I feel an incredible amount of contempt for people who watch a video of a violent confrontation, make up in their heads what they would totally have done if they were there, and start condemning the guy who was actually there and actually heroically stepped in for not doing that.
Why didn’t he kill him? He went on to kill more because this guy couldn’t bear to kill one of his own. There’s a giant asterisk next to this act of “heroism”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The "giant asterisk" is unwarranted. Ahmed El Ahmed had no prior experience with guns, let alone the specific type used by the shooter he disarmed.

For the record if Harris had 34 felonies, 3 failed marriages due to her cheating, didn’t know what a tariff was, blamed everything on immigrants, lied about FEMA assistance during a hurricane, admired Hitler, and was running against Mitt Romney, I would GLADLY vote for Romney.

if you make new stuff you won't enrage any fanbases because they won't exist yet
Studios are assembling superfan focus groups to assess various materials for a franchise project to avoid social media backlash.
“They will just tell us, ‘If you do that, fans are going to retaliate’ … If it’s early enough & the movie isn’t finished yet, we can make those kinds of changes.”

At the end of an exam by my proctologist he reaches into his pocket for a pen to write a prescription. Instead of a pen, he's got a rectal thermometer in his hand. "Damn it," he growls, "some asshole has my pen!"

But what can be more manly than to pick one's path and goals and pursue them with resolve and determination, regardless of if one's fellow man shares them?
Virtus, in the Roman sense, can be demonstrated in more places than the farm or the battlefield.

In his *own telling* of all his troubles, he spends his life being "set up" by his enemies and chronically disappointed by terrible, incompetent underlings he was fooled into hiring by terrible, incompetent advisors. Sounds like a long way of saying "I shouldn't be president."

Are you sure you are registered to vote?
Seriously. Are you sure of that?
Check. It takes 30 seconds and can save you so much trouble when it's time to vote.
Share it with your network because someone you know isn't registered, and they think they are.
