Rule #1 - Don't eat pickled eggs and work in very tall buildings!

Rule #2 - If someone in your 93rd floor office is eating pickled eggs...take the stairs!

You intolerant of New Yowkers brah?

I think that's actually part of the issue. New Yorkers are just a different breed of critter! They're brash, rude, and crude (like Trump) and they tend to tell you exactly what's on their mind (like Trump). They are also very independent, very proud of who they are, very friendly (in their own way), very compassionate when it is called for, and very capable.

When I drove a truck, believe it or not, this 'Bama boy used to look forward to going inside the city. It's a different world, and I always got a free meal. People would buy me dinner just to get to hear me talk!

I had a gig as a new kid fresh out of college running a bio assay in Elizabeth across the bay in NJ. They look down on you if you can't give them hell back when they mess with you. If you back down they will sure call you a pussy or worse and right to your face. You have to at least dish some out to just be allowed to hang around which is not my style. I got better at dishing it back by the time I headed back south.

Political parties are the new religions and the dems have declared jihad on the repubs / Trump. Long gone are the days of disagreeing but having civility.

I'd rather vote directly on the issues than having to rely on a corruptable human to speak for me.

In this Republic we could do that if use the same Electoral College idea to balance it out so the brainwashed coastal cities don't vote farmers off the continent, and sooo much more good they would stomp out if given half a chance like the right to carry weapons for those who are innocent citizens.

Might have been because you were in Jersey at the time. There's a bit of competition there.

Me, I never had that problem... of course, I'm not just Southern, I'm a redneck. We already spout back when we're challenged.

You know, now that you mention those things. I think you have a point. Rednecks ARE a bit like NYorker and Jersey boys.

First off I'm glad this crazy was arrested...however here's the rub...

Say this guy is a left wing crazy and he has guns...if we take his guns away we save lives, right? But we also violate the constitution. Which is the lesser of two evils?

Yeah, but threatening to KILL people is a whole other kind of threat from threatening to fart in an elevator!

People generally tend to take those kinds of threats seriously.

Oh I agree. That's next level stuff and definitely warranted the legal response. He deserves what consequences may befall him.

If he is charged with a felony, he is no longer a law abiding citizen and revokes his right to own those guns.

It's common sense gun laws.

GoFundMe accounts being set up for those who hurt Republicans.

This bch Craxine Waters is more trouble than she's worth..

So let's see. Sarah Palin gets blamed for the Gifford shooting and everyone lost their collective $&!@ over that. Let's see the left defend this one. Oh wait, they're already here, doing just that.

Wow, talk about a hypothetical! What if he grows talons and wings, how do we stop him then?

But, that aside, we do not take his guns away... because to do that, we also have to take away everyone else's guns, so there will be no one to stop him when he gets guns illegally and goes on his killing spree.

Wrong. Anyone can be charged with a felony and keep their guns. They are no longer allowed to own firearms IF they are CONVICTED.

Well Redneck, I didn't see anything mythical in my post. I think it's a pretty legitimate question, not a mythical one.

And thank you for part deux of your answer. Guns rights > lives in your opinion.

He can still 3d print or cnc mill one.

or the lazy option go to a street corner and buy one out of the trunk of a car.

Our computer and communications technology could very easily provide this capability.

Unfortunately the devil is in the details. There is a vast array of security problems that have to be solved before this can really be implemented.

Imagine if some hacker team released some malware that hijacks voters' computers when they are voting. The bad guys can make a few subtle changes here and there and possibly alter the outcome of the vote; and their actions may not be detected for quite some time, if ever.

I agree that it would be great to get the politician out of the equation. But there are a few things that have to be worked out first. So, for now we're stuck with the corruptible human.

However, perhaps once we reach the technological singularity and we merge our consciousness with our machines, we'll be able to more directly participate in the direction of our community. But, I doubt I'll see that in my lifetime.

The crime, the intentions, the actions of the man are wholly his own. Trying to blame Waters for this man’s decisions is wrong at best, superstitious at worst.

a reply to: kelbtalfenek

Sounded pretty mythical to me, at least in the sense it did not reflect reality.

Guns rights > lives in your opinion.

Guns rights? Guns aren't people and they aren't sentient. Guns don't have rights. People have rights, like to own a gun.

Gun rights = lives, in reality.

When dems lose a race they lose their #ing minds, why is that??
