You’re struggling because I didn’t actually do that. Other people had already commented on the far left angle and I didn’t have anything else to add. And when “the best publicly available information” is a single non-news magazine citing something as speculation with no credible news...

Oh, you’ve already handled that quite predictably from your end, along with a spew of new and old regurgitated bullshit that has already been refuted. I’ve already taken the measure of your “character” and found it to be sorely lacking. Thanks for almost single-handedly ruining this forum for...

No, but it’s a pretty solid 99% off the table. You sure about that? You seemed pretty eager to pin some more hypocrisy points on the right, enough to amplify the thinnest of evidence into a supposed escalating drumbeat of “truth”. That characterization doesn’t apply to me at all, but you’re...

Yes, let’s. To review what you said: The Vanity Fair article cited by Mosh only noted speculation that the shooter might be a groyper because of a single referenced meme. No credible news outlet reported on this theory because there was barely any substance behind it at all, but salivating...

The “Mastered For ITunes” version and the HD version available from Metallica’s website also address this problem, though it’s still a harsh-sounding album.

Nostradamus, baby. It’s got some bloat, but as a whole piece it’s a great album IMO, and there are some killer individual tracks too, like “Future Of Mankind”, “Persecution”, the title track, and more. I also tossed a vote to Death Magnetic, since I like it more than the other remaining options.

That’s funny, I think “Blood On The World’s Hands” is by far the best song on The X Factor, and I don’t like the album in general.

Source? I haven’t seen anything of the kind yet.

Taco Bell qualifies as food?! LOL.

Though Taco Bell is currently selling Double Decker tacos on their retro menu, they’re not available most of the time. But don’t fret, you can customize your way to one pretty easily from their standard menu: Double Stacked Taco: - NO fiesta strips - NO nacho cheese - ADD beans If you’re...

We’ve had gun-toting psychos from both ends of the political spectrum perpetrating these shootings in recent times. Neither outcome would surprise me at this point. It’s still not as bad as the 1960s yet, and the country survived that period, so we’ll eventually come out of this OK. But it...

Since this is the USA Politics thread, may I offer up MSNBC…?

Straddles the line between power and trad. Tasty guitars, strong vocals.

Don’t sleep on Powerwolf’s Lupus Dei. This does not sound like the poppier power metal they’ve been making in recent years — it’s excellent trad metal with ripping dual guitars and lots of pipe organ for a heavily gothic vibe. Seriously, go in with no prejudice or assumptions and I can’t...

Yes, the militarization of the police, and the shift in thinking from “protect and serve” to “make sure the cop comes home uninjured at all costs” really polluted policing in the U.S.
