The most ignorant people are gun nuts who equate having a gun as having a chance at survival, this is nonsense based on lies gun companies feed you this a GOOD PERSON WITH A GUN SAVES INNOCENT PEOPLE. You live in some make believe world where everyone is carrying a gun on their hip to protect their lives. The real danger with many guns end up as a cost on small children, family members, and other members of their community thru rage and carelessness rather than danger caused by a thug.

Again it all goes back to fear, you think you live in a world where this granny is constantly looking around for someone to attack her so shes ready to point her gun at anyone who looks threatening to her and she will help all the innocent people who are attacked. How the hell is a granny going to differentiate in a gun fight who is right and who is wrong? OMG someone is coming near me, let me shoot and wound him first.

And how often does this Granny shoot an attacker scenario happen?

In 2012 Violence Policy Center released a fresh analysis of federal crime and health data that explores how often potential victims actually turned the tables. Parsing 2012 numbers, the center counted 259 justifiable gun-related homicides, or incidents in which authorities ruled that killings occurred in self-defense.

That's in a nation in which there are some 300 million firearms. In 2012, there were 1.2 million violent crimes, defined as murder, forcible rape, robbery and aggravated assault. Or, put another way, 1.2
million scenarios in which there was potential for someone to kill in self-defense.

BUT who cares about some #FAKENEWS stats from liberal research center. Just keep buying guns, look over your shoulders at every turn, pack more guns the older you get, they are out to GET YOU!!!

Someone with a gun doesn't have a better chance of survival. Granny with a gun probably has almost no chance just the same as when she has no gun if she is met with someone who wants to do her harm in a surprise ambush.

Do you want a good example of this? Look no further than American Sniper Chris Kyle. He and a friend are trained military vets with guns on their belts and had far more training than any of us can get. Both men were shot dead in a place where they both knew the killer would have access to a gun and has some PTSD issues. Neither even had a chance to draw their weapon with knowledge that it could be a dangerous situation.

There are more firearm death because the population of California is higher than most red states, but in terms of Firearm deaths per 100,000 people it is 43rd. The top 10 are.... yes... all RED STATES with loose gun laws.

Many of the illegal guns used in strict gun law areas were imported by criminals who got them legally in states without strict rules such as Indiana and Tennessee. What does that prove? That proves gun control actually WORKS. Criminals have to go else where for guns, had neighboring states had gun control there what would happen...?!

Gun control is one issue. the other main issue is to get rid of the fear culture that exist in white America. I dont think people buy a gun first and then fear for their safety afterwards, its usually this fear first that cause someone to buy guns.

The idea that someone can break in and kill and rape your family at any time, the idea that colored people are a menace and you need a weapon to protect yourselves against them.

Once we get rid of the fear culture then many will warm to gun control.

it will be higher than 1200 if there can be more usage of ETH, more than just crypto kitties.... you need something to draw new users into buying ETH, thats how the price will increase in the long run.

White paper is a vision of their plan, how they execute is another matter, also how the market reacts to them is a totally different beast, still good to take a look at it.

Expect nothing, most startups are developing something new and most will never see true usage, just getting it to support some cool projects and hope for a little bit of profit.

Im pretty sure like many adult stores and sites you can be billed from a company name rather than PORNHUB on the credit card bill... seems unnecessary to use crypto for these things especially since it probably already has a pretty safe merchant mechanism...

So this is like daily fantasy sports but with crypto coins as the entrance fee and prize?

For anyone who thinks death penalty should exist but only with good investigation then you should check out a movie called The Life of David Gale to see how hard it can be. Also read up on a lot of US based appeal cases where someone who was innocent can get wrapped into a guilty plea or charge.

I dont see a need for it as I dont see it as a deterrent for criminals to commit the same crime in the future.

true believers will tell people who say why so expensive ... you dont need to buy a whole btc to use it, you can but a portion of it...

Take a good look at the coin and the company/product behind it, some of these coins can be 0.00 if you think it has some future then keep it and see, probably wont be too much worse than now!

In the US most people use more government paid benefits than the taxes they pay each year... the majority of people do not know nor believe this lol

+1 on his advice, i dealt with some really annoying people, not to the level of bullies but when you ignore them they have this pathetic look in their eyes that they have been hurt.

In the work place no one should be able to physically retaliate against you if they do so report them ASAP to the HR or even the police. When they know they cant get away from the stupid school yard stuff they will usually stop or sulk in the corner

Obama is 100% better speaker than Trump... Just go back to some of his talks, very inspiring.

Donald Trump talks like a layman, his speaking ability is horrible, he always has to ad lip a bit to his speeches...

take out your initial amount or an amount that you feel you need to feel financial secure and continue to trade the rest, its essentially a free roll at this point and crypto is just at the starting point!

Keep on rolling it forward!

Do you stream these betting sessions? Maybe you should just do a weekly betting session and chat with the community during it, would be fun to watch

Good for you if you quit Facebook! Its almost a form of addiction. I stopped using it years ago when I discovered how it can hurt you in the work place.

Your coworkers and bosses often friend you and look over your profile and postings, heard many mocking conversations because of postings or how one of your friends looked in the pictures or where someone went over the weekend.

Also it makes you feel like your life is boring when you have multiple pages of friends activities over weekends or holidays LOL
