It was irresponsible to manufacture in the first place. So, no - the manufacturer needs to be held responsible as well.  When you start building guns to resemble toys then they will be treated as such. Children don’t have the reasoning capability to understand the full difference, or that shooting someone really kills them for good - especially 4 to 6 year olds which are within the suggested age range.

Because he is thanking him for furthering the idea that homosexuality is wrong, that we must all arm ourselves against it, that we must hold the homosexuals down because God says it’s an abomination, etc., etc.  The very nature of the statements and what they imply are hateful, bigoted, and homophobic.  Think of the same sportscaster saying that Chinese people are naturally just wrong, they shouldn’t wed, shouldn’t be able to adopt, etc. The Chinese person did not ask to be Chinese, they just are - can you really disagree with them being Chinese without being a bigot?

She tries too hard.

You have clearly never worked as a waitress or in customer service, and have probably never had to serve 20 people. It’s a lot of work, and many waitresses/waiters/bartenders/etc have to rely on tips because they don’t get, or only get minimum wage (at least in my state, since it’s a tipping job restaurants are able to factor in potential tips while setting the wages).  As for the photograph, it doesn’t include credit card information, so what’s the big deal? I’m glad she called out someone so (literally and morally) cheap as to try and use God as a reason not to tip someone for a job well done.

He has a point. When businesses and the rich can just buy our elections the average folk are pretty screwed. There was an amazing showing of grassroots supporters out knocking on doors for Barrett, but they just didn’t have the cash to get out ads that lied to the public. Walker’s ads that presented numbers that were unverified, twisted logic about who should be to blame for categorization of crimes, used incomplete quotes, tried to propose that no teachers had to be fired to balance the budget, etc. ultimately were taken by the people as facts.
The long term effect of the budget cuts in education and dismantling of unions is scary. Walker even admitted it didn’t save the state any money - so what was the point? I’m guessing so that businesses will ultimately have all the power. He didn’t even start paying into his own retirement funds and what not until he absolutely had to, even after his promised to begin right away.
But hey - thanks for the 5,000 jobs Scotty. Now subtract all the recently “let go” teachers and account for all of the companies who simply moved to WI but didn’t hire new employees and … oh, wait.

I didn’t vote for him … but he’s delivered more than was advertised, and not in a good way. It’s like he offered a slap to the face, but then wound up and socked WI right in the kisser.

I borrowed my Dad’s Durango while I moved because I drive a smaller, more fuel efficient car… I don’t think that makes me a person who relies on others to do things for me, especially since they didn’t even help me move. I think that just makes me someone who borrowed my dad’s larger vehicle, nothing more conclusive can be drawn from that.
