That's some sweet ass violence, rocks flying at 100mph! Hope someone with kids lost an eye, you know, if s/he's one of the bad guys.

Party A should shut the fuck up and Party B should mind her own business. But they're Philadelphian anyway, so let them lose their souls.

I too am a member of AMNAGMOs, so liked by neither the dippy-hippy nor the coin-eyed corporatist. Their loss ....

What a bunch of assholes on the internet. And what big surprise! I thought Opie and Anthony fans would be much more moderate and considerate. So mean spirited ... dicks the lot of them.
There's a lot out there that's offensive. Rape is sacred but murder seems to get a pass. If I was forced into some sort of horrible Sophie's choice for myself or a family member between rape and murder I'd pick rape 7 days a week. Rape is terrible; murder is worse. It is crazily frequent and has horrendous ripple effects on everyone around it. You can book a seat on a murder mystery train and participate is jolly evening of sleuthing. Could you imagine the reaction if the host said "someone on this train has been raped, and one of you is the rapist"? If every episode of every crime show started with the scene of a brutal rape? Why aren't we exorcised about murder culture, and revolted at murder humor, and fighting for a murder free society? And the dozen other horrible social ills that seem fair game for comedians? Pick your battles I guess ...

What gets me about this is everything was perfectly legal. It's legal to have guns lying around when preschooler are in the house. How can this possibly be, in a legal sense, just fuckin' fine? Kids can't legally pedal a tricycle w/o a helmet, but the state has nothing to say about strewing guns hither and yon then letting people still on their first set of teeth have at it?

Also they are temperamental baby birds. The post above is right that you can do everything just so and they still sometimes die - ungrateful little fuckers.
