Idk

IMO the correct response would have been to return Hawaii to the Hawaiians and to sink the rest of our naval hardware.

IDK. Pretty sure the Hawaiians are pretty happy being a US state, if not for cash influx alone.

And Spam.

If Frown had lived in WWII, the only thing that would have affected him would have been if Beefheart had been playing a gig at Pearl Harbor and got killed. Then he would have taken on the Japs single-handed! :laughing:

Last I checked Hawaii wasn't a state when Japan bombed it.

I'm not even gonna read about the latest school shootings or try to de-bunk them. Kids are fucked up because the nuclear family unit is being destroyed and they are being poisoned with sodium fluoride in their tap water and mercury [among other harmful adjuvants] in their vaccines. We need to stop being REACTIONARY and look at the ROOT of the problems. Our current wage labor system is fucked up. Jobs that people used to perform have become automated. The industrial revolution was supposed to give people more free time, but if they have no money, they are fucked. A universal basic income is a GREAT idea. It fills the gap that automated jobs have created.

It definitely was after they bombed it.

McCain went into a country with the express purpose of bombing pre-selected military targets and was surprised when they didn't like that.

^ Fixed the first part of that sentence for you. I'm curious to know what evidence there might be to support the second part.

All I did today was go out for tacos and I could barely make it back to my car in the humidity. I don’t know if I can do it again without stroking out. And my boss doesn’t want me stroking out. It’s hard to fake not almost stroking out. Still better than teaching. At least it doesn’t make me want to kill anyone besides myself.

^ Well, that's very worrying news OccultHawk. You should have a medical check up asap.

I hate Alex Jones. He is a zionist puppet. A controlled opposition gate keeper. Don't compare me to him.

France banned guns and a man just fired an AK-47 into a crowd. Gun laws don't work.

The parents need to lock their guns up and spend some time with their fucking children.

If parents spent more quality time with their kids, the number of mass shootings would go down. PERIOD.

Did he kill anybody?

You're right. Unjustifiably elevated levels of respect = fetishize

Everyone deserves respect.

Lulz looks like they've got to you mate. There's actually never been a mass shooting in America. I would have expected you to know that.
