Now we have "The Sons of Anarchy" and "The Sopranos". Deeply nihilist depictions of social pathology and pure evil.

And it is because of the essential sweetness of his character and his deference to Andy that he accepted this condition.

That and Andy could fire him, cousin or not.

... and deeply disturbing in their popularity and what that says about society
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

6. Two passport photographs
7. 2 Fingerprint cards
8. Proof of residency ( may be a utility or cable bill)
9. Report from your home state Bureau of Criminal Records listing your arrest record


The only 'obstacle' is #5, and considering I'm a former law enforcement officer and the victim of a felony intimidation charge that resulted in conviction against the stalker who the State of Montana considered dangerous enough to issue me a lifetime protection order against, AND I've had a previous CWP and have passed character and fitness, I don't think it would be a problem if I really wanted one.

But at the moment I'm fairly confident I moved far enough away from my insane Sovereign Citizen stalker to protect myself, because we all know a protection order might as well be toilet paper.
You just made my point: you could get one, because you are connected. Well...unless you are in one of the places where the person in charge blanketly rejects all applications!

To me, 'connected' is another way of saying "It's not what you know but who you know".  You or I or Joe Blow from Kokomo could get each and every one of the items she has listed, probably within a two-week period (with the possible exception of the training class, and that's a scheduling issue, nothing else).   So given these facts, Jarlaxle, howinthehell do you figure that it's because she is 'connected'?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

You know that no one can get a passport photo in such garb, so why would you post it?
