It’s at its worst in narrow parking lots. For some reason, these generally tiny people buy these YUGE SUV’s and drive like nuts through the lanes. Wild!

Yes, the big tall guy w/mustache was on the elevator footage today when Kanye came back down with Trump. He’s the most recognizable one.

He said he would have voted for Trump at a concert and next day in the ward he goes :)

Liberals are saying we have to censor people whom the left threatens to riot against.

Volokh noted how such policy is divergent from the Supreme Court’s condemnation of the “Heckler’s Veto”:

“Sometimes the government says: ‘We need to suppress this guy who’s speaking on the street corner because we’re afraid somebody will get so upset at him that they’ll throw a punch, or worse.’ There, the Court says ‘Nope, you can’t do that.’ You can’t allow hecklers to essentially force the suppression of a person’s speech by threatening violence. You need to protect the speaker against the violence rather than suppressing the speaker.”

” studies finance at Baruch College”

I just took a calculator and a pad of paper to my finance class. Must be a tough course.

"But why a large firecracker?"

Why, to celebrate the Chinese New Year, of course....although the holiday isn't till the end of January.

BTW, 2016 is the Year of the Monkey, according to the Chinese calendar. So he can claim he was just "monkeying around"....and if you don't believe that, you're an anti-Asiatic racist and a white supremist, to boot.

A SWISS army knife? THAT’S a combat weapon?! No telling what he might do with the corkscrew or magnifying glass attachment *shiver*! He might have pared the Donald’s nails.

You just discussed it! Oh, no! Quick! Marry Donald and then run for President sixteen years later! You can do that now even if you’re a boy.

No, I think they were talking about the hunting knife that they found.

A garrote is any piece of wire, string, jewelry chain, plastic strip used to hold newspapers in a bundle, or other object that will serve to strangle somebody to death.

So, was it a garrote, or a piece of wire? There’s a difference.

Other than the handcuffs and maybe the M-100, you can probably find most all of those things in nearly everyone’s houses.
