    It would look bad on Twitter to get beat down with a loaf of deli bread.

    I share the pain with you. Trump found his "expert" in the pillow guy. Guess Democrats should find a blanket guy. One that definitely takes no sheet!

    I know this could appear to be a blanket statement but right now America needs a Comforter In Chief!

    Man who was arrested in DC today for having a loaded gun and nonworking security pass while trying to get past a security checkpoint.

    I believe him.

    the reporter left out what occurred when the police, FBI, or secret service found out when they talked to the security firm that hired the guy.

    They did. But given that he was released fairly quickly, I'd say that they don't think he's a threat. That said, seems a bit of a gun nut.

    The Radicalization of Kevin Greeson — ProPublica

    This one worries me because I have heard it from so many people that I know:

    This country's truest morons of morons believe that Antifa is worse than the white supremacists. FBI data disproves that whole canard.

    I'm on fence with this guy (the one stopped with the guns and ammo). Initial reports made him seem like a nut but some of his story seems plausible so I will wait to see what the investigation finds.

    I will say the two things that are bullshit.
    1. Forgetting about a weapon you have in your vehicle or on your person. If you don't have the mental capacity to remember you have a weapon, you shouldn't own a weapon. This line seems to be a favorite with idiots trying to carry thru TSA.
    2. Not knowing the law in DC. I sometimes carry and I used to travel a lot in my last job, often by car. I damn well knew which states around me had reciprocity and which didn't and what I had to tell the cop in the event I was pulled over. Again, if you can't figure out law to carry a weapon, you shouldn't have a weapon.

    A video worth watching. Looking over Cruz's notes in the Senate Chambers "He was going to sell us out the whole time! Wait, this is a good thing!" Rummaging through desks and paperwork taking pictures of documents.

    I don't know, 500 rounds sounds like an awful lot for traveling to and from work. Was he transporting it for his job? I can see if you have CWP and it's loaded, but 500? :rolleyes:

    I understand, it seem like a lot and I am def giving him the benefit of a doubt. When I drive out to my property in OK, I will have 500+ rounds of ammo. Just a "range bucket" of 9mm is 350 rounds and I will shoot thru that in about three days.

    I have to think his story is somewhat legit if authorities deemed he could be released on his own recognizance.
    I am glad he was arrested for being ignorant.

    How to totally screw up your life is short order. No matter how this turns out it will be with him for the rest of his life.

    It's scary that just watching Fox and then Newsmax can turn someone from an Obama supporter into thinking that he should be hanged.

    It’s the exact same process for Al Qeda and ISIS. Radicalization is radicalization.
