Escopeta posted I'm not aware of any direct employees or their agencies remitting reparations for their ineptitude (or maliciousness)
It's amazing what one can remain unaware of through a sheer unwillingness to look.

You just can't make this sh#t up. These pussies are requesting supplies when the reality is there's a Safeway 20 miles up the road and there is nothing, and I mean nothing, stopping them from making a beer run.

OK there might be one thing stopping them - the fact that they are nothing but a bunch of Drama Queens. It's f*#king hilarious how many stupid supports of them still send them stuff.
Though the boxes of dildos are priceless.

I love that Steven is still doing enough of his Colbert shtick that I can still pretend he's around.

I agree that all of us should be held to the same standards.
Part of those standards come with determining intent.

survival - the comments section is pure gold:
We’ll stop sending you dildos when you stop acting like dildos.
HDDJ - I totally agree. He's still Colbert.
I also no longer miss Jon. Trevor took full ownership of the show last week when he called out the stupid f*#king bitch on Fuax for questioning the tears that President Obama shed while talking/thinking of murdered children.
It's his show now, he owns it, and it's obvious why.

I still miss Jon. Trevor hasn't quite done it for me yet. He needs time to find his voice and his rhythm and I'm willing to give it to him but I'm not fully there yet.

I have a idea. How about we take feelings out of it. Maybe we should stop legislating how people should act and trying to orchestrate outcomes through over regulation. Maybe we could go back to rules and legislation that protects people's rights and allows everyone the freedom to go about their business as they see fit.
Does it matter whether your neighbor accidentally or purposefully burns your house down with fireworks? It does not. Rather than outlaw fireworks, how about we simply say it's against the law to burn down your neighbors house?

Um...because it wouldn't work?

That's a good point. Why ISN'T it illegal to burn down your neighbor's house? This is a gross oversight that needs immediate correction.

Yes. Intent definitely matters.

So you want to trample on my freedom to burn down your house?

Regarding intent, what is their intent now if confronted by law enforcement?
Are those guns still just for hunting up some snacks?
Armed occupation pretty much defines what their intent is if confronted by law enforcement.

If my neighbor launches a bottle rocket that accidentally lights my house on fire, I'm going to expect the dumbshit to be working three jobs in order to pay reparations make profuse apologies to me and my family.
If my neighbor piles a bunch of fireworks next to my house and lights them with the intention of causing damage to my property, I'm going to expect a significant amount of jail time, so that he won't be coming around again, or else I will be taking a bat to the motherf*#ker, if not a 357.
The difference is whether the damage was just stupid, or intentionally malicious. Neither diminishes responsibility; but it dictates the appropriate response.
If you and a buddy are trying to move a large object and his hand slips and it drops on your toe, breaking it, would you respond the same as if he intentionally dropped it on you to break your toe?
Walk into a 7-11 and take something without paying. Now do the same; but with a rifle on your back, solely for the purpose of protecting yourself from those who would stop you. Do you see a difference?

Why can't we just make it illegal to not all get along?
