    The lockstep of minority voters for the Democrats offends me. Sanders would have done more good for them, imo. The DNC undercutting of Sanders goes back to the beginning of the campaign. You might remember, when he couldn't get a bit of respect from the media and the Democrats were basically mocking him... all to ensure Hillary got the support...

    I don't remember going through any mirrors, so how did I get to a world where the Republican candidate is the sucking up to the Russian dictator and the Democrats are holding the line?

    Overconfidence has sunk Democratic candidates before... Gore was assumed to have an easy path to the white house. I remember mockery of his opponent along the lines of "Nobody sane or intelligent would vote for him!"

    For a long time... I keep expecting him to say "Gotcha!"

    This really bugs me. I do not understand the reasoning, although he apparently claimed he had IEDs. Ordinarily, as I understand it, Such standoffs are maintained as long as possible. I do not understand this. Particularly because I believe bomb disposal robots can often be fitted with a 12 ga shotgun to "disrupt" explosive devises. THis would have seemed adequate to me... A bomb???

    I am only One NRA member, but I have raised the issue. Murder. Today I read that the officers stood around talking to the shooter and left him without medical attention. Somehow I doubt they will be adequately prosecuted.

    I recently learned that my grandfather fought a bull in Spain during the 50s. "Things that make you go Hmm..."

    This week I have been at my job a year. I will be offered different insurance, so that is goint to require research, but... New job role training last week. Today I took my WA state insurance agent exam. I was worried, but scored a LOT better than I feared, and so now I will make more money at work...

    I just read one of her former staffers was given limited immunity... That surprises me. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/crime/justice-dept-granted-limited-immunity-to-staffer-in-clinton-email-probe/2016/06/07/a1a46d2c-2ce8-11e6-b5db-e9bc84a2c8e4_story.html

    I knew someone who DID rip off a drug house. Unfortunately for him, the police were going in the front door while he was going in the back. He was seriously offended that he lost his gun rights... I am glad he was no more than an acquaintance.

    likelihood of jury nullification? High.

    there is, iirc, a book arguing he is worth significantly less than one billion dollars, in reality.

    the latter one seems like justifiable homicide in my book.

    iirc they kill more people than any other African wildlife. Pharoah could easily have been bitten in half.

    but only a couple inches wide. Now a 30 footer, would be a true apex monster. It even injects poison so it can eat things too big for itself normally...

    Platinum would probably be really hard on rifling, and unless you want a catalytic converter, I don't see a point... silver is expensive enough...

    And if you support gun rights, a Hillary selected Supreme Court with 1-4 Justices of had choice is terrifying. This election sucks.

    Not a gun per se but it has a gun. 12 kilogram remote ground drone with a Glock 26. http://www.defensenews.com/story/defense/international/mideast-africa/2016/05/08/introducing-israeli-12-kilo-killer-robot/83970684/
