Can't wait for the usual crowd to show up and post about how no one should go to South Side because kids are killing people with fireworks.

A Pittsburgh cop left a bar in 2008 shitfaced, and pistolwhipped / shot a random guy on the street over some sort of perceived disrespect.

They're a state-sanctioned street gang that gets paid via your taxes.

This weather is straight fucked up, we really didn't have a winter.

 
I noticed that Robins were running around two weeks ago. They're very early.

Boomers fuckin' loovvvvveeee chains and Cranberry Township is chock full of them. It's like a concert just for boomers, where all their favorite brands are playing.

> No Skyline Chili.

Good, that shit sucks.

Ah, so like a Toby Keith concert

The Steelers and the Pirates both will be agitating for a new stadium within the next few years. As far as I'm concerned they can both fuck off to Albuquerque, there's nothing wrong with the existing stadiums.

Phoenix is White Flight, The City

Not really relevant.

The guy shouldn't be bringing a gun to the bar. Fuck's sake.
 
Booze and firearms do not mix under any circumstances.

Pittsburgh had a cop who couldn't stop shooting people and costing the city money through wrongful death lawsuits. He even left a bar completely shitfaced and pistolwhipped a random passerby and shot him over some sort of phantom disrespect, and no action was taken.

They finally got rid of him in 2021. 13 years after the incident in that story.

It's for the people who live and work down there.

If you were going to do that to begin with, what's the point of coming in here to bitch about parking?
 

Americans lose their fucking minds if they're not allowed to go portal to portal in their cars, and god forbid they have to walk a few blocks. No wonder we look the way we do.

Downtown's a square mile, you can park anywhere and walk to Target.

 

> Stop assuming things about me

 
I can only judge you by what you post, and I've judged that you are Mad About Parking.

It's funny how mad people get about having to pay to stick their car somewhere.
 
If parking were free all of downtown would be a parking lot.

The thing is that old houses in shitty locations are cheap. Once you start getting into desirable houses in desirable areas, Pittsburgh is just as expensive as anywhere else that isn't one of the big bubble cities.

Altoona is dying.

Sheetz had to build their technology center in Pittsburgh because they couldn't convince young people with an education to move to Altoona.

Sounds like we need to return Shenandoah to nature and relocate the residents. It's for the best.

Yes, that's what practicing your marksmanship is for, so you can more accurately kill.
 
You're more likely to blast the top of your own skull off with your gun than you are to defend yourself or overthrow a tyrannical government with it, so at least the problem will fix itself eventually.

"People kill with explosives so there's no point in doing anything to control gun use" is a ridiculous argument.
 
A gun's sole purpose is to kill, full stop.

America is a death cult. We love death, and all of our public policies are tilted towards creating more of it.
 
We've got levels of infant mortality in the deep south that would embarrass the third world that we can't do anything about, but we can put a gun in every teenager's hands no problem.

The second amendment was never intended to be a suicide pact, and that is essentially what it's become.
