Anti-Gun PSA Makes the Case for Women With Guns

ChaosEngine says...

You've just countered your own point. The "majority" of Americans (and indeed humans in general) are and have frequently wrong on just about every issue in history.


  • A few hundred years ago, the majority were for slavery.

  • 120 years ago, the majority believed that only white men should be able to vote.

  • It's only in the last 5-10 years that the majority decided that homosexuals should have the same rights as heterosexuals (and it's only barely a majority now).


Meanwhile, as you said, the majority seem to be fine with the slow erosion of every other freedom enshrined in your constitution.

Frankly, the majority are idiots.

Each of the issues outlined above were opposed by the majority, but a few progressive intellectuals slowly changed things.

The same will happen for guns.

If it doesn't, it will be due to the triumph of lobbyists over citizenry.

If the majority of Americans were anti-gun ownership, then the 2nd amendment would have already been disposed of (as has happened with most of the other amendments on the Bill of Rights).

So folks here can complain all they want, but there's never going to be any progress on the (out-of-touch) anti-gun effort in the United States. That's where most Americans seem to draw the line: "The state can do whatever (e.g., surveil its people, drone foreigners indiscriminately, devastate the dollar, etc.), but don't touch the guns." In this, it's the anti-gun contingency that remains in the minority in the U.S. Even Joe Biden campaigned on his gun ownership.

Alas, most of the (conservative, rural state and Southern state liberals, inner city minorities, or NRA-supporting, and anti-NRA) gun-owners are not among the "progressive" (pseudo-)intellectuals on Videosift.

Sir Isaac Newton vs Bill Nye. Epic Rap Battles of History

ChaosEngine says...

NdGT and Bill Nye are both far better people than Newton was, but

  • Calculus
  • Gravity
  • Newtonian motion


Any one of those would be enough to qualify him as one of the greats.

Newton vs Einstein or Hawking would be a fairer match.

Precisely...but ND Tyson trumps all arguements. If he sides with Nye, so do I.

"I will survive" - Nerd Revenge in VH1 Anti-Bully ad

Lilithia says...

Question: What do thirteen-year-old bullies do while watching this video?

  • a) They reconsider their behavior and eventually stop bullying their peers.

  • b) They laugh their asses off without listening to the text and try to re-enact scenes from the video the next day.

I can imagine what the ones I used to know would have done.

Hint: It's not a).

Note: This doesn't mean that I believe none of them would choose action a). I believe, however, that most of the bullies I came to know would have chosen b).

The Raid Director Gareth Evans Lists His Top 5 Action Scenes

ChaosEngine says...

It sounds like the ultimate hipster doucheism, but really Jackie Chans Hong Kong movies are just so much better than his western stuff. Police Story is just so funny, it really showcases Chans comedic timing.

If you haven't seen it, you're really missing out. It's worth it for the scene where he has to answer 5 phones at once alone.

Also similiar to that last scene is the last fight in Fearless between Jet Li and Shido Nakamura (or at least his stunt double)
