Oohhh, because of Chali Kirk. I'm reading this wondering what Star Trek has to do with it.

Yeah, I thought the same thing at first.

"I didn't rip this shirt even a little bit, what is he talking about?"

XD I once got a very disapproving look from my grandmother for referring to the salt shaker as the "JFK edition", because it had one more hole than the pepper shaker.

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Grammy should has praised that!

[–] MutantTailThing@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

What if nobody shot JFK and his head just did that?

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Presidents heads do do that from time to time, I hear

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 hour ago

Why can’t the current one do that?

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

was he counting or not counting gang violence?

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 34 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

He died doing what he loved: downplaying gun violence.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 19 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

He died for a cause he loved and that's all anyone can hope for.

“I think it’s worth it. It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God given rights. That’s a prudent deal. It is rational,”

Sadly enough, broken people often create some of the best art. See Robin Williams, Van Gogh, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Heath Ledger, Richard Pryor, Plath, Johny Cash, Brian Wilson, Kurk Cobain etc. Also, please note that this is not a rule, there are always exceptions. I feel imho when you are going or have been through hell. You have a outlook or understanding of life, that often others dont.

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Robin Williams killed himself due to a medical condition rather than a physchological one, and Heath Ledger's death was accidental.

[–] OttoVonNoob@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 minutes ago

On a quick google Robin Williams suffered from depression and aniexty possibly due to his undiagnosed disease. Heath im not sure about im getting mixed google results sorry:X.
