Saturday Link Love: Wonder Woman, Gun Control, Portland, and Kathy Griffin

Saturday Link Love is a feature where I collect and post links to various articles I’ve come upon over the past week. Feel free to share any interesting articles you’ve come along as well! The more the merrier.

“Wonder Woman” Succeeds By Being More Than Anyone Could Have Expected, on Tom + Lorenzo—“We were pleasantly surprised to see that Diana’s sexuality was lightly touched upon and not remotely lingered over.”

What Trump Doesn’t Understand About Gun Control in Great Britain, on The Atlantic—“In only one of all the completed and attempted Islamic terrorist atrocities in the U.K. since 9/11 did the killers even carry a single gun: a 90-year-old Dutch revolver so battered that they never tried to use it.”

Ted Wheeler, The Portland Police Bureau and White Supremacists all teamed up to assault the people of Portland… They all need to answer for it, on Medium—“The rally had “security” which was made up of “proud boys” militia members, oath keepers and III%’s. For those who don’t know, that is basically a nice way of saying that white supremacists were the ones securing their rally.”

You Said This Was What You Wanted, on Tiffany Quay Tyson—“These people have complained about how no one can take a joke anymore. Well Kathy Griffin is a comedian. She made a joke. It wasn’t funny. It was politically incorrect and offensive, but that’s exactly what a lot of people claim to want.”
