Yeah, I feel like Avengers: Endgame was an ending for the MCU. I’m not complaining, because a good story needs to have an ending, but I’m also not motivated to see superhero movies coming out after Endgame (at least not cosmic-scale superhero movies - I’ll always have a soft spot for Peter Parker).
Believe me, I miss it too. I actually grew up in a big city, moved to a rural area for work, and then had to move back to that same big city. Crowding, noise, smells, terrible commutes - all the bad stuff about city living that I just took for granted before bothers me constantly now. I fantasize about being back on my own land with my own house, my own pickup truck, my own trees, and no strangers. All the people I care about are in the big city, they refuse to leave, and ultimately being close to them is more important to me, but I really wish they were country folk.
Bunkers? Burn? The air will still be breathable and the temperature will still be within the livable range. Global warming is a big problem, but it isn’t going to turn the planet into an uninhabitable wasteland, just as it didn’t during the multiple times in the past when it happened naturally.
Maine is a state where almost half the households have guns. I don’t think opponents of the second amendment are going to find a lot of support there even after yesterday’s mass shooting.
That’s not an unreasonable reading of the text, but if you’re going to look at the Constitution that way, you’ll see that it doesn’t talk about abortion or gay marriage either. I’m in favor of abortion rights and gay marriage, and that’s why I don’t start “but the Constitution doesn’t literally say…” arguments with conservatives.
People advocating for gun control aren’t necessarily opponents of the 2nd amendment, but people talking about well-regulated militias usually are. What’s the point of bringing up that strange phrase unless you don’t think that the 2nd amendment’s right to bear arms applies to everyone regardless of membership in some sort of militia?
Isn’t that a national poll, as opposed to a poll of Maine residents? I’m talking specifically about Maine, not about the USA as a whole.
Or “oppose the second amendment”, as you propagandistically say, because you dont have facts on your side.
Generally people who quibble about the term “well-regulated militia” do specifically oppose the second amendment. But the constitution of Maine doesn’t have that ambiguity:
Every citizen has a right to keep and bear arms and this right shall never be questioned.
It makes sense if you read “I can only” as “I’m only allowed to”. The AI wants to write you a story about a snail, but it can only do that while obeying the letter of the law.
