I wasn't sure if I called it or not.

And, yeah.  You should get one of those weight lifting belts now, to help hold your spleen in as you screech out laughter for the rest of your days.

That old lady that got gassed?  Yeah, I had a special kind of laugh that night.  It wasn't really a nice laugh.  It sounded like the devil burping.

Next, they'll have the national guard start shooting people on the docks in Oakland and/or Seattle.  Or maybe the cops will just do it.  And there'll be a lot of "regret" over it, and the president will say what a shame it all is, and then the police and/or national guard will investigate themselves and find that it was a justified - if regrettable - incident.

And two days later, nobody will remember anything about it, because some kid will go missing in California, or some other "people story" will hit the news.

The end.

No functional difference anymore, anyway.  When the cops have tanks and heavy weapons, they might as well be soldiers.  In fact, I think soldiers would probably be more hesistant about using such things in a civilian setting, on American soil.

Guys, bear with me here but-

What if we all joined the police.

I don't just mean us. I mean everybody.
Then they'd have send the military, and we repeat the whole thing. This process goes on until we are all the President.

After that, we have to choice but to keep it up. We have to keep upping the stakes until we're all popes or something.

QuoteThe Los Angeles Times reports that police in North Dakota this past summer made what are believed to be the first arrests of U.S. citizens with the help of a Predator spy drone.

QuoteLocal police said they have also used Predators for at least two dozen surveillance flights in recent months. From the LAT:

The drones belong to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which operates eight Predators on the country's northern and southwestern borders to search for illegal immigrants and smugglers. The previously unreported use of its drones to assist local, state and federal law enforcement has occurred without any public acknowledgment or debate.

Wow wow wow.

The article mentions that the sheriff was chased off of a family farm and doesn't mention anything about what the sheriff was there for.
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

A little digging. There were some missing cows, and a potential misdemeanor charge which became felony charges for "terrorizing a Sheriff".

Well, that about kills the last remaining Old West.

Not really.

The old West had some harsh fucking laws that didn't even give lip service to the constitution.  It also had weird fuckers that just didn't care.  Nowadays, we have harsh fucking laws that don't even give lip service to the constitution, and weird motherfuckers that just don't care.

So the Old West has some high tech.

As long as there are drive-by shootings and dead people in dumpsters, the Old West is alive and well. 

Fun fact:  Almost every "gun fight" in the Old West involved someone getting shot in the back, or while in bed, etc.  The number of "classic gunfights" as the general public understands them could be described in a few minutes, and most of them involved the same 3-4 guys.  Most of whom wound up getting shot in the back.

Thing is, the backstabbing bastards that were the norm make people like Wild Bill Hickock even cooler by comparison.  He was the real fucking deal.

That's because you've been backsliding, Nigel.  You've lost your Slack™.  You can't see The Wall™.  There's been time for everything...Everything except FUN and "Bob" and Saturday Night.  You've allowed yourself to become concerned with shit like "HEY!  WHO'S DRIVING THIS DAMN THING?" and "WHY IS THERE NOBODY IN THE COCKPIT?" and "HOLY SHIT!  I'M ON THE PLANET OF THE APES!"

And until you fix that, you will be lost, LOST I SAY, like the Chicago Bears.  REPENT, THERE'S STILL TIME!
