Nonlethal methods to subdue should be used when the suspect or person in question isn’t pointing a gun at the police. When that person is pointing a gun, any nonlethal method will not beat the bullet from the suspect’s gun, so no, expecting a police officer to try to “beat the bullet” by using a nonlethal method isn’t

He had a gun. Get real.

Let’s not mix apples and oranges and mix up police officers shooting unarmed black men and young kids of any race, with police officers shooting someone who is pointing a gun at them, including a toy gun that could be real. From a distance, it isn’t fair to expect a policeman to be able to figure out exactly what kind

Well, now, there was Lincoln.....FDR.....at least two of the others who had to deal with crap even worse than Obama inherited. So let’s say he’s in the top three

Something I’m pretty sure will never happen to Donald Trump, who appears to be much more familiar with the use of hair dye than...well, pretty much anyone, actually, since his hair is a color not found in nature on a man his age

Or my farmer uncle, whose wife contracted lupus. After awhile, he couldn’t afford to pay her medical bills any more. So he was advised to divorce her — she’d then be penniless with no assets, and could get her healthcare via Medicaid.

Oh, God. Not the “access” dodge again. Everyone has “access” to healthcare — just like everyone has “access” to buying a $40 million penthouse apartment in New York City. I mean, no one’s legally prohibiting you from buying it. But if you don’t have the money to buy it, what good is the “access.” It’s not “access” to

“Waiting until you are sick and going to the ER” is also shitty for the hospitals and is one of the things that drives up healthcare costs — does the GOP think the hospital just eats those costs? They allocate them across all the paying patients, driving up the cost of their healthcare, and ultimately, everyone’s

Kate and Leopold — Hugh Jackman as an eminently civilized man in NYC with a modern woman, Meg Ryan, who decided she’d prefer to follow him back to the 1800's and live in that age as a “real woman.” Ick. But man did he look good.

Dear DHS: Talk to the parents of any random high school student....You know, the people who tell their kids that they want to monitor their social media accounts. The kids invent fake ones and tell their parents those are the real ones, then use the real, real ones to communicate with their friends.

Attention Homeland Security: Talk to the parents of any random high school student, the people who insist on monitoring their kid’s social media accounts. What do the kids do? They invent fake social media accounts and tell their parents those are the real ones.

How about just a guarantee of no sexual molestation by faculty? That seems to be a bigger issue at most boarding schools....

Supposedly, he was actually turning around to say something to Ivanka, just behind Melania — at first, she thought he was actually speaking to her and treating her like a human being for once. Then, when she realized he’d been ignoring her (as usual) and speaking to his daughter (ditto) her face fell

Not much weight

Oh, honey. He made her sign an ironclad prenup, I’m sure.


Because it takes a “real man” to take down that particular ferocious predator.

I don’t think so.

I would say the fact that they had to make this illegal IS the problem. We are actually at the point of having to say out loud: “Do not put naked photos of someone on the internet when you don’t have that person’s permission.” I mean, isn’t that in the category of “Nobody told me not to paint the baby. So I did”? This
