achance4cheese, Slammin’ 😎
FrankTheHealer, I fucking hate when publications use these terms.
Other ones that grind my gears:
‘Claps back’
‘Outraged’
‘Caused a Storm’
Like 9/10 when I see ‘outrage online’ used in a piece, it’s actually just like a handful of Twitter people complaining for the sake of complaining.
Also, what the fuck does clap back even mean.

OpenStars, 
Missouri just passed a law that will allow that.
Bc it’s Missouri, ofc it did.:-P
wise_pancake, How does that work?
OpenStars, I mean… it’s Missouri so… most of the time it does not.
Oh, you mean the law. Nobody knows actually - like, murder is still illegal, and I would guess violently assaulting someone still would be too. But don’t overthink it, they just wanted to sound tough by putting the words on paper, yet likely they have zero intentions to ever follow through.
Also, if tRump has taught me anything, it’s that consequences never apply to the people in charge of things:-(.
