Most of this could be prevented if we just restored public hanging as a means of execution, and high-value fraud deserving of a death sentence. Hang a few dozen of these crooks and see the fraud level plummet. Crime stops only when criminals are afraid of the consequences of their action. Until then, they just laugh. They'll get a slap on the wrist and be out doing other crime in two to four years.
@AMAZlNGNATURE I've caught dozens of them, most about 3 or 4 feet long. The SMALLEST I've ever caught was about 8 inches, and totally transparent. They can do MAJOR damage to a spinning reel when you hit a big one.
@MOSSADil It's all backed by the Iranian mullocracy. There will never be peace in the Muddled East until the Religion that Cannot be Named quits trying to conquer the world through rogue activities. They don't WANT to live in peace with the rest of us. Destroy them or be destroyed.
@infantrydort During the Revolution, the people we now celebrate as patriots were also considered "bad people". I prefer to be lumped in with that particular group, rather than today's left-wing idiots.
@Ed50Ld10@SecScottBessent@realDonaldTrump Tell me why it isn't theirs. Know this: I majored in the History of the Middle East in college before the current crop of idiot professors took over. I KNOW the history. Do you? Really? Explain it to me in simple words, I don't have a PhD.
@usanewshq Patriotism never died, it was just driven underground for a bit. Yeah, it's back. It will persist as long as there are people who believe in the ideas of personal freedom and personal responsibility.
@BonginoReport@VinceCoglianese What's the over/under for how long before Iran "reinterprets" the deal, or just outright breaks it? I give it three days.
@infantrydort One of the things I loved most about my job in the Air
Force is that we didn't have to put up with that kind of BS - at least, not very often. The people that knew what we did and had access to our facilities were complementary, the rest were excluded.
@compliantvc After Europe goes bankrupt next month, Elon can pick it up with pocket change. Of course, I don't have a clue why he would WANT to buy Europe, not the shape it's currently in. Even pocket change would be too much.
@libsoftiktok@RepJasmine Jasmine Crockett is the only member of Congress that gives AOC a run for their money in negative IQ points. I quit listening to her except for chuckles and grins.
@varadmehta The Constitution says judges will sit "in good behavior". Congress needs to define what that means. There is nothing in the Constitution or the Federalist Papers about life tenure. Time to correct that reading by the judiciary. Also that they cannot be held responsible.
@BonginoReport I hope so, but I doubt it. Trump doesn't understand the Arab mindset. They can't negotiate in good faith - that shows weakness, and Arabs can NEVER show weakness. Their society is its own worst enemy. ANY weakness WILL be exploited by all and sundry. Trump need to end this war.
@catturd2 Where's the D-9? That's what's really needed to remove this trash.
These people are both childish and stupid. They deserve whatever they get. My sympathy meter broke during the Clinton years.
@Osint613 I can shoot from my back yard and say I "targeted Tehran", but that doesn't mean I've actually done any good. Keep building up the negative karma, the bus is on its way.
