Funny how people justify gun ownership due to the concerns of an overbearing government yet support a government that tortures and murders its own citizens.
Well isn't it funny how people want "smaller government" yet want gay marriage and marijuana to be illegal. Do they not see the irony?
That's another common mentality here that is just wrong. Death penalty should be abolished.
Re: guns...it's funny how gun lovers like to act all tough when in fact they are a bunch of *******. They're not capable of defending themselves like true men. Then again, that shouldn't be a surprise since white, gun loving, Republican males tend to be the most insecure people out there.
Absolutely 100% agree with this. People that own lots of guns probably can't fight with their hands or defend themselves like real men, so they get guns to feel more manly and tough. They think having guns makes them real men.
Me too. Lets just say I've been "profiled" a fair amount of times.
I got positively profiled by the police once. In a NYC subway station, the fare reader ate my fare (fare taken, but the turnstiles didn't turn). There was a transit? cop standing near the entrance and I went and told him that it took my fare. He believed me. He pointed me to the emergency / handicapped entrance; but that's technically turnstile jumping and a big ticket.
Maybe he is a serial killer & is going round bumping off City Data posters, then posts in the "disappeared posters" thread for some bizarre & sick thrill?

They do that all the time if the machine eats your fare, or if the Metrocard readers are broken, etc
Some of my coworkers own guns. One went out and bought a gun because of his fear of ISIS (seriously). From what I've heard it sounds fairly easy to get one, I doubt many gun owners can shoot effectively.

Idk, who says that cops wouldn't have done the same for anyone else? Maybe has more to do with how to appears, conduct yourself, etc., than race. Don't know what your race is anyway.
