  1. I am wondering which will come first in America, the gun event horizon or the news event horizon. A warning from economics.

    Shoe event horizon

    The Shoe Event Horizon is an economic theory that draws a correlation between the level of economic (and emotional) depression of a society and the number of shoe shops the society has.

    The theory is summarized as such: as a society sinks into depression, the people of the society need to cheer themselves up by buying themselves gifts. This is usually done through the purchase of shoes. As more money is spent on shoes, more shoe shops are built, and the quality of the shoes begins to diminish. This makes people buy more shoes.

    The above turns into a vicious cycle, the end result being that other industries begin to falter.

    Eventually the titular Shoe Event Horizon is reached, where the only type of store economically viable to build is a shoe shop. At this point, society ceases to function, and the economy collapses, sending a world into ruin.

  2. Come on. It was not one of those large magazine weapons, and there were no innocent fatalities. Just another quiet day in hometown USA.

    You complain when there is "too much" coverage. You complain when there is "not enough" coverage. Is the porridge never just right?

    The porridge is never served in equal portions.

    Speaking of tag team partners, I think your like-to-post ratio with yours in this thread is almost exactly 1.

  5. That is because he is likable. We are both more likeable that you. hehe.

    Tackleberry has clearly never read the book "Equal is unfair".

    An AR-15 is absolutely a .22, paper trader. The .223 Remington it fires is one of many .22 centerfire cartridges. You're confused because you don't know the difference between rimfire (.22LR) and centerfire (.223).

    And maybe on top of that, you just don't like the guy because he's black.

    This is the problem with folks arguing for gun control. They speak with assumed knowledge that is complete bullshit and nothing more than repeated from other hive minds.

  10. We're just lucky that we have high school students to handle these issues for us. Apparently their whims carry more weight with legislators than those of people with a lifetime's experience actually dealing with firearms and criminals.
