Here is an article about people who are in jail because they haven’t paid fines stemming from previous criminal convictions. The reporters frame it as debtor’s prison in more than one article, claiming that “they wouldn’t be in jail if they were rich.”
There is a difference between consumer debt and fines. If a person says they can’t pay a fine, what other penalties are available?
I bet the nine arrested here won’t be held for months without bond, nor will they face terrorism charges.
Frank Clark is a defensive end for the Kansas City Chiefs. He has signed a $104 million contract to play a child’s game for five years. This country has been so unfair to him that he decided to take a knee during the National Anthem:
How has it been unfair? Well, they charged him with a felony, to which he pled guilty while he was a student at Michigan, where he was attending college for free. What was his crime, you ask? He forced his way into a fellow student’s dorm and stole his Apple computer. A violent felony because free college wasn’t enough.
He was arrested again later for domestic violence when he beat and choked his girlfriend into unconsciousness.
Yes, this country has been so unfair to Frank Clark. I can see why he would want to protest the injustices that this country has heaped upon him.
So why is this relevant? Frank Clark, a person prohibited from possession of firearms or ammunition was arrested in March in the state of California and charged with criminal possession of an assault weapon. Then he was arrested again just last month for illegally carrying a concealed weapon.
I wonder if he will actually spend time in jail, or if his celebrity status will still grant him a get out of jail free card. Yes – life is so unfair to American athletes. They should all take a knee in protest.
It is a period of civil war. Rebels, striking from a Trump rally, have won their first victory against the evil Progressive Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to Emperor Pelositine’s ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, a fortified Capitol building with enough F15s and nukes to destroy an entire planet. Pursued by Pelositine’s sinister agents who will stop at nothing to recover her stolen laptop, the rebels race home aboard their Harleys, custodians of the stolen plans that can save the people and restore freedom to the nation….
Never mind. It turns out that it was an unassembled LEGO set.
No matter how much the Waitress (ABN) wants to believe that her orders must be obeyed, I am not sitting with my hands on my head for an hour.
I know that the law says it’s a crime to interfere with a flight crew in the performance of their duties. I just don’t see where forcing all passengers to sit with their hands on their head is a part of their duties. If there is a security problem that is that serious, explain why they didn’t just land the plane.
Go fuck yourself. See ya in court.
Matt Damon spent weeks with Trump supporting oil field workers while preparing for his latest movie. He says it was an eye opening experience.
He was surprised to learn that “there’s some good people around — regardless of their politics — and that they’re more nuanced than how they’re made out to be a lot of the time.”
It’s harder to exterminate individuals if you see them as people.
SCOTUS has ruled that the CDC forcing landlords to provide tenants with free houses is an unconstitutional expansion of the CDC’s authority. They also refused to overturn the ban.
So what is the court or the Constitution FOR then? I voted for Trump because I thought he would appoint justices to SCOTUS that were better than the ones Hillary would appoint. I guess I was wrong.
The ATF is going to ban 80 percent firearms and the entire hobby of Personally Made Firearms. There is also likely going to be a new assault weapons ban. I would also say that the likelihood of a civil war is higher now than it has been in over a century.
The only thing that makes sense as a response to all of the above is to buy as many 80 percent receivers as you can, make as many of them into firearms as you can before a ban goes into effect, and then make yourself caches of weapons that are hidden in your AO in areas where you can reach them.
An ideal cache would be a homemade AR, 5 magazines, 150 rounds of ammo, and five one ounce silver coins, all wiped free of prints, all sealed in PVC pipe with desiccant and buried in a location that is in your AO where it likely won’t be accidentally found, but not on your property. I remember when such a setup cost less than $500 total per copy. Hopefully, you took advantage of that. Three or four of those in the area will ensure that you can always access one if needed.
You never know…
