Fascinating piece. Seemingly the reason we deregulated gun ownership to the point that lunatics can easily buy weapons of mass slaughter is Obama winning the presidency. I trust that my good friend George, who knows about these things will weight in.

Former Gun Company Executive Explains Roots of America’s Gun Violence Epidemic Ryan Busse once worked for a major gun-maker. He now warns about the danger of growing radicalization in the industry.

Very touching

"See this moment? I've never experienced a moment like this. Yesterday was the first day my 5-year-old Autistic son met his new Autism Service Dog, Tornado. We are Americans that live overseas in Japan and have prepared for nearly two years to meet Tornado.”
This mother can't hug, wash, dress, snuggle and touch her son freely. But he is laying on the new service dog of his own free will, with a purposeful, unspoken attachment. This is the face of a mom who has seen her son experience countless failed social interactions on the playground in an attempt to have a friend. Any friend. But he has a friend now. ❤️🙏

Interesting day!

A true Trumpist!

A man said his camper was set on fire over a Trump flag. Now, officials say he set the blaze himself. A Minnesota man who said his home was vandalized with graffiti and his camper with a “Trump 2020” flag on it was set on fire is facing fraud charges.

The Repubs want a stupid and compliant population using jesus to beat folk into compliance. It’s failing and it will be disastrous for them. Probably all they can hope for is to create a red state Jesus country, that will either flood or burn or dry up and die from drought

'Chilling': Oklahoma teacher fired after providing students with free access to e-books from local library A English teacher at Norman High School in Oklahoma was fired after she provided students with a QR code for free access to e-books, Fox 25 reports.

So goddamn right!

A Supreme Court validated shooting! It must be legit!

Woman Is Shot and Arrested After Opening Fire at Dallas Love Field The shooting sent travelers scrambling for cover inside the airport, but no other injuries were reported, the authorities said.

At some point do states like California and New York need to openly defy Supreme Court rulings that resist common sense and the public good? Why is it a right that lunatics can buy a handgun or AR15 and slaughter school children and we can’t pass laws that address ownership? The United States will cease to be United soon enough.

What the Landmark SCOTUS Decision on Guns Means for New York and Beyond — The Trace In striking down New York’s “good cause” permitting law, the justices set a precedent that may imperil licensing regimes in at least five other states.

Is the Supreme Court just a bad joke, or is it that anything Trump touches turns to S**t?

‘Lied’: Gorsuch blasted after photos expose his claims in high school coach praying case are a ‘flat out, knowing lie’ Many people from legal experts to court watchers to journalists to ordinary Americans on social media are criticizing Justice Neil Gorsuch for his majority opinion in a decision siding with a former high school football coach. That coach sued after the school district ordered him to stop praying aft...

While our unhinged Supreme Court will soon empower even more lunatics to purchase AR15s to slaughter children because…Everyman has the right to purchase weapons of war to slaughter children

Santa Ana Unified plans town halls on school safety The forums are in response to a mass shooting in a Texas school and an incident at Taft Elementary last month.

Colette’s first KO!

It’s coming down to this. The Repub party is the far far right and how much of the seed money that feed this lunatic came directly from Putin. How many Repubs elected officials like were on Putin’s payroll directly or indirectly?

No words…just a country of terrified, gun sucking nitwits

To protect and serve? Naw, it’s wait around drinking coffee while kids are slaughtered.

The Supreme Court has ruled that cops have 'no specific legal duty to individuals.' We need better laws Recent tragic mass shootings are drawing attention (again) to a lot of societal problems we could fix if we wanted to but instead prioritize white supremacy, sexism, and gun culture. Last week, I wrote about the radicalization of young men and the way gun manufacturers prey on this to sell guns to m...

How touching and how much a miracle Michelle Obama is.

Essentially it was a failed coup. The great majority of Repubs believe they have a right to rule us. They don’t believe in democracy. We must disabuse them of this notion

Jan. 6 committee says Meadows knew about threat of violence ahead of riot — The Hill The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol asked a federal judge on Friday to enforce its subpoena of Mark Meadows, revealing new evidence that the former White House chief of staff had been warned of potential violence ahead of the riot.

A fool and it’s meta are soon parted or something like that. Or is it that some people would rather have anything but money?

Can you truly own anything in the metaverse? A law professor explains how blockchains and NFTs don't protect virtual property NFTs are hailed as the foundation of the metaverse economy because they allow you to purchase unique digital assets, from art to real estate. But legally, you might not own what you think you do.

My goal is to cover all the barren areas of my yard with bags of Starbucks coffee grounds. It’s free and I’m obsessed.
