Reply to comment by Dances-With-Snarfs in Man Accidentally Shoots Self with Concealed Weapon While Seeking Cover From Loud Noise by davy_jones_locket

Lol this clown just proved that he only adds to the danger by arming himself. He's the type of moron that would accidentally shoot an innocent person if there was a shootout.

If everyone is already armed, why do you feel the need to arm yourself? Someone else will be armed. But I guess when you are scared of your own shadow, you feel the need to arm yourself. It's a fucking sad existence.

Fact: he is statistically likely to end up being the only person to shoot him in his lifetime

Imagine living in a country where public mass murders occur and being willing to actually defend yourself/others from it. Now imagine that you shoot yourself out of incompetence and to top it off the same group of people who condemn these mass shooting existing mocks you for wanting to not be murdered in public. This guy shouldn’t be carrying a gun since he clearly can’t handle it, but don’t act like keeping a gun on you in the world’s most armed and one of its most dangerous countries is unreasonable.

What, because this employee didn't follow Volkswagens policy to assist law enforcement, and VW is owning up to the mistake made by the employee? Did you actually read the article? Or just assumed what was going on after reading the headline, which you also failed to understand?

I'm cis-het, not trans.

It is very relevant in dating but many things aren't disclosed up front in dating, singling out one as criminal doesn't make sense.

It is totally a non-issue in sports for those who went with puberty blockers and then transition. Later in life I think it's a minor issue after a few years but I'm not convinced either way.

How could it possibly be relevant in work?? I have never seen under the clothes of any coworker and if I did, so what? While I am obviously an American I have a much more European attitude about nudity.

Guns are carried “locked and loaded” all the time. It’s the preferred way to carry a firearm on the body of somebody who knows what they’re doing. Now carrying it loaded and not knowing what to do with it to the degree that the carrier shoots themself is careless and stupid.

VW said in the article that they have a policy for assisting law enforcement with these requests and it's worked successfully in the past. However this employee was not following policy and VW owned up to the mistake. That sounds to me like VW is on the side of giving help to find the child without insisting on reinstating subscription payments first.

I think many of the people in this thread are taking this the wrong way, and likely didn't actually read the article. Seems common in this sub.
