Yeah it seems like dude with the gun had no trigger discipline, I cannot say for certain I'd do the same if in the situation.

Probably be the only time I'd get away with self defense manslaughter, if that's the term?!

fuck that.

i cant imagine having someone pull a gun on us while skating! do you guys in the States realise how fucked up that is? the casual gun laws you have blow my mind you cant even imagine how much people over here would lose there shit if a gun was pulled in public like that.

laws got nothing to do w/ it, gangmembers have stolen weapons. our gun laws prevent millions of potential crimes a yr, by i believe  6-1 ration vs guns used in crimes.
asides, in other countries the fat guy would throw acid or stab. guns are better because they're demonstrative.

i guess youre half right. i dont know anything about the statistics at all so ill take your word for it.

but nah that second point i disagree with. In the 2 decades ive been skating noone has ever pulled a knife or thrown acid on us. Theres been plenty of little scuffles and fights but the lowlifes in up here in Scotland arent out to kill anyone, they usually just want your wallet.

sure and how many vids are there of thugs pulling guns on skaters? it's happened, we had a mulch gap that became known as 'wiggers w/ guns gap' behind a situation but nobody was trying to hurt anyone, they were showing off a stolen firearm and throwing weight around.
and i think there's a bench spot known as 'bullets' but it wasn't related to violence against skaters.
our states run the gamut w/ gun rights but the ones where everyone might be strapped trend safer than the gun control areas, make of that what you will.

in the irishman was scorsese implying the mob assassinated kennedy?

[close]

Yea that's been one of the more popular conspiracy theories about kennedy.

How did you like the movie? Joe pesci is so fucking great. Much more relaxed performance than usual from him, but he has been out for a good while. It was a long film but it was very entertaining.

I liked parts of it. they could have definitely shortened it. some of the hoffa stuff especially was too long and not particularly interesting. I also think they should have hired younger actors for the early scenes.

Yea I agree with both sentiments. The hoffa stuff really slowed down everything.

[ChuckRamone]

"fuck with" used to mean to challenge or harass someone. but these days the meaning flipped to mean you're a fan of something, similar to the way "bad" took on a positive meaning in 80s slang. so when young people listen to "wu-tang clan ain't nuthin' ta f' wit," do they think the wu-tang clan is very aggressively declaring how shitty of a hip-hop group they are?

^ that’s a good bit

So I checked the official Olympics website to see what they have to say about skateboarding.

Strangely enough, despite there being articles about skateboarding on the site, it's still not listed as one of the sports - https://www.olympic.org/tokyo-2020

Maybe I'm missing something, or they have to finalize the teams or whatever, but it's a strange omission. Made me wonder if they could actually pull the plug on the whole thing, and if that happens, how we'd all react. I'm also wondering if the Olympic committee is aware of all the criticism and backlash from skateboarders to the inclusion in the Olympics, and if that's swaying their opinion on it.

Looking at the articles, one of them describes a girl from Brazil as "desperate" to get into the Olympics. Another one says "There’s no doubt that the Olympic spotlight on skateboarding and the impressive tricks on show will help boost the credibility of the sport. And almost certainly encourage more people to get skateboarding… " The tone is a little weird - like they're trying to prove that the Olympics is good for skateboarding. I don't know. Looking forward to the eventual thread!

I swear, Reddit is just a big information gathering device used by people trying to create a lifelike human AI. all the opinions and the level of upvotes and downvotes, all that raw data is probably being analyzed somewhere to be used at a later date to create a synth or some shit.

What is peace? Does it exist anywhere? Its Peace as I picture achievable or is it against the natural order of reality.

Why is there a fiery wall of plasma just outside our solar system. Not very peaceful

What is peace? Does it exist anywhere? Its Peace as I picture achievable or is it against the natural order of reality.

Why is there a fiery wall of plasma just outside our solar system. Not very peaceful

Peace is the natural flow of energy, its entropy, order vs chaos. The sun is an incredibly peaceful purge, an orgasm lasting 10 billion years, imagine how amazing it is to be the universe? The sun exists because of a flow, from order back to chaos, from a nexus to the edge of the solar system, that flow is peaceful and blissful. We swim in an ocean, on the surface treading amongst waves. Why is it so rough? Maybe cause the calm is what we tread in, what we stress to float upon. We are the waves that toss us side to side, I am the spray burning your face. Everything is suddenly so beautiful, when you become a fetus submerged in a womb, engulfed in an abyss, you see its always the same, Below the flailing, and splashing, below the fighting and swimming, one day,
Drowning.
