  1. Regarding the new “suggestion that an executive agency propose a law, to then go to Congress” involving the death penalty: Ummm...the vast majority of these shooters die while committing these atrocities. Potential murderers are aware and accept death as a consequence. I mean, most people would assume the death penalty was already the punishment for these acts.
  2. Of course they CAN be taxed, but there is a line at which the tax becomes infringement. ETA: There already is a separate additional federal tax on firearms/ammo sales. It’s the “tax the F out of them” that becomes an issue at some point. Where the line is, who knows?

  4. I mean, first of all, Chicago’s murder rate, per capita, in 2018 ranked 25th. Also, I don’t believe that the killers in Chicago recently left racist, xenophobic manifestos which mirrored the rhetoric of a significant political faction of the country. There was a drive by in Cedar Park last night, yet NOTHING on CNN...no shit.
  5. Basically all rights can be regulated but not prohibited, so that’s not a distinction. I’m bailing on this now though before I end up getting a bunch of green rep from posters I generally loathe.
  6. The answer is that your FB friend is a dumb motherfucker.
  7. Look man, I’m on “your side”, but you can’t use a heavy tax to make an end run around the Constitution. “Poll tax out front should have told ya.”
  8. That and it ignores the whole “racists love trump” concept that is, in and of itself, telling.
  9. True, but generally, cartels prefer to drag their murder/violent activities back into Juarez, instead of anywhere on the US side. It’s unnecessary risk for them, regardless of any leadership vacuum (which is definitely a thing).
  10. Wait. In this, the AOC thread, you make a post that consists of zero content other than a tweet about someone else getting a divorce? Ok. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Yes, because currently, you can meme your way into office at any level.
  12. Did that article mention ANYTHING that could be construed as some basis for calling Cummings a racist? I didn’t see it, but I must be wrong because if I’m right, that would mean that EMAW made some bullshit non-responsive troll post that added nothing to the discussion. Surely that can’t be the case.
  13. Wait. Next you’re going to tell me that Donald Sterling was racist too?!?!
  14. Lol. In this city, the answer is always “wrecking ball”.
  15. Yeah, the lifting of the zoning restriction of a maximum (3?) stories for buildings in WC, just ruined that shit beyond recognition.
  16. Really? The ENTIRE dossier was PROVEN false? I’m going to need a link or a cite for that.
  17. I’ll always remember that place as “Pronto Market”.
  18. I didn’t read the entire lawsuit, but were the words “because he’s under audit” ever used? I didn’t see them.
  19. Just buy ghee. Doesn’t have to be refrigerated, lasts forever at room temp after opening, AND it doesn’t burn as easy, because it’s clarified.
  20. John Brotherton says you are wrong, but it’s ok. Sammiches defy rules.
  21. Best use I’ve found for “lean brisket”. I believe the cheese blend here is a little white cheddar, some Muenster and Gruyere.
  22. They aren’t closing because of a lack of customers/sales.
  23. “Want” is the wrong verb completely. The man has zero feels about any of this. He will, much to the chagrin of lots of people, rely on the DOJ memo and refuse to answer questions outside of that scope. He will tell Congress that until they go get a controverting judicial opinion, he will take his guidance from the DOJ opinion/assertion. Then, like with everything else, the house/Pelosi will say “aw shucks...contempt of Congress and stuff”...and then go away to see what their next “big play” is.
  24. The scene when Markiese just buckled at the knees TWICE for no reason...with JB saying, as it’s happening, “you hurt?”, as he nudged him back out on the field, was fucking gross.
