I decided to look again for new of this issue. Here are the results of my google search. So what does this tell us about the news media? This is news. Local authorities refused to prosecute. DOJ decided otherwise. FBI came into the house brandishing weapons to cart him off in front of his wife and family. And is acquitted. Is not this news? Apparently not news the big guys want us to know about. mspart

Oh shoots. mspart

Just watched the Yazdani match. Wow! Yaz woke up and took it to him. mspart

How about we go after the bad guys that use guns and let their sentences grow bigger because of it? Mandatory 5 year extension for use of a gun in a crime. If liberals were serious about preventing gun violence, this or something similar would be part of their tactics. But it is not. Therefore, they are not serious about reducing gun violence. Here in WA and in King County, use of gun in a crime is a sentenceable offense. It is usually the first thing plea bargained out or not prosecuted at all. Now that is logic well used. mspart

I know the relationship. You want an air conditioner where bananas grow. mspart

Pinned his way through the tourney. So those 25 losses was not an indication. mspart

Ishiguro beat Amine 2-0, he beat Zahid 11-0. Now Amine and Zahid are in the bronze medal match. Knowing that, I would say this might be a struggle for Zahid. Perhaps it was a style thing. mspart

Yeah, I hear you. Cops cannot chase bad guys by state law. They can steal a car in front of the cops and they cannot give chase because that is not a violent offense. I kid you not. As a result, car thefts are at an all time high and so are the amount of people not stopping for cops when they put their lights on. Police will not arrest shoplifters if they have less than $125 of stuff. Woke prosecutors let them go. Overall crime is up and violent crime is up because due to defunding police and continuing the firing of police and other folks for not having taken the jab, there is not enough personnel to do much anymore. And with the lack of prosecution, there is no point anymore. They hammer on law abiding gun owners regarding gun violence but do nothing about those that have and use them illegally. It is a crazy place for sure. And now the local King County (Seattle is within King County) homeless outfit wants only 12 Billion to solve homelessness. Billions have been spent already and the problem has only gotten worse. Tent cities are all over the place and homeless are passed out on the street in their fecal matter and other waste high on heroin or fentanyl. It is more merciful, for our local politicos, to allow this rather than get these people into treatment to resolve their addiction. Everything is backwards here. It is really a weird place and that happened in the last 20 years. Before that it was one of the most livable cities in the country. Not anymore. Liberals in Seattle and King County have successfully ruined the area for years to come in just a few short years. mspart

The Google failed me. mspart

And don't stand in front of the guy with the hammer. I can't even imagine that. He looked like he took a good swing, amazing Pelosi is not dead already. mspart

Gas went up another 10 cents a gallon. That is 20 cents a gallon in less than a week. And this is at the cheapest gas stations where I get gas. They are always way under the competition so they are feeling the wholesale difference. Gotta love that carbon tax. While everyone else's gas is going down in price, ours is going up. mspart

This is a really interesting one. Just incredible really. So smooth with this instrument. Notice the frets are very odd. mspart

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Second-Amendment Here is an interesting treatise on this topic. It states what the Founders thought about the topic and how the SCOTUS has interpreted it. Interesting fact, the first SCOTUS test was in 2008. I think it is endlessly fascinating how some folks deny the plain written language of the 2nd Amendment. However, the plain written language of the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc, is sacrosanct. In other words, the rights enumerated by the Bill of Rights are constitutional rights. No one would argue that the right to free speech is not a constitutional right. No one would argue that the right not to self incriminate is a constitutional right. Then why is it that owning a gun (bearing an arm) is not a constitutional right? mspart

Oh and the kid is off the team if he does anything close to that again. I would have canned DeSanto, I have no patience for this kind of thing. mspart

I agree with whoever said the ref should be scrutinized and the coach should be shown the door. There is no excuse for allowing this behavior on the mat. mspart

Ha!! True! mspart

Interesting because I just read a flo article written 21 hours ago stating he and Snyder might meet up in the tourney. As far as the google knows, Cox is wrestling in Zagreb. mspart

I guess we have lots of questions. Here's to hoping we get answers. mspart

If I were a competitor, I'd not complain. mspart

Not really. Now Fox news is reporting it but non of the others. mspart

https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/253477/breaking-mark-houck-cleared-of-face-act-charges-in-rebuke-to-justice-department BREAKING: Mark Houck cleared of FACE Act charges in rebuke to Justice Department’s aggressive prosecution Pro-life activist Mark Houck was found not guilty Monday on federal assault charges stemming from a shoving incident outside a Philadelphia abortion clinic. ... After local authorities declined to press charges, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) stepped in, dispatching a team of FBI agents to arrest Houck at gunpoint in front of his terrified wife and children. ... U.S. District Judge Gerald Pappert himself raised the possibility that the case should never have been brought to trial, asking the prosecution Thursday whether the federal FACE Act didn’t “seem to be stretched a little thin here.” Interestingly, I found this on Google after seeing a Daily Caller email. On the google page, there is no CBS, NYT, WAPO, other alphabet networks, but there is entries by Washington examiner and other smaller local stations and other outlets. This is news. Why are the big folks so late with reporting. I'm sure they will get to it but no rush to get the scoop. Does this mean that these other outlets that are seemingly right leaning are wrong on this? Or are they correct on this? This is something used by liberals all the time. Well, its not in my news sources of choice so it must not be true or important enough to report on. Well, this is clearly a case of the latter. Doesn't fit the narrative they want to portray. If he was found guilty, they would have responded immediately no doubt. A man defending his son against this blowhard is not unreasonable. Jury agreed. Judge agreed. But DOJ did not. They are the only ones going after this guy and they lost spectacularly. mspart

I guess that's a way to look at it. The wrong way, but a way. mspart

Yes, you saw that correctly. He's co-holding onto a hammer with one hand and had a drink or can or something in the other. My advice would have been to ditch both and run out the door and let the cops handle DePape. But he didn't even appear to be rattled at all, and he's the one that called 911. Weird, very weird. mspart

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/assault rifle : any of various intermediate-range, magazine-fed military rifles (such as the AK-47) that can be set for automatic or semiautomatic fire also : a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle but is designed to allow only semiautomatic fire From the definition supplied in an earlier post. I'm confused by this definition. Is it an intermediate range weapon? Is it a weapon that has a magazine? Is it an AK-47? Is it one that can be set to automatic or semi automatic? The dictionary then uses a trick they are never to use, which is using the word or phrase in the definition. By this definition, the rifle I highlighted earlier would not be an assault rifle. It cannot be set to Automatic and certainly does not resemble an military rifle. Yet I have 30 round magazines for it. So I'm in the clear I guess. mspart

Are they too young to commit a felony and be sentenced as an adult? Are they too young to be an informed voter? Are they too young to drink? Are they too young to volunteer for the military? I agree that today's 18 year olds are not near as mature as they were 30 years ago or 20 years ago. But that doesn't mean the questions above are wrong to ask. mspart
