But to actually go on the topic, are we sure supremacy is firing turbos? Even if they aren't, none of the *normal* turbolasers even attempted to engage the rebel fleet at any point, which suggests that the guns we saw were the longest ranged weapons in the whole fleet, so it's safe to say it sets a...

Difference being that apart from nuclear deterrence, Canada cannot in any way hope to defend itself from the likes of the USA, China or Russia. We could spend 10x the amount we do right now on the military and it wouldn't matter. Is there a point to spending money to prepare for a Potential conflic...

Well no, its not the America had decided the situation is fine. If you people didn't think it was fine, you'd do something about it. You haven't done so, and continually refuse to do so, so what we're left with is that you do. The rest of the developed world has shown the problem can in fact be dea...

You know, I do have to point out that Sanders is the only remaining candidate for either major party who is neither under FBI investigation nor being sued for fraud. ;) Well there's that little F.E.C investigation, and then there's that fraud investigation into his wife's university which may inclu...

I suspect that if the iconic star destroyer had been introduced in this way and with this (rather smoothed-out) art style, we'd be saying the same thing about it. There's no greebles, no texturing. And we see the ship alone in space, so there isn't the sense we get in the movies of the ship being t...

Well yes, but then no Imperial ship really looks anything other than big, nasty, and brutalist. And the art style isn't doing them any favors either. It makes the ship look if anything more squared-off and blocky than it would in a model for a movie. It doesn't look big, nasty or brutal though. It ...

2. Bernie needs to stay in. Indictment or not (She will be charged the only question is WHEN) but the instant Bernie Sanders gets out Secretary Clinton will begin SPRINTING to the right thinking this will set her up for the general election. Horseshit. She's not getting indicted for anything, and s...

Fuck me I'm so fucking sick and tired of this libellous BernieBro horseshit. You're all getting played by a Republican social media campaign and you're lapping it the fuck up. Citation needed. I mean, I'm hardly what one would consider to be a Bernie Sanders supporter, and I find a good conspiracy ...

#3 is the most absolute likely outcome. The Democrats are even more of a big tent coalition than the Republicans are. For all the talk of this election revealing the major, widening fault-lines of the Republican party, this election has shown that a similar phenomenon exists within the Democratic p...

I wonder why the huge difference in articles. The former seems to make it seem one sided with the KKK being the aggressors while the latter implies both sides got in some licks. The articles aren't contradictory. In both, the KKK stabs three people while CNN simply refrains from mentioning who star...

Yes, but those rating codes don't cover things like a news broadcast that shows a graphic news story. Nor does a show about surgery have to open with a graphic content notice, it could merely flash the rating code with no specific warning and be fine. This is not the graphic content warning that yo...

Outside of the currently required rating codes (TV-Y, TV-Y7, etc. and G, PG, PG-13, etc. as well as the riders D, L, S, V, etc.) I'm unaware of any America legal requirement to flag graphic content. It's likely smart to do so, but I doubt it is required. 'Outside of the required rating codes, there...

This is entirely different than causing said trauma in the first place. Institutions are individuals have a responsibility not to create trauma in others and can face legal consequences for doing so. They do not, to the best of my knowledge, have a legal responsibility to avoid triggering ongoing i...

That's the medical side of things and has nothing to do with a person or institution inflaming pre-existing mental trauma. TIL Mental healthcare has nothing to do with not inflaming pre-existing mental trauma. Wait, no that's fucking stupid. This is entirely different than causing said trauma in th...

When did somebody's mental issue become somebody else's problem? Since....fucking forever?

Fair warning, this attitude will probably get you broken teeth.

'Fuck' 'Shit' 'Cunt' 'Asshole' 'Motherfucker' These are all fairly mundane words that nevertheless are likely to provoke a strong negative emotional reaction from a lot of people. Surprisingly we don't consider these people unfit for participation in society. Speak for yourself. With "cunt&quo...

What exactly is Hillary's appeal with minority voters? Mostly, it comes down to her being a well-known Democrat. She's also able to speak with conviction, even when she doesn't believe a damn thing coming out of her mouth. A trait I wish weren't so common to politicians. Is that really it though? B...

In fairness, I'm pretty sure you could find a large minority or even majority of people in many previous generations with similar attitudes. They put the question to the other generations too, and the Millennials by far had the largest number who were in favor of this. Interestingly at the opposite...

Scratch that, apparently at least one person is dead.

My guess is that is was Bundy or one of his supporters who shot first.

Apparently some dude named Ryan Payne took a few rounds.
