Banks,  can you hook me up with someone who has a space laser?   There's a spot in Ohio I want to zap.

I heard that a Mohel in Wyoming is retiring and has a Rothschild XTC-15, used only for the occasional bris and igniting charcoal briquettes. Starts a nice fire. I'll see what I can find out.

Ah, the infamous Frank Zapper model!

Is that the one with a dynamo hum?  A dangerous machine -- ended the life of Felix Frankfurter.

It failed in the senate last year when there was a GOP majority.  Why did some GOP senators vote against it then? Because the bill could criminalize doctors who remove a nonviable fetus and is also unnecessary — not only because a live birth after an abortion attempt is an extremely unlikely scenario but also because laws already exist to protect an infant in this instance anyway.    Context,  old chap,  is important.

Context?
What kind of answer is that to my post?

Another real good interview from today, this time from FOX


https://www.foxnews.com/media/mike-rowe-price-of-safety-devastating


"Risk is the only four-letter word that matters," Rowe agreed. "It impacts and informs every decision we make, from driving a car to walking around without a mask or wearing one mask or two masks."

"We're starting to see," Rowe concluded, "if you elevate the business of staying alive to the very, very top of all things, then the only thing you'll ever do is stay alive. You won't go anywhere. You won't try anything or build anything."


Very well said.

I'd say the RW mocking victims is nothing new.   We've had decades of police preying on people of color who are then denigrated for "victim mentality" when they make the slightest objection to brutal treatment or profess any fear/anger. 

Social justice, as a cluster of hotbutton issues,  isn't going away, no matter how much the Right Wing mock victims of injustice or make up lies.

Louis Gohmert is complaining that he only went to the bathroom, so he should not have had to be screened again.

If Michael Corleone was searched on his way back from the bathroom Captain McCloskey would  still be alive.

Judging by the recent crap stained posts of Red and Kid, it was another bad bad day for the GOP.

Biden’s sensible approach to government is steadily flattening the blood flecked trolls on this forum.

So the Trumpeters planted some time bombs amidst the Federal gov't.

They made some last week secret deals with ICE and DHS pro-Trump unions, including a provision that the unions would be consulted for 180 days before any changes to their department's regulations could be approved.  Why not 1,460 days?
https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-biden-cabinet-arizona-coronavirus-pandemic-crime-b93078022e6dfdcb1d21abd93adc7dfe

I doubt this will hold up in court.  I assume Prez Biden could just abrogate these last minute union deals citing national security concerns.

Does make it clear that the Biden Admin needs to comb through all Fed activity from the past few months (and more) in all department looking for rigged ish along these lines.
