    And again... (Another US Shooting)

    It's funny that it's Texas, which periodically (by which I mean "whenever a Democrat is in the White House") threatens to secede cuz they don't like or trust the gol-dang gummint in Wash'tin. And when the rough, tough, rootin' tootin' Real Americans of the One-Star State faced the dread horror...

    And again... (Another US Shooting)

    Screw the dead kids and teachers. We got our retirement to protect! Still. . . "multiple law enforcement sources tell ABC News." We've already seen the reliability and accuracy of Texas law enforcement sources, so take it with a block of salt.

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    Some states have the same rules. For example, a ball-and-powder revolver isn't considered a "firearm" in many states. Our laws are pretty much the same. See the Clint Eastwood movie Pale Rider for some good video on ball-and-powder revolvers. Or YouTube if ya don't have a couple of hours.

    And again... (Another US Shooting)

    Can y'all IMAGINE what the ghouls will pay for Ramos's AR-15 when the cops auction it off? I can imagine how much of that money will go to the victims and their families. None of it.

    Well, "Texas police" is a less reliable source than the crazy guy shouting on the street corner.

    Trudeau cancels appearance at Surrey fundraiser after protesters hurl racial slurs

    Nah, that ain't misogynistic. That's kinky.

    True. Public opinion is the important part. Who cares about children's lives?

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    You need to be more like America. Down here, police departments auction off seized weapons.

    Oh Dear

    I think we've sucked all the fun outta this one that was in it. Let's move on. Proposed topic: Justin Trudeau: fucking imbecile or evil fascist, and is it possible to be both?

    Texting and Driving

    If you own it, why are you now trying to claim it was relevant? Does this mean I get to say "Whatabout the IRA" in every thread, and justify it by saying "Well, in the broader sense Canada's next election is about human behaviour, and the IRA's terrorism was human behaviour (barely), so it's...

    Oh Dear

    Damn. You blocked my zinger. Well done, sir. [goes back to crafting Thermo-Ballistic-Autotargetting Zinger]

    Nancy Pelosi’s husband arrested for DUI in California

    OK. Feel free to be deeply concerned with state law in a different country. What do think of Bavaria's law on leather drawers? And feel free to continue to pretend you give a damn for anything but a stick to beat Nancy Pelosi with. Just don't give up your day job. You're a shit actor.

    Mary Ng under ethics probe over contract to firm co-founded by alleged friend

    Why would you have an ethics probe on marrying? It there a big problem with marriage in Canada? Lots o' bigamy, maybe? Underage brides?

    2SLGBTQQIA+

    Almost as good as your detailed analysis of my relationship with girlfriends' kids, no doubt based on your deep, personal knowledge of those relationships. But look on the bright side. At least I addressed the question and didn't start foaming at the mouth about texting and driving.

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    The legal history of the Second Amendment vs. gun control is pretty sketchy. There are essentially two cases. . . In 1939 the Supremes decide Miller v. U.S. The issue was whether Miller had the right to own a sawed-off shotgun. The Supremes tied the Second Amendment to the militia, ruling...

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    Yep, that's a standard instruction in the autopsy/funeral industry. 1. Pry gun from cadaver's cold dead hands. 2. Remove all clothing. etc., etc.

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    If you want to talk about handguns as personal-defense weapons, that's a conversation I'm perfectly willing to have. But it has nothing to do with the Second Amendment or the purposes for which it was passed in the first place in Virginia, or later added to the Constitution. And a handgun is...

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    Short primer. The Bill of Rights is taken, lock stock and barrel, from the Virginia Bill of Rights. Therefore, it reflects issues that were of concern in the mid-18th century. There was a huge debate at the Constitutional Convention as to whether a bill of rights should be included at all...
