Ex-Jehovah's Witness Recovering Group 3 and This Site
by dubstepped ini don't remember seeing it ever really talked about here but the facebook group with the namesake of this post shut down at the end of march.
it was archived and they weren't clear as to when or if they would come back.
it seemed to come out of nowhere, and i know a lot of people were disappointed.

Film Franchises
by LoveUniHateExams inso, i'm quite into films, and horror is my favourite genre.. i don't own many franchises in full or almost in full.. but when i first started collecting dvds, i did tend to buy every film in a particular franchise if i enjoyed the first film or two.. i bought alien (1979) and aliens (1986) second-hand for 99 pence each (less than a dollar each!
) and they're fantastic.. so, i went back to the second-hand shop and bought alien 3 (1992), alien resurrection (1997) and prometheus (2012) ... erm, yes.
alien 3 (theatrical cut) was pretty good; resurrection was so bad it's funny and despite the gorgeous shots and good acting by michael fassbender, prometheus wasn't my thing.

Loved the original sw, empire was worthy if flawed (just how long was luke on dagoba??), the others i have no love for. Jedi ruined one of the greatest movie villains of all time, the prequals (aside from a few scenes) were bland and uninspiring. The empire was defeated by ewoks. Rouge one was good but again wasnt “new” so much as simply taking the one successful theme (the death star) and expanding on it.
loved the original alien, and aliens, while a different genre, was also well done and a good movie... went deeply down hill from there.
There is a franchise not mentioned that i can recomended in its entirety: the men in black franchise. All three movies were well done. Good mix of action, a certain self aware humor, good interaction between tommy lee jones and will smith, the plots were coherent and well excecuted... and all three held up.
Just one mans opinion, your results may vary.

A true American patriarch would say ..........
" I would sacrifice my child's life for the freedom for all citizens of this country to own a gun "Hmmm... can you actually find someone who said that..? Im thinking you just made that up because you think it sounded good. You wouldnt just make a quote up would you? You have some source to attribute that too, right?
The Republican party (the right) is heavily supported by the NRA.
so stupid as to not even need to be responded too. But false. Even the left realized how comparatively little the nra gives and backed off that position. Perhaps you didnt get the memo.
Also, congragulations flipper! You managed to go back to ronald regan to assign blame for the current school shootings. Pretty impressive. Im a bit supprised you didnt work Nixon in as well, but reaching back 30 years is impressive in its own right.

@humbled- i agree in tht i didnt feel as he did when it came to solutions. The whole sexual purity thing hs no relevance to school shootings. The motivations, however, were worth thought.

@giordano- gyns arnt a motive, they are a means. The article was focusing on motives/causes for the violence, not the means the ciolence is carried out

You just proved Flipper's point, Morpheus. Those two guys were angry at what they perceived as injustice and imbalance between the haves and have nots. They felt that they had a right to something that they were ultimately denied.
That is exactly not what flipper meant. Not even close. Flipper was taking his standard social justice warrior stance and trying to draw some rich/poor parallel, not some ‘have a girl/not have a girl’ comparison. Your explanation makes zero sense.
Why are there so many dislikes for Flipper's comment? He's absolutely right. Just because you don't want to believe something doesn't magically make it false. That's EXACTLY what the Watchtower does when it allows pedophiles to remain in good standing in the organization while shunning the victims. They don't want to believe the horrible truth, ergo, it CAN'T be true.
Like wise, just you believe something to be true dosent make it so. I gave evidence supporting the baseless nature of flippers conclusion. Also, when you pull the “your just like the wt!” card, you have as much as admitted you have no point and no idea what to say other than reach for what you percieve to be the worst insult you can think of. You would be better served setting aside your emotions and thinking things through with just a bit of dispassionate logic.

@wasanelder- i saw an interesting article deal with the “why” aspect. I didnt agree with the ultimate conclusion but the insight on basic motivations was interesting

It's not the media. It's because of the inequality and frustration in society between the haves and the have nots . It's the sickness in society where youths abandoned by non existent support systems fall through the cracks in this world and take their anger out in violent ways.
Completely false. The last two shooters were young men spurned by young ladies and they delt with it in the worst way imaginable. None of the school shooters has been poor or underprivledged. Thats part of what makes it so unreal, theres no backround of poverty and abuse.
