Your default stance is clearly that standards must have changed, though all "on record" reports are quite adament that they have not.

    Not if the US was like it used to be, but "if the world" was like it used to be. This is a reflection of how all economies have become incredibly intertwined. Apple stock is down tremendously. How would that have been any different if the US was what it used to be?

    Ah, you are one of those people whom will never believe that two women could have passed the course. The official annoucement indicated how many men were graduating as well.
  11. SkyDekker
    There was no announcement. He isn't/wasn't attending. The announcement that they were graduating, before completing the course. Who annoucend that? Do you have a link to the announcement?

    +1 Yup, people in Europe get shot at alarmingly higher rates than in the US....

    Because if the range wasn't Muslim free, there wouldn't be a bunch of yahoos standing outside of it "protecting" the range from evil muslims.

    Fucking right he's making me nervous. What if you're wrong about him fading away? Partisan politics aside, putting someone with that much of an ego, who is that much of an asshole in the oval office will be a disaster. I prefer to keep the big red 'kaboom' buttons out of the hands of egomaniacal lunatics. We limit those types of people to Mayoral positions only in Canada.

    Breeding animals specifically for research is not the same. But you knew that. If PP has their way, they would absolutely do that. What a load of crap. Seriously, how are people supposed to have normal dialogue in a country where people believe PP would purposely "breed" people, so they can abort them to sell parts. Are people honestly THAT retarded?

    Agreed, between Facebook and Google, these two companies greatly determine the information/news individuals get to see.

    Some interesting reading and research: http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/how-google-could-rig-the-2016-election-121548.html#.VdWEGXuPQ-8

    I really want someone to try and defend this. It will be hilarious. It'll be some shit about god forgiving those who have sinned and queers should still burn in hell and the data isn't verified and...... Ashley Madison wasn't (isn't?) only for straight people..... How do you know? My wife was on there looking for a lesbian lover according to: https://haveibeenpwned.com/ Interesting. I guess I always just thought it was full of straight married men browsing fake women's profiles. I'd bet a very very small percentage of users were gay, though. Maybe, but some of them are afraid this leak will lead to their death, considering they live in countries in which homosexuality is punishable by death.

    If it isn't a recovery and it isn't a recession, what is the defined economic term?

    I think that those that disdain Obama are baffled by him. I think we would all benefit with obstaining from Obama. Little disconcerting you have made sexual advances towards Obama.... http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Obstain

    So you are fine with a fair number of high profile candidates holding that position, just as long as it isn't all of them.
  25. SkyDekker
    Which is exactly what you are doing. You want to claim we are in a recession now, show the parameters of a recession and provide the data. Problem is, you can't. Making stuff up again I see Then post the parameters and corresponding evidence to indicate the recession and prove me wrong.
