    Liberals would rather have massive Latino immigration rather than leveling the playing field with African and Asian immigration, who are mostly following the legal path.

    Have you been looking to Europe lately, where they have exactly that?

    Do you REALLY think that's better?

    Well, there's two kinds of people who go to jail after shooting someone. One group considers the target worth it, even if they get caught, the other group doesn't think they'd get caught.

    I can't see either of that happen here.

    I'd have named it Commie-Con, but then again, there is already something sounding similar in California, and you can't really have something like that anywhere else in the US.

    Ok, what would be an original name for a comic con? Preferably one that still tells you it's a comic con.

    You really think that the average comic enthusiast doesn't know the difference? We're talking about people who notice the difference between two comic writers that do whatever they can to draw in the same style and squabble about whether this or that one is better or worse despite looking IDENTICAL to every sane person.

    You honestly believe these people wouldn't notice the difference? If, and only if, they actually give a fuck and don't just want to go to a con?

    Can't even shoot him, you'd get jailed. And he ain't worth a second of jail time, so he's safe.

    That's also the only reason he's still alive.

    Could we just replace that idiot with the water cooler in the hall. Not just because it's more humane, but simply because it knows more about, well, everything.

    Fire that guy. Or fire a gun at him, your choice. But get rid of him now.

    HUSH!

    Don't listen to him, lawmakers. It's just like you think it is, to block something from being accessed, just tell your ISPs to blackhole the DNS name. That's going to disallow all internet to the bad, bad content you hate, yes indeed. I swear.

    Those that have no idea how the internet works want to dictate how it should work.

    Hopefully it's also going to end as usual: Nobody gives a shit about their "regulations" and thing continue to run like they did.

    Westboro Baptists. Trolling since before it was cool.

    They're a nuisance only if you let them get to you. Just realize that they're pretty much the real life equivalent of internet trolls, if you ignore them they'll eventually start losing interest.

    In that case I'm confident you'll be able to explain why certain stars are only visible from Australia and others from Europe. Or why a plane flight from Paris to New York takes about 8 hours Johannesburg to Perth takes only 9 hours when it should take at the very least twice or thrice as long on a flat earth.

    So far nobody answered either question, so I'm really curious to hear the explanation.
