I wonder what makes them quail so much at the thought of law-abiding citizens having the ability to defend themselves.Holly Morelock, who works in the small town, said neighbors there typically keep their weapons handy. “I feel like it was a good thing. When you mess around out here in the county, most of us here have carry permits and carry (weapons),” Morelock said. “And it’s our job to protect our families and our homes. “And I’m very proud of the family ... because they didn’t just turn around and mind their own business. They did what they had to do to protect everybody else around.” On Friday afternoon, a sign was put up in front of the property to address the barage of media that had assembled. "We were happy to help, but please no media at this time. Thank you." Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

I wish the two would have made a move on the armed citizens. Scumbags killed two innocent guards and don't deserve to live another second. The death penalty should be applied in less than a week in a case like this.

This is assuming it was his fault. Posted by: Mike at June 16, 2017 07:28 PM (c056A) It is his fault. By definition. The navy has way, way more officers than it knows what to do with, so it doesn't take very much to end your career. They call it The Vertical Chop. The captain will lose his job, as will his boss and his boss's boss. They usually let you serve out your 20 unless it was a zipper control problem, but his career is DOA. I used to work at a place where careers went to die. Every 18 months we'd get a new captain doing his damnest to rehabilitate his career and not a single one succeeded.

do you mean forced retirement at the same rank and pay? A dishonorable discharge? Possibly jail time? This is assuming it was his fault. . . .Doesn't make a difference who was at fault.....the CO and all of his Senior Officers and Chiefs careers are over. Unless they were extremely negligent nothing legal will happen but their careers are over no matter what happened. It's jut the way it is. I had a buddy who was an Engineering Officer on the Newport News when it hit a Japanese Merchant Ship in the Hormuz Straits. That boat got tore apart and had to transit back to the US on the surface. He wasn't even on duty but he got relieved and sent to shore Duty in Groton to teach and got passed over for Lt. Cmdr. three times and they forced him out even though he was 1 of 25 O-3's at Sub School for three years straight on his Fitrep.

By the way, this just goes to show the criminal element aren't exactly the brightest bulbs. I was thinking to myself, "Man, if I were them, I'd head up north. And east. Yeah, in rural areas of states like NY the people got plenty of guns but really that would be the way to go given their governments' hostility to their citizens' right to self-defense."
Instead, they go to TN, bristling with guns with a government that understands if law enforcement is buttressed by an armed citizenry, the good guys' chances of success are exponentially greater. Here's hoping the prison guards in GA give those jokers...a little extra attention.

So shit, and words of that nature.
My computer up and died last week. Just stopped working entirely. After much digging around, experimentation, and beer drinking, I've isolated the fault to the motherboard...which died in so spectacular a fashion that it took out my 8 core amd processor, and a 256 GB OCX SSD drive with it. The MOBO is still under warranty, though it's not longer in production. The CPU, and SSD were both warranted for 3 years, and I'm SOL on those. The SSD that failed was my boot drive too...so that particularly hurts. New MOBO, new proc, (Well....used, actually, 4 core, 3.6 Ghz stock, OC to 4.1 Ghz so far, cost me 20 dollars), and reusing my still good 256 GB OCX SSD, freshly formatted, and repurposed as my new boot drive. I have two 640 GB WD drives that I'll configure as a 1.2 TB RAID 0 drive once I get all the Windows updates done.....which are taking forever. I'll be a happy, happy man, once I can get back on my 'real' computer, and shove this laughable laptop back in it's bag.

One thing in the collision incident is that US people alwaysa stay on the right side of the road, while Japanese people stay to the left (like the bloody Brits). The natural reaction in a collision situation is to veer to the right. But if the freighter in this incident veered left, then you have a potential problem.

98 British parole officer tells former jihadi Islam is a religion of peace.
Jihadi replies, "No. It's a religion of war." http://tinyurl.com/yaykym9x Posted by: Bicentennialguy at June 16, 2017 07:42 PM (nILVB) It's funny how the only people who say Islam is a religion of peace are the ones who don't actually know jack shit about it. I can forgive GWB for calling it that because he could hardly go to war with every Muslim in the world (particularly when we were shipping supplies through Pakistan). But normal people can call a spade a spade. Posted by: Ace's liver at June 16, 2017 07:44 PM (Xuv2G) 108

What happens to the CO in an I incident like this? By ending his career do you mean forced retirement at the same rank and pay? A dishonorable discharge? Possibly jail time? This is assuming it was his fault. Posted by: Mike at June 16, 2017 07:28 PM (c056A) In fact, it IS his fault, along with the rest of the ship's leadership. If they'd conducted proper and rigorous training, then the crew would never have let the collision happen. That's the rationale, and in the military context its absolutely correct.

Whole Foods isn't exactly a low cost provider though. Will that many people be willing to pay premium prices plus delivery? I don't see it. Posted by: Country Boy at June 16, 2017 08:14 PM (Jcg9Q) The thing is, one of the big appeals of Whole Foods is that you're SEEN shopping at Whole Foods.

I referred to this incident earlier, but the story is worth reading:
http://tinyurl.com/y955gbxh Excerpt: "Ned Alday, 62; his brother Aubrey, 57, and sons Jerry, 35; Jimmy, 30, and Chester, 25, were shot to death in Jerry's trailer as they arrived singly or in pairs May 14, 1973. Jerry's wife, Mary, 26, was raped there, driven to a field six miles away, raped and sodomized again and shot twice in the back." It would be reasonable to assume that these guys were all executed, right? Heh. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at June 16, 2017 08:43 PM (ZO497) 290

This whole process has only taken two days so far...much better than I'd expected. Service pack 2 is installed, and now it's on to Windows 10.
Before I go....the one really nice thing I liked about Vista was the side bar. I loved having all that info right there, available. Sadly, Microsloth realized that they'ed accidentally produced something that people liked, and killed it. Sure, they blamed the hackers....but instead of patching their own leaky boat, they simply scuttled it, and pretended it never existed. That's not to say that Win10 doesn't have it's own redeeming qualities...it does! Most of it's colors exist within the human visual spectrum. It hasn't recently triggered a human extinction event. Unlike Windows XP, it has never been accused of making efficient use of a single core processor. It reserves 3.8 GB of system RAM just to maintain detailed records of it's amazingly fabulous finger nails. Never trimmed, ever, in case you want to check! The other 12 GB of RAM are restricted for system utility use, leaving you, the user, a whopping 0.2 GB of RAM for applications like Windows Notepad. You're welcome.

I've said it before, and it's relevant here. If I'm unarmed and minding my own business while walking through a crowd of thousands of random people and, oh, it turns out everyone in that crowd has a gun except for me... I'm not the least bit worried. In fact, I would feel absolutely safe in a crowd like that.
Anybody who tries anything is going to be shot by everybody. You can't be much safer in a crowd than that! Posted by: Prothonotary Warbler at June 17, 2017 12:28 AM (3YxFh) Processing 0.02, elapsed 0.0372 seconds. |
