There are 5 basic rules for guns:

  • Treat every gun as if it were loaded.
  • Always point your gun in a safe direction.
  • Never point your gun at anything you don't intend to shoot.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to shoot.
  • Be sure of your target and what's beyond.

What I posted was a subset of the five then alluded to the full list.

After Israel bombed an UNRWA School, BTW. Since the headline went out of its way to obfuscate that.

Now watch as nearly half the voting population accepts this behavior.

There are VoIP options, sure, but not the actual phone bands.

Except the actual phone part.

It's way more than just trigger discipline. There's the traditional rules of course:

  • Never point your gun at something you do not intend to kill
  • Be sure of your target and what's beyond
  • Trigger discipline

But there's also reasonable shit beyond the 5 basic rules:

  • Don't willingly put yourself in a situation where use of a gun may be warranted.
  • Property isn't worth killing over, especially in situations where you had to go out of your way to put yourself in perceived danger to protect it.
  • Don't block in the person you are trying to convince to leave.
  • People with guns commit more acts of violence than those who don't. Owning a gun is an irresponsible choice. There are more and there are less responsible gun owners, but owning a gun puts you and those around at a greater risk of violence. When all you have is a hammer ...

Oh s---, my gun just went off

Weird, I'd been told they don't do that.

Do you find it too cluttered? Do you experience physical pain from being cramped after working there for a while?

We're not gonna be able to tell you your tolerance levels.

Your car should not be in the same cost area (or more) of your annual salary.

properly documenting the people who enter our country is vital for providing public services ...

Not really. We can track that the same way we track non-immigrants: census, job reports, bank accounts, change of address forms, buying private data hoards.

Frankly I'd be in favor of just letting people in and letting them legally work. Our current system allows people in but then they are just expected to lie around waiting for permission to stay. Meanwhile they aren't contributing to the broader economy. Let them work while they're here and more of them will get off the streets, there will be more money going towards taxes, and there will be a broadening pool of people that can actually afford to buy things.

Cause Trump is incapable of admitting fault. He wanted his supporters to kill his last VP because Pence recognized that America didn't want Trump.

Cool! Yet another way to have Google loop the same 20 songs tangentially related to the artist I searched for without actually playing the artist I searched for.
