Make em eat Taco Bell

in the area around the Astrodome. I appreciate the work, especially painting around the corners, the skill. love me some Vernon Perry! no words needed:

at this point, i'm favoring BANNING all guns, AR15, hanguns, hunting rifles, shotguns, lady pistols. Everything. No more making or import. No home raids, but shut down the industry and close all gunshops. All internet sales will be monitored and websites shut down. No hunting anymore, go fishing. The End.

oh i agree, no reason to have AR15 style guns at all. BAN THEM. *But there remains the minor detail of the other 20,000+ annual deaths by handgun.

well i was just making up that 90% number which seemed reasonable to me , maybe it's 98%. That doesn't count rifles (not AR style) or shotguns. Strictly AR15 style one, what is the annual death toll? https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/04/26/what-the-data-says-about-gun-deaths-in-the-u-s/ Which types of firearms are most commonly used in gun murders in the U.S.? In 2020, the most recent year for which the FBI has published data, handguns were involved in 59% of the 13,620 U.S. gun murders and non-negligent manslaughters for which data is available. Rifles – the category that includes guns sometimes referred to as “assault weapons” – were involved in 3% of firearm murders. Shotguns were involved in 1%. The remainder of gun homicides and non-negligent manslaughters (36%) involved other kinds of firearms or those classified as “type not stated.” What share of U.S. gun deaths are murders and what share are suicides? Though they tend to get less public attention than gun-related murders, suicides have long accounted for the majority of U.S. gun deaths. In 2021, 54% of all gun-related deaths in the U.S. were suicides (26,328), while 43% were murders (20,958), according to the CDC. The remaining gun deaths that year were accidental (549), involved law enforcement (537) or had undetermined circumstances (458). that's exactly NOT what i wrote. Reading comprehension ma dude.

suppose all AR15 style guns are magically banned, how many lives will that save annually? We should do it, but the death by handgun is 90% of all gun deaths right?

the best thing to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy in a truck

could be, was in the field of fire and maybe even shot.

Suns won't win a game in Denver.

the AZ congresswoman was shot but nothing happened.

harden the daughters

watching a Rolan Martin video -- 75% of under 30 never vote. I'm guilty too when I was that age. That's victory if these 20s can be mobilized.

not easy though at full speed, most people only reverse when parking/leaving and at very slow speeds. that Denali truck was much more at fault for not doing anything.

the dashcam vehicle was moving away from the suspect silver Charger even before he got out, implying that the camera was in the back windshield and car was in no position (unless he reversed) to take Garcia out. The Denali truck OTOH...

rumors are that 3-4 other dead were a Chinese-American family, seems he was targeting minorities.

the black Denali truck that screeched out of the parking spot was closer and in the frontal position to take him out, but chickened it.

Bregs and Abreu need to be 7-8. Should have kept Yuli for cheap, 1 year deal, right?

neck tattoo on left side, but dead gunman has no neck tattoo on left side. However this pictured guy FB has this , which matches the hand tattoo of gunman

the first victim afaik has been named Christian LaCour Family confirms Christian LaCour, 20, was killed in yesterday's shooting at the #AllenOutletMall. The Farmersville resident worked as a security guard.

looking at uncovered pics of dead, light skinned, but could be Asians, but look white to me.

so why the F did he shoot up a mostly white part of town, with all white victims ?

gutsy game by beardman. Still have to win 1 in Boston WITH Embiid whose footwork is much more awkward than i had previously gauged. Bad hands too, old man Horford was stuffing him. Embiid just needs to shoot 3s, he's not that great in the paint - and to think claiming he's better than Hakeem

this is factual and was surprised to see that.

1 Billion guns isn't too far off, my guess is by 2050-2060.

the city services, well in the suburbs anyway, are run by very good people -- schools, first responders, construction, IT, parks and more - but these are not elected officials. A person has to be a demagogue to attract attention, a rhetorical lightning rod, to get elected.

because the lives of migrants are not difficult and stressful enough.
