The cops tried to talk him down for a while then tackled him and forcibly cuffed him. They are being criticized for not finding a nonviolent way to deal with a crazed drug addict. Cops can’t win with liberals.

The gun-grabbing SJWs and David Hogg et al. finally got taken off the front page/headline news when Anthony Borges, the student who took 5 bullets saving countless other students' lives was released from the hospital. Mr. Borges went public making a statement - let's just say the school administration and the Broward County Sheriff Israel and others didn't fair well in his statement.

One can only hope.<br /><br />Art Bell was probably a government plant spreading disinformation. He’s probably not even really dead. If he ever was really alive…<br /><br />Home-made bomb supply store, Ace Hardware, has resumed advertising on the Laura Ingraham show. Also, SNL made fun of her, meaning her share will probably spike. Meanwhile, David Hogg is still not in talks for his own show.<br /><br />I’m frankly surprised I haven’t seen a slew of think pieces about the racist origins of loitering laws. Or overpriced coffee. <br /><br />Trump is the most incompetent president ever. Thank goodness there are competent people calling the <i>real</i> shots, by which I neither mean the “deep state” nor am implying that Trump made any good hiring decisions. <br /><br />I’m beginning to think that Richard Nixon was the last honest man to hold the office of the presidency.<br /><br />Every person who ever saw <i>Wag the Dog</i> is now perpetually stuck on thinking every new distraction is a just a distraction from the previous distraction. <br />tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-74161661465180216222018-04-16T10:46:46.791-04:002018-04-16T10:46:46.791-04:00Hey Critch, It's a small island close to the e...Hey Critch, It's a small island close to the equator.

Still, I think this is a one off.<br /><br />2) Bell's death is inconsequential. Nowadays one can't turn around without tripping over a half dozen conspiracy theorists.<br /><br />3) Regarding the Parkland survivors, Advertisers fled Laura Ingraham after her comments but her ratings (unsurprisingly) have held up so others will step into the breach.<br /><br />4) Is 'blah blah, wah wah' a direct Trump quote?<br /><br />5) A special prosecutor going far beyond his original remit is as predictable as rain on a cloudy day.<br /><br />6) A high level former employee going off on Trump happens pretty much every day that ends in 'y' (it helps that Trump makes a new one every week or two). Its fun to watch but it rarely means anything. <br /><br />Like Bill Clinton, everyone knows Trump is corrupt, a liar and a womanizer, but like Clinton that means charges of corruption, lying and womanizing don't alter who his enemies and friends are.<br /><br />7) The Syria strike was surprisingly conventional. While my respect for Trump is low, I doubt the notion that he staged the strike to distract from domestic troubles. That would be like trying to distract a dog from a steak he is in the middle of eating by waving a flower.<br /><br />8) Its good that Paul Ryan is retiring. His heart clearly wasn't in Trumpism. If Republicans retain the majority, I'm sure the next speaker will be all in for Trump. That coupled with Trump's renowned skill at making deals (he told us about it in a book, so I'm sure its true) will no doubt translate into a lot of bills being passed.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16124128949343301445noreply@blogger.com
