When my step dad died, it was a difficult process trying to legally sell his hand guns. You can’t buy guns from Walmart here either. That’s so strange that you can where you’re from.
Ban both
I never heard of Gene Tierney, I’ll look at your links. I can’t imagine what it was like for them to know that an ignorant fan caused their child to have such difficulties for the rest of their life. I got MMR booster a couple months ago and my husband is currently getting bloodwork done to see what his titre levels are too. There’s been a concerning uptick of cases where we live and the MMR booster is in shorter supply now so our doctor doesn’t want to give them out unnecessarily if he doesn’t need them.
Thank you very much for your well wishes, it was nice reading a kind comment (even if I am 2 months late).
They’re still suffering? Why does it matter about USA funding the military in regards to what I am saying.
At least 16000 dead this last year in Sudan… look it up, educate yourself. It’s really horrific what those human beings are enduring. I’m also not American yet there’s big protests disrupting our cities, so your country providing money to whoever doesn’t mean anything to me.
Why do you care about the Palestinians or Israelis or whatever but you aren’t putting the same effort into caring about the Sudanese suffering? It seems extremely hypocritical.
I guess my point is more that it’s hypocritical for all these big protests over this one war but they aren’t caring about this other war.
I want you to stop and think about something. The same indifference you are showing towards the Sudanese is the same indifference that a lot of us North Americans trying to live our life feel towards this stuff happening in Gaza.
You don’t “care” about them (unsure of wording, maybe “don’t think about them” is better?) the same way we don’t care (or can’t gather the mental energy to worry about what is happening across the ocean when we are struggling to take care of our families with high rent and high food prices and our own problems). We have our own life issues and while it’s no where near as awful as what’s happening to the people in either of those regions, it’s hard to gather energy to care beyond “oh that’s terrible” when you are struggling in your day to day life.
Stopping up a major bridge isn’t going to help anyone. If they want to make a difference perhaps going to the place the politicians are would work better. Screwing over normal citizens trying to live their life isn’t going to make any of them care more, it will have the opposite effect, people who are tired or don’t care won’t suddenly be sympathetic. They’ll get angry at the protestors for making their day even harder. Disrupt the politicians lives, they’re the ones who actually control this stuff.
That’s a really cute photo
I wish they cared this much about the people suffering in Sudan right now… Where’s the mass protests for those people…
This is amazing! I hope the research keeps going.
Thanks for taking the time to do that for us
I somehow knew you’d pull the “you’re a dog racist!” card. Hopefully your dogs never encounter a poorly controlled pittie. It’s a really horrible sight to see what they’re capable of.
Even if you don’t include farm workers urinating and defecating in the fields, or contamination from animal agriculture (a lot of North American farms don’t farm animals along side their crops anymore) A lot of it is naturally on the plants or the grains. There’s bacteria and viruses everywhere. I’m saying eliminating meat from your diet isn’t going to stop us all getting sick. Birds, rodents, and bats and insects all still shit on our produce.
You were acting like the problem was eating meat, I was simply pointing out that wouldn’t stop us getting sick from the food we eat.
You seem like one of those people who own pit bull types just to act self righteous about it. They are dangerous animals (and it’s our fault as humans for breeding that into them), there is more to them than just being “bull headed”.
So now this guy has to spend his time and money training his neighbours dog? How is that a solution. It’s not his dog. Also if the owners aren’t training the dog, training by anyone else won’t stick. It has to be consistent with everyone who is living with the dog.
You’re thinking of Staffordshire bull Terriers. American pit bulls can get to 70lbs. That’s nothing to sneeze at. Pit bulls are strong, tough dogs. They can pull the bumpers off of cars like it’s paper. It doesn’t matter if they aren’t the size of a Great Dane, one of even 45 lbs would have no issue getting through chicken wire and killing his birds. The fact his neighbours are letting the dog wander around unsupervised also likely means they aren’t going to bother training the dog properly, which is dangerous with any breed but especially one as strong as the pit bull types. This is a recipe for someone getting their face chewed off.
Judging by what you’ve written in comments about your neighbours, don’t talk to them. Call bylaw. It might take a couple times. If you approach them now and ask them to keep their dog leashed and they don’t listen, and THEN call bylaw, they will know it was you and possibly start targeting you for harassment because they know it was you who “rattled” on them. I’ve seen this happen. It’s not worth the drama and headache. This is sort of what bylaw is for. So neighbours aren’t at each other’s throats.
I mean, people suffer and die from getting sick from eating produce, or from wheat or rice. I’m sure other non-animal foods too. Wasn’t there deaths recently from eating cantaloupe… and we get salmonella from wheat products… and rice has that bacteria or something that can make you sick even if you cook it properly… There’s no escaping food making us sick, even if we all went vegan.
Good, now North America needs to do the same. Sick of touchscreens. Also make it so it’s harder to steal my car too thanks.
The Blob (80s version), The Thing, and House. The first two still hold up really well but the third one I rewatched as an adult and it was so stupid I was embarrassed I had been so terrified of it as a little kid.
Simplest answer is: if you are a vegan, do not own a cat. They are obligate carnivores. There is no healthy and humane way around the fact they need to process meat to be healthy. Don’t own a cat if you are vegan and don’t want to feed your pet other animals. If you don’t want to rehome your cat, you will need to live with the fact that you will need to sacrifice another living mammal in order to feed your pet.
Owning a pet while vegan is already kind of hypocritical…
