@MW_Gale A lot of these mass shooters would easily pass these tests. I know you like guns but their availability fuel a form of mass murder otherwise unknown to the civilized world
They have set up a 30 foot police watchtower in the middle of our local arts and wine festival and the SWAT team is walking around with rifles out just in case, this seems like a good way to have to live https://t.co/zpaAn4VkMg
@kevinkam @JohnDiesattheEn @Popehat I feel bad for Americans who don't realize that in most civilized countries (e.g. Europe) the police are actually helpful and law abiding. You need a serious culture change.
I'm not the first person to say this but all people have biases so when you insist on hiring reporters that have no biases you just hire the people who are in the most denial about all their biases and they write incredibly slanted pieces they genuinely believe are objective
People are pretty open about their flaws as long as
1) they're in the distant past
2) they're actually normal habits phrased as flaws ("I drink too much coffee!")
3) they don't get specific ("I'm trash! I'm awful!" "How?" "I'm a mess of a human being!")
One thing I've always found oddly grotesque is the way people demand "gratitude" from immigrants or underrepresented hires, not as in doing a good job or being productive but in the form of always grovelling and smiling and acting like they don't deserve this

'Where do we lose it?' he murmured. She glanced at him, catching the odd tone. 'We do, indeed, lose something,' she said." - Frank Herbert, 'Dune' (1965)
