    Good idea by the attorney to get out in front of this and head off a hate crime.

    When you have an armed populace, you need armed enforcement. Why would anyone from a meter maid on up feel safe? Why wouldn't they be entitled to personal protection?

    I suspect we will see some loud voices emerge after they are done burying their kids. Wonder if the GOP microphones will go after them like they did after parkland and sandy hook, since trivializing it is pretty on brand at this point.

    People like candy and cheeseburgers and sodas, just like people like guns and alcohol and cigarettes. Even if they can afford healthier options, unless those options cease to exist people will still make that choice because freedom (or convenience, or gluttony, or income etc). The picture is...

    I think it is an interesting comparison. Both are societal detriments, but money has a stake in nothing changing. Wouldn’t telling someone what they can eat, or forcing them to exercise be seen as an over reach and infringement? Wouldn’t trying to divert farm bill funds from corn crops and...

    What is rocket science is why cops let crimes happen, when they are present and able to intervene, I guess. Budget renewal season? Get some more boots on the ground not intervening in crime?

    Seems like in this very thread we are discussing *checks notes* a shooting that the cops were present for and failed to intervene in. Are they supposed to stop an in progress drive by now?

    So wait, to cops, getting arrested for looking like someone while innocent isn't a big deal if there is no conviction?

    I haven't given their newest album a spin yet, but do have Lost In a Dream and A Deeper Understanding on vinyl, both of which I think are pretty good.
