  Is it a Gun Issue or a Mental Illness Issue or Both?

  by minimus in

  we have had another shooting.

  many are blaming trump and the republicans and the nra.. is it because of guns that there are so many massacres or could it be that these killers are mental?.

  do you think guns should be removed from our society so that these atrocities never occur again?

  The best part about guns is how they make liberals flip out.

  What Do You Think of The News Media?

  i used to pretty much believe anything they would report.

  now, though, i find myself questioning “journalists “, with the realization that much of what is said may be inaccurate or slanted..

  I think it is less about trust and more about balance. I do not mind reading fake news like CNN and WAPO and will even believe some of the things they write, but I balance it out with other sources like rebel media, the_donald, breitbart (although they have kind of shit the bed) and so on. Being a moderate is all about striking a balance & being open to new ideas IMO.

  Anyone watching Star Trek Discovery?

  so i've been watching the show and really enjoying it.

  great to see a trek tv series finally get a reasonable budget.

  beautiful costumes, sets, cinematography, action pieces, etc.. really my only complaints are how cg all the ships look and there's a fair bit of stiff dialog from time to time.. what do you guys think of the show?.

  Im watching it. I didn't get the whole subplot with the geeky guy from the prison who had but-sex with the Klingon lady and then turned out to be Klingon himself??? like when did they make him into a human? That seems pretty silly. Also I don't get which Klingon he was supposed to be.

  I am near the end of season 2, and it seems to get a bit SJW preachy with all the "all choices are the same" crap. If it was me, I would be all like: Lets just turn Tarran and barbecue the annoying tall alien!

  It would be a pretty cool season 3 where they travel the galaxy and eat all the aliens lol.

  A crisis of scientific reproducability

  https://www.nature.com/news/1-500-scientists-lift-the-lid-on-reproducibility-1.19970.

  more than 70% of researchers have tried and failed to reproduce another scientist's experiments, and more than half have failed to reproduce their own experiments.

  i didn't know it was so widespread...but it's a big problem in biology/medicine..

  @Whatshallcallmyself: Look at it this way: There are N things for man to discover about nature (like evolution, or newtons law, and so on). We have discovered some number of them, and so it stands to reason there are now less things to discover.

  @steve2: just look at the references on the previous page. Gad Saad has a lot of material on how bad social sciences are (google him).

  once more, liberals are shooting themselves in the foot. This time they submitted a memo so full of classified information it cannot be released, lol.

  It is probably by design. They know they got nothing on the Nunes memo, so they make sure their memo cannot be released and then they can attempt to blame Trump.

  Lots of research is today confirmed to be a scam. In my opinion, part of the reason is there are more researchers today, and less to discover (obviously). So they compete and compete and obviously they will slip up or make things up to get ahead.

  Then there is social science, which should just be shut down, period!

  liberals literally destroy everything. Just look at Sweden. I seriously think some forms of liberalism should be banned bc they destroy free speech for everyone.

  Jackass: you are a disgrace. You should be ashamed to come here and advocate hateful views such as banning free speech, and then not have the guts to stand by your ideas. you are a full of weasel words and arrogant to boot.

  Jesus Christ what a moron. Speech should not be limited. Stop mincing words with stupid examples. Liberals want to limit our speech by redefining harm to include their feelz. You are attempting a GIANT bait and switch by first saying u want to limit harmfull speech, and then DISHONESTLY SWITCHING definitions to include ur stupid feelz.

  We are not falling for your dishonesty. OMFG I can't even.
