  1. I just read HB2744. Most of what it provides is already federal law. It's ban on giving rifles to 18-21 year olds is unconstitutional. And on its own terms it fails to ban AR-15s chambered in .223 or 5.56. So what idiot wrote this worthless law?
  2. Bans on 18 year olds getting guns are unconstitutional. Red flag laws that do not have due process protections are unconstitutional. Red flag laws that have meaningful due process protections are constitutional, yet are nearly never proposed as laws. Why is that?
  3. As I understand the law there were several moments during the confrontation where my use of potentially lethal force would have been lawful/justified. So, restraining somebody acting that way in a chokehold would be understandable. If they ended up passing away, but that was not the intention of the person who put him in a chokehold, then it's unfortunate but it happens. I am a large man and this guy was the most aggressive person I've ever encountered and he had a level of malice you don't find in your typical bar fights or whatever we've all been in. He was talking about rape and murder and he was big, and he was strong. I was happy there was a peaceful resolution but it was touch and go.
  4. nom nom nom
  5. In my eight years in DC there was one occasion where a clearly aggressive, violent and deranged person might have gotten shot if people had carry permits. The Metro was slow due to an outage and we were on the platform for about an hour. During that time period, this very muscular guy in his forties, homeless looking, kept following this group of college girls around loudly saying he wanted to show them a good time and they could either let him fuck them or he would rape them, right here right now. Of course somebody called the cops, but it took 20 minutes for them to show. I intervened when it was clear the girls were scared and he was physically herding them into a corner, and he completely lost it. He was screaming at me to mind my own business or he'd kill me and he got almost within arm's reach before I calmed him down to a low buzz by the time the cops arrived but it was scary and unpleasant. And even though there were dozens of people on the platform, I got no help whatsoever. Even the guy who had been with the girls peeled off and let them fend for themselves. The girls were very grateful and I told them they needed better friends in front of the guy. If a marine had choked him to death, I would not have objected. Although, candidly, I was really most concerned about being bitten or scratched. I doubted he had a weapon.
  6. Wait so now you are adding a condition, that the deal will close? I thought we were only discussing whether the 192 is real. I don't think there's any doubt it's real. Enjoy your hatwich.
  7. Is hamsterhookah Derka's dad or something? How can anybody read this stream of consciousness nonsense and think "yes, I agree and am glad somebody wrote that"?
  8. everything you write is painful to read
  9. I double down and move farther away. So if I'm upstairs in another room and she starts yelling, I go downstairs. If I'm in the kitchen, I go into the garage. Eventually I'll just hang out in my kids' treehouse.
  10. what kind of hat
  11. bingo And Frank can even think it's because the boys beat Mattson so bad he didn't want to talk to them anymore.
  12. I disagree. The 192 is real, I think. I think Mattson was responding to what he perceived to be Roman's very real desire not to sell to him. He is giving them a price the board will not reject, so that Roman has to do what Mattson wants. It's a power play; he is buying Roman and Ken and showing them they are irrelevant and what they want does not matter. He cultivated Shiv so he could split and weaken the three siblings. And that's why he wanted her to take a picture of Roman and Ken when the deal landed - to watch them in agony knowing the sale was now unstoppable but having to pretend that everything was good and they did a good job.
  13. Everything looks good but the potatoes look incredible.
  14. Completely agree. Shoeless Joe Jackson wasn't ITALIAN
  15. This was a great episode. However, I NEED to see them win a match now.
  16. Who gives a fuck?
  17. My three favorite places are the Villa of the Mysteries, the Odeon, and the Forum. Thanks for the info. I spent every day for a week in Pompeii when I was in college. If people ever have the time I recommend Herculaneum as well.
  18. Last time I went to Capri the cable car was not operating and we hiked all the way to Tiberius' Villa. I thought I was going to die. But this area is excellent. Let me ask you this: I heard that they moved most of the significant Pompeiian art and archaeological artifacts to the Museo Nazionale in Naples. So, to get the full effect, you had to hit that museum and the ruins. Is that still the case? How was Pompeii?
  19. I'm throwing in a vote for staying in Sorrento. It's centrally located, direct access to Capri, really cool town. Stay in the Excelsior Vittoria if you're rich.
  20. Nope. https://www.thetrace.org/2022/08/nra-foundation-grants-amicus-briefs/#:~:text=(Though its affiliate's name is,according to NRA meeting minutes.)
  21. Yeah all the NRA did was win Bruen
  22. That's fair, I guess. If you just want it to make loud noises toward a target without jamming, it's fine.
  23. I am not. They are not good firearms. They are sturdy and reliable but they are clunky, inaccurate, and poorly crafted. Taurus handguns are literally garbage. They couldn't even properly manufacture the designs they stole from Beretta.
  24. I also liked Roy locking eyes with Jamie and nodding during Zava's retirement video.
  25. I would spend $1000 not to make my wife a card like a kindergartner.
