My knowledge of Indian politics is limited to those shitpost status memes from a few years ago, but sure

1. Japan is not comparable to the US.
2. Studies that use gun deaths and gun crime as opposed to just death and crime are a form of deliberate cherry-picking.

@Roosevelt (BANNED LOL- Only for a month though? He’s a repeat offender!)
Trump inherited 800 million (adjusted for inflation) and today he has a net worth less than that.
Womp womp
The funny thing about my argument is that I chose Donald Trump because I know how much you hate him. I could’ve chosen any Republican or well-known conservative who makes a lot more than you.
The point I was making is simple: You have established a level of wealth that believe is the difference between being a loser and being a winner. What’s to stop someone even wealthier than you saying you are a loser, based on that metric? At some point you have to admit that money isn’t everything.
You are not a winner or a loser based on what money you make, but rather, if you have good morals and are happy in life. You don’t have good morals, and based on your DART posts, I’m not convinced you’re a happy person. Hence why I called you sad and miserable, along with “loser.” I stand by what I said.

@Double_R
Maybe you're right and I don't have enough faith in him, but I think he's exactly the partisan circlejerker myself and others say he is.
Just take a look at his threads. They're mostly inane criticisms that, at the end of the day, are not going to influence someone's vote if that someone is concerned with policy over stuff like some documentary on a TV show from over a decade ago... or about Marjorie Taylor Greene's divorce. In fact, I don't even care who's in his cabinet if it's Trump vs. Harris. Hell, I don't even care whether or not Trump is a good person. I only care about the quality of his policies.
Even in the threads where he may have a tiny point, he relies heavily on out-of-context quotes and regurgitates whatever mainstream media slop he came across that day.
If this thread is some satire of some things he's seen right-wingers post, he's got me fooled.
Sure, he may be jaded by the fact that some right-wingers will dumb down issues to "red states good, blue states bad"... but I'm convinced it's the fact that the blue states are the accused ones that bothers him, not the dumbing down of it all. If that isn't the case, why does he feel the need to defend Chicago's unenforceable gun laws (and the crime rates that are increased by said laws being violated) by blaming violations of said law on Indiana? (NOTE: It's not for the alleged satire in this thread; this isn't the first time I've seen him fall back on MuH HoOsIEr GUnS when someone brings up Chicago's inability to enforce its own laws.)
To me, this looks no different than every other hyper-partisan thread he's made. This is the dude who was calling Thomas Crooks a patriot, and demeaning Trump supporters as people who should be "forced underground" by any means, including physical force. He's also the dude who routinely approaches my arguments with bad faith... so why should I have any good faith in him here?

You find me tiresome, yet you keep responding. This is not a problem. I welcome the discussion.
The problem lies in the fact that you won’t tag me, because you want to get the last word in and you’re hoping I don’t see it. Stop being a pussy.
“Exploitation” is not my go-to for those who promote gun control as a solution. It is rather a statement of intent as I see it.
A layman who promotes gun control because they view it as the solution? Pure, but wrong.
An egotistical idiot who makes a thread dedicated to “my state better than your state,” with no thought to the issue itself? Exploitative.
And no, he is not simply someone who is “fed up with bs” or whatever. If he was, he would be making real arguments, not ignoring them. If he was, he would cite evidence, not his supposed “6 houses.”
He is not motivated by being intelligent or solving problems. He is motivated by feeling intelligent and “proving” superiority.
To him, tragedies like school shootings are nothing more than a bat to beat down on his opponents with.
He is a scumbag.

I’m not calling the standard leftist who proposes gun control exploitative, not on that front. Roosevelt is distinct in that his motives are a scorecard that he uses to feel superior.

@badger
You also should tag me next time.
Incidents like these a tragic and noteworthy. We should do things to address them. Not with what the left proposes, but the problem does need to be addressed.
However, Roosevelt has made many threads talking about how “red state crime is out of control”… a claim anyone reasonable would recognize as ridiculous. In truth, crime rates in any location are a product of many factors, and it isn’t a blue/red split. Idaho and Wyoming are testament to that fact.
His whole argument here is basically just “other side bad.” While the other lefties in this thread offer solutions (ineffective ones, but solutions nonetheless), he offers no solution, instead citing his imaginary political scorecard.
His intent is not pure.

@IwantRooseveltagain
Tag me next time, coward.
Stop selling them guns you morons! I realize Indiana is a welfare state, but at least have some integrity.
LOL! Instead of arguing against the point I made, you just repeated the same absurd claim. You can’t even bring yourself to acknowledge my points, can you?
That would require you to have some intellectual honesty. You don’t have any.
Um, I make a lot of money. I’ve been married for more than 30 years and now own 6 houses. My kids both graduated college.
A while ago you said you made around $400,000 a year… apparently, in one year, you’re now rich enough to own six houses. You are a bad liar.
But let’s assume you’re telling the truth…
Donald Trump has more money than you do. Therefore, he is a winner and you are a loser.

Bullshit, those guns are being supplied by red states.
And the seekers of those red state guns are residents of the very blue Windy City.
Turns out, when you place heavy restrictions on guns and gun ownership, criminals and otherwise law-abiding individuals alike will turn to the black market. Conservatives have been saying this for years; thanks for helping my case.
Go ahead, keep trying to spin the issue and blame Indiana for Chicago’s inability to enforce its own laws.
Sick and twisted is all MAGA MORONS understand. They are very sensitive to the crime issue unless it is happening in red states.
A sad deflection from a miserable loser. I ask again, why do you exploit tragedy for the sake of some political scoreboard?

Crime is out of control in the red states and red counties.
Also, how sick and twisted are you, to take an event like this and use it for a cheap, political potshot?

All the guns in Chicago come from Iowa. Thanks corn people
Ha! Last time you blamed Indiana. Chicago’s laws; Chicago’s responsibility. This issue is not the corn people’s problem 🤷♂️

@ me next time. I haven’t blocked you.
I doubt you spend as much time outside as you say, but whatever.
Anyway, no normal person is this upset over a hat. So many older men wear these hats that no one sees them as boyish; even you wore them for a while.
In fact, why would anyone consider a simple hat like that as “boyish” in the first place? I don’t- it seems pretty inoffensive to most people.
All that changed was that you saw some Trump supporters wearing hats, and then you decided they were stupid because Trump supporters were wearing them. It’s hilarious.

Honestly maybe I should make a little YouTube video going over my decisions…
I got 42 deaths.
I found that in most cases, the circumstances around the deaths mattered less than the number of deaths.

Eh. I get it. If you have all your prep made for a debate against Biden, a lot of it is going to be useless for a debate against Harris.
I would prefer he reschedule instead, however.

Oh I totally was willing to take a kingmaker win…
But I only thought there was two mafiosos.
So my plan was to just help town catch them for the quickest win possible, and if that doesn’t work then I can side with the scum team

You know what? I'll take the L on this. Fair enough.
A never Trump-Republican. Not the jilted Trump lover IWRA initially said, so we were both wrong. Although he's still gonna have a massive ego about it. Was hoping I would be right just he'd be more humble. Fool's errand.
Anyway I got no beef with you HB- I can actually look past political disagreements when evaluating someone.

I misread him. I don't have a slight scumread on Owen, I have a townread now after the CC.

@Cerulean
Who are likely partners for Pie and why?
Honestly, I don't know. I was thinking Owen because of his behavior and I felt the CC was a noob scum play. But then I realized that he would need a scum teammates approval for it and that didn't line up with my logic of him making the CC play on his own.
In some godforsaken hell world where both you and Pie are Town, what do you think the Mafia team looks like?
Possibly Wylted. But there's so many other options. I'm inclined to say Savant isn't one of them. I felt like his defense of me was reasonable even if he doesn't believe it now.
Again, I'm sorry for the gambit but I really did not think Pie would believe me. I still don't. I think he's obvious scuim and latching onto my mistake for an easy mislynch. Any time scum lynches town, it's easy for them to blame it on the townie playing bad, so they almost never get sussed for it.

@AustinL0926
I misread him based on something I saw cerulean say, and then I read his behavior from there. I felt it was too much of trying to blend in, and I also felt like he wasn't trying to learn and play like last game. He was just asking town to carry him which I felt was his way of avoiding suspicion.

Because 1. I knew Pie wouldn't believe any claim I made, 2. town rb is strong so I wanted to avoid an NK, so I made up the bulletproof thing and claimed I was trying to bait it.

I think this should be fine. Something like month + year the character came into existence + where it’s from (ie book, movie, game, play, etc). Still keeps the range open, but heavily restricts it as well.
This is him trying to get more information. It's one thing to try and limit scum teams fake claims, it's another thing to give yourself an easy way to guess someone's chaaracter so you can try and take a stab at their role.
I actually want to move to Mharman for insinuating that no one should claim because it would give scum information.
Here he is moving onto me for mislynch for speaking an obvious truth.
Post 121, he says that he doesn’t support the Wylted train because it’s going to help scum get identify PRs, which doesn’t make sense at all unless he knows Wylted is town.
Terrible logic. He's reaching here.
And then there's his whole overanaylsis into something I said when I wasn't thinking super clearly. I did the same thing last game and he hasn't addressed my point, except with a weak attempt to invalidate my point by saying me doing it last game invalidates the reason I did it this time.
