Lions that eat humans should be shot...

Yes, that would be a reasonable thing to do.

I got into geology to do what he does. For thirty years, all I have done is sit behind a computer and work a mouse. And look out the window into urban squalor.

That is not what highsierra5 said. So let me give you the Africanized version:

"The only good lion is a dead lion".

I was making the differentiation.

Not all bears should be shot at once.

We want to make a sustainable harvest...

OK. One would have to admit that the Africans come to their point honestly.

Born 70 years ago we had TV and had TV the whole time with 6-7 channels. For me radio was for rock and roll (I did find Amos and Andy on my first portable radio once. It had tubes and the huge long 9v looking battery lasted around 1 night. This was in the late 50s)

You really wish to get a discussion going, ask:

Which is better:

Revolver or Semi-Auto?

.45 or 9mm?

10mm or .44 magnum?

AR15 or AK47?

Those will get a discussion going!

74 here, lived in NYC also but we didn’t get a TV until 1956 and even then we were strictly monitored. Wed. night, Disney and Father Knows Best was all we got during the week. No daytime TV, even weekends. No TV after 9 PM. Certain events were excepted at parental discretion.

Ordinary Russians were not allowed revolvers...

But party members were allowed, even encouraged, to have their own revolver or pistol...

The point wasn’t really about Russian gun laws...

I would have thought this would warrant this guy being charged with mass capital offenses these days.

Grew up in the Bronx. Dad was NYPD. Played in nice weather outside. After homework watched all the tv I could get. It was the cowboy shows on most channels. Also howdy doody etc. I thought I was going to be a cowboy until I realized that the Bronx wasn’t the place.
