15 I can't see the DNC as anything more than something to keep the collusion story going. Thats how they have kept it going from the beginning, they do something , write two stories about it then report there are two stories about it there must be something to it.

28 Personally I don't do airports anymore. If it is over a ten hour drive I do not go. Even before 9-11 flying anywhere got to be a royal pain in the ass.

Usually I drive. I'm a tall guy and the damn plane seats have no leg room anymore. We flew first class so it's okay on that point. I had foot surgery last year and didn't think I could make the 22 hour drive down here. I would have been miserable by the end of the days.

34 We flew out of Ohare, and the plane was delayed for 2 hours because of broken seats. We found out later that the part that was broken was the TV screen in the backrest, so they couldn't show you the safety speech. I guess none of the attendants can explain how to put on a seat belt anymore

Did you see, in photos taken from inside the Southwest Airline plane whose engine blew last week, that a whole bunch of the passengers were holding the yellow cup for the oxygen mask over their mouths but NOT their noses? That needs to be made clear.

.I used to the be the same way Vic and I did a short stint with the TSA when they stood up, but this last trip for my Aunt's funeral went 100% perfectly.

Planes on time and no kicking people off for over booking. Somehow both the wife and I got the exalted TSA "Pre check" status and didn't have to stand in any lines or take our shoes off.

Still not sure exactly how that happened though. The one TSA guy said it was purely random and another said it was because we are both retired form the Navy and used those ID's plus we checked in online a day early.

However it happened it happened both ways and was actually pleasant especially at the Dallas airport, that line had to be at least 250-300 people deep.

Hell, W let the left call him a murderer for eight years without so much as a burp.

Reagan is the only other GOP President that fought the left but as badly as he was treated whats happening to Trump is magnitudes worse.

71 Since my FiL passed away some time back there is literally no place we HAVE to get to fast. Just as well. No leg room, seats way too narrow for my big butt, and I will not deal with that TSA pathtic joke. And I don't have the patience for stupid passengers, arrogant attendants, etc. I'm more comfortable in the SUV, probably safer, and less likely to be arrested. Haven't flown since 1985 and do not miss it.

That's why I was incredibly pissed at the Gorsuch decision and his use of vagueness as a criteria to strike down a pretty straightforward commonly understood legal term.

The 2nd ammendment has to be one of the most clearly written unambiguous pieces of law ever to be committed to paper and yet we have dick fuck judges scratcthing their balls saying its unclear what the founders where on about, a real head scratcher.

Gorsuch fucked up and did the typical liberal thing of reasoning to result.

I don't have a problem with the Gorsuch position. I mentally put myself in the position of living in a police state and the police using some overly broad interpretation of a law to lock me away forever. Bankrupting me in the process.

I think it was the right thing. Let the law-writers fix the wording.

That was a good interview with Colion Noir and Joe Rogan. Watched every minute of it.

83 Just back from a multi-day drive with family through AZ to Monument Valley and back. Spent wed night in Flagstaff, did a morning drive to MV and returned that evening. Back down to east valley Friday, just before the snow shower dusted Flagstaff.

The Navaho's are doing a tremendous job there. 20 bucks entrance fee for the truck. Yes, it's more busy now, but still beautiful. I can always agree to another trip back. Roads to and from are good. Don't drive around the park yourself unless your vehicle has good clearance. Truck tours and horseback tours available.

The restaurant was really good, reasonably priced, and three of the four of us couldn't finish our plates. Dad did, he had the mutton stew. Said he couldn't remember the last time he had that.

85 Gannett paper this am has the usual article about gun control and how we need lots more of it. Don't blame mental illness.

"To end mass shootings we need gun control. We need leaders who will do more than shout mental illness, knowing that mental illness is not the reason that these horrific events are so common and that America is the most violent industrialized country in the world."

Fix it how? By listing all possible crimes of violence?

Question: With regards to murder, do murder statutes list all the ways in which an individual can be charged with murdering someone?

Answer: No.

I have heard some say, well they should just have just said that aliens can be expelled for the commission of a felony.

Well my answer to that would be federal or state? Non-Violent or violent?

And even if you went down the rabbit hole of trying to list every fucking permutation of felony and every which way to try to innoculate the law from judicial interpretation a fucking judge will someone how rule the law is overly broad.

You do know that laws can and have been struck down for being overlybroad or that a judge can change the interpretation on a whim.

Remember when the SCOTUS said that State Exchanges really meant federal and state?

So if you wrote the law and said that illeaglas could be removed on the commission of a felony a fucking judge who's sole purpose was to strike down the law would say something like...

The usage of the world felony is overly broad and imprecise, do you mean state felony or federal felony?

Since you are charging him in federal court with a state crime and since immigration is under federal jurisdiction I reason that when you say felony you mean federal felony and I will now strike down your statute for being vague and overly broad.

This is what they do, they reason to result and can pretty much make up any shit they want and there is nothing we can do about it.

The actual immigration law doesn't make a difference whether it is a State felony or a federal felony. It says commission of a felony period. But they did not invoke the INS law in deporting him for some stupid reason.

I look at it this way; let's get the worst of the worst immigrants, legal or illegal out of the country. Start with the worst offenders, the murderers, the rapists, the violent, etc. There's plenty there to round up.

Burglars and jaywalkers are a little further behind on that list.

I don't know why they charged him with that particular law, perhaps collusion with the judicial branch, perhaps taking the law for a spin, who knows...

And my construction still stands..

A judge who wanted to strike down the statute that just says on the commssion of a felony would say that the law is vague because you just say felony without saying what type of felony and what jurisdiction and since you are charging him in federal court with a state crime and since immigration is under federal jurisdiciton I reason that when you say felony you must mean federal felony..

180 Did you see, in photos taken from inside the Southwest Airline plane whose engine blew last week, that a whole bunch of the passengers were holding the yellow cup for the oxygen mask over their mouths but NOT their noses? That needs to be made clear.

Well they wouldn't have looked good in their selfies if they covered too much of their faces

IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE the book thread isn't until tomorrow.

Getting caught up on comments is a relative thing. If you're not behind when you refresh, you will be immediately after.

Been trying to get up earlier, and managed to get up today before dawn. Of course, it's overcast so no sunrise, but - probably because of the light sprinkling of rain in the early hours - the birds were screaming furiously.

Pleasant and mild and slightly damp here in NE OK, not 31 inches of snow like Egg Harbor. I'll take it.

Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh signed a pair of bills at a City Hall ceremony Thursday imposing new rules on how food and drink gets sold.

No need to feel bad. The Rockies were in the dugout watching the Avalanche amazing late 3rd period comeback win over Nashville, in Nashville. It's still hockey season (by the skin of their teeth the Avs are still alive).

194 The whole point of a police force was that is was not to be military.
Yet they have sergeants and lieutenants and captains and wannabe
four-star generals and they go around calling everyone who's not a cop a
"civilian."

STFU, you're all civilians.

Actually, no they're not. The legal definition of a peace officer is "the military police of a state." Peace officers didn't exist in the U.S. until after the Civil War.

Woke up this morning to the sound of screaming dogs. Carmen, improbably, got her toenail caught in the ring of Dot's collar and couldn't get it out. Both were thrashing around trying to free themselves. Mommy and Daddy took care of it. No lasting effect, thank goodness.

Juices and soda are very similar as far as calories and amount of sugar.

Someone here at AoS actually went into explaining the procedure of using a tire jack and slowly spreading the door jamb until the door pops open. Seems kinda non-violent.

At my age I can just say, "Officer, glad you came along. Can you help me change this tire? I have to get back to 'the home'.

216 I'll expand a little bit about what I said about Peace Officers. After the civil war Martial Law was imposed on the US - which is where the peace officers came from. Before the Civil War we had Constables and Sheriffs but they weren't in uniforms and didn't have military ranks. The military police (peace officers) were imposed on us by the martial law situation. FBI agents are not peace officers, they don't wear uniforms, and they don't have military ranks.

That Civil War martial law condition has never ended. The government likes it because it allows them to do all sorts of things it couldn't do without it. There was an interesting article by a federal judge in Utah that pointed all of that out.
