I don't watch many TV shows. so for me GOT is the best and the last 2 eps were insane!!

Walking Dead is second and i'm also enjoying the Netflix Scream TV series.

Never got into BB.

The West Wing is still my all time fav show. I just can't see anything topping it tbh.

I can never seem to split The West Wing and The Sopranos.

Good shout. The Sopranos just under for me but it's like choosing a fav kid.

 

[Jatz]

Anyone been watching Wimbledon?

The problem with trying to choose which one is better is that they are just such different shows. One is a political drama, the other a crime drama. Completely different so it's hard for me to judge one better than the other.

Loonerty have you watched the "Mr Robot Decoded" special? Tempted to watch but worried it will give too much away and ruin the show for me.

But but 32,000 gun deaths a year is no problem that taking away guns will fix.

Derp!

Or semi-Assault rifles. Why is that needed to defend yourself?

Because other people also have semi assualt rifles. Apparently they can't see the connection there.

please tell me thats not really their reasoning?

Morons. Complete and utter morons.

Still blindly can't see that taking away guns saves lives and have rubbish excuses that it makes them safer.... Well for over 30k it makes them dead. Derp!

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere or watched something that highlighted that many Americans do want gun control but it's many of the people in government who don't seem to want it. Idiocy.

Honestly though, if they do add in gun laws etc how will they even sort out people who have arms already? People will probably hide their guns and just say they never had one. It would only seem to work for people buying guns from that point onwards?

The gun laws that would be added in would restrict the purchase of new firearms. There is never going to be a complete ban on fire arms like we have.

The GOP's bribed by the NRA to the extreme (well they call it donation coz it's legal), so basically it's the Republicans selling American lives to get rich. They're the worst

The Dems aren't clean either but best chance for change would be for a majority for them Dems in both houses, even then I'm sorta doubtful. Just as well Trump's running and preparing himself to get thumped in November

I wanna make sure you guys know:
The Health Australia Party is incredibly misleading. Run by anti vaxers and homeopaths. They want "natural medicine" to be placed on an equal footing as pharmaceuticals.

Do not give these hacks a chance of getting a seat in the Senate. Please don't preference them and let more backwards thinking into the inner workings of the government.

They're listed first on the Senate paper. Pls don't vote for them in any way.

Interesting, I don't know too much about them as i generally hate politics.

But is it really that bad Loon? Just because something is alternative doesn't make it backwards.
