Well...in order for Red Flag laws to work... Wisconsin would have to have them.
But yeah you'd think that hey the guy showed up at the Capitol with a gun maybe not let him out the same day but that's just me...

Yeah, I wasn't sure if Wisconsin had them but I always remember that that's what the GOP always says every time a Democrat wants new gun legislation passed.

Like two weeks ago you were advocating for someone to be allowed a firearm for self-defense on this very board. So are you gonna tell that person to just carry a knife/mace then?

No, I was advocating for committing the highest available level of violence against that jerk. If the shooter had had a vial of sarin gas, I would have supported him using that. Any tool to hand.

As a general principle, I am for removing the pew pews from the small d-cks, and until we start tagging rights to political affiliation that means removing them from everyone. I advocate allowing the victim in the derp stalking case to beat that guy to death with a chair.

I am all for lethal violence. I just want it to be targeted, intimate, and limited to one person at a time who I deem deserves it.

Simple, reasonable, predictable, and fair.

First poll for a NJ Dem Senate primary

Kim: 43%
Murphy: (the Governor's wife?): 19%
Menendez: 5%

Or
Kim:63%
Menendez: 10%

Go away, Bob.
 
It bugs me a bit that the GQP insanity has swept this news story aside. Yeah, he'll lose next year and the DOJ doesn't give a hot shit if the Republicans are busy hanging themselves.

But get this corrupt piece of garbage out of the Senate.
 
Imagine the guy who fixes your HVAC running your county's health department.

That's who Ottawa County just submitted to the state as an Interim Health Department director.

All plans to relocate back to Holland are suspended until Ottawa Impact is out.

We even have some of that in the crazier corners of our state: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/sep/28/california-shasta-county-far-right-mosquito-vaccine

Ever since the far-right movement in California’s Shasta county gained control of local government, they have sought to throw out voting machines in favor of hand counting and pledged to defend the second amendment using all “lawful means”.

This week they focused their efforts on a new target: mosquitoes.

The Shasta county board of supervisors appointed Jon Knight, a hydroponics store owner and prominent figure in the local far-right movement, to serve on the board of the public health agency responsible for managing the insects, instead of the county’s former public health director, an epidemiologist.

The move showcased the ultra-conservative movement’s growing foothold in local government. An appointment to a local government board typically attracts little attention, but in Shasta county, which became a hotbed for far-right politics and fringe-thinking in the pandemic years, it was the subject of extensive discussion at a recent meeting of the county’s governing board.

Some supporters of Knight’s shared mosquito conspiracy theories at the meeting, implying US officials planned to forcibly vaccinate people with the insects. “I don’t trust our government,” one woman said. “Bill Gates is a part of this … These mosquitoes are going to be flying syringes.”

The Gates Foundation has funded research into attempts to create mosquitoes that can deliver a malaria vaccine into humans, efforts that fringe groups have sought to paint as a nefarious campaign to inoculate people against their will.

For those who don't know, Shasta is the part of CA that has Idaholism. Sublime scenery; garbage rightwing population (albeit with a smattering of ancient, smelly hippies - not sure there are hippies in Coeur d'Alene).
 
I’m a bit jealous, all they do here is try to ban books in the libraries (and they can’t even do that).

Edit: As a resident in a city that had the far-right crazies try to take over (they got their mayor elected but have repeatedly failed to elect assembly members to break a veto-proof majority) just wait because they’ll quickly turn on each other when things don’t go their way immediately.

Ah yes, Shasta. I have a distant relative out there who lives in a trailer. Posts Facebook memes all day about how hunter and Hilary need to be locked up, then will post about how people need to be more loving and less divisive.

they also have a gay child and constantly post about how poor they are.

There are parts of NoCal that are culturally indistinguishable from rural Romania.

It's like what if Kentuckians were vegetarian and anti-nuclear.
