Basically, but for certain people, the 2nd is the only one worth fighting for. At least it feels like that sometimes.

Personally, I think certain people are fine with violations of other people's rights. Just not theirs. Do you think they would have an issue with denying firearms to Muslims? I've seen plenty of Facebook jokes about gun stores where you have to eat bacon before you can buy a gun.

Saw a similar one about all refugees having to walk through a mist of pig's blood before deplaning in the US.

Because ... you know ... anyone who isn't a super-devout Muslim would be oh-so cool with that.

Yeah, what a moron. I am obviously not a Muslim and love bacon, but no way I would be willing to "walk through a mist of pig's blood" before deplaning.

Seriously? I had not seen this one but that idiot is really coming up with new stupid ideas and is allowed to breathe the same air the reset of us do?

That's up there with the old-school "witch finding" techniques. "Just burn them at the stake; if they die, they were good, but if they live, they're a witch!!!!"

Yeah. "Throw her in the lake. If she floats, SHE'S A WITCH!"

Don't forget to burn them after they float since you know, they are a witch.

Well, I mean ... obviously. You have to burn her. We brought all the kindling and stuff. It would be a shame not to.

Another shooting, this time in a shopping mall in Germany. Probably going to be another 10+ dead.

I know it's pretty irrational...but I wouldn't want to visit Europe right now.

Same.

I'm going to Ireland in November, and that's been on my mind since I bought the tickets.

Going to Italy in November, and this has been on my mind as well unfortunately. At least Ireland only borders water.

It can happen anywhere. France is the only country I would really be worried about. (Just went a month ago but didn't stay in France, only in and out of Paris. The euro was just starting and we were flying out that day, only time I was really thinking about it)

I think Europe is probably far safer than Chicago

Chicago had 320 homicide victims last year. 12 were white (and they were probably buying drugs :RpS_w00t:)

Yeah, there is a big difference in the "Chicago" you hear on the news with all the murders, and the Chicago I live in (streeterville).
