Not long to go now until the war starts...the Biden/Harris "War on Guns".
Should be 4 years of riveting entertainment.

A man on YouTube explained it all...taking what's on the Biden/Harris website and analysing the policies.

Apparently there's some idea about "fire three shotgun rounds in the air to scare away home invaders"...or scare away someone.
I'll have to check when I get to the desktop computer and find the website the guy was referring to..

The first thing I thought was: How are you supposed to blast home invaders back out the door when your guns are locked away in "Fort Knox" in your home?

Motherfuvker I live in goddamn Southeast Washington DC and the only home invaders I’ve experienced were cops with wrong address. They were very polite and cordial and we had them set up a front and back security cam.

In America 7 homes are broken into every minute.
According to the FBI, you can expect 1 in every 36 homes to be robbed.

Estimates show that 500,000 to 3 million defensive gun uses occur each year.

2.5 million victims use a gun to scare their offender ..almost 5 law-abiding citizens a minute.
Victims only shoot their offender 8% of the time.

Guns are great, for self defence.

Parler took down the calls to hang Mike Pence.

Now they will want to hang the CEO of Parler, next. And it must be time to form a new social network, as this one is too pansy-assed for them.

The only thing that surprised him was that there was no army, that the numbers were so small.

Apparently, one of the reasons that it didn't go off as a bigger 'bang' is that Trump didn't tell them specifically what to do, so despite having maps of the tunnels and everything, they didn't really know what they were "supposed to" do.

Trump is still the most mainstream republican based on what he’s stolen, defiled, wrecked, and lied about. He’s no different than any republican before him since Eisenhower and no different from any jackass who sucks off enough fools to become leader of the republicans in future.

I disagree many times over in many ways. Ford, Reagan, and Bush I were all quite different from Trump from the outset. And Bush II ended up being different, even if he didn't start that way.

Most of the GOP leaders have certainly sought to enrich the wealthy and had many of the same control issues at heart. But they were far less concerned with self-aggrandizement or personal wealth than Trump. Nor did they do nepotism even remotely the way he did.

Not all forms of corruption are the same.

And the quickest easiest way to see a difference is to look at how Bush II welcomed Obama to the White House compared with Trump's treatment of Biden.

In 6 days, we will hit 400,000 dead (using Worldometers - 3 days later with Johns Hopkins' #s). A month after that, at the latest, we will hit 500,000 dead. And 600,000 the month after that day.

It's better if the IHME prediction is right and the rate of daily deaths starts to plummet in two days. I just can't see how that would happen, as it is not predicated on the vaccine's being rapidly deployed and would seem to ignore the impact of Christmas/New Year's.

Law enforcement treats leftist groups more aggressively than it does right wing groups.

It isn't just race, either, for all that that, too, exists.

It's not an opinion, it's a pattern. It's persistent. And it's a problem.

Or, as I have said before, we have a police problem.

Smart people would keep them well away from the area then.

No police problem in Seattle, the leftist groups were allowed to paint all over the roads and take over much of the city...basically do as they pleased.

A while back, we were discussing the impact of race on COVID-19 deaths and the question was asked (by the usual suspects) if there was evidence that Blacks were getting inferior treatment.

And as usual, it didn't matter what the answer was, as they were just plain going to blow it off. Duh, Josh!

However, it turns out that racial bias shows up in unexpected ways, too:

The Pulse Oximeters have built-in racial bias.
