Firearms were used to kill 13,286 people in the U.S. in 2015. The population at that time was 316 million people. That is, 0.0042% of the population died by guns. Counting accidents, police shootings, mass shootings, and good old homicides, that is 167 times smaller than the average population...

Ah, alright then. Guess I'll just wait for it to come out online.

What's Svalbard? The National Park Rangers are for protection of the wildlife in nature reserves, and act as guides for visitors, as well. Bear spray is non-lethal to the bears, and they are a protected species in the US.

Then why make a blanket statement like that if you don't agree with it? I'm inclined to believe the people who have to use it in bear encounters. If the Park Rangers say it works, that's enough for me. That's the Constitution. That's what the Bill of Rights affected. The Bill of Rights are...

Well, Turkey's Ergodan has made the country more tyrannical, and that's supposedly a democratic country. It's a NATO member, as well, so it's not exactly far from Western ideals. But my point was that if you apply your idea of "if it can happen we shouldn't give that power" to things like fire...

That's all right, Wammytap.

Sorry, got confused. Disregard everything I said.

It's weird, but people find that funny for some reason, too. This isn't super weird but I love to show off PTZ Tracking Test videos. My favorite is a man running away from something in the fog behind him, but I can't find it right now. Instead, it's this overused demo that I see shown off too...

Shouldn't that just be counted as war? I mean, they have entirely different governments and cultures, and they didn't split a pre-existing nation. America was dead by the time the NCR rose, with the Enclave being little more than a mistranslation of pre-war ideals. Well, not really. The Enclave...

NEO Scavenger. Cool game. I liked that butler-looking guy you had before a bit more, 8/10 though.

People criticize holding on to the past? For All's sake, people are living in a preserved wasteland of Old-World ideas, why wouldn't they adopt them? There's a certain type of maturation a society has to reach before cultural development can take hold, and it's obvious atomic bombs wouldn't...

(re: 1940s Germany) We have the Republican party, which is extremely pro-gun rights, to offset people in government that would take away this right, EXCEPT... Well, executive orders can basically do anything, and there's no limiting power on them. If the case so happens that the right...

Now that's a snake/10

Is there an ability to listen in without participating? I'd like to hear it live but I don't know how the podcast is set up.

I've found that country music falls linearly in the range of 6/10 for me because it all sounds the same to me. Good song though, 8/10 on that one. Now, FOLK music is something I can always get behind.

When the Founders of our country made the Constitution, a lot of people (Anti-Federalists) saw problems that we had fought against would not necessarily be corrected with the sole ideas of the Constitution. These people brought forward a "Bill of Rights", which guaranteed, in its points, a...

Country music gets a solid 6/10 blanket

Since you're at least COMMONLY versed in US gun legislation (or at least, to the casual observer, that's how it seems), what gun laws would you propose we change? Should we only change gun laws at the state level? At the city level? Or should we cast a blanket of laws that apply to everyone from...

It could also be postulated that after the divergence of the timeline from ours, there could have been major improvements made to vacuum tube technology.

Pillory is the word you're looking for, if you care. A common slang for pillory is "the stocks", if that rings a bell.
