Wow.....the pro-gun contigent here is on hair trigger defense mode.
Because we're tired of something that is an issue with America's mental health system being turned into an issue about guns.
anyone in the usa following this morning's shooting "on-air" live tv will know what i'm talking about.
bryce williams (not real name, but on-air name) shot and killed 2 people on live television this morning in roanoke, va. he was wearing a go-pro camera, and uploaded his first-person video onto his social media accounts.
i've seen his twitter feed (before it was taken down), and not very far down he mentions being raised a jw.

I read that he shot himself and is in a critical condition. Hopefully his self-inflicted injuries will prove fatal.
Hopefully they EVENTUALLY prove fatal...but not yet. He doesn't deserve it that easy.

"...people in America shoot each other..."
SMH People all over the world shoot each other. This isn't an American problem. You just hear about it more often because the American media has the motto, "if it bleeds, it leads."
me personally.....i think....if it was meant to be mixed ...it would come in the bottle that way.. that said...bacardi gold.
Old Fashioned for me.
I was drinking Old Fashioneds before they were cool again.

Dannnng.
so, i have recently been delving in buddhism and i must say it all makes sense!
like, the philosophies and ideas are what i've always believed but could never put a name to.
for example, they don't believe in god, they teach acceptance of all faiths, that peace can be achieved - not by changing other people - but by changing yourself, that everyone has goodness in themselves, that happiness can be gained internally (not externally as a gift from god), and that life is temporary so we should enjoy it!
Cofty's comment is exactly why I say I'm a secular buddhist, if people ask me.
I agree with the tenets of the philosophy...but I don't agree with the supernatural stuff the traditional buddhists believe in.
atheists, deists, or believer.....basic philosophic ground .
either good exist, or has never been, or is dead.
those are he the three basic premises that we all humans must take a stand to.
Good is occasionally a matter of perspective.
Like I would say that ending the war in the pacific (WWII) was a good thing.
the inhabitants of Hiroshima and Nagasaki would likely disagree.
Or take another example. In Texas, we have been experiencing a drought for quite some time. This year, we had so much rain in the spring that it was a huge help in getting the water table and wells filled up. The drought is over for now. So the rain was good.
However, the rain also brought flooding and some people lost their lives. Those people and their surviving families would likely disagree that the rain we had this year was good.

The audio is pretty overmodulated. Is there a better recording?
It's hard enough for us yanks to understand different British accents, but the overmodulation made it virtually impossible for me to follow.
:-( Thanks for the upload, though.
hi all, nothing to report just now.
wanted to add name to list of those awakening.
been lurking for nearly a year.
