Hilariously, the article called it a public safety issue, as if having some poor guy in jail for drug charges in there for 55 days more would somehow "rehabilitate" him. I say we need more math errors in prison software.

That'll keep you nice and docile, citizen. Just like FICO keeps you broke and in debt in the USA (all according to FED/Banker/Insane Keynesian plan).

Note the last line in the article:

Researchers cautioned the Times that the increased homicide rate was not shown to be tied to the changes in the law.

Stay Classy.

Yet again, the NZ government bends over for Uncle Sam.

Now that nobody is paying attention, it'll be easier to throw him under the jail.

Was a fun Feens episode. The title alone is worth it.

They figured that hating Fascists == Commie even during the war, tipping their hand that they understood what WWII was actually about (not fighting fascism, as that FDR was all about that).

A sure sign of tyranny. No wonder Megadeth is releasing a new album.

The Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity have the right questions as usual.

If it can stand against the laws already against it, then there's nothing stopping F-Troop from just redefining all guns as NFA, and forcing all owners to get FFLs.

I'll bet the Greeks made it too.

Bullish

Of course, it will never pass, as it explicitly emasculates EOs (which guarantees veto).

The first successful pogo rocket! What an accomplishment.

Quite the celebration over this. Saving ~$16 Million per launch is pretty huge.
Orbcomm must be quite happy with this -- having a global satellite network for trucks and construction equipment is a big deal.

Good. It was a joke and a scam from the beginning - may as well not waste the money.

Dempsey formed a secret alliance with Putin and Assad, being rightly horrified by the administration's ISIS alliance. Max Fischer is already out with a hit piece, despite being wrong last time on the Bin Laden story (which he fails to acknowledge any truth to despite Hersh's claims now being 100% backed up and vindicated). Moon of Alabama has a much more balanced look on things. Personally, I doubt you could obtain anything more than an "anonymous source" on this, as if you piped up on this, you'd likely be charged with treason or at least JFK'd.

Kerry: Peace higher priority than Assad going.

Obummer: F THAT NOISE, GOTTA KILL!!!!

Nice to know they have juries, disappointing to hear they're as bloodthirsty as everywhere else. And their Police sound monstrous.

That isn't the flashlight, honey...it's your teeth! No way any sane person is going to visit -- kids are still being born without brains downstream of that place.

Quite the endorsement there.

At extreme cost. I'm seriously doubting they'll ever make a dent in the Houthi stronghold in the north, short of carpet bombing the place...which they can do based on the amount of bombs they just bought.

Mainstream Sunni doctrine is wholly illiberal; if their culture is to be compatible with western classical liberal tradition, a "protestant reformation" needs to happen in Islam. Given the political corruption surrounding the Islamic based states currently and in the past, that's eminently sensible. And amongst the better educated western Muslims, much of this work has already happened; If our governments quit meddling, such a reformation might just have started to take hold. As things are, it'll be another half century before it does, or more, if our governments keep meddling.

LOL. New York attitude to the core.
