America - The Official Thread

I wish I didn't know and there's not really a way to prevent it from being known. Kid may have done this just for being known.

Which could well be the case as he chose to surrender to the police rather than take his own life as well.

Ethan Crumbley.

Yup, and his parents are James and Jennifer which are easy enough to find on social media. I'd give you three guesses as to what kind of people they are on social media, but you probably only need one. Yes, they're those kinds of people. I'd also give you three guesses as to what political figure they idolize, but you'd probably just need one guess there too.

Otto von Bismarck. Those Bismarckies are cray-cray.

Bismarckies

 

[TexRex]

You just know other Bismarck lovers are going to chime in and say this didn't happen because they're Bismarck lovers, rather it happened because the kid was unstable, all while wilfully ignoring the fact that all Bismarck lovers are unstable--it's a requirement.

Absolute ****ing garbage, those Bismarckies. I rarely speak in absolutes but this is definitely an exception.

Bismarkists?

Isn't "the bis" supposed to run with JFK Jr. in 2024?

Bismarckins.

Edit: It occurs to me that I've made a plural of what is already a plural ("kin") in the context that I intend it, which is an error. Now I'm annoyed with myself because I know I've done this on a number of occasions.

Ethan was acting Alone (Again, Naturally). Bad By Himself. Until his mom and dad are charged and discover that What Comes Around Goes Around.

This kid is in for a rude awakening:

15-year-old charged as an adult with terrorism, murder in Oxford High School shooting

The suspect will face charges of terrorism, first-degree murder, assault with intent to murder and possession of a firearm, law enforcement officials announced Wednesday.

www.mlive.com

He will face one count of terrorism causing death, four counts of first-degree murder for the four students who died of gunshot wounds, seven counts of assault with intent to murder and 12 counts of possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

He very well could be looking at life without parole here too.

Trump tested positive 2 days before this photo. Apparently he tested negative again before the photo, and insisted on going maskless at the debate. Ultimately we know that the 2nd test was a false negative.


Apparently Chris Wallace moderated a debate with Trump in 2016 with almost the same looking setup, and I got tricked into thinking a photo from that was in 2020. Here's Wallace's satement about the 2020 debate, and where Trump was with respect to Biden and himself, after knowingly testing positive 2 days prior:

Wallace, who moderated the debate in Cleveland, said he "never got any closer to [Trump] than what you saw on TV" and was about eight feet away from each candidate.

8 feet - with all that jabbering, and having tested positive 2 days prior. 8 feet from unvaccinated Wallace, and I guess necessarily less than 16 feet from unvaccinated Biden.

Edit:

I feel like it's worth noting that Wallace was sitting below where the candidates were standing. So 8 feet was probably not really sufficient.

Look at that pathetic power move. Dragging the hand and arm of the person whose hand you're shaking in towards yourself while keeping your own elbow tucked into your body is absolutely classic **** psychology.

Yup. 100%. It's a very telling photo. It doesn't pertain to what I was posting, but it does absolutely show what you said.

 

[TexRex]

Just look at that jerk; the handshake is really weird as well.

You mean these kinds of people*:

“Mr. Trump, I actually love that you are a bad public speaker because that showed sincerity, and humility,” she wrote. “You changed your mind, and you said ‘so what.’ You made the famous ‘grab them in the pussy’ comment, did it offend me? No. I say things all the time that people take the wrong way, do I mean them, not always. Do I agree that you should of [sic] shown your tax returns? No. I don’t care what you do or maybe don’t pay in taxes, I think those are personal and if the Gov’t can lock someone up over $10,000 of unpaid taxes and you slipped on by, then that shows the corruption.”

[P.S. we should be together too]

Chilling Journal Found as Teen Gunman’s Parents Are Probed

Ethan Crumbley, 15, had displayed “behavior in the classroom” that school officials “felt was concerning.”

Exactly and you're completely right, it sounds like Stan.

And that link from The Daily Beast, holy hell that's certainly something. This seems like a pretty open and shut case in terms of premeditation, especially since it's documented in several places that he was going to do it. I do find it alarming that the school had a meeting with the parents to discuss Crumbley's behavior. They missed some serious red flags there and it almost seems like the school district is on the hook for at least some sort of negligence suit.

Amazing.

I should have become a professional firefighter; there's so many heads on fire nowadays and not enough resources to safely put them out.

Just carry a bucket of water everywhere you go or carry a sealed container of halon. Problem solved!

You already have the fitness part down, so it would be an easy transition to make if you want to change careers.

Sadly, another entertaining talent lost this year.

Therefore, the plural of Otto von Bismark are Bis-merkins...

So a funding bill ekes by with hours to spare just like it did in September. The next scheduled imperilment is in February because Republicans want regular showdowns as venues to bitch about grievances.

Because EVERYTHING needs to be drama, bickering and hyper-partisan, the government will gladly shoot itself in the foot and create a problem for its constituents just to "own/beat the other side".
