@UPS I have lost 3 packages to your Elkhart facility. Different retailers. Pkgs are scanned in there, marked as processing, and then just NEVER move. Does anyone work at this location???

Yeah. Charlie Kirk did say, "I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights."

Here's the full quote:

“Yeah, it's a great question. Thank you. So, I'm a big Second Amendment fan but I think most politicians are cowards when it comes to defending why we have a Second Amendment. This is why I would not be a good politician, or maybe I would, I don't know, because I actually speak my mind.

The Second Amendment is not about hunting. I love hunting. The Second Amendment is not even about personal defense. That is important. The Second Amendment is there, God forbid, so that you can defend yourself against a tyrannical government. And if that talk scares you — "wow, that's radical, Charlie, I don't know about that" — well then, you have not really read any of the literature of our Founding Fathers. Number two, you've not read any 20th-century history. You're just living in Narnia. By the way, if you're actually living in Narnia, you would be wiser than wherever you're living, because C.S. Lewis was really smart. So I don't know what alternative universe you're living in. You just don't want to face reality that governments tend to get tyrannical and that if people need an ability to protect themselves and their communities and their families.

Now, we must also be real. We must be honest with the population. Having an armed citizenry comes with a price, and that is part of liberty. Driving comes with a price. 50,000, 50,000, 50,000 people die on the road every year. That's a price. You get rid of driving, you'd have 50,000 less auto fatalities. But we have decided that the benefit of driving — speed, accessibility, mobility, having products, services — is worth the cost of 50,000 people dying on the road. So we need to be very clear that you're not going to get gun deaths to zero. It will not happen. You could significantly reduce them through having more fathers in the home, by having more armed guards in front of schools. We should have a honest and clear reductionist view of gun violence, but we should not have a utopian one.

You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death. That is nonsense. It's drivel. But I am, I, I — I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe.

So then, how do you reduce? Very simple. People say, oh, Charlie, how do you stop school shootings? I don't know. How did we stop shootings at baseball games? Because we have armed guards outside of baseball games. That's why. How did we stop all the shootings at airports? We have armed guards outside of airports. How do we stop all the shootings at banks? We have armed guards outside of banks. How did we stop all the shootings at gun shows? Notice there's not a lot of mass shootings at gun shows, there's all these guns. Because everyone's armed. If our money and our sporting events and our airplanes have armed guards, why don't our children?”

This is for Kfir and Ariel.

Share this 🟧 in support of the Bibas family.

May their memory be a blessing.

[Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis @chiefrabbi]

It is pure evil to take a mother and her young children and an elderly man hostage.
It takes another layer of evil to be responsible for their deaths.
And yet a further layer of evil to trade their bodies to release hundreds of prisoners including terrorists serving life sentences for murder.
This is what Israel is up against.
Today, all decent people around the world mourn with Israel, Kibbutz Nir Oz, and the Bibas and Lifshitz families.
With broken hearts, we pray for the return of all the hostages and a just and lasting peace.
עם ישראל חי!

Jason Kelce talking about the importance of fathers in his retirement speech: "I think one of the best things a person can be in this world is a father. A father who is present, devoted, and loving is the greatest gift a child could ask for in our society."

I was just about to post about him when this sad news came out.

Joshua Mollel, one of two Tanzanians taken hostage by Hamas, has been murdered by Hamas terrorists.

Joshua arrived in Israel just a couple of weeks before the October 7 attacks to study agriculture.

Loitu Mollel, Joshua's father, gave a heartbreaking interview to the BBC in October, sharing that he wasn't sleeping or eating to the point where people at his local market noticed how thin he had become.

Joshua's first trip out of Tanzania was his flight to Israel in September.

Joshua's father (photo on the right) said the last time he spoke to his son was on October 5, telling him, "Be on your best behavior because you're somewhere new, and make the most of the internship you're there to do."

Joshua’s father said that his son’s dream was to return to Tanzania after studying in Israel and become one of the most successful farmers in Tanzania.

Joshua is the second Tanzanian citizen to be murdered by Hamas; the other is Clemence Felix Mtenga. Clemence’s family was notified in November that he had been murdered.
