    Guns save lives

    Local robbery attempt, local shooting, local story. Even if the robber had managed to shoot one customer it's still a local story. People are shot nearly every day in local robberies and the stories stay local.

    That she's smart enough to quickly raise a snotload of money by gaming the LGBT crowd? :joyful:

    problems with my portable A/C

    Well, first thing would be to plug it in to a regular household outlet somewhere. If it works there then things point to the generator. If it does the same thing then it's probably the AC unit itself.

    3588 lbs in Ram PM

    Being overweight in and of itself isn't unsafe - you'll have to do something unsafe to get you pulled over. Whether it's a car, van or a big truck, if you go slow enough, you can haul almost anything safely. Where it actually becomes illegal (except in states where they have laws on the books...

    POLL Which Sprinter engine - 4 or 6 cylinder in your opinion.

    Enough power for what? It won't be enough power for a testosterone-fueled, chest-beating woodie when driving up the side of a mountain in the Rockies, but it'll get the load where it needs to go.

    Welfare reform

    Not directly, no, but federal funding allows Planned Parenthood to divert money from programs which are not federally funded into abortion. If the federal and state funding stops, then either the abortion programs or the other programs stop, as they cannot fund both without it. And Planned...

    The Duggars

    Link, please. And please don't link to a hate speech law, as hate speech and obscenity laws are not the same. I've never heard of an obscenity law being applied to a cake, so I'm genuinely interested in learning about one. Tell it to the Amish. Communities have the right to set their own...

    Relentlessly [and of course, anonymously] stupid

    Yeah, well, the note makes some very specific capitalization errors, to emphasis words. That, of course, means nothing. Except, in her own social media postings, she writes the same exact way, making the same odd specific capitalization errors. The Internet can be pretty stupid and can fall for...

    Judge: Walmart Must Pay ALL Hours

    The article I posted has some good unforgiven in there. You'll see the dispute isn't over anything that can be transferred over to another driver or contractor.

    Welfare reform

    Ironically, in 1970 when Republican Richard Nixon signed into law the Title X amendment to the Public Health Service Act, liberals were all for it because increased access to contraception would give people and families more control over their lives, and conservatives were for it as a way to...

    Judge: Walmart Must Pay ALL Hours

    Here's a little more detailed information about it. http://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article23598463.html If the ruling stands and the jury goes against Walmart, then the layover pay will just up and disappear, since the drivers really aren't under any kind of company control during the 10...

    With car and truck batteries in the US, it's pretty much three: Delphi, Exide, and Johnson Controls.

    June in Load One land

    Just so you know, Autozone Duralast Gold batteries are the same as Sears Diehard batteries, and the same as Interstate batteries. They are made on the same line at Johnson Controls in San Antonio. (my brother's wife's sister is the head of Human Resources there, so if you need a job I can...

    Welfare reform

    Every single one that I've ever heard talk about entitlement spending. I don't feel like going and looking them up. No. I read it the first time, understood it, and still remember it.Go back and read my post where I noted that the word "entitlement" has long been the standard terminology for...
