    It wasn't malpractice. It was about 20k cases of criminally negligent homicide. Reckless disregard of human life.

    2 charged after found with around 180,000 rounds of ammo during traffic stop

    All the stuff that law enforcement seizes in the US amounts to "shrink" for the cartels. They budget for it the same way Walmart budgets for shoplifting. And it has about as much chance of making a dent in their sales.

    Pretty sure the plan was to sell it to a cartel. Assuming they aren't just employees shipping it *for* the cartel.

    Trump DOJ Appeals Decision Affirming That Machine Guns are Protected by 2A

    Any decision that doesn't get to SCOTUS is temporary at best. We don't *want* them to drop it. We want them to run it all the way up and get it overturned at SCOTUS.

    Trump DOJ Appeals Decision Affirming That Machine Guns are Protected by 2A

    But they *are*. There are hundreds of thousands of them in use in the US. Many police departments have them, even if you dont count the ones registered to private citizens, the LEO use alone is enough to make them "common".

    For people who aren't legal residents, it is zero. You can argue that is wrong (and i would), it is currently the law.l and has been for a while.

    Massachusetts Couple Accused of ‘Kidnapping’ Their Own Five Children from State Custody

    I think your entire first paragraph could be summarized as "tyranny". You're not wrong. Every one of those grievances needs to be eliminated before we can really call ourselves a "free people".

    Latecia James, indicted!

    She may not be well enough connected to be insulated. She could well end up being the sacrificial hippo. They can't go after the epstein list because *important* people are on it. She's not that important.

    Rockets have been flying from Syria into Isreali cities consistently for decades. That's an act of war no matter how you cut it. Either the people launching the rockets had a wink-and-a-nod approval from the Syrian government, or the Syrian government was just incapable of stopping them. It...

    Massachusetts Couple Accused of ‘Kidnapping’ Their Own Five Children from State Custody

    Yea, but if the state was a family it would absolutely have all it's kids taken away. OfC, no state would ever pass a BGC to buy a gun either. Seems a but hypocritical for the state to hold people to a higher standard than it holds itself.

    Massachusetts Couple Accused of ‘Kidnapping’ Their Own Five Children from State Custody

    Just because not all kids being abuse are being removed doesn't mean that no kids who aren't being abused are being removed. They can be terrible and have both false positives *and* false negatives. Probably just depends on what bureaucrat gets assigned to a particular case. The system is...

    I wasn't thinking percentage, but raw numbers. Every state in the union probably thousands of kids being abused right now. There is no family with thousands of kids.

    Massachusetts Couple Accused of ‘Kidnapping’ Their Own Five Children from State Custody

    Simple math. We have all read news stories about kids getting abused in state custody (and I'd like to remind you that the foster system counts as state custody). There are easily more reports there than there are kids in even the largest family. Here's a single example from a single site...

    Man with Pistol Brace Charged!

    But there isn't a law against pistol braces. The ATF just decided in their own one day to make one. Despite them not being part of the legislative branch. And their excuse is that the law passed by congress is ambiguous about braces, so they can do what they want. I *really* want to see...

    Does anyone have any experience with the KALTEC PR57?

    The one thing you can say for Kel-Tec. They're not afraid to think out of the box on a manual of arms. Was looking at their P50 that takes PS90 mags on Saturday. The mag is, no joke, sandwiched in the middle of the receiver. You break the rifle open to swap mags...

    Or, maybe they'll find that Isreal treats it's citizens better than Assad did and like it. There are lots of Arabs living in Isreal who like it. Or, maybe the government that forms in the rest of Syria won't be a complete piece of shit and Isreal will give the land back, like they did to Egypt...

    Lead isn't really *that* nasty that you need to go full hazmat. Wash your hands and don't overheat the pot and you're probably good. Those of us from Gen X and earlier probably got more lead from burning leaded gasoline than you would from a lifetime of casting it. We all have a lot of...

    The way the tarrifs are structured isn't based on a trade imbalance for a single commodity. They are based on trade imbalance for the whole country. Obviously if we are importing major quantities of *any* commodity from you we are unlikely to be exporting much of that commodity. I doubt we...

    We have heavily leveraged our position as the world's reserve currency. As long as it remains the reserve, we can basically get away with anything.

    A year is probably reasonable for petty vandalism like keying the car. They're assholes, but a year in jail may be enough to teach them. 5-10 for the arsonist is probably a bit light, I'd certainly like to see more for a violent crime like that. But realistically I think we'll be lucky to...
