Jeez....
Assassination Attempts?
If someone wanted him dead, he would be dead. A 5 year old girl can take him out. But I'd use a 6 year old girl just to be safe.

Sounds like he's not getting enough attention lately.....again. Apparently staying relevant is an important game for these morons.

Not to mention if someone had tried to kill him 7 times, it would have been in the news, 7 times.

Not defending the guy for domestic abuse but the ex needs jail time. While her ex was in jail for running her off the road, she broke into his apartment and stole his guns so she could turn them in to the police.

He said that if someone were to kill him because of his efforts to curb gun violence, it would most likely be "the stupidest thing they could do to try to end the movement. Because that would make it even more successful in the end. Because it would invigorate us and create f---ing change."

Unless he was stabbed.
Or blunt object.
Or hit with a car.

Oh. THAT'S RIGHT. It DOESN'T HAVE TO BE a gun.
Duh!

It's funny and sad at the same time that Hogg thinks he's so important.

Heaven forbid anything bad happen to that kid, but if something did go down, I'm guessing I'll still be able to go to the bank and mail a letter on his birthday.

He was a dim star to begin with and now he is no longer relevant. No more big productions for the MSM funded by God knows who.

I doesn't help when you get up on your soapbox and spout things that are absolutely false, and with an air of authority to make it even worse. For example, when he said the NRA gets a commission from every gun purchase!

Hah! If that were true, they wouldn't be harassing us for donations all the time. And they'd have enough money to push pretty much any legislation they wanted to get passed or killed.

That’ll solve......someone help me out....

Oh, and with the leftists views on Vietnam.....

 

[2A_Tom]

How about all of the Civil War MOH for picking up the flag when the barer was shot down.

I think the only acceptable long term solution to those people is to allow them to exterminate everyone who isn't connected in some minimal way to one of their designated victim identities (at the time). Once their faceless enemy is eliminated, then they can have an unobstructed view of the mirror and each other as they turn on their comrades and repeat the cycle.

It solves a problem. The problem is, not enough people are aware of the law-makers’ virtue. Solution: There needs to be a way to signal virtue/wokeness.

First thought was this was satire.

Second thought was that they should get that AC thermostat fixed.

 

[Mongo59]

Third thought is the guy on the right needs to get a blanket at least as long as the guy on the left if he is to try and pleasure himself while waiting his turn at the podium...

Internal review found no evidence of wrong doing by the police officers

https://www.courant.com/breaking-ne...l-picard-videotape-arrest-20171102-story.html

"Barone told the investigator that he was trained to always create some sort of documentation — such as issuing an infraction — any time he puts his hands on someone, and "that 'cover your ass' is merely an expression which he has created over the years," according to the investigator's report."

ACLU has filed a lawsuit

https://www.acluct.org/en/cases/picard-v-torneo-jacobi-barone

That lawsuit has been dragging along for a long time now:

Picard v. Torneo

2.5 years later and I don't think they've even made it out of Discovery yet.

Lots and lots of Motions for Extension of Time by the defense (cops) and they are now on their third Asst AG.

The cops tried to use one of their own as an expert witness. Picard's atty is trying to get their testimony thrown out, for good reason:

[65] Jan 24, 2019 MOTION to Strike Testimony of Stavros Mellekas by Michael Picard. (PDF, 11pgs)

[66] Jan 24, 2019 - MOTION to Strike Testimony of Michael O'Hare by Michael Picard. (docs behind PACER paywall)

[67] Jan 31, 2019 - ORDER denying without prejudice 65 Motion to Strike ; denying without prejudice 66 Motion to Strike. The Court will consider whether to strike testimony of witnesses when relevant to an imminent trial or a pending dispositive motion. Signed by Judge Warren W. Eginton

Well, if they want to kick off a shooting war, this is one way to do it.

I'm calling this out as Fake News.

Of course, let's all agree it's a terrible law. It is laying a good amount of the blame for LGBTQ suicide on the steps of the church, rather than accepting that, gee, maybe being LGBTQ carries with it suicidal tendencies on it's own.


But, (A) It's related to conversion therapy, not Sunday sermons. (B) It really doesn't say anything. It's one of those bills that feels good (to some), but there's no law associated with it. It's a resolution. There's no "forcing", but specifically it "calls for".



And why do these articles never link to the actual text of the bill?
https://www.billtrack50.com/BillDetail/1131157


This is the one part of the article that I wholeheartedly agree with:

"It's a foreshadowing of worse things to come," Gannam noted.

"This resolution is perhaps an incremental approach to getting to the same goal, which is to make it illegal to have a conversation in a counseling room that tells a person that if you want to change, that it's possible," he said. And that's what's so dangerous about it. Putting aside the blatant violation of the First Amendment. It just shows the church is under attack."

Which, ironically admits that this bill doesn't force anyone to do anything, contrary to the headline.

Well, if they want to kick off a shooting war, this is one way to do it.

That certainly isn't a Biblical response.

 

[HoughMade]

...and it's a resolution suggesting something. I don't see an enforcement mechanism.

THAT is violation of "separation of church and state" in its form envisioned by the Founding Fathers. You can't violate the 1st Amendment any more than that resolution if it can actually compel the churches to obey.
