   I was going by the documents I linked above, wasn’t aware of the 11-year-old dying. None of which changes my reasoning: you’re still appealing to emotion. Yes, it’s tragic, but there are many other things which cause hundreds more children to die and we don’t propose banning any of them. If you’re going to ban anything, ban the irresponsible adults who let him play with dangerous fireworks in the first place (police aren’t charging the mother, who was at the scene).

   How about the guy who shot 7 people dead and injured dozens more on the same day? Or 200 people shot and killed over the July 4 weekend alone in the US, all while the Supreme Court rolls back gun laws? You have nothing to say about that?

   Maybe, maybe not. He was following a city vehicle, doing the same speed. He might have just assumed the other guy knew the speed limit.

   The only thing I’m going to say here (bc tastes are so subjective) is that the new Nancy is introspective and very meta when it’s not being absurdist. That’s not to everyone’s liking, I get that, but it’s not really all that different from 1960s-70s Peanuts with Lucy, Linus and Charlie Brown philosophizing all the time. I grew up on that stuff which is probably why I much prefer Jaimes’ version to Gilchrist’s — whose work just seemed like so much maudlin pandering to me.

   Oops… didn’t mean to leave a “like” with this account. Sometimes I forget which alt I’m on — oh well, too late now
