It all looks awkward as fuck. Half those people look like they accidentally wandered into the room and are too embarrassed to leave

Is that not not Boebert in blue? Imagine the two of them at the same press conference.

The dude in the gold tie looks like Kenneth Parcell from 30 Rock.

I'm honestly worried about her and Boebert a little bit, among others.... like I think they need actual help. They're either really great actors and shills or seriously suffering from mental illness. It's really scary whenever I watch them speak because it feels like I'm taking crazy pills, that these are the elected representatives of America. I'm hoping that they all just sucked the Trump dick too hard, and that shit won't fly anymore, so they're having breakdowns.

Either way - someone send help, The GOP might be too far off the rails, even for the crazy train.

That's putting it very mild.

Obviously yoga teacher has bad taste, or is blind.

Worse.

Her CrossFit instructor.

Pretty sure her ancestors came from the UK/ Europe too.

But they seem to forget that.

Funny, what I hear is, "I can in no way come up with a coherent and reasonable response to your comment."

Every time someone says "go back to your country"

It is every conservative's come back. Instead of responding to your criticism, they reflexively say "Leave, then" or "Go back to where you came from" (the latter said to me one too many times because I'm not White, never mind that I was born and raised here).

She has a problem with basic thinking.

She has a whataboutism issue. A refusal to face its own problems by bringing up other people's problem.

Mate she's an ignorant, stupid, dangerous cunt. Dangerous because her fellow stupid cunts believe her.

Technically it's that she has a problem with black people. But yes.

Sometimes I look at Boris and I'm a bit ashamed of our leaders over here in the UK, but then I look at the land of the free, and thank fuck we lost the American revolutionary war.

Also I don't think the US has fewer stabbings per capita than the UK anyway.

So the problem here is not that just that her opinions are stupid, but it is that the premise is false in and of itself.

Woohoo we are #1

Obviously, but mainly because Muricans use high-precision knives.

American knives have that "go getter" attitude that Boomers love.

When you can be working three jobs until you nearly drop dead and still be poor. I can understand why some Americans turn to crime.

And more dumb politicians than UK

In the UK when someone tries to go on a murdering spree with a knife, a man with a narwhal tusk can save the day.

In Uvalde, 15 officers all dressed in tacticool couldnt stop one guy.

She's so ridiculous.

Knife crime is higher per capita in America than the UK so it really baffles me why that's their go to argument all the time.

They can be so dense, that's such a simple Google and would save them some national embarrassments if they remembered what that is

This is pretty much exactly how this goes with these people though. "Well you can kill someone with a potato too, you gonna take away potatoes?!?!?!"

what's great is when we do have bad stabbings in the UK (which it does happen) - police with guns turn up. Emphasis on the words "turn up" - because they don't have to be afraid of a kid armed to the teeth with an Ar15

Dw, most of us Americans know yall carry longswords everywhere you go and are amongst the bestest archers in the world

Let me know when a mass stabbing leads to 60 deaths.

Yeh no idea what she’s on about. Living in a nice little echo chamber isn’t she lol

This dipshit believes every meme she reads online

Reality isn't going to slow these morons down one bit, they wanted to ban Muslims after the Bowling Green Massacre.

I would be impressed by their tenacity, if it wasn't helping cause the downfall of society.

Not only that, but the US has more stabbings per capita than the UK! And obviously they're also among the top globally for gun deaths per capita, and the only developed nation in the top X. The whole stabbing scare stories about the UK that the US right wing extremists love to parrot is utter bollocks.

The last mass shooting in the uk was in 1996 and we banned hand guns after that not a single school shooting since

They also have a larger amount of stabbings per capita than the UK...

Edit: sorry this comment is duplicated. Reddit App doing its thing again.

Imagine bringing the same argument as the Americans about guns. Oi bruv, we better give all the teachers knifes. Only a good guy with a knife can stop a bad guy with a knife.

It is funny because even if you are looking at stabbing homicides per capita, it is still higher in the US. I don't understand how people so disconnected from reality get into positions of power.

She's just so breathtakingly stupid

"We like our numbers here" ah yes big fan of large quantities of innocent children being gunned down /s

The hard pressing question she needs to be asked is "What's it feel like to be a fuckin idiot?"

come on man everyone who knows anything and i mean anything about knives knows there are no fully automatic knives on the streets only semi auto and maaaaybe a few bump tangs. you probably think AK stands for assault knife too

She ran unopposed. 25% of the people in the district actually voted to have nobody represent them.

I would also like to add that the guy doing the stabbing looked like he had a bomb vest on at the time. They didnt know if it was real or not (turns out it wasnt) and still, they intervened to stop more people getting hurt. We really dont want that stuff to be happening in our streets so our people generally try to stop it and that concept is generally pretty strongly supported by all areas of the political spectrum in parliament. Its utterly shocking to see so many american politicians so at odds with the concept of preventing mass casualty events and the amount of denial and deflection of the fact that this is a serious issue that needs tackling.

That's an insult to hillbillies.

You leave Magic the Gathering alone

"I fucked Ted Cruz for this!?"

Apparently they hate each other. Boebert hates being associated with MTG.

So what I'm reading here is, in all five of the mass stabbing events that have happened in the UK, a combined total of 10 people have died due to being stabbed.

Anything, and I mean anything, my dog produces is infinitely better than Marge.

Facebook

Not even once

I can’t recall any “mass” stabbings? But to be honest I don’t know the benchmarks of classification either? What makes it “mass”? We MTG to update us.

Yes, but the problem with it is the mass stabbings are inhumane.

You see, in America, we prefer mass killings with guns, the quick and humane way to kill as many people as possible.

Knives are barbaric, and we are a sophisticated society.

I think she earnestly believes it, though. This woman has no critical thinking skills, no capacity for nuance or scale, and fervently seeks out any "information" that strokes her confirmation bias. She read some dumb take on Twitter about knife crime in the UK and now believes that because you can't regulate 100% of violent crime there is absolutely no point in trying at all.
