    Idiocy has become so commonplace and sophisticated now, with technology (social media, in particular) being so widespread and accessible, that there's literally no more room at the inn when it comes to information brokering...or even simple civil discourse...

    ...used to be a time when a village only had ONE idiot...and that was his day job he had to train and be qualified to do...

    ...now all the idiots have left their villages and meet up in digital Idiotopia...

    If after these regular embarrassments he would just one time return and say, You know, guys, I really should have looked into that further, sorry about that - well, then I might have some trace amount of respect for him. But of course he doesn't.

    It's hard to believe that he's as stupid and careless in real life as he presents himself here, so perhaps he's playing some sort of game. He should know that any utter nonsense like this is going to be investigated by people with three or four firing synapses and access to google so I really don't know why he bothers, unless, as you say, he wants it to be true so it certainly must be true. Really, this is the most aerodynamic explanation so I guess we must conclude that his intellectual capabilities are sufficiently deficient to where he is dangerously gullible.

    Stay away from white vans, dude. I don't mean the Damn Daniel white Vans, you know, but white vans. Although the white Vans might actually work for you because their application is more straightforward than average, although velcro is another good option.

    gun control debate will soon be academic, as the ability to control disappears

    The ability to control will never disappear. But as we see with things like copy protection, there will be ways to get around it eventually. Then there are new way to control again... repeat

    There are so many different things to blame for this shooting and the NRA doesn't crack the top 5.

    I don't blame gun haters for seizing this opportunity though. Impressive turnout.

    Not this event. All past events cumulating to this point. And this is about kids and their future, not guns. Guns just happen to get in their way and they are taking this matter into their own hands. Sit back and watch.

    On foxnews mobile I can’t find a single article about these demonstrations.

    I’m sure it’s there. Might have to look harder.

    No I looked fairly extensively. There was an active link to watch it live though. Not a single article though from what I saw.
