      A month or two ago five rich people died suddenly in a wrinkled chunk of carbon fiber and metal and the world cheered.

      Baby steps.

          Yes I’m sure the billionaire’s child was invited.

          I’m sure he wasn’t a spoiled shit who demanded his dad also spend a quarter mil on him so he could see the titanic, too.

            Of course that is a possibility but that doesn’t mean we should celebrate his death.

            It is possible for a spoiled child to grow up and become a decent adult.

      I saw a meme on here recently that said “the difference between me and God is if I saw a child getting raped, I’d step in and save it”

        I still think Stephen Fry’s response to a Catholic priest said it best.

      This exactly. Religions are stupid. Either a) God doesn’t exist or b) God does exist and is doing nothing about any of the evil people doing absolutely reprehensible shit in society right now.

      Either way, fuck God. If God exists he is no friend of mine.

      I’d imagine it’s a combination of rich people getting better medical care, both preventatively and when something happens (and bad people who aren’t rich don’t make the news as much and don’t stay in it), coupled with the fact that when something does happen to one of these people, they quickly fade from people’s attention as new villains take their place. For instance, Herman Cain isn’t in people’s thoughts as much these days.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
