Infiltrated all aspects of society even at Liverpool FC where Mo Salah has made LFC an Islamist football club
One hopes that JD was being tongue-in-cheek but you never know. With the Hillbilly Elegian as the running mate I guess we could call it the Deliverance ticket...
those guys don't say thing like that tongue in cheek. he related his comment to the fact Labour had just won the UK election.
Edit: It seems range was 120m which makes the shooter really not very good at all. I also read he did not make the cut for his high school shooting team.
I know sweet fa about guns, range etc., but even I know that not being able to hit the target from essentially the distance of a football field means you should stick to Call Of Duty.
The average person is not a trained or "half-decent" marksman, nor a "good sniper" - they (av Joe) are people who will be lucky to hit a central target size (approx a head) at 200-300 metres without good practice - but this was only 100 approx, I believe - so, pretty bad shot if the weapon was accurate...
Agree. But begs the question, why would he choose this method if he's not very good at it? Way more likely to hit people other than the target. Which is what happened.
Who knows...? We'd have to doubt that his thought process was completely rational in the lead-up to his action.
Reminiscent of Germany in the '30's ? Or Mad Max beyond Thunderdome? 1813350459966472500 is not a valid tweet id
thanks for asking bayred. it was really bad in parts, but I live at the very east-end of Toronto and the rain here was pretty strong but zero flooding anywhere near me. it hit the west and downtown for the most part. did you see the video of Drake's mansion getting flooded? he's about a 20-minute drive from my place (so he tells me). the house is only a few years old as well. https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/16/weather/video/video-appears-to-show-drakes-mansion-flooded-digvid I hope the guy is OK and manages to recover
This has actually been one of the most diverse and overall good spirited conventions I've ever seen from the RNC. There's always cringe stuff in all political parties and a good helping of fear of the other side being elected; but this has a different vibe to it. Maybe it was the assassination attempt or the fact that the Democrats are self-destructing in front of everyone's eyes. (the Lincoln Project is the biggest f ucking joke at this point, by the way. Who honestly takes them seriously except for Dems who have their head so far up their own ass?)
Biden has Covid and will self isolate in DE. Not great timing given the RNC convention this week. I wonder if the conspiracy theorists will jump on this to claim that Biden's health will cause him to bow out of the race.
yep, it might give him cover to step aside. interesting that Gavin Newsom has been silent recently (AFAIK). playing it smart?
Biden is done one way or the other. But 78 year old Trump - despite being a criminal, a rapist, one of the worst businessmen of all time, who is also clearly in cognitive decline and wears diapers - we are all behind him because he will make everything great!* *checks 401K - oh it's doing fantastic? He will make it greaterer!!
All that Trump trash talk is fine but right now it looks like he's your next president unless the Dems get their act together and run someone with more voter appeal.
