Yes, they do die. But usually not before they accomplish at least part of their mission. So your tough talk is just tough talk. May as well be thoughts and prayers for all the good it does.

If only they had the decency to announce their plan in advance. But no, the dirty bastards keep sneaking around and taking advance of the element of surprise. Of course the only sensible thing is well armed sentries with military discipline and ready backup available at all vulnerable points. Like elementary schools and kindergartens and such. It should be easy. There are only about 115,000 schools in the US. And they are mostly closed on weekends so the personnel could be assigned to places of worship as well.

That is what you think the answer is? America is a strange society in some ways. And the strangest part is that you probably really believe that things could be improved by arranging some method of "dumping" the threat. Maybe you could explain just what you mean by "dumped", but I expect you won't.

Yes, but there are a lot of Looneys out there singing similar Toons. I'm hoping they are mostly the same type that would vote Trumpy, but who knows where this sort comes from? -
I plead guilty, I did not read more than the first paragraph or so. CNN definitely caters to an audience almost as much as FOX does. It's front page is mostly all Trump all of the time.

I gave up predicting US election results after Bush V Gore. I've come to realize that the margins are so small that it comes down to who is motivated enough to turn up at the voting booth. And now mail in balloting makes it even harder to guess. I've also come to the conclusion that people lie to pollsters quite often. And then there is the unknown effect of RFK junior. Like you, I don't think Trump can win this time. Especially in the face of anger coming from those offended by the overturning of Roe. But I am wrong more often that I am right. -
At one time children learned to hide under desks for air raids. Now they are being taught how to keep from bleeding out if shot. https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/25/health/gun-violence-stop-the-bleed-children-gupta/index.html

Much like Federal subsidies to small airports. Boondoggles.

There is only one week left in June. They always save the most consequential and controversial rules for the last week. -
This place is starting to look more and more like a bad day on my FB feed.

Ya don't say?

It is true that he increases the overall participation rate.

There is some truth there. But for me it just gets really tiresome. It’s not just the constant untruths, but the attitude that not always but often can be so disrespectful.

Occasionally I click on the option to view his posts. But not often because I feel so unclean afterwards.

Sometimes we call that "flaring".

Does Black Rock not have an “anti-woke” ETF for fools to “invest” in?

I'm just curious because I know that Joe's posistion on the issue of guns in society is and has been evolving. I can see where guns can be fun to play with and automatics could be even more so for many people.
-
Joe, I find myself needing to ask, do you own a weapon with a bump stock or similar device?

SCOTUS saw fit to overturn a decided right to privacy and freedom from state interference in a decision that is reverberating through the electoral system. Will the religious zealots on the court feel emboldened enough to overturn the First Amendment establishment of religion clause? Probably not, but if this case comes before them they will certainly find a way to chip away at it again.

If he did the death toll may well have been lower.

I've always been fond of the slightly more common diaphanous.

Well....that and the Vegas mass murderer.

SCOTUS, by the usual 6 to 3 margin overturns the ban on “bump stocks”. They did not even bother to invoke the 2nd amendment. https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/14/politics/supreme-court-bump-stocks/index.html
