The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Wait, so now you think a dictator should disarm its citizens and people cannot be trusted with rights?

It is hilarious watching you argue with yourself. Or that for some reason you feel the need to mischaracterize your opponent's views, maybe to make yourself feel better?

"What amazes me is nobody is curious why so many people want to pull the triggers." - More LOLJedi

You don't understand human nature? Why some people will want to lash out when they are angry? You don't understand mental illness? You don't understand that there is a huge emotional burden on those left behind in a man-eat man world of unrestrained capitalism?

There are lots of reasons people get driven to the brink enough to do harmful things to other people. We should all want to help these people get mental help, unfortunately there are too many assholes like you who support politicians who consistently vote against providing mental health help to those pushed to become harmful.
