Across the U.S. in nineteen separate shooting incidents on Easter Sunday, multiple people were injured and fourteen more were killed.

Let them argue; hauptsache, it sank.

I've already done all that - light only in rooms being used, heat the house only in the daytime (to a certain point), almost never use A/C, no A/C in bath or bedrooms - and now I'm not cooking or baking from 4 to 9 PM, as the rates have been raised. What's left to do? Swear to God, if they could tax breathing, they'd do it in a heartbeat!

Not a criminal matter. And the State's concerns stopped there? How about child endangerment - child, loaded gun, access to gun? Oh, no, wait. Florida is one of those states where children are endangered only while they're in the womb. Once they're out, their safety is no longer the government's concern. Nothing to see here. Move on.

In response to the above, a shopkeeper in a Southern California mall attempted to shoot two shoplifters, chasing them through the mall with his gun ablaze. The shoplifters escaped unharmed, but he did shoot a 9-year-old girl three times, injuring her seriously. She was waiting to see the mall's Easter bunny. So much for the idea that everyone should be armed, just in case.

I get so sick and tired of thoughts and prayers being offered. I suppose it makes people feel better than trying to change the system. And they're cheap. After all, we all know that throwing money at a problem never solves anything, so what remains?

Unacceptable from anyone.

Just gain weight, wear clothes with American flag motifs, and talk loudly in public. That should solve the problem, @BethAnnBitt.

A lot of people here in the U.S. wanted Smith hanged, drawn and quartered. I think it's likely that, in a year or two of Smith's perceived 'good behavior', the Academy will reinstate his visitation rights at their celebrations.  

Ted Cruz Says Confirmation of Qualified Nominee Sets Dangerous Precedent By Andy Borowitz April 7, 2022 Photograph by Joshua Roberts / Sipa / Bloomberg / Getty                    WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Minutes after Kentanji Brown Jackson was confirmed to the United States Supreme Court, Senator Ted Cruz warned that the confirmation of a qualified nominee set “a dangerous precedent.” “Make no mistake, Judge Jackson has been confirmed for the flimsiest of reasons—that she is qualified,” Cruz said. “Now that one qualified nominee has been confirmed, we can expect more of the same.”| “Mark my words, Joe Biden and his cabal of Democratic cronies are ready to pack the Court with other qualified nominees,” he added. “The slippery slope started today.” Recalling confirmation hearings of yesteryear, Cruz waxed nostalgic for an era “before the tyranny of the qualified seized control.” “There was a time in America when a Supreme Court nominee could be confirmed because he liked beer and cried about calendars,” he said. “Those days, sadly, appear to be over.”
