He still wants all the bad things, just for the "other" people, not for him.

There is a path to redemption, but this guy isn’t on it.

Might well be true. Of note, where there is such a law, they'll generally be referring to any weapons, and not only firearms.

Blood spatter analysis isn't quite as nonsense as the rest.

If blood is found underneath an object, you know that the blood got there first, and the object second. If you find a drop of blood among a bunch of fine mist, you may be able to predict that the fine mist is blood from a victim after a gunshot, while the drop might be from someone else, possibly the perpetrator.

Of course there are other observations which are misinterpreted, but the fact remains that blood spatter follows the laws of physics; therefore, it is possible to discover factual information from observing it.

You're going to have to provide a specific citation for that. If you're talking about 2A, that right to bear arms is already not a right to carry anywhere at any time.

Blood spatter analysis isn't quite as nonsense as the rest. There are definitely factual conclusions that can be made based on where blood is found and how it is distributed or shaped.

Polygraph tests are an interrogation tool. While the "results" they produce directly are nonsense, they can be used as a lever to pressure a suspect to confess to a crime - with disregard as to whether they actually committed said crime. People who undergo polygraphs are also known to unload new information immediately after the "test" is over.

Remember, police are allowed to lie to you; you are not allowed to lie to the police. Shut the fuck up. Lawyer.

These cameras disproportionately impact working class individuals, ...

100% true, unless fines are scaled to be proportional with offender wealth.

I only want that guy brought in because he's not mindful of what's between him and his target. He almost shot two protesters.

Bring sporting equipment. Golf, hockey, baseball - all very popular athletic pursuits.

In many states, it is illegal to bring weapons of any kind to a protest or demonstration, often whether said event has permits or not.

Not mutually exclusive.

 
 

We’re excited to announce our newest innovation in trailer security… The Guard Goose 3000! 🦢💨 After years of research, we’ve discovered that a highly trained attack goose is the most effective theft deterrent. Not only do they honk aggressively at intruders, but they’ll also chase them at speeds up to 20 mph! No batteries, no wiring—just pure honking power. Pre-orders start today… if you can handle the honks. 😂 Monthly service fees required of $3000 for the lifetime of the Guard Goose 3000

Not entirely "new," and not mine - but there was some interest in such a thing expressed over the weekend.

That is all.

 

This place came up in conversation over the weekend. I'd made a similar thing back when kbin.social existed. It didn't take off at all then, and went down with the ship.

That was well over a year ago now, and the landscape has changed (in oh so many ways). Seems like a good time to jumpstart something like this again, and so ... here I am.

 

If you know Milo Rossi, you know this will be fun.

Also, my takeaway here is that Meta is turning the propaganda up to eleven.

 

The "Friend" universe would be one where Ross is the only sentient being in existence.

 

President Donald Trump on Monday pardoned Rod Blagojevich, the former Illinois governor who was convicted and sentenced to prison on corruption charges surrounding his time in office.

“It was a sort of a terrible injustice,” Trump said. “They just were after him. They go after a lot of people. These are bad people, the other side.”

Of note, those corruption charges stemmed from Blagojevich very openly trying to sell Obama's vacant US Senate seat in Illinois after the 2008 election.

 

I have no idea how one could find this out.

 

USAID’s website has dropped offline without explanation in the Trump administration's two-week-old funding freeze of U.S. foreign aid and development funding.

 

If I heated it up any longer, it would be a glasswich.
