Hot Fruit & Reddit's Misogynist Rage.
Don't diss them b/c of whatever body hair or lady-ness or whatever diss them because ... Jesus Christ. Like, fucking Christ. Are you guys fucking serious? This is nothing but the worst, there is nothing of value happening here. There's nothing more trite, self-important and annoying than an 'artistic' hipster from Olympia. This is Lena Dunham levels of gag worthy.

How a Day Like Today Happens.
@53 Yeah, that guy attacked seven people with a knife but how many of them died? Five? The title reads "Man with a Knife HURTS Seven" and there were seven people attacked so that would be .. none. None of them died.

How Else a Day Like Today Happens.
People need to stop claiming Goldy, or anyone else who chimes in in anyway on either side, is using this tragedy to gain political points or further an agenda. When things such as this happen it is our duty and in our best interest to reflect and meditate what the circumstances were that caused such an event whether they be individual, local, national, political, religious .. whatever. If we're not learning from these tragedies, what the hell are we doing?
With the killer dead we're left to answer not only the "Why?" but the "How?"
In this case the "How?" could be attributed to many things but for me, if Ian did suffer from mental illness, it's easy to point to slashed budgets for those with illness. If the system wasn't supporting these people it was, at the very least, keeping track of them and gave them a place to go and get reevaluated, checked in on if they were pulled in by police for minor disturbances.

I haven't read all of the comments yet but LOL @ 11 : You're a total moron if you don't think there isn't already a black market on guns or that it isn't already huge. This is apparent in US citizens being able to obtain guns via "loop hole" and illegal purchase as well as sale of illegal arms. While the Mexican drug cartels were still a hot button item multiple police sources were quoted as saying that many of the groups got their arms from US markets via legal and illegal means.
Guns are a tool of death. That is their sole purpose. The reason they offer 'protection' is because of the fact that they will cause you to die, when properly aimed, in no uncertain terms. They are the only thing that can kill two people in an instant and that can offer little to no warning before the victims are gunned down. Anyone caught in the crossfire or bearing witness to the attack can be taken out as well - all it takes is a steady hand and finger.

Concessions.

Or, you know, this movie is really vapid and self-referential and just doesn't make for a good review.

Gay Archie Character Gets His Own Series.
has there been an interracial relationship in the Archie universe yet? i remember seeing a cover of Archie kissing Valerie (from Josie and the Pussycats) but in all of my years of reading the books (fuck, 19 years. i always buy them when i'm sick) i've never seen an interracial couple or random non-white girl thrown in the mix.
