Do you get ads at all?

1. Use Adblock, but don't talk about Adblock! Ads keep the internet going!

2. I'm at work, so my browser doesn't have Adblock.

Even at home I try to limit my Adblock use to just YouTube. I like to support my regularly visited sites (such as this one) by running ads wherever possible.

Most ads give money by clicks, not just by being shown - am I wrong?

True, for the most part. They know when you're blocking ads though, so it's nice to keep the numbers up. Besides, I did click on the dreamboats ad. Some of the targeted Google ads are quite useful, and on well designed sites like this one they're not distracting in any way.

As Tesco say - "Every little helps".

Sefko Causevic, a 70 years old Bosnian man on the reason why the people in his village Baljvine didn't take up arms against each other during two wars. Words that carry a lot of wisdom.

Yeah, this one is at a larger scale than it usually is too. Horrible.

I know you guys are anti-gun, but for some reason I feel, you don't support the guys, who didn't even wait for the body's to cool before starting to push their anti-gun agenda. We can argue later. This is first and foremost the time to grieve.

Well, I think it'd be good if a crazy person like this one couldn't go buy a gun, there'd be less shootings. I think it could possibly have negative short term effects, for reasons you'd point out. It'd be good in the long run though.

I agree that is insensitive...
However you guys should find a time to have a true talk about your guns situation, everyone forgets about it until a disaster happens and then it's too soon to talk about it until everyone forgets about it again.
