what a prick.

I only read your OP, and a subsequent post,, but you can t seriously equate my quote, stating my view of the mainstream media, as the same advocating murder.

the free press survived without CNN for a long time, and , god willing, it will far outlast the dishonest press, and dishonest consultants.

yer a fucking dishonest idiot. you are the worst of us and liberty would not suffer if you were left by the wayside.

you are not worthy of my time or my effort in debate.

you are not worthy.

but, you will be cheered because you have driven me from this sight.

jim, you disgust me.

what a pig you are.

play some pink Floyd...., or read some orwell.....

you are the pig.

and do you really think that your antifa brethren will spare you the suffering that they wish to inflict upon the bourgoise?

jim, you are the elite that they so hate and you if you sow the whirlwind, you will reap the storm

re think things, please.

OK, I wish I had the nice little Browning auto 22. It is a very classy plinker. He did have 3 'black rifles' which seem to have become a meme for scary people. In total the arsenal looks to me to be a very long way from doing something more infamous than the Las Vegas concert shooting... It does look like the system has taken a very scary guy off the street. I just worry about where the line is. In general, I just don't like preventive detention.
snailgate.
sg. I agree somewhat with your arsenal assessment. However, this is only what Hasson had stored at home. Depending upon his strength of commitment and right-wing, white nationalist/supremacists connections, plus military weapons access, who's to say that he wouldn't have been able to upgrade to heavier artillery when he went to carry out the ugly deed?

Preventative detention appears to be reasonable and prudent, and bail should be denied until -- at least -- ample psychiatric evaluation has been made.

Hey wesw, did you write this?



Woahh Wa-ohhh, Wa-ohhh-ohh-ohh
Woahh Wa-ohhh, Wa-ohhh-ohh-ohh

I tried to be nice
I tried to live my life
But everyone else is an asshole

I tried to forgive
I tried to live and let live
But everyone else is an asshole

And everybody else thinks of no one but themselves
And no one wants to help cause they're all assholes
And every friendly chat is a knife in the back
A sneaky attack waiting to happen

I tried not to mind
I tried to be so kind
But everyone else is an asshole

I tried to let love rule
But I feel like such a fool
Cause everyone else is an asshole

And they're out there even now
Trying to mess me up somehow
But they won't stop me now
Cause they're all assholes

And they're planning while I sleep
And even as we speak
To strike when I am weak
Cause they're all assholes

Everyone else
Everyone else
Everyone else is an asshole
Everyone else
Everyone else
Everyone else is an asshole

It's time to defend
I know I have no friends
Everyone else is an asshole

I've got to get them first
Cause worst has come to worst
Everyone else is an asshole

But they put the blame on me
Pretending not to see
That I just want to be free
From these assholes

But I couldn't take their shit
So I tried to deal with it
And now I look a bit
Like an asshole!

I tried to be nice
I tried to live my life
But everyone else is an asshole

I tried to overlook
And I tried to close the book
But everyone else is an asshole

I tried not to talk shit
But I just couldn't help it
Everyone else is an asshole

They called it assault
But it really wasn't my fault
Everyone else is an asshole

Everyone else
Everyone else
Everyone else is an asshole
Everyone else
Everyone else
Everyone else is an asshole

You're an asshole too!
You're an asshole too!
I'm talking bout you
I'm talking bout you
I'm talking bout you, and you, and you
You're an asshole too
I'm talking bout you, and you, and you
You're an asshole too
I'm talking bout you, and you, and you
You're an asshole too
GAH!

Those two clips remind me that I never finished watching Justified . . . it’s been so long I might need to rewatch 1-4 so season 5 makes sense.

The 5th season is excellent, with Sam Elliot as the villain and Mary Steenburgen gives a superb performance as the ice cold villainess...The series finale is one of the best I've ever seen...


Raylan is frequently good for a quote. Here he is giving the explanation for why Trump's senior White House staff are constantly stabbing each other in the back:

Some might say that’s a fair description of what happens here at times . . . :P :lol:


I’ve been bingeing so many series in recent years that it’s hard to keep track and coupled with my middle aged/menopausal/autoimmune damaged memory, I really can’t recall specifics about season 4 of Justified. I guess I’ll try rewatching the final episode of that season and going from there - but hopefully season 5 is a bit independent anyway? (My new rule is I won’t watch anything until it’s fully available - which means watching most things after they’re old and cancelled.)

I have to apologize, what I describe there is actually season six, which is the final season...(I must have had a senior moment there... :? )

I went back and refreshed my memory by looking at IMDB, and season 5 is also very good, (it was the first season I watched while it was airing. I then went back and binge watched seasons 1-4...)

Watching season five and then season six should work fine in terms of following the characters and the story lines...

Long, long ago, the Prime Minister of the USSR was visiting in the USA and in Canada. While in Canada, a person from Ukraine walked up to the leader of the USSR and popped him on the nose with a fist.

This was explained as another data point in the difference between Canada and the USA. In the USA the leader is carefully and extensively shielded from the ordinary person. If such a one is greatly displeased with the leader, the only way to EFFECTIVELY communicate this is via extreme violence from a distance. In Canada such a one can just walk up to the leader and take a swing. Much cheaper.

If all Trump or anyone else had to worry about was a poke in the eye I'd say let the people come.  But in today's gun-crazy America, all letting someone in closer means is they are that much nearer to the target and less likely to miss when they pull their weapon(s).  Witness what happened — at short range — to Lincoln, James Garfield, Teddy Roosevelt, Bobby Kennedy, George Wallace, Ronald Reagan, Gabrielle 'Gabby' Giffords, John Lennon, Larry Flynt (although it's hard to shed a tear for a pornlord), and countless others.

You don't dare give anybody close-up access to anyone, for any reason, in America nowadays.

If everyone who'd like to pop Trump in the nose was able to walk up to him and do it, he'd look like Jake Lamotta...
