    I'm an outlaw ?

    I don't know where you live or what that attorney's basis was for advising you to get rid of guns. That said, I'd get rid of the attorney and find a new one.

    surrounded by idiots

    There's never a shortage of idiots to go around. We had a Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card case around here recently. Fortunately, the suspect was kind enough to use his own rewards membership when he paid with someone else's card.

    SCOTUS replacement for RBG

    Sadly, that is no longer possible. The Democrats simply will not accept any nominee put forward by a Republican president, and vice versa. Trump could appoint Joe Biden himself and they'd immediately turn on him. (OK. That's partially in jest.)

    The attack on masculinity

    Men & boys have been under attack for decades now. I remember reading an article in the mid to late 1990s (which I could not find now if my life depended on it) that said that school age boys were diagnosed with ADD and ADHD at 4x the rate of girls. What that tells me is that "being a boy" is...

    Patriot Act II Domestic Terrorism

    I graduated law school in 2002, and there was a lot of talk about the Patriot Act as it was rammed through. The general consensus was "oh, crap."

    The End of Epstein

    And I think Jeff's question ("who took him off suicide watch and why?") is an excellent question.

    Leftist attack on Supreme Court

    That's one of the snottier briefs I've ever read.
