If he gets appointed to the supreme court he will be Justice Justice.
If I was Donald Trump I think I’d do it for no other reason than that.
I was hooked by the bizarre logic and black comedy of Catch-22 the first time I read it, at about age 12. I’ve re-read it every couple of years since then. Twenty-plus readings later, I am still not bored by it.
Justice, squared....I am all for that!
I found it to be a leftist fantasy against Western Civilization, using the randomness and chaos of war to give it a bit of plausibility.
I took it, and still take it, as a satirical send-up of government bureaucracy using the military, and the chaos of war, to better illustrate how it is fundamentally harmful to freedom, particularly individual freedom.
In South Louisiana, "Major" is a common surname in my home parish (Pointe Coupee). A member of the National Guard unit from Pointe Coupee of that surname held the enlisted rank of "Sergeant-Major".
Hence:
Sergeant-Major Major
And that NOT a hypothetical...but the absolute truth.
Yes, it is satire. Kind of like Mash was satire.
I recall one Doctor veteran of Korea who absolutely hated Mash with a passion, because it showed such a false representation of reality.
Catch-22 has made its way into the American lexicon. I admit that is not all bad.
Rightness!
This Ping List is for all things pertaining to the 2nd Amendment.
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.

He is a rabid lib. I Spent 5 years living in the same town.
We’ve had a similar law in Alabama since 2013. Hoplophobic HR cat ladies HATE such laws. Of course, people did it anyway before the law. Not that I kept my guns locked in my truck before that. No sir :-O
Will this protect a person from being cited while having a firearm locked in his/her car while in/on a VA Hospital lot? or other Federal Property parking lot? Like a National Park?
Thanks.
That’s probably related to their abysmally low homicide clearance rate, around 15% for 2018.
Lower right here:

A nice place to visit (like ANY Tourist Town) but I wouldn’t want to live there!
