  If I was still PIMI, I'd be terrified

  just looking at the pictures in tomorrow's wt study makes me think of the nightmares i used to have as a child.

  and nowadays the pictures are sometimes more realistic, so for any who are truly mentally in, this has a terrible effect on them and even their life choices.

  looking in as a pimo or pomo it seems almost comical that adults would believe in this sci-fi bible fan-fiction, but it's not funny when we remember that all ages of the r&f are being manipulated by the gb by these cheap and evil means.. .

  Spirit creatures with facial hair?? Why do spirit creatures need hair to keep them warm, and prevent sweat getting into their eyes or .....nether regions etc? 🤔

  Remember, the WT ORG fancies itself an earthly counterpart of a spiritual, heavenly arrangement.

  That said, I'm rather surprised that spirit creatures with facial hair are granted privileges (like slaughtering most of humanity) in the heavenly arrangement....

  I can only figure that Jehovah isn't really worried about who might be stumbled by the beards of his heavenly sons...

  Cause of Mass Shootings Mental Health?

  i have been sad to see so many groups and individuals say that the cause of these events are the mental status of the shooters.

  i have looked over the backgrounds of these shooters, and few had medically identified mental health issues.

  it is too easy to think that people shoot or kill other people because they are mentally ill.. actually, many or most people with real mental illnesses are most likely to be the victims of others.. i have been a volunteer with the organization called nami (national alliance of mental lillness) for 25 years now.

  If you have a mentally unstable person living with you, and you leave a gun on the kitchen table and go to work, only to come home and realize this person went out and killed 25 people, you can't just shrug your shoulders and say ... " well it's not the gun's fault, it's the mental disease". Of course it's the mental disease, but you made it incredible easy for this to happen and that's part of question.

  Yes. Of course, with every right comes a responsibility, and in a scenario like that, whomever that gun belonged to would incur massive (criminal, even?) liability for failing to secure their weapon.

  No one is suggesting that we start passing out weapons to the Trick-or-Treaters.

  If society is honest and historically accurate, the only question that has any relevance to the gun control debate is,

  "Do you trust those in government, now and forever in the future, to not take your life, liberty, or property through the force of government?"

  If the answer to that question is "no," the gun control debate is over. - KrisAnne Hall

  The second amendment was not written into the constitution for hunting. To try to conflate this is ignorant or willfully stupid.

  I know. Are we allowed to plainly state why it's there?

  If we were a nation of 300 million vegans, it is still ESSENTIAL to a free and open society. No accident that these explicitly recognized individual rights go..

  regarding the sale of assault type rifles in the US or why you cant buy or own one in many countries today.

  Fink, can you address your persistent use of this fallacious argument? You've been leaning on this through the thread.

  There is a reason why in most modernized countries you cant legally buy assault type weapons such as the Ar-15 or Ak-47 ..... why is that ?

  This law was created to protect the government...

  Let's pause here. This is COMPLETELY incorrect. The law was created to protect the people FROM their government. If you are unaware, the American colonists were suffering various abuses of power from their government.

  Why would a government need protection under law? The government already makes and enforces the laws. Maybe this explains your reasoning for your position on the issue. You don't think people are likely to be threatened by a malicious government?

  Greenland For Sale

  the donald has recently suggested that he would like to look into buying greenland from denmark in the same manner that alaska was purchased from the russians.

  i think the danes would be smart to look into selling it as it is costing them money every year with very little returns for their investments so far.. the alternative might well be that donald declares greenland a national security threat and invades them so that the world remains safe for democracy.

  i would suggest to the danes that as any other real estate transaction that they put it on the open market and see how much russia or china are willing to offer .

  Wouldn't real independence mean discontinuation of subsidy?

  Congrats, Simona Halep!

  simona halep has just given serena williams an absolute ass-whupping, winning her first wimbledon title.. so i guess congratulations are in order.. but, i gotta say, if i'd forked out loads of money for a courtside seat i'd be a bit disappointed.

  the match lasted just 56mins, with halep winning in straight sets 6-2 6-2.. surely, it's time for the women to play over 5 sets in grand slam matches?.

  Boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates

  now i think i may have seen everything.. "boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates".

  i'm all for people being entitled to wear what they want and live as they please as long as they're not harming anyone but - a male prom queen?

  maybe there wasn't much competition in his school?.

  I wonder if the young ladies at the school were eligible to be Prom King.
  
  Because if they weren't, it would seem that they were handed a very distinct disadvantage due only to being females.
  
  Right? If the males could win either King and/or Queen, but the females could only win Queen, that doesn't seem fair...
