Posted by: Cicero (@cicero) at May 28, 2020 10:08 PM (kVr0X) Before the SJW trilogy came out, there was a detailed and fairly convincing argument on Reddit that Jar Jar was in fact a closet Sith Lord, either Palpatine's partner or even master, and would be revealed as the string-puller behind the First Order and Kylo Ren in the new movies. We didn't know then that would have been a better storyline. Posted by: Dr. T at May 28, 2020 10:12 PM (Vgw1E) 65

Minneapolis Police Union President Lt. Bob Kroll confirmed on Wednesday that Derek Chauvin the officer caught on tape resting his full weight on Minnesota man George Floyds neck shortly before he died was not on stage at an October campaign rally held by President Donald Trump.
Despite Twitters new approach to fact-checking their content, false claims that Chauvin was on stage at a Trump rally went viral and have not been moderated by the platform at the time of this writing.

It is different in Europe. They even have restaurants that specialize in horse meat in France I have heard. But I doubt it is very popular and is more of an odd niche product.
Posted by: Quint at May 28, 2020 10:23 PM (hHxp2) There's quite a few who do eat it over there. The outdoor market in Frankfurt had a food truck that made good business selling cuts of horse meat. And no, I did not partake. In fact, even though the smells from the other trucks were pretty yummy, I saw a picture of an innocent-looking horse on the side of the truck, and it destroyed my appetite for the rest of the evening.

Last weekend I learned to do long division in hexidecimal, using a radix point for fractional accuracy. Then I wrote a routine in AVR assembly, and it worked the first time! So now I can do some basic math on an ATmega microcontroller. Very handy! I don't want to use C, because that's cheating. Posted by: Chris M at May 28, 2020 10:26 PM (6XZdO) Ooh.

Regarding that vegan poster, in fairness to China, I
don't think they're buying purebred English bulldogs at thousands of dollars apiece in order to stir fry them. God gave us certain animals to eat. People in the Bible ate livestock. Nowhere in the Bible did people eat dogs and cats. So, those godless heathens in PETA can bite my butt. Posted by: nerdygirl at May 28, 2020 10:23 PM (+lVUW) Rule of thumb is that Philistine regions ate dogs and pigs, Israelite regions did not. Also, cats are not mentioned in the Bible, as far as I can tell. (sorry, gotta strain at gnats) of course there it the punchline: "I couldn't read the recipe you gave me for 'Ped-ig-ree' so we just cooked it the traditional way."

Best rabbit is wild Cottontail, from the mesquite tangles and grass pastures in South Texas.
Shot with a .22 LR, as Gawd & John Moses Browning intended. Break 'em down into quarters, leaving the back & ribs together as a single piece. Melt some butter, mix with some soy sauce and a splash of beer. Brush 'em all with that. Season with Pepper, Lemon Pepper and Garlic Powder. Cook on a simple grill over charcoal, and serve. Nom. OMG, so very much NOM. Jim Sunk New Dawn Galveston, TX Posted by: Jim at May 28, 2020 10:45 PM (QzJWU) 313
Used to be good at upland desert bunny hunting with 20 gauge, good grilling. Then one day almost finished cleaning one, haunch about ready for the grill... and it twitched. Freaked me the fuck out. Still honored it cooking and eating, but never shot another. Could not shoot a bird these days.

Quiet so far in this neck of the woods.
I walked around the neighborhood again before sunset, and it looks like there was a huge spree of window boarding in the late afternoon. I'd guess 85% of storefronts are boarded, and most of those that aren't have removed all visible inventory from shelves. But lots of what I'll politely call "ghetto ride" car traffic. The kinds of cars and drivers that we usually don't see around here, or maybe not in such large numbers. I'm guessing that's mostly people cruising Lake Street end to end and back again. Windows open, and fans, television, radios off. Keeping a listen for anything unusual within a few blocks. Some occasional walks around our apartment buildings and parking lot.

catfish is amazingly good eating, fry that up in cornmeal and I could eat it all day long. I don't like most fish but damn that's good. The only way I like most fish is straight out of the water onto a pan. Any older and it just isn't very good.

My dad used to say the same thing about the cabin up north at the lake. Of course any homeowner can point out the problem that two houses - a home and a summer place - equals three times the work because the summer place means you have 3-6 months to put in all of the stuff you normally would have 12 months to do. And then there is the block of time at the summer place which means the home is getting neglected so you come back from vacation with a backlog of projects to deal with. Seriously, it would be best if most people abandoned and burned their summer places up north. I swear I would never take advantage of such an opportunity. No sirree bob, never.

It was a real problem for my sister when her late husband became too ill to do - well, just about anything. She'd go up north, clean and mow the lawn and hire someone to do the fix-it work he once did and then she'd come back to her house and do the same thing. I do most of the cleaning around here now - I'm living here for cheap, so that's only fair - and she takes care of the place up north.

People need some anti-riot weapons. I'd suggest something like those big M-80 firecrackers, but probably hand-rolled. Maybe a quarter-pound of black powder, tightly wrapped in newspaper, with a reliable fuse in it.
And then a big-ass slingshot, capable of launching such a device over the roofs of houses and low-rise commercial buildings, so you could fire from one street, and have it land a block away in the next. Go out in the country, pace out the distance, and practice with dummy ammo to get the range down right. It wouldn't take many of these to either convince the rioters that the cops were using flash-bangs, or to convince the cops that the rioters were carrying home-made bombs. Either way, riot is potentially disrupted, with little risk of loss of life. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at May 28, 2020 11:26 PM (U5ljb) 500

I hate to say it, but the organized rioting is only going to get worse for the next several months. The two party conventions will be sporty, but Wednesday after the election will be widespread, the next weekend will have hundreds of thousands of organized protests, and the inauguration will be an especially bloody affair. I fully expect a terrorist event of some type directed at a soft target around the inauguration, like the parade or one of the balls. I also expect a campaign of violence against ICE and CBP, especially after the reelection, aided and abetted by prominent Democrats and media figures.

--- It's great when it's prepared well. My grandfather was a wizard at goat stew. He'd tell all his drinking buddies when he was making up a pot, and they'd all come by with gallon jugs to take some home. Made it in a giant cast-iron wash pot. Goats have become a pretty good niche market for farmers, too. The farm next to my brother's place in Tennessee lost a lot of money on beef, then switched to meat goats and he's done very well.

Minneapolis third precinct building ordered to evacuate fifteen minutes ago; now on fire.
Sounds like they cleared out the armory and all vehicles earlier today though. WTF? So the Police buys all of this 1033 military hardware, tanks, bombs, bazookas.... even hick Meal Team Six out in west Texas sticks has tanks and crew served weapons. The ferals come in to the police's own house and destroy it without any resistance? There are no snipers shooting these fuckers as they run out of the building they just set fire to? But these fearless warriors will beat a person senseless for not wearing a paper mask correctly but allow people to walk right in to their own house? This certainly has opened my eyes. We can beat this abusive government. Just show a spine and a willingness to turn to violence and the police and national guard will run away like little girls.

Private security can't stop the no-bail, never-prosecuted shoplifters, so businesses hire "off-duty" cops FROM THE CITY and have to pay bribes-er, "fees" to cover the cops' retirement pay. So, if I'm reading this right, the cops have a financial incentive to not arrest criminals, because who's going to pay their exorbitant fees as security guards if there's no crime? Conflict of interest, anyone?

"Also, sadly, there will probably be more drownings in the rivers St. Clair and Detroit."
That is true. Few people realize that those rivers have currents, and not just the downstream currents but a lot of weird currents that drag down, push sideways, etc. I have boated and patrolled the Detroit River for twenty years, and it is not something you want to treat lightly, that water can be very treacherous.

They worked at the same bar but never met? Unlikely.

States with large minority populations are more prone to these kind of things happening. And of course it does not mean the state is racist. A few idiots should not reflect on all of the people.

You can also get shotgun used, but there are discount brands (on sale, around or under $200) that will also do the job. Some low-recoil buckshot, some low-recoil slugs, some #4 buckshot. Enough to go to a range, shoot a bunch, get comfortable. And you're set.

If it's true that BLM and other Soros funded groups charter buses to bring in agitators, there has to be some place for the buses to park.
Why don't the police just blockade the large parking lots like they do the lots for parks and beaches to keep citizens out during Wu Flu lockdowns? Posted by: kbdabear at May 28, 2020 10:59 PM (qAR6u) If, in fact, charter buses are being used to bus in rioters, this would be a fine thing for citizen journalists to document.

702 The election was very close, and George Wallace probably peeled off enough working class (Roosevelt Democrat) white votes to give Nixon the win
Posted by: kbdabear Posted by: Miklos, with historically accurate parenthetical addendum at May 29, 2020 12:13 AM (QzkSJ) Wallace may have peeled off enough votes? Wallace was the most successful 3rd Party candidate in US electoral history, he won 46 electoral votes that year. Looked up the numbers from '68 - Nixon 43%, Humphrey 42%, Wallace 13.5%. Democrats win easily with Wallaces votes still inside the party. Posted by: Tom Servo at May 29, 2020 12:24 AM (V2Yro) 738

If you're wondering why these rioters aren't being shot, the mayor made sure to greenlight the rioting in his press appearances.
"The police killed this man. He would be alive if he was white" About the only thing missing was explicitly stating room to destroy. Meanwhile the dead man's girlfriend gave a measured statement that discouraged violence and destruction from occuring in his name. Too bad the mayor and the commies had other plans.

Trump is walking a fine line here, I appreciate the pickle he's in. On the one hand, Governor Walz deserves to own this; it's his ridiculous and cowardly non-reaction that has kicked this think into overdrive. Trump has let him own it so far.
On the other hand, Trump IS President, he can't just sit back and give a Nelson Laugh as Minneapolis burns. (that's OUR job) I've commented earlier how Bush's greatest failure was to defer to Gov. Blanco while she frittered away the crucial first 24 hours wondering "what to do, what to do?" Bush should have declared an emergency and stomped all over her, and yet Bush couldn't bring himself to do it. Trump can't make the same mistake. If this goes on for another day, and Walz continues to go hide in this basement, Trump has *got* to take charge. I don't want him to, but he'll have to. Still a chance, as Trump mentioned, for Walz to man up and get this right. Posted by: Tom Servo at May 29, 2020 01:16 AM (V2Yro) Posted by: The ARC of History! at May 29, 2020 01:16 AM (I2/tG) 908

What Trump sees, and what I see, is that due to Walz' idiotic non-reaction, this thing is growing and strengthening, not burning out like it should have. It's like a nuclear reactor that's melting down, and it's starting to such troublemakers into it, and maybe even metastisize around the country. This can maybe be allowed to go on one more day, max, and then it HAS to be put down. This is getting dangerous now.

Liberal shithole Blue cities elect Democrats with a totalitarian mindset, who also are completely ignorant about how to actually run anything. This attitude seeps into everything; all of the department heads become corrupt political activists, who tend to hire corrupt political activists. Competent people flee local government, and hiring standards go through the floor everywhere. Eventually all the departments - especially the Poilice Department - become overrun with politicized psychopaths who are there only because they delight in imposing their control on people - because that reflects the view of *everyone* in these City Governements,all the way to the top. And then something like this happens, and then the lid blows off the top of the pressure cooker, and then the city tries to figure out how to deal with this while having no one except incompetent psychotics on their payroll.

Do police involved in fatal incidents get arrested instantly like civilians at a crime scene? No expert but don't recall it. And it's not surprising. No flight risk, no ongoing threat to the community.
And my outrage f**ks are allocated already - to the massive number of completely avoidable, systematic injustices (not incidents) these people "protesting" all over the country actively abet and support. Oh and the young, empty-headed human garbage "protesting" in Denver were chanting "hands up don't shoot".

The mayor of San Diego is far less worse than the idiots who surely will replace him - and he's a pathetic jelly-like creature who perfectly embodies the collapse of the CA GOP. Always instantly stipulating or imitating the worst of the increasingly deranged racist nonsensical Dem garbage, rather than confronting it.
Had the pleasure of snubbing him at a party 2 years ago. AND the idiot sheriff, Gore (involved in Ruby Ridge), too, at the same event. A two-fer. After he's gone odds are a race-baiting grifting union-controlled idiot will replace him, so San Diego can really start to decline. The county as a whole still has traces of American adult mindset - only coastal county to fight the idiocy from Newsom on C-19 from the outset - but that can't last.

@1006: "Twin Cities are in deep shit. Thousands of idiots out wandering around. Governor and Mayors seem to be in shock, not responding to the media."
I'm gonna try and be really, really polite about what I'm about to say, but here goes: The looting that's taking place outside the immediate area of the George Floyd's arrest -- in other words, my neighborhood, northeast Minneapolis, and scattered out through the near suburbs -- is basically being carried out by a whole bunch of young, black "kids" in their late teens and early twenties, all of whom are racing around in multiple cars with friends that get tips about flash mobs on social media. License plates removed or doctored. Windows usually tinted illegally dark. Not just guys in hoodies, but plenty of wannabe thug girls too. Few Somali immigrants, although I'd guess there are a few here and there, but mostly normal, everyday bad apples that you'd be hard pressed to identify in a high school year book. They don't seem particularly violent, crazy, or tough either. Just high on the idea that they can get away with anything right now, because the cops have abandoned their posts, security cameras mean nothing, no one will come knocking on their doors tomorrow, and no one is likely to fight (or shoot) back.

On the other hand, Trump IS President, he can't just sit back and give a
Nelson Laugh as Minneapolis burns. (that's OUR job) I've commented earlier how Bush's greatest failure was to defer to Gov. Blanco while she frittered away the crucial first 24 hours wondering "what to do, what to do?" Bush should have declared an emergency and stomped all over her, and yet Bush couldn't bring himself to do it. Trump can't make the same mistake. If this goes on for another day, and Walz continues to go hide in this basement, Trump has *got* to take charge. I don't want him to, but he'll have to. Still a chance, as Trump mentioned, for Walz to man up and get this right. --- The problem with even waiting that long is, the shutdown happened because Trump left the governors to their own devices.

There's no getting around the massive long term consequences of what's happening now. It doesn't matter which side "wins" and no one will be happy with a stalemate or detente. If the looting and arson continues beyond this weekend, and I don't see why it would stop anytime soon, then you're looking at large portions of the city coming to a complete stand still. Basic services like grocery stores, pharmacies, general goods, etc., will be, at best, unwilling to open except during daylight hours with police presence, or at worst, destroyed and unlikely to reopen anytime soon, if ever. People will be scared to leave their homes. Especially those who are least able to get the fuck outta Dodge. I wasn't completely fatalistic last night, or even earlier tonight, but after the Apple Store looting tonight just down the street, and the random fights that broke out between looters and onlookers, I'm starting to feel a little less stoic about things.

@1076: "It seems no one is defending the cops and certainly not their actions. ... I see no way of moving forward if the rule of law is not enforced."
Here's the thing, and I don't think it can be overstated: Social media makes it ultra trivial for bad actors, who might or might not know one another, to converge anywhere within minutes. People are constantly gossiping about the next political target or looting opportunity, and they don't even have to try hard to find such information. Five minutes on Twitter or Facebook, simple search, and bingo. It's not like working your way into an old fashioned ethnic mob or local gang and planning out robberies. If you're bored one night, and wanna get swept up in the madness, then all you gotta do is jump in your car, and go. You'll figure out the destination along the way, or follow the winds, and go with the flow. Not just in your own neighborhood, or a few blocks over, but anywhere in the metro area. Especially places halfway across town where you'll never have to suffer the consequences of your actions. Those people over there are a different color, race, class, etc. Fuck 'em! Worse, everyone has some beat up car they don't give a single shit about, so it's not like friends have to crowd into one vehicle for a road trip. They can roll out with strength in numbers, knowing it'll be that much easier to flee when the time comes. Unless the cops are willing to be hardcore, really hardcore by modern standards, with rapid response riot squads, SWAT teams, etc., and they're willing to run all over town, scene after scene every fifteen minutes, scattering the vagrants, and barely catching anyone at all, then there's really no point in even trying.

Saw a fairly detailed article a couple of days ago about the upcoming catastrophe for owners of rental housing that is coming in a few months, after the PPP gravy money expires, and unemployment doesn't magically drop from 30% back to 4.5%. Millions of units, with nobody that can pay their rent. All in a couple of months. All at once. There is no plan B, either. In this new ballgame of COVAD and "new, improved racism", we aren't even out of the first inning yet. And the Blue State guvnors continue to cut down small businessess, and their millions of employees. The big wave of destruction mentioned above is still a few months out.

@1083: "Walter, parts of DC remained under- or un-used for *decades* after the '68 riots."
Of course, you're right. I grew up on the Illinois side of St. Louis, and my dad liked driving surface streets through East St. Louis rather than taking the highway around. He was born and raised in Detroit, and I think he enjoyed constantly reminding himself about how the human condition can go spectacularly wrong. I remember road tripping with some college friends from Minnesota, back home via Kansas City to visit my parents, so we approached from the west, and I took those same surface streets just to see their reactions. It's impossible to look away when all you see is block after block of an abandoned city that's still crumbling, and hasn't yet disappeared. I think most people like to be optimistic, even idealistic, about how strangers treat one another. It's seductive to stop worrying or even thinking about the darkness, but such momentary comfort was never meant to last. Posted by: Walter Freeman at May 29, 2020 02:38 AM (+oVP5) 1135

I finished my grand enterprise of sorting my huge stock of nails today, and promptly found a few more containers with a few nails in them. But now that I have my sorting categories mostly crystallized, it has become easy to sort the latecomers. Looks like one double handful of little cigar box nails left.
I found an easy way to deal with the real small ones is to dump them out into an aluminum cake pan, and then pick up small clumps with a magnet. That leaves most of the dust and dirt behind, and any ringers that appear in the clump can be readily recognized and set aside. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at May 29, 2020 02:59 AM (D06jk) 1174

National Dems couldn't care less about Frey. There's a dozen more cookie cutter liberals just like him waiting in line to be mayor.

if he really said that, and I don't doubt it but haven't seen the video, we are in real trouble. No one learns history anymore, they go on the net to buttress their pre conceived views.
So why are there cops in France, Japan, Spain, Russia, and on and on. I hope he did not say that but I have heard that canard. We won some elections but the hard angry left won even more by taking over academia, the media, public schools, and Hollyweird. I still wonder where where the parents? I remember as a kid getting books that said I was to trust a police man and a fireman above all. I am sick about this. Someone is to blame but at this point it will do not good. Maybe there is a way to fix it but it only seems a smaller and smaller group have to be so fired up that they simply outvote the other group. And I bet in the inner cities,the majority of cops are D.

True. I kinda forgot about that, and actually, you're very much like MN in that regard. Percentage of state population: 1990: 94.4% white 2000: 89.4% white 2010: 85.3% white 2020: sub-80% white (guess) It's a very significant demographic shift is just one generation, and I think our passive aggressive "Minnesota Nice" thing doesn't do a very good job of integrating newcomers into the proverbial melting pot.

A lot of the commercial business buildings around Midway and Uptown are old style with store fronts on the first floor, and apartments or offices on the second and sometimes third floors. The new construction on University Ave. in the Midway are store fronts with 5 or more floors of apartment buildings that use the Green Line Train as a selling point. Hopefully the mobs will stay away, or lots of mostly pasty white young people are going to be screwed, when the stores on the first floor are looted and set on fire.

Christopher R Taylor, about the pan your aunt bought you? The one you used to use, before it broke, to make egg mcmuffins? Like two frying pans connected? Some people use those to make fried eggs, yolk intact, cooked over light or over medium. You flip the pans, as a unit, and avoid the always risky egg flipping step. I bought one from amazon. It is okay. The up pan is not hot, so when you flip, there is a bit of a delay in cooking.

My impression of the Media 5/28/20:
"Minneapolis burned, yesterday, in what seemed to be a Pretty Good Idea from local residents, as they have simply had enough. We wouldn't be surprised, nudge, if this protest were to spread country-wide, as protest and outrage for The Correct People seems to be the Order of the Day." 5/29/20... "More protests turned surprisingly violent at times in what seems to have sprung from incidents in Minneapolis" Posted by: Slapweasel at May 29, 2020 04:06 AM (Ckg4U) 1249

So, moral rot in the Minneapolis Police Department collided with moral rot in a certain section of the populace at large, resulting in general barbarism. That about sum it up, would ya say?

It is interesting to see this whole thing.
I wonder if you had the same riot, but protesting the lockdown, whether the police and fire would have completely abandoned the city? On the other hand, there are all the other residents of Minneapolis. I think the twisted rationale is that if you offer no resistance to people's anger, it will burn itself out and you can get on with things. That if you try to clamp down on it, the violence will intensify. On the other hand, we are kind of seeing in action, if there is NO resistance, people will just keep intensifying on their own, because there is nothing to snap them out of it and no consequences.

I was on twitter for a couple years. Followed a bunch of car guys, and scuba and politics. Found it was taking a lot of my time. And did not like what twitter was doing to people on my side of the political spectrum. So I recently quit. You probably know this. But if you want, you can always go to twitter as a web page.

: Is this what civil war looks like?"
Not even close... some days there were 25000.killed in one day.... in the last one... Posted by: beanervt at May 29, 2020 05:33 AM (YHcGR) 90 percent of Americans have never heard of Shiloh. If I am wrong about this I will eat my hat. More died at Shiloh, a battle most have never heard of, than all American wars combined to that point. I don't expect an American Civil War. What I see is a nation that wants to divorce and a national divorce is coming. It might not have any codyfying laws, but it will be the de facto law. The people from the big cities, North or South, want to live in Leftist Land. They mocked us and called us Jesus Land when Bush won in 2004. But it has never been made more clear that that the division is not about North or South, it is about cities and the country. And lets be honest, the rich suburbs are moving left, not right. Anyone who has studied the Civil War has a hard time with "National Divorce". It is really unrelated to the Civil War as the issues don't compare at all. In fact, if you wonder why Northerners fought for the Union way back when, check out the the dry book "The Union War" by Garry Gallagher. A lot of people have questions about this and he does give some answers. Today is a different world. There is a point where people need to get over marriage counseling and realize they have nothing in common and they are no longer part of a shared community. We could have stopped this. A lot of people could have stopped this or at least taken it on. But all I heard wast the theory of a lefty take over until it no longer became theory. Now we mine votes from a smaller locale and hope for some reason they come out in record numbers. We gave them everything over time and wonder why they do well. Franklin said he gave us a republic if we could keep it. Posted by: Quint at May 29, 2020 06:16 AM (hHxp2) 1360

Trump and Twitter: President Donald Trump tweeted about the Minnesota protests, saying "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." Twitter has since flagged the tweet as violating the platform's rules and "glorifying violence."
-- I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that - judging by the peaceful protests the city is currently enjoying - Minneapolis has probably had plenty of shooting before this looting.

Seems strange. He will defend grocery stores and pharmacies because they are essential. However, if you let them burn down all the police buildings, how will you defend anything?
How about people's homes? Are they essential? What if they live at the storefront they saved all their lives to open? This is why this type of shit is so corrosive. The lines start to get real blurry. It is either yes, you accept looting (in which case, why do we have a fucking government) or you don't, and act accordingly.

We will be building in MT in the next few months and moving there from OH. Found out yesterday that the people to the south of us are already building, we purchased property at the same time as they did. Asked how they finalized plans, etc and are building already. They were highly motivated and purchased plans for a home the builders had already built while making minor changes.
Their reason for being so highly motivated? Trying to get out of San Mateo CA. They cannot take it anymore and want out sooner then later. We've found that a lot of property being sold in our area is to CA residents. That could be bad if they bring CA attitudes with them on taxes, rules, etc. Hoping these are freedom loving folk and not assholes. Our builders also escaped CA 15 years ago.

Watching F&F in background - it makes me sad to see even Steve Scalise say "FISA must be reformed". No, FISA is fatally flawed; FISA is now expiring and that should be allowed to happen. Let it die and stay dead; use other methods. The FBI cannot use that power, will never use that power well. The FISA Court system was an abomination.

Here in Texas, masks are increasingly vanishing. Even store employees are now throwing them away. There are a few stores that have tried saying "no entry unless you wear a mask!!!" Those stores are noticeably empty; they might as well just lock their doors and fold now. Nobody is willing to put up with that shit anymore.

But the left has taken the place over, it is a fact. But i remember years ago when it was an R precinct. I remember when even the carpet baggers were normals. The issue is we have lost the game. i remember when Alexandria was so conservative it would make a lot of places blush. But some of the stuff they do know from what I hear, who boy. It is sad really.

Alexandria was one of those towns everyone aspired to for decades. in the last five years the hard left has taken over and it is pretty much been sick. The worst part is if you ever lived in the place you would realize these new arbiters or truth never came from here. They are all from NY or PA. And even many of the VA politicos are from MN and those types of states.
Funny, you never see a Virginian move to MN and run for Congress. And yes, that jagoff Tim Kaine was born in MN. The point is, why does it always work one way? Leave use alone you jagoffs. Posted by: Quint at May 29, 2020 07:56 AM (hHxp2) 1613

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds. The darkness drops again; but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

I'd type more, but OPSEC. Milwaukee recently introduced ShotSpotter, that system that has microphones all over the city and can triangulate on a gun shot. I can say that ShotSpotter uses AI to recognize and distinguish gunshots from firecrackers, but I can't say if the algs include recognizing suppressed fire.

I don't tweet but I do read twitter. There is a dedicated group of researchers who have been way ahead of the media on the whole Russia hoax and related issues by years. And Trump obviously uses twitter to get his message out when the media won't do it. I don't think the answer to leftist aggression and lawlessness is to run away. It's to enforce the rules and make them play by them. The fact is social media companies have broken the rules for years and are attempting to influence society by enforcing the view of a bunch of 20 something SJWs and they have been remarkably effective.

One of the great ironies is that the Rioters may have one legitimate point - it sure looks like Minneapolis is slow walking any charges against that police officer, and we can only guess why. My guess is that the Police Union is far too strong, and they are dedicated to protecting their own no matter what.
Prosecutors saying that they won't "Rush"charges is them inviting the DOJ to come in and take over this investigation. Posted by: Tom Servo at May 29, 2020 09:10 AM (V2Yro) 1690
