  1. Most obvious changes are the internet and population.
  2. Mass public slaughter of random people has increased dramatically this century.
  3. Murder rates are slightly up from 70 years ago but down from 50 years ago. It is not necessarily the numbers or the occurrence. It is the terrorism and the innocents. I agree with Husker that mental health plays a big role.
  4. Every member of the SCOTUS. Nancy Pelosi. Charles Grassley. Diane Feinstein. Mitch McConnell.
  5. Shuts off communication in Ukraine. Gives Erdogan ability to censure. Censures Allen, TX reports. He is a free speech absolutist. It is his show. Enjoy.
  6. Question asked. Question answered.
  7. People do not need more than a five round magazine, hand guns included. Rifles should be bolt action. Assault weapons should be turned into plows.
  8. I can't imagine the hellscape we would live in if C4 ( a bearable arm!!! ) were regulated like assault weapons. Just imagine if HS kids could go to Walmart and buy 100 lbs of it. I bet they could slay a lot of hawgs!!!!
  9. He is absolutely honest. Lots of WMDs are bearable and regulated so tightly they can't be owned for all intents and purposes. High grade explosives for example. Assault weapons are a counter-example of WMDs that are not well regulated.
  10. As recent history demonstrates, one packed court from an entirely different definition of reality.
  11. Your boys are doing great, i wish them continuing success.
  12. I feel for the loss of life in the bombing and the Afghans who were left behind. Abandoning the munitions was a military decision. I recall the Secretary saying it wouldn't be useful to the Afghans. It is done, Blinken should cough up the documents and then we can move on. Perhaps he has same counsel as Trump and was advised to delay, ignore and sue in a vain attempt to run out an imaginary clock.
  13. The decision to leave Afghanistan was not horrific.
  14. Reality: Unlike his predecessors, Biden had the spine to fall on that sword.
  15. I'd say they are equivalent because Dark Energy = (Dark Matter)c^2, but then I realized it is dark and therefore no light!
  16. It is legal to own guns in Australia. Mandatory military conscription in Switzerland is an integral part of gun ownership there. Is that what you want? Are you a veteran?
  17. Because our country and security situation is nothing at all like theirs. Thoughts and prayers it never morphs into that. Australia is a better model. Let's do that instead.
  18. This is his public face? Yikes.
  19. They had good experiences. Couple of his friends lived in the Springs and that was their regular training spot. One made a Junior World Team, won Fargo and loved wrestling. I recall another tweeting a covert picture of JB sitting against the wall and saying he couldn't believe he was waiting for the same practice as Jordan Burroughs. My son didn't make a world team, but he won Jr Nationals and they invited him to their final training camp. He stayed in the residence hall for more than a week. At least one of his partners won a medal, maybe two. He loved it.
  20. I see. True. I've aged out of active wrestling but my son and his friends spent a lot time at the OTC.
