They’ve rejected reality and created their own. They didn’t lose, they seceded. Their reality is almost quite literally made up to suit whatever they want whenever they want to.

If they required the trains to be serviced by manufacturer they should have written it into a mandatory service contract at time of sales.

just let them fade into obscurity.

If only they would do just that. But they keep finding fellow assholes that will give them money and platforms to spew their vitriol.

And all the lawyers and opponents are salivating at the prospect of getting in the way of the project and miring it in profitable legal battles.

Well, law abiding citizens shouldn’t shoot up schools, concerts, or businesses. But that doesn’t matter when it’s a right to own guns, because somehow magically a law abiding citizen with guns suddenly isn’t so law abiding, but gun owners never really want to deal with that. Wash their hands and walk away.

Yeah. You don’t know anything about my firearms knowledge, and that’s fine with me. I don’t give a damn about some dick measuring contest over whatever is in someone’s arsenal.

What oversight? Most rural places you pass a nominal background check at best. Buy your gun, and nobody bothers you about it again. Urban areas? Yeah, more rules; but again, fill out the paperwork, pass the background checks, buy your gun and that’s it. The majority of rules apply to handguns. I can head on down to my local gun shop and pick up a deer rifle with almost no hassle at all. Or maybe you mean a tax stamp? Same story. Fill out the paperwork, pass the check, pay the money, get the gun.

Yet again, nobody pays attention to what you do with the gun once you have it. That’s the oversight part I’m talking about. Nobody is making you re-test for anything. There’s no license to maintain to own a long gun or even a handgun in the vast majority of places.

I’m not even going to touch CCW because that’s not buying a gun or owning a gun, that’s how you carry it.

What is apparent is that you haven’t a clue what real oversight is. Gun ownership in the rest of the civilized world is highly regulated, licensed, tested, and monitored. So is how the firearm is stored, where and when it can be transported and used.

So “get outta here with that nonsense” when you consider a single background check or a tax stamp “monitoring” your ownership.

Trump always lies about what he’s done.

He never lies about what he wants to do.

If he says he wants to be a dictator, then that’s exactly who he wants to be.

It’s not a mental health issue. There are people with mental health issues all over the civilized world and those countries don’t deal with mass shootings weekly, even if the citizens are allowed access to guns. It’s the relatively unrestricted access to firearms with minimal to no oversight of gun owners, and no rules to secure said firearms.

Edit: well, here we go again.

They’re angry they weren’t hurting the right people.

Could Google and ad services sue Firefox and extension writers?

I mean, nothing pisses off corporations more than someone coming between them and revenue, and the courts tend to agree.

They should make a law that it is illegal to require a judge to state their political affiliation. If a judge is considered for a higer court their record should be used to determine their suitability.

Modern day DMC DeLorean. All the disappointment and the crazy CEO to go along with it. Maybe when Tesla folds up they can get a movie made about the truck like Back to the Future. Wonder what the movie will be called?

“Dish” is very old slang for “attractive.”

This is her, much younger.

Certainly “touched by the gods” in the anachronistic term to mean nuts.

I don’t think Pelosi was above being petty. She was a dish when she was younger, and AOC is pretty easy on the eyes too. AOC is no shrinking violet and speaks her mind. I would not be surprised at all if Pelosi was trying to keep an attractive younger “upstart” in her place.

You’re just making stuff up now.

Again, reinterpreting what I said in a limited context to hyperbole.

No, both sides are not the same.

Clinton being friends with him is indicative of what her foreign policy was/would have been. Have you forgotten her work?

Exercise some nuance, man.

It’s not meant to be. It’s an inference that the Cold War anti-commie imperialist way of thinking never stopped. As much as we’d like to think that there is dynamic change with each new president, there really isn’t that much other than the surface diplomacy. The US has been conducting geopolitical business very much the same as it has been for multiple decades. That should be pretty obvious when you view our involvement in world events.

Exactly right. The next best step would be for businesses to install them for employees and customers, but that’s a big expense and maintenance problem.

I really don’t know what the answer is. I’m completely for EV, but the unpredictable ,or lack of availability, of charging is a big deal.

He’s probably not all that worried about Xwitter. He’s got billions to spare. Be like wrecking your Ferrari, blaming the wet road when you were just going too fast, and still having 4 more in the garage.

He’s just worried about saving face and how the boards of his companies are going to view his behavior.
