I’ve said it before:

Either you are an adult at 18 or you aren’t. Pick one.

IF you can sign contracts at the age of 18, join the military at that age, get married without parental consent, vote at 18, etc. then that is the age that the law says you are a functioning adult.

Therefore, you should be able to buy beer, wine and sprits at that age, purchase (and carry) a handgun at that age, and in all ways enjoy the rights and privileges of being an adult. No other ages for certain things like buying booze and carrying  a handgun. Either you are an adult at 18, or you aren’t. Choose one.

If not, then you should be kept as a legal child until age 21 or whatever age it is that these things become legal for young adults.  I have no real objection if the law should be changed to 21, or some other (reasonable) age, as long as ALL the rights, responsibilities, and privileges convey at that same time. One age for adulthood.

Interesting

Watching the Talking Heads this morning opine on the Trump indictment.

 

None of them knew what the indictment actually said, so everything was speculation (and hope and glee in they eyes of the Blue side).  Both sides spoke at length, but it meant nothing. Just words.

 

At the end of it, they, none of them, could say anything substantive. Neither side could do more than speculate.

They just don’t know.

We will see:

Look: I am not a fan of TheDonald. Prolly won’t vote for him again. (Only voted for him last time as the lesser of the two weasels) I’d much prefer if the RNC folks found someone that is actually worth supporting….Rather than an ineffective ex-New York (democrat) Businessman who didn’t get the job done due to lack of support from the RNC and our legislators)

But I have questions: When are they gonna stop the persecution? Do they really think that this will keep him from running (and/or winning?) (I mean, it is doubtful that they can make the whole vote “irregularities” thing work again….(Even though Joe got more votes than any other Candidate in History or something”)…so they gotta find another way, I guess..

How come William Jefferson Clinton’s hush money legal settlement to Paula Jones was legal and Donnie’s payment to some porn star wasn’t?

Next thing it will be a slew of “Conspiracy” charges….. Those always work, for a while

Is it true that they fear him so much that they won’t stop charging him until he stops running?

When will enough be enough?

Will the Democrats/Soros folks make this one stick? Or will this just be another attempt at bad publicity for Mr. Trump?

 

It was funny watching the Talking Heads on the Media wet their panties telling us about his indictment though. Didn’t even bother to hide their glee at the thought of him being handcuffed and perp-walked. So much for impartial news…..

 

So is it like a parking meter?

Only for gas and electricity?

Nearly 100,000 Prepayment Meters Forcibly Installed In UK Homes

Do you feed it banknotes every morning, or coins by the hour or only when the little red flag pops up and the lights go out?

If anyone in the UK can tell us how this works, please let us know.

 

Here in the US, the folks who don’t pay their heat bill are excused during winter months, (at least on public utilities) and then, if they are a Privileged Race, they get the bill excused. (at least in Blue cities)….If you are rural and use propane, then yer fucked.

Piece of history gone

Seems that the first Wright Bros. factory has burned.

 

Irreplaceable bit of history gone. A shame, really.

Some are saying it was in the way of some new development and that is the reason for the fire. I dunno.

 

just watched the released video

of the police response in Nashville.

I don’t know how long, exactly, it took them to respond to the school, but once they got there, they didn’t hesitate….rather they did what they are paid to do. (you can find it on Youtube and about a thousand other websites)

They put themselves in harms way to protect the citizens (and children) of the community. They were smart about it, and they followed their training…..But..

THEY DID NOT HESITATE.

And for that reason, they are indeed heroes.

Much more so than the cowards in Uvalde. All of the police that didn’t respond that day.

 

That was fast

Oddly, they have already released interior and exterior camera footage of the Nashville school shooter. (Or at least some of it)

Odd, It usually takes a week or more.

Of course, this Nashville police department doesn’t, apparently, have something to hide, no reason to be ashamed of their actions, so there is that…

So you gotta wonder how

They are gonna spin this one:

Trans female former student, 28, armed with two assault rifles and a handgun, kills three nine-year-old kids and three staff members at Nashville private Christian school

I mean, trans woman (or whatever)….Chick who wanted to be a guy?

Anyway, attacks a CHRISTIAN, Church-run school.

Hate crime? If not, why not? If it were a black school, it would be a hate crime. If it were a Jewish school it would be a hate crime. Plus the trans woman-religious school connection.

Either way, perp has attained room temperature so she/he/her/him(or whateverthefuck pronoun) won’t be passing on those defective genes.

It’ll be interesting to see how they media plays this.

Of course, “more gun control would have stopped this” (not). Plus “Assault Rifle” and all that…..Perhaps we need Trans Control or better mental health resources instead.

ETA: Innit interesting that this shooting happened (and is publicized  by the Media) just after Slow Joe and the Democrats began their latest push for Gun Control? Terribly convenient, eh? Funny how these things all seem to work like that…..
