This guy in Roseburg is not white. Neither was Elliott Rodger in Santa Barbara or the killer at Virginia Tech.
You've got a point about it all being public schools AFAIK. I'd like to see more attention to the role of SSRIs and similar drugs.

Roseburg
I've been there. Nice little place. The same questions arise. Where did he get the guns? How did he get the guns? Were they bought from FFL holder dealers and were background checks conducted? Let us remember that the level of homicide employing guns has been steadily falling in the US ...
I'm skeptical about this story, and not just because of "Loretta Lynn on the stereo". If, however, any of it is true, there's one more point nobody here has made -- not only is this guy a fool, he's writing about it, writing which his children will presumably one day read.

Embracing Herself
When my wife told me she wanted to open our marriage and take other lovers, she wasn’t rejecting me, she was embracing herself. When I understood that, I finally became a feminist. Says New York magazine’s Michael Sonmore. And so, As I write this, my children are asleep in their room, Loretta ...
Lyrics from The Cure's Friday I'm in Love:
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday
I'm in love
That was a hit in 1992. Ahead of the curve.

Strange Appetites
As I’m sure you all know, watching people eat online is now a thing in South Korea. “Whenever I’m a bit lonely it feels like I’m eating with someone else.”
"While there remains a single person, somewhere, who doesn't agree with them, jones and the rest of the Far Left will continue to believe the fiction that they are marginalised."
True enough, Rob, but even after that nature would still be oppressing them.

The Agonies of the Left, They Never End
Attention menfolk, you are faulty, inferior beings unless you agree with Laurie and Hugo. All this stuff. Hates capitalism. What Laurie likes. It isn’t your money so shut up. Critics can be mean. National columnist and BBC regular Owen Jones: a man silenced by t...
Good commenters you've got here. Impressed how many knew that Trotsky was himself big on state terror and gulags. Can only add that Guevara's main contribution in Cuba was as an executioner and that Castro probably sent him to Africa and Bolivia to get him out of the way. Hey, maybe that's the other Leon/Che connection -- the Latin American thing.

Fashion Statement
I was coming up the escalator on the “L” when I saw these two buttons on the back of some student’s backpack. I wonder what the correlation is between having only buttons of Che Guevara and Leon Trotsky on your personal effects and the likelihood of you defaulting on your student loans? Via Chi...
If Whitbread/Costa are this bad, then what baout Starbucks? They must be Hitler reincarnated.

The Pure Ones Will Guide Us
Novelist Joan Brady is outraged. So much so she felt compelled to share her indignation with Guardian readers: In 1993 I became the first woman to win the Whitbread Prize, and it changed my life. Money! One winner blew it all on a swimming pool for the family’s French villa. Not me. Mine paid o...
