Where is the thread?

What about the cases where women kill their "unarmed" home invader? That one truly irks me.

I try to be courteous. I'm less worried about the folks open carrying or legally carrying concealed than I am about the gangsters around here. Their women have a strong fondness for razor studded potatoes on a string, and the men carry everything from box cutters to Uzis. It is sort of annoying...

The earthquake was in Napa. I had no idea that it impacted a Mexican canal? Can you clarify? They had a major fire in a mobile home park, they had at least three buildings fall or partially fall, and there are lot of injured people, including a child with severe neurological injuries from a...

Well, I suspect that I am not trash, and I rarely shop at Wally World, but I have been known to bring my pistol into a store or two. I also don't shoplift. At times at our Nevada property we have had issues with people who dump dogs, some of which are highly aggressive and have serious issues...

I think that's the S&W. But I wouldn't bet my life on it.

Meanwhile, in Salt Lake City a Black cop shot and unarmed White guy who was not charging him or attacking him. Unfortunately, he was wearing headphones, so he couldn't hear the police commands. There are peaceful protests in Salt Lake City over "overzealous" policing - but no looting or...

There is a video where there are several "witnesses" who talk about how the police shot him down for "no reason" - and in the next breath state they were in the shower, in their apartments, or whatever when the shots were fired. Which means that they actually didn't see the incident. One video...

Actually, we *don't* send them back, and many of these "children" are cartel foot soldiers. In central America children leave school and enter the workforce around age fifteen or so. A male classmate of mine married a woman who was a secretary in the courts of one Central American country. She...

The Libertarians and the Tea Party Republicans are sending emails about the "militarization" of police and about the apparent repeated excessive use of force by the Ferguson police. This is interesting since both groups were rallying in opposition to the militarization of police and government...

The police in most places don't have a great reputation. Here they seem to think they are still terrorizing Afghani and Iraqi peasants. As of tonight, the Ferguson demonstrators are complaining about tear gas although demonstrators were lobbing Molotov cocktails at the police. In Oakland...

No, actually they won't contribute to taxes in many, if not most, cases. We have a number around here who were legalized by Reagan and became citizens. They have enormous families that they cannot support, so the taxpayers pay the freight for six to twenty children. To expect them to support...

It is about future votes for Democrats, and future cheap labor for both Democrats and Republicans. It is no accident that Nancy Pelosi has large resort and vineyard holdings where it seems neither immigration nor labor activists appear to ever arrive on the premises. Here is the reality of why...

Really? I don't recall my ancestors receiving free breakfast, free lunch, or free anything from the tribes. I do recall that one indigenous person, who spoke English and had lived in Europe for some years, assisted them in learning to plant corn, use fertilizer, trade, etc. His entire people...

Then why did the initial reports indicate that the officer was treated at a local hospital for injuries sustained in this "altercation?"

Cassoe. neither of us were there. Could the police be lying? Yes; it is such a common thing that lawyers have given it a nickname - testilying. Judges don't like it, and neither do I. We don't know. Someone will have to do a reconstruction and an analysis, and obtain all of the witness...

So he was 5'3"and weighed 98 pounds? I can't figure out why the patrol cars didn't have the forward looking cameras. I don't know what happened. I think we need to see where the investigation leads. It is possible that the police could be testilying.

I am so sorry, but eyewitness testimony is one of the most inaccurate forms of evidence. People will state that the offender was black when the camera clearly shows he is white, and vice versa. You have no idea of how many supposed "witnesses" felt that the police overreacted when they used...

Actually, it appears he weighed 250 pounds, was over six feet tall, and was attacking the officer. People who aren't armed kill other people each and every day. Real violence and TV violence have nothing in common. If someone is attacking you and won't back off, you have a right to defend...
