— Ace Love that headline gag by JWF.
"Mostly peaceful" is not peaceful. "Mostly peaceful" demonstrations are low-intensity riots.
WW2, if you think about it, was "mostly peaceful." There were whole swaths of the world in which there was no fighting, wasn't there? Apart from the mostly peaceful Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor (December 7th), and some sporadic naval engagements in South America, the whole North/South America half of the globe was "mostly peaceful."
Except whet it wasn't, of course.
According to a police report, officers arrived at McKeldin Square just after midnight for a report of an assault and spoke to the victim, who said she and 23-year-old Desiree Nicholson had gotten into an argument “because [Nicholson] was not taking care of her cat,” according to report.She said Nicholson kicked her in the stomach, and then stabbed her on her arm and thigh with a knife. The victim was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital for treatment, police said.

It never made any sense to me because the number of wars doesn't really mean anything. By that logic the years 1941-45 were the most peaceful years the world has ever know because there was only one war going on then.

South America was quiet during World War 2 (you're thinking World War 1, with the Battles of the Falklands and River Plate).
NORTH America, however, had the U-Boat campaign in 1942. Not quiet, not quiet at all.

Whomever you were arguing with doesn't understand the Castle Doctrine. It applies to the defense of persons, not property. There is plenty of case law already prohibiting the use of deadly force against perpetrators of property crimes that have not endangered people.
In the scenario outlined, misunderstood youth attempting to steal a car, if the owner shoots the thief from the safety of the owner's house, the car owner is not protected by the Castle Doctrine. However, if the owner goes out to confront the thief and the thief brandishes a weapon (around here, flat-bladed screwdrivers are the tool of choice for committing auto theft) and advances in an agressive manner towards the car owner, the car owner is justified in shooting the thief under the Castle Doctrine.

This just gets worse and worse. I mean really why do these people think directly arming drug cartels is somehow helpful? There has to be some reason beyond arming mexicans to take away arms from Americans.
Anyway, stolen from insty:
“Remember when gun-control activists insisted that loose purchasing regulation of American firearms had led to a massive uptick in arming the drug cartels in Mexico? Advocates demanded action to curtail gun sales in the US, and the Obama administration responded with new efforts at the ATF and Department of Justice — including Operation Fast and Furious. Now it seems that the big spike in arms supply to cartels didn’t come from local gun shops at all, but from the US government approving a rapid increase in direct sales from manufacturers to the Mexican government, whose purchases got diverted to the cartels — a fact known to the Obama administration all along.”

How many times? Can you reload? How about face kicking while he's on the ground? Jus askin'.
Shoot until the threat is stopped -- bad guy either drops to the ground or runs away (don't shoot him in the back unless he also shot at you)
Reloading under the right circumstances is OK. An empty firearm is a not particularly effective club. Don't reload to pump more bullets into the supine body of a perpetrator no longer posing an active threat.
If he's not an active threat, giving him a kick in the face is probably a bad idea.
* Basic Rule: employ deadly force to protect yourself, family or neighbors from serious physical harm (i.e, would a successful attack put you/them in the hospital or kill you/them?), and deadly force is used until the threat is stopped. Once the attack stops, deadly force is not longer justified.

Jon Huntsman, who slammed Rick Perry over the summer for not trusting scientists on climate change, has now developed his own doubts.
“The scientific community owes us more in terms of a better description of explanation about what might lie beneath all of this. But there’s not information right now to formulate policies in terms of addressing it over all, primarily because it’s a global issue,” the former Utah governor said Tuesday at an appearance at the conservative Heritage Foundation.

Skateboarding Drug Dealers Spit On Occupiers, Eat Their Food & Chase Them From Park
It was a rough night for the #Occupy Portland loons. It wasnÂ’t the cops and their pepper spray that chased them from their squatters camp. It was a gang of skateboarding drug dealers.

@40: ""Militant wing of the GOP." They say that like it's a bad thing."
Ahh, yes. The militant wing of the GOP. Piss them off, and they will send you a moderately-strongly worded postcard. Followed two-days later by a 40-page letter of apology for being so darned obstreperous, the public whipping of whatever fool sent the postcard, and pledges to vote for whatever socialst boondoggle you next propose. You know - fuckin' hardcore types.

How do you think we got that black president? We just want to keep the field uneven.

You know the problem was that the hippies wanted the drug dealers to cough up some freebies. Drug dealers are not known for tender hearts and generosity.

No wonder people took drugs in the 60s. If that was my choice in music, I would probably have been stoned too.

Reminds of a conversation I had with a neighbor down the road yesterday. There's a big news story up here, NH/Maine border about an armed, escaped con on the loose. It's been on FNC as well.
You'd think the local news outlets would know their audience before repeating their hysteria.
We were laughing, ya break into my house and you have your choice of high velocity hors d'oeuvres.
Hello, would you like 9mil and knife wounds or 12 gauge and knife wounds?

Most of the big companies have gone to what is known as a "cash balance" plan where they contribute to a fund for retirement account. The employee must also contribute to it as well to get the company contribution.
The thing that most companies are doing now too to save money is totally eliminating medical for retirement. This would have been bad for me as at the time of retirement my wife had already had cancer and it would have been virtually impossible to get private health insurance.

Here's a dismissal for you, EOJ--one I've used twice.
After said lib runs down, just look him/her up and down (disdainfully as possible), and spit on his.her shoes, after calling them an asshole.
Be sure to stay alert, this sometimes brings quite a reaction. If it doesn't, then you own that individual. Also a good idea if you desire some amusement.

Really, why do we call them "drug pushers?" It's not like they force their clientele to purchase their product, after all. They're not "pushing," they're "providing."

Lemme tee this one up for y'all:
Horn fatally shot the burglars, two illegal immigrants from Colombia named Diego Ortiz and Miguel de Jesus. Stephanie Storey, De Jesus' fiancée, wanted to see Joe Horn prosecuted.
"This man took the law into his own hands," she said. "He shot two individuals in the back after having been told over and over to stay inside. It was his choice to go outside and his choice to take two lives
Who has honors?

Posted by: maddogg at December 06, 2011 03:07 PMThe gangs also aren't known for non-violent dialog or restraint when it comes to enforcement. The hippies should count themselves fortunate that the gangs didn't do a drive-by on their tents

I don't disagree. However, I do seem to recall that the shooting was reviewed by a grand jury and that the pro-illegal alien groups were attempting to pressure the prosecutor into filing charges. Fortunately, the grand jury and prosecutor gave a hearty "f*ck you" to the troublemakers.

@ 138 You mean like robbing and beating somebody elses grandmother?
Not a good counterexample - robbing and beating somebody else's grandmother does affect me because the toleration of crime creates societal breakdown that ends up hurting us all.

How about "Pharmaceutical Sales Rep"? Posted by: Empire of Jeff at December 06, 2011 03:19 PM
From a local Portland blog, this is funny how "tough" they sound once they've run away.
"All those people who were out here at 3 am dancing need to decide if it's our park," he said. "You're willing to get beat up by riot cops, but you're not willing to get beat up by gang members?"
Said another occupier, Troy Thompson, the guy who was arrested last night after scaling the second-floor roof of city hall and erecting a Guy Fawkes Christmas tree. "We could smash 'em back, but what would that do to our movement? We're not another street gang. We're not here for a gang war."
