That’s a defense the proprietors of the shop can make in court if they choose to contest that particular violation.

What is the mindset where you hear a story about a neglectful asshole who LEAVES A CHILD TO SLOWLY AND PAINFULLY SWELTER TO DEATH IN A CAR ….and you come up with all sorts of excuses to defend the scumbag who left their kid to die?

I don't get that at all 

Absolutely

My objection to prettifying suicide with euphemisms still stands

Dude COMMITTED SUICIDE

He KILLED HIMSELF

He didn’t “die by suicide”

I agree he was a simpering coward who didn’t want to face the consequences of his acts of terrorism - that’s why he took the coward’s way out and COMMITTED SUICIDE

So the article is wrong 

They’re actually very similar, which is why nobody cares but the gun clutchers 

It actually is semantics, chum.

Nobody cares outside of a gun range 

Nobody cares, gun clutcher

the point is, civilians have no business with such a weapo

Nobody cares, gun clutcher

Maybe to the mouthbreathers on the gun range “iT’s An aSSaUlT RIFFEle!”

Some of them would even get butthurt about you using that term (the guy who owned the gun range I used to shoot at certainly would)

But, if you were a suburban Bay Area mom at that garlic festival, and somebody had shot your kid with that weapon,…

I spend a LOT of time reading old legal documents for my job

Most of these particular documents are handwritten

Spending three years trying to read other people’s handwriting - many of them long dead, so it’s not like I can send them an email and ask them what they wrote - has made me really appreciate legible…

They sold a machine gun to a spree killer

So they deserve public scorn 

You mean he committed suicide?

I’m really not with this “died by suicide” euphemism - especially for some racist spree killer asshole who took the coward’s way out when the cops came to arrest him. 

That....all sounds pretty normal 

How long a violating condition has existed is not a defense - it’s still a violation.

There’s an obscenity exemption to the First Amendment -and “Eat Me” has a clear sexual connotation 

What exactly does President Trump have to do with code enforcement by a city building code inspector in a small town in California?

What part of “federal republic” do you not understand?

Lodi is in San Joaquin County, which is majority Democrat, in a dark blue state, California - and the city itself has a non partisan…

It’s actually not bad handwriting at all - it’s clear and legible 

What’s wrong with her handwriting?

It’s clear and legible - the most you can ask from handwriting

The crew member who was bit wanted to keep his job, so of course he “apologized”....to the star of the show, who’s dog attacked him. 

Is that Broadway Junction in East New York?
