Elizabeth II is dead

Personally, I’ve never heard of a reason to not have guns. I’m never impressed when people say “Well, this place doesn’t have shootings like America because they banned guns!” nowdays since it seems like other places are having a ton of violence anyway.

Most recently was that guy who killed 10 people with a knife. You can’t even say “well, it would have been worse if he had a gun!” because he still killed 10 people.

She seemed like a nice lady. Of course the very existence of monarchy is an abomination and a blight on human history, but she wasn’t too bad!

God bless her and her family. God save the king

this raises an narrative question who would be the reigning monarch during overwatches timeline would it be william or little george assuming no family memeber are killed during the omnic crisis.

Do you really think you can be the judge on what’s a blight on humanity? You’re some random on the overwatch forums, so what gives you that authority to judge humanity?

an unpaid holiday in this economy madness,

though for real i dont how the mourning holiday works with pay or people who work in food manafacturing etc

I could be wrong but I don’t think the Royal Family has much actual power in government

edit, though they seem like welfare queens

What is so “evil” about a constitutional monarchy? :thinking:

You do realise that a lot presidents have a lot more executive power compared to the UK’s limited monarchy right?

Now Duncan can take over the throne.

theoretically it does but it would be political suicide to actually act on them i think there was a film about such a thing where king charles denied an act of parliament because it would have invades peoples privacy, and in regards to welfare they get a budget from the government and in return the government gets all the profits from the crownlands

If you’re self-employed…

Who the f cares? absolutely overrated person.

No, I’m asking what I’m asked in my first post, and not what you’re trying to put in my mouth. What makes you think you can judge humanity? Answer that.

Edit: Also, I’m pretty sure you tried to jam words in my mouth because you can’t defend your position. And you can’t defend it because you’re likely parroting words you heard from some other talking head.

They can step in if something is super necessary and I believe they even have the power to remove them from their position if they wanted to, though I don’t think the Queen ever used this power towards anyone during her reign.

One could say the same of actors or athletes. Or nearly anyone famous, really.

I think that comparison doesn’t factor into political power.
