    No, I was mostly referring to the Giffords' shooting, aurora, Oregon, and obviously Newtown. Plus the media jumped right on the Lone Star College fight and called it a major shooting.

    I can agree about those shootings. I can understand reporting them because they are "news events". I just do not agree with the days and days of dedicated coverage they give the shooter.

    That said; the news stations are only showing what gets the viewers. People are more interested in movie stars, athletes, and murders than politics and national interests.

    Its a conspiracy, man. 100 years from now someone will read about this in a book and will see where the government was taking out all these people that opposed them.

    John Noveske, Kieth Ratliff, Cris Kyle...

    Right now you're considered a nut and you wear a tinfoil hat if you think anything other than what the media tells you but my money is on something behind the scenes is going on. Just my .02




    anyways, happy hump day :pccoffee:
    I started getting up at 5am this week to get to the gym before the fam wakes up. so far so good but today was a little rough bc my kid was waking up every 2 hours last night coughing :(

    So far I'm agreeing with all of you. Kinda exactly how my thoughts ate playing out


    And it wouldn't surprise me at all if the government is behind this. I haven't read this anywhere but this is my thinking. The UN has been trying to get America to pass an Arms trade treaty. Ever since Uncle O took office they have been pressing us to consider and pass this Arms trade treaty, which would basically destroy the second amendment. He opposed in the first term because he knew supporting it and voicing support for it would be political suicide. So my thoughts are that for some unseen reason, mass shootings and murders with "scary guns" has become a weekly occurrence during his presidency, and the media is making the guns seem like the issue. In doing so the thoughts of Americans on guns is trying to be swayed against them. Mental illness has been the cause in all of these. Not suspicious, no one questions it. If a bunch of sane people started doing this I'm sure people would wonder about the motives behind it. Mental illness would be a good cover...now that his second term is Here, hours after his reelection he restarted negotiations with the UN about the Arms Treaty. Now that Americans have seen how "evil and unnecessary" guns are he is wanting bans, and wants to go ahead with this treaty.

    Not saying this is what's happening, but if someone was making a movie about this, or making a TV series like homeland or 24, this is exactly how it would play out

    Given Obamas upbringing in predominantly Muslim countries, not saying he's a Muslim, but he was raised around it, and his father was muslim and very anti american it would not surprise me at all if there is something going on.

    First black president, people would rally around him, you'd be racist not to vote for him, bush is leaving office, a lot of Americans are unhappy with republicans, promise hope and change, say your gonna give people all these things, increase government handouts, make peoples lively hood depend solely on you. Perfect reelection strategy. Fool proof.

    Who's changed the accessory belt on their Taco? Is it hard? Also, when did you change your transmission fluid? I've seen stuff about it being "100k fluid" but I'm not convinced.

    I'm about to go on two fairly long drives so I'm considering doing both this weekend.

    How hard was the belt change? I'd imagine the tranny fluid change was easy since most people drain it by mistake anyway. I'll just pretend I'm a retard and the steps should flow naturally.
