@swilliamsjourno @DashDobrofsky I don't know that either party is proposing anything that will solve the issue, but regardless, it is a political issue, and both parties are quite properly politicizing it, which doesn't tell us that they're equally good or bad, or which one is better, just that it is political. — PolitiTweet.org

@DashDobrofsky Both of those are politicizing the shooting. — PolitiTweet.org

Fewer people would be stopped from entering by the initiation of force by the state, thereby increasing both the liberty they are able to exercise and your liberty, e.g. your ability to befriend, contract with, date, or otherwise interact with them. — PolitiTweet.org

The presidency already has a minimum age requirement, 35. This would be an opportune moment to impose an upper age requirement by Constitutional amendment. If you're 75 or over, you can't run. Sorry, Biden and Trump 2024. — PolitiTweet.org

.@DavidColeACLU on free speech:"It extends to the powerful & hateful as well as the marginalized. That’s the thing about rights. They apply universally. But if you are in the minority, whatever side you're on, there is no more important safeguard. None." https://t.co/R3yOjfBwQN — PolitiTweet.org

@chrisswartout Like, it's very interesting that I objected to sadistic bullies and your mind went to civility, as if that was the real subject. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@chrisswartout Refraining from inflicting sadistic cruelty on others is one of those *more important than civility* virtues. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@chrisswartout You can't invoke a terrible tragedy as proof of the stakes of what people said about the tragedy after it happened. The words won't change the tragedy. In that sense the stakes are quite low. — PolitiTweet.org

@bendreyfuss Also Spain is just giving you a tiny tapa, of course they're more likely to offer. The leg of ham is sitting right there in a counter brace, why not hand out a thin slice? Whereas to make a whole pot of swedish meatballs or catch a whole herring... — PolitiTweet.org

@bendreyfuss What if you offer a drink and I say "sure I'll have a nutritious smoothie"? I'm just trying to wrangle as much protein from my visit without technically offending local custom. — PolitiTweet.org

Question about real estate markets. What explains sustained periods where houses go for above asking price with buyers outbidding one another, as opposed to the alternative scenario where prices just rise with buyers occasionally taking a best offer below asking? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter's cocktail newsletter is excellent and you should all subscribe, even though he underestimates the tactile pleasure, user control and post-drink benefits of the salt-rimmed margarita. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey It is supposed to prove that the decoupling I have observed in comedy hasn't to my knowledge happened in Academy Award winning films. There are divergences of course but they are neither as stark or consistent as in comedy. — PolitiTweet.org

@NathanJRobinson @benshapiro @Timcast Nathan, if someone showed you a gruesome photo that ostensibly cuts against a position you hold, would that tend to change your mind or entrench you in your position more deeply? — PolitiTweet.org

We keep going through this worst of both worlds cycle where the total number of guns is associated with more shootings so there's a push for gun control so lots of people buy guns to get 'em while they're still legal but then the gun control doesn't actually pass. — PolitiTweet.org

I would find it hugely stressful to have so many guns that I could never be sure my kid or one of his friends or a burglar hadn't just wandered off with one. — PolitiTweet.org

A thread of people whose homes are cluttered with guns in a way that seems very inconvenient, covering floors and walkways and in one case placed around the bathtub, which will make it hard to get out. — PolitiTweet.org
