    She worked at SS before going to Pepsi.
    Then why go back to a lower paying job? I’m assuming. Wasn’t there another person making big money, then dropped down to a lowly prosecuter with way less pay, then prosecuted Trump with their new found lower pay job? Almost like it was all planned out…?

    This is what an actual incitement to violence looks like.
    Coming in late to this discussion, but, I don't think we can hold this _particular_ statement as "proof" of inciting violence, when we argued that Sara Palin's same comment wasn't an incitement that caused Gabby Gifford to get shot. It's a common enough phrase that it shouldn't be ascribed to any particular call to malice without considerably more "zip" added to it.

    We assume the moves were voluntary. Maybe fired from Pepsi for gross incompetence, but still perfectly fine for a government job?

    With an auto winder, my canon ae1-program got 4 frames per second.
    How fast do you need?
    That's one frame every 250 mS. A lot happens in a quarter of a second between frames. One of the first things learned when doing significant event candid and action photography is having 10-20 mS wiggle room to catch action at . I used multiple cameras at events, including an OM-2n, OM-2s and an OM-4. Couldn't be done using a winder which was 4 or 5 frames per second with the bevy of OM bodies I had (been over two decades). With film, you got a pile of burned film with zero yield. Unless you had a bulk film back (which required dark room loading from bulk film reels) you got 36 frames before a reload.

    Spin forward to current technology. Digital SLRs can't fire successive frames fast enough with the physical mirror travel required between frames. I've got a couple mirrorless now - one with interchangeable lenses -- take and SLR, get rid of the mirror and use the sensor. The other is a sub-compact (almost pocket size); similar technology without interchangeable lenses. They can't fire fast enough. Did a few experiments with both. What you get with them in continuous fire mode is dozens of photos, a culling nightmare, and none optimal except by pure chance; a crap shoot. Shutter release timing is everything. Ask the long-time wedding and sports event photographers. They watch body language and postures to predict what will happen next. The mantra remains "f//8 and be there". Some photos, such as the one with the bullet whizzing by, are pure serendipity. That's not the "air" behind it. That's how far it visibly traveled while his shutter was open.

    Cut my teeth on completely manual cameras in my latter teens, including a couple SLRs with internal TTL meters, but no auto-exposure. Another skill gained with experience was knowing what aperture and shutter speed combinations were typical various lighting conditions and setting them in advance.

    While I agree, the point of bringing it up is to get the talking heads to defend the behavior this time showing (yet again) their hypocrisy.

    Hasn't worked yet, but :wallbash:

    So she can parlay the expanded responsibility to a higher paying private sector job.
