Looks like Obomber is going to use today's shooting to create a constitutional crisis
Cobb replied to joeblast's topic in The Rabbit Hole
when i was in first grade in china (in the 90s), my teacher told me some asocial guy went to some elementary schools and shot kids with a hunting rifle (yes it used to legal to own rifle in china, so ppl could shoot up birds for fun), which at the time really scared a cr*p out of me. i remember feeling afraid that someone would shoot me from the back while i walked on streets. but i never heard of any more shooting at kids in china, know why? they banned the guns. -
how did figure that china mandates religion in constitution?

when i grew up in china, swastika was just so normal and everyday that i couldn't even understand why ppl find it uncomfortable. you see it in so many buddhist temples. i knew nazi's deeds but i never thought of the germans when i see the buddhist symbol. similarly when i watch wwii movies, the nazi's emblem never reminds me of buddhism either. i just couldn't believe how one could put the two together (but now i heard in the 30s some zen masters in japan came up with some buddhist theories to explain that killing enemies is a beautiful and serene thing to do, and the japanese in wwii did commit some similar acts like germans)
